the bushes over a wooded area

For more than q few years, some
Of the best brains OF the nation,
thinking along mechanical lines, has
been trying 10 devise method OF
eliminating the pln-boy In a bowl.
Inc alley II remained for Fred
Schmidt, q former pattern
and factory engineer to put together
q pinspotter that WORKS, with
out the aid Of human hands, and
It will be shown for the first time
at Buffalo, March IL. Il Is feet Q
inches high, with no alley altera-
tons needed on BIG PIN alleys,
and is manufactured by the Ameri-
can Foundry and Machine COM
pany. SUCTION CUPS are a major
part Of the mechanical marvel
which will do everything except
throw the ball at the pins. It even
clears the alley OF "deadwood". It's
inventor has been working on It for
TEN YEARS.
Operating Is rapidly as the
bowler wishes, 1t automatically
runs the gamut Of bowling serv-
ices, setting up the pins, return
ing the ball TO the player, and
sweeping the alley Of fallen pins.
I takes into account both strikes
and spares.
Mechanisms designed with the
objectives that the AMI Auto
matte Pinspotter has attained
have been attempted for q quarter
Of century but without success.
It was Mr.. Schmidt's introduction
of suction in cooperation with
mechanical and electric means
which finally achieved the end
which others have long sought.
The weight Of the ball on q
cradle" In the pit activates the
AMI Automatic Pinspotter. The ball
Is hoisted TO the return runway on
O. conveyor, suction cups lift re-
naming pins from the alley while a
sweep clears off lockwood, which
Is placed in a hopper and then, by
means Of an endless escalator lifted
to the loading section. Pins left
standing, including "off-spot" pins,
after the delivery of the first hall
are returned to their original spots
by the suction cups. Following the
delivery Of the second ball, the al
ley is swept completely clear Of all
pins and another set is put in place
by the machine.
