99 years ago in 1922:
⢠Authorities began the city’s case against Alex Bollis, charged with keeping a gambling place at South Pine Street, which police in two raids cleared of elaborate gambling paraphernalia.
City solicitor Lea examined and cross examined witnesses before Judge Jones in police court.
Bollis and his brother, Steve, told of operating a mere rooming house and “parlors” where soft drinks could be served if wanted.
Police in a double raid found the place carefully guarded, they say, and entrance was gained only after breaking through a heavy door. Bollis also was charged with violation of the screen law because of the door and closed entrance.
