28761.
    Waters v. The State.
    Decided February 7, 1941.
    
      Russell G. Turner, for plaintiff in error.
    
      Bond Almand, solicitor, John A. Boykin, solicitor-general, J. W. LeCraw, contra.
   Broyles, C. J.

The defendant was convicted in the criminal court of Fulton County of operating a lottery, known as the “number game,” for the hazarding of money. The evidence, direct and circumstantial, amply authorized the judge, sitting without a jury, to find the defendant g-uilty; and none of the special assignments of error in the petition for certiorari shows cause for a new trial. The overruling of the certiorari by the judge of the superior court was not error.

Judgment affirmed.

MacIntyre and Gardner, JJ., concur.
