It is easy enough to understand why Mr. Norman Bel Geddes was fascinated by the script of Francis Gallagher's Iron Men, is play about the roen who build the steel skeletnne uf sky-scrapers. presented by Mr. Clertrice at the Longs acre Theater Monday night. Mr. Clecidee, foremost of our realists In matters of stage design, wes gis-en a chance to pre- sent the 83d finar nt a building tinder construction. During the course of the play's action (as a matter nf fact, com- prising abolit the only real Fiction In the play) girders are swung rieraut by the derrick that Mr. Geddes h. Oared al, the side of the stnge, and actors pretend to rivet them Into potation. Thus the customers, if they are willing to get stiff necks, can watch the structure of Mr. Geddes' building growing -- mounting higher and higher toward the Alen. It la more fun watching the advance of the girders than the advance of the play-- which is understandable, since the girders' advance is both the more rapid and the more logical. Mr. Oallagher has offered a novel setting for the U. of his sicene-designerproducer, but beyond that he has offered very little. His tale its ahnut a prize construction gang of four men. fellows who rivet the girders Into place and take great pride in their work.

He finds n Ind on the loose and gently tug- geets a gond address. It la, of coot.. the address of the happily married pair. The husband comes home, finds his wife in is position that was none of her choosing, kills her and then commits October 31, 1936 LEGITIMATE The Billboard 21 suicide, all of which.

Instead he hen hired William Made, is gentleman who has netually helped to build the steel skeletons of some of our buildInge and who has never before appeared on the stage in a professional capacity. /t is a daring move, but. its it turns out, a suecensfUl one. Mr. Meade gives a vivid, believable and for the most part effective perfrirmance--and of course his technique with the girders Is above reproach. Harold Moffat, who known lem about girders but presumably more about acting. plays the loving and tragic lstln. hand nicely enough. Kathleen Pita contributes a moving bit, as his wife. Small parts are excellently handled by Prank Jaquet, Richard Taber, Jack Carr, Edward V. Bracken and several others. On second night Clark Twelvetreca, who plays the lad who falls, blew far more violently than the wind on the 634 floor. Undoubtedly We interesting to watch Mr. Geddes' wooden girders climb up and lip--but the suspicion remains that It is entertainment for excavationwatchers rather than theatergoers.

DOROTHY BRYANT, Executive Secretary. October 31, 1936 The Billboard 1.3 lite gtoalval Red DEATH is no respecter of age, persons, rank or character. It snatches its prey at will--and in the case of Ferd Simon, one. of the outstanding "flesh" showmen of the country, it pounced without warning, while he was sleeping the fitful sleep of the weary. The show business lost last week a most promising factor in the successful fight being waged to re-establish stage shows in all their pristine glory in the leading theaters of the country. The world lost a really fine character. And the actor lost one of his most valiant champions. Sad it is when death takes anyone that we've known and learned to admire and like. Sadder still when the icy hand of death is laid imperiously on one who, according to the oft-violated law of averages, should have had very many years of achievement before him. Ferd Simon was only 41 vcars old when he left us, but in this comparatively brief period he crowded truly a lifetime of accomplishment. It is customary when writing an eulogistic treatment of one whose mortal being is no more to depict the subject as a saint; as one too good to live and therefore nit-re appropriately dead. Simon was not molded in the classic lines of a saint. Ile (lid not possess the theatrics that are associated with saintliness. But he was a man--a live, forceful, honest, modest and forthright man. Many are the men whose meekness, derived from a lack of guts, earns their' undeservedly the reputation of being kindly and considerate. Simon was both of these, hut he was not meek. Ile fought for those whom he represented in the strenuous atmosphere of the talent mart. Ilis competitors were not particularly fond of him because he fought the whole way for those in his little black book. And he died fighting because the medicos ascribed his untimely demise to overwork. * * * This young-old man in a gruelling profession would have smiled less than a week before we write this at the idea of being the subject at this time of a preachment. Which thought serves us as a theme. There were agents. we well recall, who spoke deprecatingly of Bill Morris while he tvas still in the land of the living. When that fine character took his last bow, when the world arose as one and pointed to hint as one of the sweetest souls that ever blessed the show business with his beautiful presence, the slanderers were lifting their voices in the chorus; their petty squawks drowned in a sea of alligator tears. Desirable as it might be for a man to spread sunshine and good-will as he moves thru life such is human nature that unless a man corrals a good stock of enemies and slanderers he cannot have been much of a success at his chosen work. There Isn't a man In the higher brackets of the show business--whether he be so-tor, alma-men or toehnielen--Who hasn't harvested a goodly crop of "I knew him aherta slanderers; the greater the suceree echieved the larger the assemblage of "t knew him when- guys following furtively in his footsteps. If it weren't for the fact that n teepee is necessary to complete the setting It would be well, Indeed, for the emotional creature, of the show business to attend funerals often. Death Is a great flatiron. In one broad sweep It smoothed out wrinkles of petty strife, Jealousies and all the other negative mspecte of social and business Intercourse. If even for a brief spell the contemplation of death ne a phenomenon that lobe one forever of a loved one, a friend or a buelneas associate nerves to throw into proper focus the pettiness of =lay of the mean things we do in · day. * * · To the agente who hid against him, to other's who regarded him .a., · competitive factor, Peed Simon is no longer an opponent.

