eas THE OSHAWA TIMES, Wednesday, October 17, 1962 17) Papalia Linked To Gaming Club By JOHN LeBLANC TORONTO (CP) -- Tough Johnny (The Enforcer) Papalia of Hamilton, now held in New York in a huge drug-smuggling conspiracy case, was named Tuesday as a silent partner in a gambling club which it took the Ontario government almost a year to close after a gaming conviction. ' The province's royal commis- sion on crime was unable to get a firm explanation of why the Porcupine Club, originally char- tered to operate only in Tim- mins, Ont., was able to run four years in Hamilton with the knowledge of provincial authori- ties and with the conviction doubly disqualifying it for the last 11 months. The club's charter eventually was cancelled in 1959, the com. mission was told by Deputy Pro- vincial Secretary R. J. Cudney as it pursued its inquiry into the During examination of Mr. Cudney, Liberal party counsel Willard Estey declared there has been "fundamental misuse" of club charters. Licences which had fallen into disuse had been revived by new owners--some- times with the purchase price becoming known to the police. However, he said, instead of using its power to cancel char- ters which had become subject to forfeiture through disuse, the authorities had allowed them to 'be placed in operation until gam- bling convictions eventually ren- dered them liable to revocation again. CITES 'PRESSURES' Mr: Estey said it was appar- ent 'various pressures' had been brought to bear on offi- cials, either to slow down can- cellation procedures or to issue} letters patent. | He suggested more. pressures phase of its investigation deal-|should be built into the legisla-) ing with allegations of govern- tion dealing with clubs, rather} ment maladministration of "so-f#han leave a large degree of flex- cial" club charters. \ibility in the hands of officials.

For more than two years a typewritten note telling of the sale of Toronto's Queen City Bridge and Chess Club charter nestled in a file in the provin- cial secretary's department, ap- parently unnoticed, until the Although the club's charter is also subject. to forfeiture be- cause of long disuse before 1955, Mr. Cudney said this weapon is} not being used at the moment, | except as a threat to have club) operations suspended while the} appeal is threshed out. | McCorkell On Trial In Death Of Boy, 3 TORONTO (CP)--Gary Alex- ander McCorkell, 19, went on trial in assize court Tuesday, charged with the capital mur- der last April of three-year-old Ronald MacLeod. McCorkell was charged after the bodies of the MacLeod boy and Michael Atkinson, 2, were found in a furniture warehouse on Lakeshore Boulevard West. club's charter was cancelled for) other reasons. | NAME LAWYERS | 3, One Toronto lawyer was| mamed as having sold a char- ter, and others were named as having been solicitors for clubs. 4. The commission heard of long delays in the cancellation by provincial authorities of charters known to be used by! gamblers and bookies, in some cases with the police pressing vigorously for action. 5. One Toronto club--The At- las--whose ciosure has been rec- ommended off and on by the po- lice since 1943 was due finally to arrive at a 'pre-cancellation hearing Oct. 11, but this was| adjourned indefinitely because of Mr. Cudney's presence at the inquiry. Police report it is a hangout for gamblers and thugs. 6. The file on Toronto's Acme Card and Social Club, closed this year for illegal gaming, has been missing from the provin- cial secretary's de part ment since February, 1960. jment after they went to the The Crown said McCorkell took the two boys to a base- warehouse indecently assaulted them and suffocated them in trying to keep them quiet when he heard someone coming.The prosecution continued that he took the bodies upstairs and put them on a bed. Dr. Hugh Van Patter, a path- ologist, said the MacLeod boy died from asphyxiation due to smothering. The case is continuing.
