It begins with the legions of older folk with their cupfuls

paying less than $20 for a round-trip bus ticket from New
York City or Philadelphia, they get back a sum equivalent to

Gambling has had little suecess trying to persuade casinos,
hotels and bus companies to display a hotline number for
gamblers in trouble because of their vice.

Many people, of course, are governed by their inner
voice of reason.

“I enjoy it, it's a day out,” says Annie Pistilli of
Brooklyn, N.Y., who says she comes a few times a year and
plays the slots, never winning or losing a bundle. Some are

not so governed.
SOME PLUNGE

James, a former bookmaker who works at one of New
York City’s top restaurants, used to travel to Atlantic City
on weekends. While his friends dabbled at the tables, he'd
plunge.

He began setting up $10,000 weekend gambling
accounts, entitling him to red-carpet treatment which, he
says, was always a worth-while investment for the casinos.

“The driving force is the power and the action, the
power associated with going there with a first-class attitude
and believing you could transfer all of that into a profit — a
total freeride,” he said. “If you had a compulsive nature, you
felt blessed with a magic touch . . . but it was really rotten

ago. In New Jersey, the number of meetings held by the

group each week has tripled to more than 50.

Atlantic City itself provides strong incentive for visitors
to stay inside the 11 casinos, The city is a ramshackle, often
menacing place.

The 10-kilometre Boardwalk — which lent its name to
the prime property in the game of Monopoly — is shabby,
although in better shape than most of the other streets in:
the city whose names are used in the board game.

There are certain ironic similarities between the game
and real life,

The first of the hotel-casinos to land on Boardwalk, for
example, went on a land-buying drive, driving up the value
of lots that are still vacant.

As well, The Associated Press reported, “Three of the
last six mayors went directly to jail. They did not pass Go.”

Hopes had been high that Atlantic City would be
revived after becoming a gambling centre for the 60 million
people who live within two hours drive of it.

JOBS AND MONEY

Since the mid-1970s, when only 13,000 people in the city
of about 40,000 had work, the casino industry has created
40,000 jobs, although fewer than a quarter of the casino and
hotel employges live in the city.

Earrings on display

TORONTO (CP) — When
Marie Antoinette was trying
to flee murderous mobs in
Paris during the French
Revolution, probably the last
thing on her mind was what
would become of her favorite
diamond. earrings.

Even if she thought about
it, it's doubtful she ever
dreamed the glittering gems
that dangled seductively
down her neck — when she
still had one — would end up
in Toronto, then a North
York plot of mud, oak trees
and the remnants of a
burned-out fort.

Those spectacular pear-
shaped stones, one weighing
13 carats and the other 19,
are among the must-sees at
the Royal Ontario Museum's
latest retrospective, a collec-
tion of personal adornments
from more than 20 cultures,
spanning the last 4,000 years.

Called the Eye of the Be-
holder, the exhibition cele-
brates the museum's 75th
birthday and runs to Aug. 30.

Historians believe Marie
Antoinette’s earrings, given
to her by her husband, King
Louis XVI of France, were
seized sometime between her
arrest in 1791 and her march
to the guillotine two years
later.

They dropped from sight
for over a century, and
turned up on the ears of
Marjorie Merriweather Post,
a Washington sgcialite, who
purchased them from Pierre
Cartier of London in 1928.
They were donated in 1964 to

the

in waskiagtac.

Post also gave the Smith-
sonian a stunning Napoleon
necklace of 172 diamonds set
in silver and

DISPLAYS NECKLACE

On loan for the Ontario
museum's show, the 275-car-
at necklace was originally
given by Napoleon Bonaparte
to his second wife, Marie
Louise, on the birth of their
son in 1811.

Later, the necklace was
added to the Austrian crown
jewels.

Magazines

TORONTO (CP) — OWL
and Chicadee, two children's
magazines, have received
five awards from the Edu-
cational Press Association of
America for excellence in ed-
ucational journalism.

Chicadee, designed for
ages three to eight, won for

ages eight to 12, won for

ture writing and photogra-

107 in the piece known as the
Victoria-Transvall necklace,

One of, the earliest pieces
in the display is an Egyptian