There'll never be a guy like Perd anyway. So It is; regrettably so will It be, in varying degree, always.

If business ciantinues at its present pace it should be aefe to predict that total revenue realized from the show will reach the $450.000 mark. Injuries to contentante have been plentiful, which is probably verification of the fact that the Colonel's stock is as tough as the San Antonio rancher maintained before the contests began. During the first two weeks of the show exactly 36 cowboy, and cowgirls have been excused front one or more performances for injurlea sustained in fulfil-in. Am usual, they ranged from cute. spreinn and bruises( to broken arma and legs. There have been no fatal accidents. For further details, see feature section of this issue.

We applaud the directors of the forthcoming Exposition tor upsetting traditicn by daring to picture the future, arid we predict that when thc Spring of '39 rolls around The Fair of Fairs will unfold itself on Long Island as a living challenge to all Previous World Fairs, George A. Harnid, Inc., borrowing a finger front Gotharn's Gargantuan Gauntlet, meets the future with the same spirit that motivates New York's Exposition--rneets it by expanding its facilities to match the ever-growing needs of an ever-growing Amusement Industry, by modernizing these facilities and by looking ahead yet over cognizant of the lessons taught by history and experience. In "Building the World of Tomorrow" In terms of the outdoor amusement business, George A. Harnid, Inc., modestly feels that it, too, is prepared in challenge the field, not for supremacy, but for a greater ideal that of lifting the business to its proper niche in the affairs of the world, enhancing its standard and developing its prowess as a great modern factor in pleasing and entertaining the peoples of the Universe.

I could name many concrete examples on our show and others, Owners and agents have talked to me "with tears in their eyes" about this subject in the last few years, and sometimes they were more to be criticized than the member, of the shows they were condemning. The average outdoor showman does not realize how much of a mythical character he is to the home-town man, nor does he know how many times a small purchase from him is advertised to the adjoining stores. I remember one case of a hard-boiled, stingy, narrow-minded man whose perverted attitude toward outdoor shows and outdoor showmen was changed because a very small show bought less than 5100 worth of goods from him. lust one example. I lived in Amarillo. Tex., for the several years I was out of show business. I was the owner of some stock in a corporation, the president of which at that time owned the lot where carnivals and other week- stand shows exhibited. He also owned two big dry goods stores. A certain carnival was playing the town. and during that week this man had a big sale on in his . The weather was very bad. The sale did not go over. Neither did the carnival shows do any good. Looking for an excuse, this man told me he was going to raise the lot rent 100 per cent, for the carnival took all the money out of town. I took him to the show and had him go over the books with me and the carnival had also lost money. I then took him around the lot and in less than 20 minutes he met people who had bought more than $350 worth of merchandise from him that week. It was not "framed." Since then ho has been a believer in outdoor shows, but he asked me why we did not let him know that we spent that kind of money. Those little slips would have made that question unnecessary. I believe that 250 should be issued each week for each employee on a week-stand show. I realise that many of them will be wasted, but still h. cheapest athrortiting that any *widow ehoure can one. my belief that it is KENHNOER CHEVROLET CO. MEMPHIS.

