[GreenKeys] Movie question...

[Wayne Durkee]

The movie has had two titles.  One was or is "Ace In The Hole".  The other is "The Big Circus or Carnival" not sure which.


Kirk uses a WU model 100 a few times.  The platen moves, not the typebasket.  That feature and a set of double kybd contacts allowed Underwood to make the machine for WU.  


Hope I am correct about most of the above.


73,


Wayne
