The People of the State of New York, Respondent, v. Oscar Zelikowitz, Appellant.

Opinion:
Appeal by defendant from a judgment of a city magistrate, holding a Court of Special Sessions of the City of New York, Borough of Brooklyn, convicting him of the crime of book-making, in violation of section 986 of the Penal Law.