DOROTHEA ANTEL OS Wed 726 Nam, gm Vora. R. Y. By JACK GREENBERG President the Continental Mercantile Company Here are a few idea. on selling SiCE that I.pleked up during my lifetime in the tie inelnese. It le up to you to select the method which yotà may feel you are nitwit capable of following: First, of course, is the street pitch. There are many variations. The most Important things necessary for a secreeeful street pitch are: (1) an Kittention getter. and (2) an attention holder. The ettentIon getter may be a magic trick which 'enmity taken from 15 to 30 minutes to materialize so that the people will stick around, or you can act "nuts." The attention holder should be a demonstration of aome sort on ties, Per Instance, ask one of the audience to hold one end of the tie and twist it pretty tight. While doing this make a spiel on the super quality of your ties. Then light a newspaper torch and pees it under the tie. The tie won't burn. Or hang a tie by one end and mid weight» to the Other, Increasing the weight slowly. The tic won't rip. There are many other» too numerous to mention. For a high-elm. Street pitch you can tree galremeree swatches such Ital Are Steed in window trims. For this you will need a showy toton, which can be bought in any hardware atore. A stick of nickeled steel about one-half Inch thick end about 113 Mellen long will do. This le to focus Attention of the prospect on what you are doing. Then Meter., pf showing tire you show your swatches. With a little practice you can get. the knack of folding your gwatchter with your baton down perfect. This Is Important, as your prospective customero must not have their minds too much taken steely from your spiel. This method la Melia:sae and le used is lot. In selling better Mee on city streets,. Then there Is the concession method. This consists of placing lu various live spots, such as cigar stores, department stores and pool parlors, n small meek of ties on consignment, giving the propr)etor a percentage. This requires a greater investment than the street pitch. but le a good way of doing business, as it permits you to take advantage of the good WIll of your customer. Another gond method of selling ties in quantity is the norme a/dents-surd. The beat way to use the small ealeehoard lu to pionce It with a timekeeper or foreman in n large industrial plant, cor barn. bun garner, or similar spot. You then make a prize of a half dozen ties for the 'winner and a half dozen or cash for the person handling it. If you give good values you can count safely on a 50 per rent markup. You will build up e big following and con continue to work the same spots Indefinitely. find If you get these things down pat In your mind you will that the price you get for your ties, will become secondary in your mind as well ne in your prospective customer's mind. If you give your customer a good time he will pay 10 or 15 cents more for the tame tie than he would otherwise, either to you or to a storekeeper. Absysyn keep in mind that the public want, to be amused and will pay for amusement. Remember that the customer In order to buy from you must be made to feel either far superior or far inferior to you mentally and financially. A salesman must always liner plenty of nerve. While making a den,ongtration you must keep moving and talking. You must have your spiel down no perfectly that you can exchange remarks with the ·.nclece guys" in your audience and still be ahlo to go on from where you left off. These points are the main essentials of pitching any Item. MEN'S SOX na,on Ad). Plane Atiz, urr. ,..rl and third quality. 12 pours isearted pailc-nw to 0..1,1 30 Mown P.m to caw.

Knoxville Paper Weighs Benefits of New Meters The spread of parking meters may serve to attract more popular interest in coin-operated devices as a mechanical convenience and may also give the in- Mosley more consideration an an eco- nomic factor. Antoine may raise "Cain." but at least the parking-meter idea eeems to be spreading far and wide. The Knexedlle Journal editorializes on the benefits of the meters A. follows: "Considerable discussion has taken place in Knoxville lately as to whether or not our city should adopt a nvezetu of metered automobile parking on Its bualest streets. City council has hod the project under consideration for sev- eral weeks and it La to be hoped that its final decision will be to install the meters on a trial basis without charge to the city, giving the public a chance to test the system which has proved successful in so many other places. "The Dallas Journal, in commenting upon the experience of that city with meter parking, cite. that amont the ac- complishments of the first year of the present isdminintratlon 'the Installation of parking meters is to be placed at the top,' the benefits being listed as the city's revenue of 6140.000 from the sys- tem. the speeding up nf traffic. the In- create of parking space for short-time markets thru the elimination of the parking-space 'hog? who leave their care at one spot for long periods of time, the decrease In double parking and greater ease of deliveries, by truckmen and expressmen. "The Journal also reports that 'the public response han been not only favor- able but enthusiastic, and merchants on the three main downtown 'streets are the best advocates in the city for parking. meter operation.' "M City Manager Dempster has and pointed out, the right to park on the street Is a privilege not an Inherent right given bromine of residence within the city. "The manufacturers of one meter de- vice have offered to install their product for a period of 90 days. If it ,should be found during that time that parking machines are not practicable in Knox- ville they would be removed without any cost at all to the city. This scheme, however, promises to solve a sessions situntion of traffic congestion and It would be · mistake not to give It · trial." Dodder Offers Exchange Plzin on Preferred Stock in NEW YORK.

