    Pushing a coin in the coin slide lifts all balls to the playfield, visible to the player in a lane that feeds the ball shooter, eliminating the ball lift. Two score totalizers: one was a revolving drum that totaled the score for each game played, the other totaled the highest weekly score as an incentive to play.
    ipdb.notes
    This game is the improved version of C. & D. Mfg. Co.'s 1933 'Lone Eagle' in that it features the second, weekly totalizer. We do not know if this second one was a drum or a dial, or if its score was set and reset automatically, or done manually by the location. This manufacturer changed its name from C. & D. Mfg. Co. around the time it made this improved version. This was their only game under the new name. Durant�s mechanical totalizer was later electrified and used in Shyvers (Chicago)'s 1936 'Round 'n' Round', with credit shared between him and Ken C. Shyvers.
