HARD TO AVOID THE GAMBLING JOINTS The reporter found it not only eany to enter the places above mon. tioned, with the exception of the Green Room, 214 Spring st., and the Nippon club, at Sixth ave, 8 and King at. but found {t difficult | to keep out of them. Wednesday afternoon the report er found a young man who proved himeelt thoroly familiar with every nook and cranny of the vice quar ter. He had lived much of the last 15 years “below the line.” Yes, he knew where a fellow could go and sit in a little game. | What kind of a game did the stranger wish? Any kind? Very well, | They went first to 107 Main st., where a sign painted on the win- dow informa the public a free em- ployment agency is operated in: side. | PROPRIETOR TAKES RAKE.OFF FROM POKER GAME The reporter played draw poker at a table with sfx other men.

S. Down a long, ldark passagew where doors | jopened mystert y for the vis {tors, was a small room, about 12/ feet square. In that tiny room were 23 men, | most of them white, some negroes land some Orientals. They were| busy marking lottery tickets, which were passed thru a grate to the cashler with the money for ea { pon the grate closed and a Chi-| |naman, in a curious sing-song,| called off the winning ticket | Strangely enough th house held | the winning ticket and all the play ers lost.

THREE SOLID BLOCKS | |OF GAMBLING HOUSES | The Nippon club, which was raid-| hed only a few weeks ago by dep uty shertffs, and 22 Japanese fined j for gambiing, was operating with all doors wide open. A constant) stream of Japs filed in and out.
