Swapping of fingers, rattling OF
bones and prayerful petitions to the
Goddess of Luck could be heard last
night outside the crowded pool and
bllliardroom freQuented by the colored
sports OF the east side.
Some fellow threw down thirty
cents and declared that he would fade
the whole bunch of dead game sports.
Several bystanders sVndicated their
chicken feedn and called the buffer.
Then he spat on his hands, rubbed
the bones and called for ''Mr. Seven"
TO come and help him buy a pair OF
shoes for his baby Some fellow
named "Llttle Joe" appeared instead.
After that he and 'sBig Dick who
was evidently brother, and Phoebe,
sister, were called upon frequently
during the progress of the game.
sAs the game continued the dice
rolled luck back and forth among the
twelve players. Some player who
ought TO have known better, became
exeited and yelled loudly for Eleven.
Only two responded, but they were
enough. They were Marshal Riden-