October 31, 1936 AMUSEMENT MACHINES The itillhiporel 81 Exhibit Speeding On New 1-Shotters CHICAGO, Oct. 24.--Exhibit Supply Company plant is humming these days In turning out two new one-shot table crimes. Leo J. Kelly, wiles manager, shows collection reports and orders for the games that indicate the success of the grimes. According to Kelly, "Client Movie Bank and Trap Lite are large, massive. 50x25.. inch games. They arn n long stride from early days of the Industry when pin games could be carried under the arm and the metal stand was extra equipment. The man who said the pin-garne W219111990 Is the fastest moving industry in the world certainly made truthful statement. "Think of upending 80,000 to tool up on a ainglo game and then think how rind hazardous a business is manufacturing. Rarely will you a group of men with such trim commercial courage as the coln-nutehlne manufacturers. Many op- erators imagine they take all the chances, but, after viewing experimental scrap heaps in factory after factory ene will be inclined to cheer for the ability of the manufacturer to take hin gigantic losses without a murmur. Grime priers me up. they coat money these, days, but after all everyone knows that a game that makes money really doesn't cost anything. How can anything be expensive and profitable at tho same Ume? "Client Movie Rank haa mystery changing odds. Every time the grime in played new odds appear from 10 centa to 82. Any hole on the board will pay the odds Indicated. The big feature of the game is the automatic accuiritilatmg bank jackpot. With every 200 plays this bank Increases 112. "Of course, If the player makes the Bank Holes on the board three times in succession the bank ia autoinatleally paid and the process of accumlating starts over. The bank can reach n top of 842. Another feature that should create a lot of thrills for the players Is the 82 that comes to the player upon putting two balls in succesalon in the bank hole and then put the ball the next time into a payout hole. It, makes no difference if the odds show only 10 cents, out cornea the $2. To clear this up a bit you should know that the 1.11 Shot thru the Bank Hole returns for free play. "Trap Lila appears to be a gante enUrely new and' different. Falling traps light up lights that set tip the payout odds. Looks like the pinyer will get a ler, of amusement from this game. Both Trap Lite and Giant Movie Bank conte o-mplete with ticket unit so that the operator is prepared to operate on checks, money or tickets.

However, here's wishing thee young man all the luck 10 the world ator furnished also, an at one at and price. "Yes, the coin-machine industry moves fast. Even the workers at the filetory tasks assembling these games seem to be filled with that enthusiastic tension that has pushed our great Industry to the top in spite of unusual handicaps. It's groat visiting these coin-rnachine plants. If you've never visited Chicago jilmi to do eo soon and then by all means go visiting and see all the manufacturers and what they aro doing for you." Stres4es Utility of New Shoot-a -Lite Ray Device CHICAGO, Oct. 24.--"Af ter pioneering coin-operated photo-electric cell machines you could naturally expect us to run out something new and different In an electric eye rifle target machine and we've done just that." said Len Kelly, sale« manager of Exhibit Supply Company, recently. "This is one time," continued Kelly, "when the pioneer comes into his own. Usually the pioneer blazes thc trail and along comes the other fellow and cashes in, but this tinte we're out in front. Our new rifle target machine will be pneduced at a price that every operator can afford. We can produce our machine at low cost because we have no expensive experimenting to do. We have no special tools nor dies to make. We have them all made and have already charged them off in the production of our other type photo-cell inachines. We were ahead of the market by about a year, so we have year's start. The operator is the winner niong with us because Shoot-a -Lite Is not only priced low, It is perfect mechanically and a proven money maker. "Shoot-a-Lite can be used everywhere because it takes up but little space. We. furnish it, with adjustable pedestal no that It can be adjusted for proper height to suit the location. If the pedestal cannot be used snoot.a-Lite can be hung on the wall or suspended from the ceiling.
