Ogden, Dec. Nv. H. Van NOy, charged
with keeping a place resorted to for gam
bling, was acquitted in the criminal di-
vision of the city court this morning.
According to the decision of Judge J. D.
Murphy, a single instance of gambling
proved against the defendant did not con-
stitute a violation of the law covering the
allegations in the complaint. Under this
ruling, it is likely that George Frye,
charged with a similar offense will be
discharged. 1t is generally believed that
as a result of these rulings gambling will
be revived in Ogden.
