practically all these arrests being the result of raids on the Cosmopolitan club. the Greek-American club, the old Jefferson County Bank building and the offices above Greenwood Cafe No. 1. Practically all fines assessed were paid
 It is said that Solicitor Tate is now after an injunction seeking to close up the Greek American club. Judge Hor ace C. Wilkerson recently granted a similar injunction against the Cosmo- politan club here, and members of the purity squad expect the same action to be taken against the GreekAmeri- can club. It is reported that the char ters of both clubs will be taken from them.
 Assistant City Attorney G. Lewis BaiIes stated to the detectives yester- day that inasmuch as these clubs and others alleged to be guilty of permit ting gambling could obtain new char ters under new names even after in- functions had been granted against their operation, no particular adVan- tage would accrue from injunction pro- ceedings.
 In the meantime the city is continu- ing it's crusade against gambling with unsual vigor and Commissioner Tay- Tor states that his men will continue their cleanup campaign until the town is cleared of "gentlemen of chance.
