Such evidence, the Govern

fact that each defendant actively

BY MIRIAM GUTENBERG

The prosecution in the Atlas
Club case yesterday contended
that a dice game has long been
recognized to be a form of gam
bling" in the District.
The Government argued that
from the conduct of the defend
ants ON the third floor of the
Atlas Club at the time of a raid
on the establishment at l349 Z
street NV. last February, "a
reasonable man could nationally
conclude that gambling did in
fact take place"
The prosecutions argument
was filed yesterday in response tc
an instruction from Municipal
Court Judge Andrew Howard to
prove that the mere fact" that
a dice game was going on consti-
tuted a gambling establishment
Six on Trial
On trial in the often-post-
poned case are six men charged
with presence in an illegal estab-
lishment. The case, which
finally went to trial without a
jury, after being dropped "fol
want of prosecution" was halted
on January 18 to give the Gov
eminent time to answer the
courts question as to whether
shooting dice in a private club
without evidence that the
"house" was getting a cut from
the game, was illegal. This came
after a motion for a directed ver-
dict of acquittal.
The Government argued that
the prosecution had presented
uncontradicted evidence thai
Immediately before the police
raid, each of the defendants was
participating in a dice game or
the third floor of the club.
The law Furnishing presence If
an illegal establishment, it wa:
pointed out, makes it a crime tC
be found in such an establish.
ment unless the person can give
a good account of his presence
there.
Held Aware
The prosecution argued that
on the facts at this juncture
there can be no dispute that
the defendants were found under
such circumstances as to show
that they were well aware of the
character of the establishment
which they frequented. Theil
good account" certainly cannot
be deemed sufficient without
further explanation on theil
part"
1t is clear, the prosecution de-
clared, that if a gaming table !:
set up or permitted to exist, the
premises involved are being usec
for gambling purposes and. con-
sequently, constitute a gambling
establishment.
In arguing that dice game
has long been recognized here
as form of gambling. the pros
ecution added that the U. S
Court of Appeals for the Dis
trict of Columbia has consist
emily refused to require proof OF
the passage of money to prove a
bet in offenses concerning gam
bling establishments or gaming
tables.

These are fabrications made

Those in the vicinity are based
far from the border. Thus,
they cannot be observed from
