May (By the Associ- FINANCIAL ated stock ticker recorded fresh triumphs for the bears Saturday in a tumultous two-hour session that broke all volume records for Saturday and that saw net declines of 5 to 18 points in scores of leading issues. In general, the pattern of the market resembled Friday's. There was heavy liquidation at the opening blocks of 5,000 to 80,000 shares, representing large bundle of overnight selling orders came on the market.

A ghost of a rally appeared after the first outburst had been assimflated, but then the market staggered downward under the burden of another load of last minute sales. Transactions in the final 10 minutes reached the enormous total of 1,627,900 shares, bringing the day's business to 4,867,500 shares, the largest for twohour day in the market's history. An hour and 56 minutes after the closing gong the ticker tape printed the last sale. The character of the selling likewise differed little from Friday's, It WAS repetition of the story of weakened margin accounts, persistent short selling by powerful operators and liquidation by pools whose holdings of stocks had been only moderately diminished since the market reached its 1930 peak early in April. And once more there was virtually no covering at the close.

So much action was crowded into the short space of two hours that the movement seemed at times to be assuming more substantial proportions than it actually attained. The price Index for 90 stocks lost 5.8 points, exactly the PItent of the Friday lose, and the Individual groups--rails, industrials and utilities--recorded changes closely approximating those of the previous session. As is usual during violent movements in either direction, the market was filled with rumors. Prominent professional operators were reported to have turned uncompromisingly bearish. Some circles professed to see political maneuver in the market's action, pointing out that the decline reached its greatest violence immediately after Hoover's statement on business.

50 St. Louis DaD Frau. a a few moments at one performance and the circus management, listening to him perform solo, learned how bad he really was. After successfully fighting off several other aspirants, once nearly at the cost of his life, Crofton got the coveted job of ticket seller and stayed with the circus for year. He Joined the Navy After that he took various jobs in department stores and elsewhere, coming as far east as Chicago In his rovings, until war broke out in 1917.

On his brother's advice he applied for enlistment in navy and Was put I to work Installing machinery in the famous ship Bear at Mare island. In Crotton returned to San Diego and got a job through "Booze Beyers" dealing twentyone at the old Sunset Inn at TiJuana. This Wan the first real gambling experience he had, but when miners struck gold at Tonopah and the rush began Crotton went there and opened up small gambling house. Too Inexperienced to bank the games himself, he hired fessional and 800n learned the ropes. Although that venture netted him only about $12,000, he had struck his metier and from then on his financial rise was meteorio.

He opened places successively at Mexicali, Nogales and Naco. At Nogales he met Wirt G. Bowman and when, on returning to San Diego In 1925, he learned that Carl Withington, owner of border cencessions, had died, he urged Bowman to take over Withington's interests. Becoming racing enthusiast, he acquired an interest in the Forelgn Club, Tijuana, with Bowman, which directorship in the old Tijuana Jockey Club with James Coffroth and Baron Long. Coffroth passed out of the picture with the building of the new track at Agua Callente which proved brilliant success.

$2 Limit at Tijuana During the winter season there are as high as eighty-eight games going on in the casino during single night. The Tijuana place is the least pretentious of the three places he runs and the limit there la $2 number at roulette. At the Agua Callente casinos there is a limit of $10 a number. However there is a "gold room" at the main Agua Callente casino where special games are held, when the limits are raised. It 1s at the casino in Agua Calente that Raoul Walsh, with the urging of Crofton, bought from John A.

Coburn for $15,000, the horse that the next day won the Derby and a purse of $80,000 tor his new owner. Once Al Jolson was sitting with Crofton, when a friend on his way to the tables spoke to the blackface comedian, "Jolson, you're in 50-50 on this game," Jolson nodded and forgot about it until a halt hour later he was told that his share in the loss was 000. Jolson is good loser, says Crofton, but at that he turned a shade paler and hurried to the tables, watching the play. He must have brought luck, for they won back their losses and when they were each $1,600 ahead they stopped. 32-B.

