for which, therefore. no one is
to be blamed, e. g.. death. flood

The Zodiac is a belt of sky extending eight de-

the apparent paths OF the sun. moon and principal
planets. II is divided into twelve signs OF thirty
degrees each, the names of which are: Aries Tau

Sagittarius Capricornus, Aquarius and Pisces. The
first six north of the equator, the last six
south of il. The six Ascending" signs are those
from Capricornus to Gemini inclusive in which the
sun Is moving northward; the six descending
signs, those in traversing which il continually in
creases its north polar distance. The begins
with the vernal equinox and shifts through pre-

century B. C., and transmitted IL westward. The

century.

WILL NOT MODIFY

Judge Can't Sanction
Gambling at Dog Races;
Paddock Stays on

District Judge Albert c. Hunt
Thursday afternoon overruled the
motion to modify the Injunction re-
Gently issued against Mid-Continent

attorney for NJ. J. McNulty ir. pro-
ptletor Of the park, Immediately
gave notice Of apepal to the supreme
court.
There is some doubt az to wheth-
er the dog races should be stopped" :"
Judge Hunt advised In announcing
his decision; but / have found a
sufficient number Of supreme court
decisions to warrant me in overrul-
ing the motion to dissolve this In
junction.
Although there Is n possibility
that section 1856 OF the statutes is
not In force, there Is several sections
prohibiting gaming, and from the
testimony entered by the state and
by the park manag cement, 1t is clear
to the court that gaming was per-
mitted and practicod openly and no.
tOliously.
The criminal court OF appeals
has upheld convictions on section
1856, even though It's legality is ques-
TONED. In I9l3 Judge Furman, In
case OF the state ". Lawrence, held
that betting is unlawful. This case
grew out OF betting on ball game.
In the James case the supreme court
held that the making of bets consti-
tutes gambling and may be enjoined
II realize that a mans property
should not be tied up by Injunction
unless there Is sufficient evidence and
authority to warrant Il. In this case
] consider IL my duty to overrule the
motion to dissolve the injunction and
close the park for all purposes"
The testimony showed that the
dog races at Continent park
were patronized by "some OF Tulsa's
best people" Judge Hunt explained.
and added but this does not legal
ize them
Failure to continue the Injunction
would mean that the court gave It's
sanction to open gambling, the court
