ST. :LOUIS
ST: LOUIS-Spring weather injected
new life into the activities of the coin ma-
chine industry in St. Louis and surrounding
territory and resulted in a renewal 'of social
events that had to be postponed for the
duration of the Lenten season. Lee Turner
of the Mound City Sales Co. arrived in town
from a trip that took him thru the southern
states and a month long stay in Florida.
It was not altogether a vacation trip for
Turner as he has business interests down
in sunny Florida. Andy McCall, head of the
McCall Novelty Co. was gone from St. Louis
in late March on a survey of rural routes.
On his return McCall reported a feeling of
optimism exists in the minds of outs tate
operators in regards to route operation
during the coming season. Dale Rymer,
manager of the Missouri Tavern Supply
Co. of Springfield, Missouri, had his tire
problem solved in an unexpected manner.
A thief took his car from a parking lot
when Dale was making a call on his route.
Carl Trippe of the Ideal Novelty Co.
announced that he will open a modern
Arcade at Chain of Rocks Park, popular
amusement center for Missourians on May
1. The Arcade will represent an investment
of around $10,000, says Trippe. The entire
physical layout of the establishment will
carry a Mother Goose motif with simulated

PHOTOGRAPHY
peppermint sticks and colorful character,
out of nursery rhymes depicted. Fluorescent
red, white and blue lights have been in-
stalled thruout. This latest Arcade will
bring to a total of twelve the number of
Arcades that are operated by Trippe during
the summer season. Four Arcades are lo-
cated at service men's U.s.O. centers where
all the newest equipment is provided for
the boys in service at a maximum of one
cent play. One half of the receipts are
turned back to the U.S.O. fund thereby
making the operation of the four Arcad es
on a non-profit basis. It is Ideal's way of
contributing to the morale of our soldiers.
Walter Hartwig and Bill Paule are two
members of the coin machine industry who
have gone into the armed forces and would
welcome correspondence from their many
friends in the industry. Address mail to
Private Walter Hartwig, Company Head-
quarters, 27th Engineers, Fort Buchanan,
Puerto Rico, and William Arthur Paule,
Torpedoman Third Class, Naval Torpedo
School, Newport, Rhode Island.
The Olive Novelty Co. had its busi'-
ness routine interrupted by events of a
pleasant nature recently when Clarence
Hart appeared at work and announced the
arrival at the Hart domi cile of a new baby
girl. Th e excitement at hearing of this event
had hardly subsided when an express man
delivered a crate of orapges and _~ case of

grapefruit shipped from Miami, Florida.
The afternoon mail brought three novelty
jewelry gifts for members of the office
force and Mrs. Ben Axelrod. It finally de-
veloped that the unexpected presents were
from Jack Mehl, Ben Axelrod and Al
Haneklau who are now at this firm's Miami
branch.
It is a relief to members of the industry
to see the rapid recovery of Vernon Holt
of Olive Novelty who was involved in a
serious automobile accident recently. He
suffered broken bones and numerous bruises
but is coming along nicely.
John Winkelmann together with fellow
coinmen celebrated the fiftieth anniversary
of John's father's connection with the drug
industry. Winkelmann has six sons that are
druggists. John is sometimes tormented
with the thought that maybe he would be
better off if he had followed his dad's ad-
vice and become a druggist. He said that
he is mostly interested in their shorter
hours.
.
A chance to break away after a spell of
overtime work was afforded Martin Balen-
siefer of the W-B Novelty Co. and 4e took
advantage of it by taking Mrs. Balensiefer
to Hot Springs, Arkansas for a little vaca-
tion. Upon their arrival at the resort they
unexpectedly met Bill Lehman of the Gen-
eral Electric Co. and Mrs. Lehman. The
four of them went to many of the places of
interest there and were fortunate to make
the right guess as to what constitutes a good
bet at the track.
Out of town operators that visited St.
Louis in late March to buy new equipment
included Garrett Ashland of Carbondale,
Illinois, and Forest Ray of Fredericktown,
Missouri. Bill Littleton of Sikeston, Miss-
ouri, was also in town recently to make
some last minute purchases of equipment.
