ROBERTS Daily News Staff Writer This story describes what goes on at Oak Grove country club these days. Except for the lessening of the tenseness and that is, by no means, all removed there have been few changes in the past year. There are no frills for the fancy gambler. It's all basic dice and cards. There are three dice tables available, a "blackjack" table and a dozen or so card tables.

At the ends, also held down 1 with scotch tape, are large red numbers printed on white paper, where the two pay-off men keep track of the "line" that is, bets with or against the shooter, and "come" bets on the shooter' making or failing to make individual numbers as they turn up. Sideboards about eight inches high have been installed in front of the "rails" on the table. At the time of the abortive raid last year, imO OF A SERIFS a piece of hose was placed under the protruding edge of the "rail" to keep the dice from lodging there. However, complaints of players I who like to "bank" the dice off the sideboards ton ed the management to install the boards.

ALL BETTING is with chips. I The minimum bet is $1, except for occasional "splits." The top limit is $100. That doesn't necessarily keep the customers' losses low. The top loss I have heard about so far is that of a Dayton man reported to have dropped $10,000 in one night.

And the house men frown on those who stand around, taking up space around the tables without placing frequent bets. As a matter of fact, frowns on the hard faces of the Oak Grove employes are sufficiently commonplace to create an uncomfortable cloud in the "country club" atmosphere. Actually, the "stick men" seem a bit irascible these days. They no longer limit their barked injunction to: "Get your bets down, folks."

One-third of the expected iield of 1800 had gone to the traps when the two near-perfect scores were posted.

Slackening of the warm spell was explained by the weather forecaster here as being the result of a cold mass of air which is moving across the Great Lakes region and northern Ohio. The southern edge of this cold front is near enough to Dayton to produce cooler temperatures and scattered thunder showers. Saturday's high of 80 degrees will be accompanied by showers throughout the day. Showers are to occurr on Sunday and again on Wednesday. Humidity for Friday and Saturday was placed at 64.

According to the forecaster, this is not exceptionally high. Temperatures for the five-day period, Saturday through Wednesday, will average near the normal for this season, 71 degrees. Maximums for the five days are to be in the 78-84 degree bracket. Low for Saturday morning is set at 64 degrees one degree higher than Friday morning's. The high for Friday was also to be one degree higher than Thursday's 83.
