Atlas Has Parts
CHI CAGO-It may come as a surprise
to readers of THE REVIEW to learn that the
Atlas Novelty Co., Chicago, has one of the
largest and most complete parts depart-
ments in the country. The department has
grown steadily until it now has practically
every part an operator might ask for. Orig-
inally it was planned to issue a parts catalog
but officials found the items too numerous
to list. However operators are having their
orders taken care of satisfactorily by order-
ing by number or sending in worn parts.
Harold Pincus is in charge of the parts
department and although present conditions
make it increasingly difficult to secure some
items Atlas still has .those "hard to get"
parts and Pincus and his staff are busy the
whole time filling orders. Pincus takes pride
in seeing orders are filled the same' day re-
ceived for he knows that the operator's in-
come depends on keeping his machines

Daval Sales Increase
CHICAGO- Attributing it to OPM's stop-
production order on gaming devices for
duration of the war, The Daval Co. reports
a sudden 'boom of purchases of Marvels and
American Eagles by operators throughou t
the country. Assertion of President Al S;
Douglis is that many operators realize these
machines will be of greater value as the
weeks pass, and that tests show they can
"take the tax" and still clear a handsome
,
profit.
Some coinmen have expressed the belief
that American Eagle will become one of the
most important of all machines on the mar-
ket, as time goes on. A stock of new ma-
chines is still available, DougHs declares. •
