Columbus Oct 26 AP The Ohio Supreme Court will rule on whether mere display of a slot machine violates gambling laws. Edward D. Shaffer was fined 50 dollars and 10 days in jail for displaying a slot machine in Paulding County, but the appeals court discharged him. The court will hear the state’s appeal asserting display constitutes gainful exhibition. The court also will review Joseph Edward Wilson of Akron who was fined 50 dollars on two counts of indecent liberties with two nine year old girls. The appellate court upheld the conviction but Wilson contends deposition testimony from one girl was improper.
