We are honored to be a part of this special event that brings together our amazing community of schools, parents, parishes and supporters. The incredible support Mayfair receives each year reminds us how blessed we are to be a part of the Billings Catholic Schools. Thank you to the countless volunteers and supporters who make this event possible. This is a momentous year for BCS as the vision of a new school becomes a reality. Part of that vision is to complete the “Technology Transformation” Special Project. The project will ensure that every student has access to tools which will enhance their education and enable them to excel in their studies in a faith-centered environment. All the technology purchased from the special projects, including the iPads and Promethean Boards, will be transferred into the new school making this year’s project even more critical to our schools’ continued success. Thank you again for your generous support and we hope you have a wonderful evening! Sincerely, Brittney & Rod Souza Brittney and Rod Souza 2016 Mayfair Chairs 3 Dear Friends, Welcome to Mayfair 2016! While this is the 41st annual event, it is a year of new beginnings for the Billings Catholic Schools. After years of planning, we broke ground on our new K-8 school on April 21st. I am proud of the current and past Foundation and School Board members who helped make this possible. Thank you for your courage and perseverance. I am most proud of our team at the Foundation. When the decision was made to build a new school and conduct a Capital Campaign, no additional staff was hired. Without question, our current staff added duties to their already packed workload. This team has pulled together on existing projects that will maintain vital school funding, while working on the Capital Campaign. Please take a moment to thank Lia, Nikki, and Keziah for a job well done! We are not done fundraising for the new school. We need your help to raise the funds necessary to complete the project. Our tenacious Campaign Leadership Team, under the leadership of Rita Turley and Mike Heringer, is determined to open the doors of the new building without incurring debt. There is no doubt we will get this done. We are part of a great organization, filled with great people who share the same mission, vision, and values. Thank you for your courage, your confidence, and your generosity. Enjoy your evening! Sincerely, Janyce Haider Billings Catholic Schools Foundation President 4 Thank you to everyone who shared their talents to make Mayfair 2016 a roaring success!

No. 2241 Honorable Chairman: This is to inform you of my unequivocal support of the referen~ed H. B. No. 2241 which would amend H.R.S. Section 712-1226 regarding possession of a gambling device. I have had a 50-year-old functional antique slot machine stored in Las Vegas, Nevada for years and have been waiting for the opportunity to legally bring it to my home here in Hawaii for personal display as any other antique would be exhibited. I take great pride in ownership of this rare collector’s piece and would hope you agree that it is unfair to be unable to enjoy it in the sanctity of my own residence.

  • John Gabel: Immigrant Achieving the American Dream … and His Role in the Early Days of Mills Novelty Co
    John Gabel: Immigrant Achieving the American Dream … and his role in the early days of Mills Novelty Co. © Rick Crandall, 2016 This is an important, previously untold story from the early days of the creation of the coin-op gaming and amusement machine industry. It presents, with a rare first-hand account, a whole new view of how the Mills Novelty Company got its legs to become the largest and most successful in its field. However it is also an account of a man who exemplifies the strength of character, inventiveness and individual entrepreneurialism that has been the backbone that built the United States from a melting pot of immigrants seeking the American dream – and achieving it. This is a story that the late Dick Bueschel, the most recognized researcher and author of gaming machines, would have loved to tell in this degree of detail. In fact it is partially due to him that I can. As a tribute to Dick’s passion, enthusiasm and tireless efforts to bring information to light about all aspects of the automatic entertainment-machine history, I will channel Dick and write the next paragraph in his inimitable style: “Random finds might seem pure luck – and in a way they are – but if you work to make your own luck you just might have the same experience, often when you least expect it. The determined are in for a lot of heartache and wasted time. But … if after hard work, they finally make an original find … It’s a thrill that’s hard to describe.

David Bowers has collected, studied, and enjoyed automatic musical in- struments, beginning in 1960. In the intervening years he has written several books on the subject, including A Guide Book of Automatic Musical Instruments (1966), Put Another Nickel In (1968), Encyclopedia of Automatic Musical Instruments (1971), and Treasures of Mechanical Music (co-authored with Arthur A. Reblitz, 1981). He has contributed many articles to the journals of the Musical Box Society International and AMICA (Automatic Musical Instrument Collectors’ Association), and is one of just four recipients of the Musical Box Society International’s Lifetime Service Award. The author, whose main business over the years has been as a dealer in rare coins, has traveled extensively through America and Europe seeking information relating to automatic mu- sical instruments. At present he is creating several new books relating to automatic musical instruments. From the 1960s to the 1980s he was a partner in Hathaway & Bowers, Inc. (with Terry Hathaway), Amer- ican International Galleries, Inc. (with Bonnie Tekstra), and the Mekanisk Musik Museum A/S (Copenhagen, with Claes O. Friberg). These companies were major suppliers and advisors to many of the finest private and museum collections ever formed, including those of Michael Ames, Donald D.

The Cash Box has repeated its editorial entitled "Quiet”. This editorial proved one of the most popular to have yet appeared in this industry. Its popularity is based on the fact that this is the time for this trade to contain within itself its business transactions, its earning capacity and all other matters which might be seen or fall into, the hands of blue-noses, publicity seeking politic- ians, tax seeking legislators, or the any others who can harm this trade with this sort of knowledge. Surely, with the tax situation so seriously desperate, and continuing to grow more and more alarming each day thruout the nation, this is the time for - quiet. This is not the time for anyone to openly advise the world the amount of money his equipment is earning. Many will recall what this meant in one state legislature some months ago when a ranting, raving tax bug got up on the assembly floor and wildly waved a page from a publication wherein tremendous cash figures were openly printed regarding the earning power of music maahines and other equipment of this industry.

No. 2241 — Relating to antique gambling devices I am writing in support of H. B. 2241 which would amend Section 712-1226 of the Hawaii Revised statutes pertaining to the possession of a gambling device. I am part of a small group of antique slot machines aficionados who desire to be able to bring our collections home to Hawaii. The development of the first slot machine began in the late 1800’s. The machines were manually operated through a complex system of gears and springs. Of special interest, however, is the multitude of exterior housings that were created to enclose the operating mechanism. Many include elaborate die castings, machining, lighting effects and other specialized novelties. The question may arise, “if you are mainly interested in the exterior housing, why do you need a fully operating machine?” The response would be, “why would you want an antique clock, cash register, automobile etcetera it did not function?” The legalization of allowing the possession of these antique machines into the State also has multiple implications. 1. It would allow our local residences the personal satisfaction of being able to own and enjoy their machines here in the State. 2. It would provide a business opportunity to sell these items to our multi-national tourist trade.