UNION SEE MeTH STARTED WITH CRAP GAME: NOW HE IS WEALTHY James Nugent Crofton, Part Owner of the Agua Caliente Track, Makes a Million Dollars a Year By KARL MILLER NEW YORK, May the rise to fortune of James Nugent Crofton from the days he ran a poker and "craps' game during the 1921. gold strike in Tonopah, the 85-year-old part owner of the new race track and concessions at Agua Callente, who is in New York looking for real race horse, has averaged better than $1.000,000 a year. Crotton shares' with Wirt G. Bowman and Baron Long the vast profits accruing from the new JAMES NUGENT CROFTON 000,000 track and from the Callente hotel, dog track, bath house, golf course and two gambling casinos that make up the Agua Callente playground. He owns another casino at TIJuana and four miles from Agua Callente, on the American side, he has a beautiful home and a large ranch, where he and Mrs.

Crofton run a stock farm and raise show horses. That's their real business now, he says. In New York Mr. and Mrs. Crofton are et the Ritz-Carlton.

They will visit the various race tracks for about A. month and "Jimmy" Crotton will scout around for a horse that's fit to enter next year in the big race at Agua Callente, a race that held out $140,000 in stakes to the winners when it was run on March 21 this year. Crofton himself gives that small venture in Tonopah as his real start. His life before that was more or less haphazard. Born in ville, on January 28, 1895, he lived there ten years while his father struggled to make a living out of the combined jobs of proprietor of the town's hotel, livery stable, ranch, post office and general store.

He moved with his family to The Dalles, a tough town of 4,500 inhabitants and 25 saloons, where his father bought an interest in a little hotel, the Umatilla house. Then one night, when he was 15 he ran away. To hear him talk about it, there in his room at the Ritz-Carlton, brings up no picture of a scared little boy slipping out of his father's house at night trying to keep back tears as he set out for whatever fate might bring him in the wide world. Rather it conjures the picture of a self-reliant youngster calmly and unhesitatingly walking from that house, never looking back, dryeyed and unperturbed at what lay before him. His first Job was with pick and shovel, helping to build a railroad, but he soon left that to work his way to Los Angeles where he answered a want ad for a bus in restaurant.

In those days "Jimmy" Crofton thought A bus boy drove a truck but the restaurant proprietor pointed out to him his mistake as well as the nearest way out. He did get a job in a restaurant finally, however, and various other ones between Los Angeles and San Diego until, when he was twenty, he married Miss Vera Emrle at Reno. The need for steady income then assumed more importance a and Crofton got a job with Barnum and Bailey's circus, which happened to be in town. For awhile he was one of three buglars that performed nightly but came abruptly to an end when him two partners faltered for EMBARRASING MOMENTS tered early $11.00 0 11,25: odd lots tive. top wooled lambs shorn lambs shorn ewes $4.00 toP, 4.50.

Prospect CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE CHICAGO, May 8 (AP)--Despite lively transient rallies, wheat Saturday ed the stock market down hill, overwhelmed at the last by heavy selling orders that came rushing from eastern sources.

May delivery of wheat broke the season's bottom -price record and touched 8.8 low as bushel, whereas the average value here from 1890 to 1929 Inclusive has been $1.21 1-3. Contributing to weakness of the wheat market Saturday as forecast of frequent showers over the entire grain belt throughout the coming week. Closing quotations on wheat were nervous at nearly the day's lowest level, cent to centa a bushel under Friday's finish. Corn closed to cent off, oats unchanged to cent up, and provisions unchanged to cent down. Corn was swayed by the action of wheat and by reports that corn planting la progressing under ideal conditions.

Oats owed their strength to absence of any such heavy selling 88 developed 1p other grains. Provisions went lower because of scattered selling which found buying support slow. Wheat: May July Sept. 1.05½ Dec. 1.10%.
