Vol. 10 NOVEMBER

That’s maestro Ray McKinley anxiously looking for a helping hand, as a signpost indicates two of Ray’s most popular recordings. Always a consistent winner on music machines, Ray’s recordings of “You Came A Long Way From St. Louis” and “All The Way From San Jose” are currently spinning hot and heavy for music operators throughout the land. Other clicks for McKinley and music ops have been “Airizay,” “Put ’Em In A Box” and “Your Red Wagon.” Ray and his boys currently headline the show at Gotham’s* Hotel New Yorker. The Ray McKinley orchestra is exclu- sively featured on RCA Victor Records. Direction; Willard Alexander, Inc. Press Relations: Milton Karle.

embers of the national coin machine distributors' association M carry the best machines, sure-shot money-makers. When you buy from an NCMDA distributor you can be certain that the gomes you get are location-tested to assure player interest. Your machines will be strictly quality merchandise, manu- factured by firms that know how much wear and tear a machine gets on location. When repairs are necessary, your machines can be quickly and easily serviced from stocks of genuine factory parts, carried at all times by your NCMDA distributor. This saves you time and money, for a game out of play is a game that's losing money. NCMDA distributors maintain large service organizations for your benefit.

When your business tapers off on a machine, when you need a new or different ma- chine to keep top-interest, your NCMDA distributor can give you the best trade, be- cause of his wide contacts and broad experience in the field. And when you buy and sell all your machines through your NCMDA distributor, you can do all your busi- ness under one room, simplifying your business dealings.

When you deal with a distributor who belongs to NCMDA, it pays in every way.
