| Long time handbook and short time casino run by “Mulepole” Fritz in the late 1930s and 1940s. His place was apparently plush and was taking all the business in town which didn't sit well with the local operators who repeatedly threw bombs into the place. As a concession he removed the craps tables and just ran the handbook (bombings continued). |
