Dismissal Plea Delays Lake Bingo Trial in Crawford County
A motion to dismiss gambling charges against Harry and Mrs. Newland of Canadohia Lake is stalled as Judges Thomas reserve ruling until facts are presented. The Newlands, who run the Canadohia Lake amusement park, face Aug. 15 charges for illegally conducting a bingo game. The defense argues the new crime code creates varying levels of prosecutable offenses and claims unequal protection under the 14th Amendment citing other unarrested bingo operators. The case pauses as 20 days are given to submit facts for a decision on dismissal or a hearing.

Economist Joseph Horvath says the figure is conservative and may influence court fights over federal projects. The survey covered 12 068 households across Maryland to Texas, targeting those who hunt, fish or bird watch to value a day of wildlife recreation and lost pay from time off. Nonwildlife values like scenery were not assessed.
