others who have been on trial in Dis

jury without any testimony being Of
Tered In defense of the men, it was an
nomced by counsel in court today.
The morning was spent by opposing
attorneys in settling prayers for in
structions by the court to the jury.
Arguments were expected to be COM
pleted by midafternoon, when the jury
probably will begin its deliberations.
The Government closed its case late
yesterday. The defense was expected
to rely principally on the results of
attempts to shake and discredit prose-
cution witnesses.
Just before the end of Yesterdays
session, Justice Jesse c. Adkins denied
motions to strike from the record
exhibits of alleged gambling parapher-
MALTA and other equipment seized in
the raid March 10 on the establish
ment the seven are said to have run
at 1890 Fourteenth street NV. The
motions were based on the contention
that the warrant with which the
raiders were armed was improperly
obtained and Illegally executed.
Directed Verdict Denied.
Justice Adkins also denied motions
on behalf of each of the defendants
for directed verdicts of not guilty.
. Besides Nuckols, the defendants are
Moe Morganstein, Robert A. Murray,
Lawrence F. Pisani, Anthony T. Cos
tello. Harry c. Adams and George w.
Godfrey. Nuckols is we'll known here.
and the Government contends he was
the proprietor of the alleged horse
race gambling place.
Just before the close Of the Gov
ernment's case, Assistant United
States Attorney Samuel F. Beach drew
from Philip G. Af1eck, rental agent
for the Fourteenth street premises.
that Nuckols "resembled Jack Nichols"
mysterious individual hitherto uniden-
titled, who is supposed to have leased
the place.
Murray Told of Renting Place.
Two days ago Murray testified he
rented the premises, but did so in the
name Of Nichols, whom he described
only as "a friend of mine" Police
have not been able to find any such
person as Nichols.
Most Of the Government evidence
yesterday afternoon was in corrobora-
ton of prior evidence.
Throughout the day, scratch sheets.
betting slips, rundown slips. tele-
phones and similar paraphernalia
were paraded before the jury of 10
men and 2 women. The final ex-
hipit was a heavy wooden trap door
through which the raiders said thew
smashed their way to reach the sec
ono-hoor room where the alleged
oookmaking establishment was located
Representing the defendants are
Attorneys Harry T. Whelan, William
B. OConnell and William A. Gallagher.
