No. 123
    STATE ex v. THISTLE DOWN CLUB
    No. 19549.
    Supreme Court
    Petition in Quo Warrants.
    Dock. Jan. 9, 1926;
    4 Abs. 40.
    Attorneys — C. C. Crabbe, H. H. Griswold, Wilbur E. Benoy, all of Columbus.
   The Attorney General alleges in the petition filed herein that the Thistle Down Jockey Club, Inc., is an Ohio- Corporation; that it has acquired grounds and built structures for conducting meets, contests and races; that the Club has employed devices and apparatus for recording wagers on the outcome of horse taces; in violation of the Constitution and statutes of Ohio; and that this practice will continue in the future unless prevented by the order and judgment of this court.

The prayer asks for a judgment of ouster and for the appointment of trustees to liquidate the affairs of the club.
