North- A BLOW TO BOLITA (Fort Myers News-Press) In the trials.in circuit court last week the bolita racket suffered a stunning blow. Not because the defendants were con- victed. They have been convicted before, and the throwings have gone right on. But this time the game as well as the agents were found guilty. It was found guilty of being crooked. > That, among patrons, is an unpardon- able crime. Convicted of its truth th ; do.not:need to be urged to quit:holita. They will quit because they do not w ut; to be cheated. Bolita, at best, is a sucker game. Even when on the level the percentage which the | house takes will quickly bre-: a player with average luck. he: it isn’t on the square—and the testimony in court the other day shows how easily it ray be rig- ged—it isn’t a matter of luck, at all, but a straight out-and-out gyp. If what the authorities have wanted to do is to stamp out bolita, instead of merely cracking down on one set of agents, then the trial of last week is a big success. The device of getting into the record evi- dence of. exceedingly foul play in dealing withthe :ustomers has done what eternal vigilance on the part of the sheriff and learned eloquence on the part of the state’s attorney. could not accomplish. In the past their best efforts have not. landed anybody in jail-for long. Those arrested sooner or later got out on appeals or something, and in the meantime bolita flourishes. It has flourished because too many people have seen nothing wrong with it, and have been inclined to be a little annoyed at interfer- ence with-their favorite indoor sport. Testimony. that the numbers do not always.come out by chance, bui usually by evil design, will transfer this annoyance from the authorities to the bolita agents. From now on the customers will see plenty of things wrong with 1. old Spanish cus- tom. In fact they will see so much wrong with it that they will probably be inclined to mention the matter when somebody tries to peddle them cards from a marked deck. That will break up bolita, and it is the only. way it can be broken up, Sheriff King can aid and State’s Attorney Strayhorn can prosecute, but unless they get public support their efforts aré hopéless. From now on it would seem that they might: ex- | pect the cooperation which has heretofore been denied them. They have performed a service in exposing a crooked practice and should have the acclaim of those who have been its victims. Having big parades Americanism: for the relief of the unemployed.

Here Just 10 Years Ago Today As Taken From The Files Of The Citizen Arnold Swain, of the Exchange Club, head of the commitee that is attending the proposed eréction of an information booth at the F.

Work of improving Bay View Park which was to have started on Monday, has been delayed because of the necessity of retaining the plans in Miami for a few days. It, is expected that the plans will be! brought back to Key West in a few days by W. B. Langford, landscape, architect, who took them to be photographed. Commissioner Roy Fulford and R. T. Pritchard, who have the work in charge, state they are determined to* have the -work started as soon a spossible. ~ Joseph Marucci,* who ‘will di- certs in the park during the tour- ist season, is ready to organize the body as soon as _ permission granted from the three-way com- mittee that has the matter in charge. Mr. Marucci says there jis little time to lose if the commit- tee intends to have concerts start during Chrismas week. Suffi- cient funds have been subscribed to have the concerts last over a period of three months at least.

PLUMMER (By Associated Presa) { WASHINGTON, Nov. 22.— | Vermont, traditionally a roc ribbed state of republicanism, is attracting more than a casual in-! j terest in national politics because! On January 16 a successor to} the late Porter H. Dale for the! | senate is to be named. The republican candidate is | Ernest W. Gibson, Vermont's only | {member of the house of represen- | | tatives. | Opposed to him as the ae cratic party’s choice is Harry W.} Johnsbury, describ- ed as a “veteran campaigner.” Democrats Cut G. O. P. Lead Although Vermont remained in in 1932 there were 54,751 votes for Frank{! lin D. Roosevelt , some 23,000 les: 4 46,000 more votes for the republj- can presidential candidate than At oe It will be remembered that! President Roosevelt included ' mont on his itinerary during/ the campaign. When the democrats: met inf con- tive Vermonter made the follow-| ing observation. “Both in numbers as in énthu- siasm, yesterday’s mass meeting of democrats was something of a record-breaker. “Following. sparsely attended meetings which in the past could have been ‘held-iml “a telephone according to the jokers, the assembled democracy filled every seat jh its accustomed hall and a largg number were obliged to stand.” Lisled Up Squarely The issées in the Vermont sen- | atorial contest: seem to be fairly; i their, cgndidate stand squarely back of President Roosevelt and his administration and have de- elared so with enthusiasm. Gibson, the republican candi- date, has aligned himself with the growing opposition within his party to some of the present ad- ministration policies. This being true, an out-and-out test looms. in the state. Since the question will be decided early in the year, before other congression- al contests are begun in earnest, look to the Green Mountains for a sign. } Reading the advertisments in | your local newspaper carefully will \ prove to you that merchandise can-| ‘not only be bought as cheaply in the home city, but you actually receive more for your money than you can by sending to mail order houses or to distant cities.
