There are three distinctive changes
in Valle v's new tables . For the first
time, Valley is marketing a table with
a top that is not green . This one is a
saddle-brown cloth.
Another "first " is the three-piece
slate top on the largest of its new
tables. And the third feature is the
leather-covered iron pockets with
attached brown fringe .
Named the Trail Blazer and the
Westwood , the new tables are
available in elm -style finish (with the
brown top) , and in oak-style finish
(with the green top) . Both are
marketed in an 84- by 46-inch and a
102- by 56-inch size .
The larger version is shipped with
a three-piece , one-inch slate top ; the
smaller with a one-piece 3/4-inch slate

With its colorful red , yellow and
blue playfield , SEGA Soccer is an
attractive and highly competitive
two-pla yer arcade game .
Each of the twenty-four kick-out
holes in the playfield has a letter and
color combination with a correspond-
ing set of letter and color buttons at
the front of each player. The player
must be quick of mind and hand to
beat his opponent in selecting the
correct button co mbinations to kick
out the ball .
The object of the game is to "kick"
as many balls as possible into your
opponent's goal. Each player has a
goal keeper who can block shots on
goal.
Each time a goal is scored , a new
ball is automatically put into play
from the "Kick Off" chute at the right.
Game time is adjustable from one
to three minutes , and a buzzer
feature warns the player that game -
over is nearing . A score by eit her
player after this buzzer will auto-
matically end the game.
The Soccer is of clean and simple
design with a durable easy-to-c1ean
cabinet and requires minimum floor
space due to its compact construc-
tion .
