I remember the shows... I feel that they were EM machines ... definitely not solid state machines.

Was watching (by accident, of course---went to UW-Madison with Luke Duke, Tom Wopat) a re-run of the Dukes of Hazzard TV show. This adventure featured a multitude of vintage 1940's Jennings Standard Chief slots that are hijacked from Boss Hogg and
stashed in the barn. (Season 1 episode 1 1979) Proceeds will save the orphanage!

SLOT MACHINE MOVIE COMING ON THIS FRIDAY AT NOON EASTERN, 11 CENTRAL...ETC.
TCM / TURNER CLASSIC MOVIES.
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0031743/
"OFF THE RECORD" 1939.
Off the Record: Reporters marry and adopt a boy that their expose on gambling caused to become homeless.

Blondell and O'Brien star as newspaper reporters who inadvertently send Jordan to reform school after they write an expose of the illegal slot-machine racket the boy was a spotter for. Guilt-ridden, Blondell convinces O'Brien that they should marry in order to adopt Jordan and get him out of reform school.

I HAVE NEVER SEEN THIS, BUT ACCORDING TO THE DESCRIPTION, IT'S A 30's MOVIE DEALING WITH THE SLOT MACHINE RACKET, SO, I'LL GIVE IT A SHOT.
