s ARRESTED IN RAID
ON POKER GAME AT
THE ARAGON HOTEL

Eight participants in a poker game in
room 21o of the Aragon hotel are under
bond to face Recorder Broyles this aft
ernoon, but it is likely that none win
appear, as all gave fictitious names
when they were taken to the police sta
ton.
The game was raided early today by
four detectives, who slipped up the back
stairway avoiding hotel attaches and
others, and watched the players from
the transom
JEFF Hardin, who has several times
been arrested for running gambling ia
bles, was banking the game, and it was
Hardin who put up tire s5O.75 collateral
required to free each of the partic-
pants.
The detectives gained entrance to the
room when the bell boy emerged with a
tray of empty glasses. They say the
room was equipped with a big table
and all the necessary paraphernaIis for
poker.

railroads to pull mileage on trains is now

ger fare as an alternative

arats windows and employ separate mile
age ticket agents in ali cities of more
than 1000 population, with an alterna-
