REVIEW
One of the "must" spots for southern
California operators visiting Los Angeles is
the Cinematone Corporation in Hollywood
where the new Penny•Phonos are now com-
ing off the production line. The spot is a
riot of activity with operators clamoring to
get the first machines.
Eric Wedemeyer, New York, spent some
time in August with Fred Reilly going over
the merchandise and digger situation locally.
A jaunt to the S. F. Fair rounded out his
coast activities.
When it comes to really taking a vacation
L. C. Gilman of Decca has the right idea.
When his vacation period rolled around he
packed his grips and hied off to Laguna
Beach to rest and enjoy a real vacation. A
bit of bathing, fish tussling and strolls up
and down the strand broke up the sameness
of each day.
Since E. C. McNeil has acquired a home
on wheels the world is his home. Labor
Day found him with a couple of operators
enjoying the beauties of Lake Tahoe.
Hugh Eyerly, Gardner salesboard impres•
ario on the coast, breezed into Los An-
geles in mid-August to share sighs with the
boys.
Roy Bazelon, Monarch Coin Machine
head of Chicago, returned to the windy city
last week after an enjoyable rest on the
coast.
The Sunset Bowling Alleys, 52 of 'em,
have captured the fancy of Los Angeles

operators and a number of the lads limber
up there nightly.
Fred Reilly, of diggers, spent some time
in San Francisco during August.
William Rabkin, New York International
Mutoscope Reel president, visited his two
sons in Arizona in August and came on to
the coast for a look-see at the Fair and a
visit with the coast operators.

" Whirling Derby"
New Gay Idea
MUNCIE, IND. - "Whirling Derby" is
the name of a new idea in coupon games
introduced to operators recently by Gay
Games, headed by Guy E. Noel.
The new idea has proven to be the
acme of perfection and affords operators
and distributors a new display setting that
has innumerable features never before of-
fered in any form. It practically eliminates
loss of coupons by theft and it offers a
greater selection of coupons to players re•
suiting in even faster play than jar games.
It is small, compact, neat and modern in
every respect.
"Operators who are using jar deals or
have used them in the past will find that
any refill and jack pot card in our line may
be had in 'Whirling Derby' style," says Guy
Noel. "Whirling Derby went through weeks
of preparation before it was declared ready
and it was first offered for sale. Initial
orders from hundreds of operators through-
out the country are coming in and the re-
peat business on this new sensation has
been tremendous and has caused the plant
to operate on a 24-hour schedule.
"The 'Whirling Derby' has been trade-
marked and all patentabl~ features have
been reserved to insure all operators of re-
ceiving the original and first game of this
kind to reach the market," Noel Gon-
cluded.

South Jersey Amusement
Machine Association
By Harry Bortnick
Maintaining headquarters in Camden,
N. J., this organization was recently re•
vived after a Supreme Court decision le-
galized coin machine operations in the
State. The group is now making a strong
drive for members in its area.
At the origination of the case before the
Supreme Court, instigated as a test suit by
the Association, the organization had a
strong and powerful membership. Ted
Marks was President and helped make the
organization a strong, compact body. How-
ever, the suit took several months and op-
erators drifted apart and the Association
ceased to function .
Now with the legalization of the coin
machines and the steady influx of many
operators the Association is again function-
ing smoothly, and many operators have
again affiliated with the organization. Each
member has been asked to help enlist other
operators into the group, and the member-
ship lfst has been considerably increased
during recent weeks, Ted Marks, secretary-
♦
treasurer, declared.
