    ipdb.notable_features
    1-ball payout play. Playfield has no holes or bumpers. A light source, three strategically placed mirrors, and a photo-electric vacuum tube create an invisible light beam zig-zagging across the playfield. Each time a ball breaks the path of the beam, the score is increased on the backglass projection totalizer. The score card shows what scores have to be made, and the backglass odds indicator shows what achieving the scores will pay on that play. Cabinet is 23 inches wide by 54 inches long.

    The non-payout novelty version of this game is Keeney's 1937 'Fire Ball'.
