which included such words as royal
flush, full house, calls. chips and 9TH
er words suggestive OF the all empow-

man had fallen into a gambling game
where he stated the men involved
tried to fleece him. He testified
that on learning that they were PLAY
ing unfair with him, he suggested
that they return his money and let
him go. 4 fight ensued in which the
alleged fleeced party got the worst
OF the deal once more.
Evidently the one that did the hit

1t is not true that every pain in
