Gambling Ship Deserts Restraining Order On Water Taxis Refused
Long Beach Superior Judge Leslie J. Still refused a temporary restraining order to restore water taxi service to Admiral Tony Cornero Strallo's Lux gambling ship. Attorneys Garvin and Rummel sought to bar local officials from interfering with the fleet, which ferried patrons to the Lux amid gambling charges. Strallo, free on bail with seven lieutenants, denied knowledge of the petition as boats were impounded and patrons stranded after service halted.
