DENVER (AP) - A district
judge here has found a New
York businesswoman guilty of
bilking a Denver bank of nearly
$1.3 million through a scheme
involving the transfers of huge
sums of money between banks
in New York City and Denver.
Denver District Judge Joseph
Quinn announced his verdict
after a week-long trial without a
jury.
Sandra M. Brown was con-
victed of swindling Denver’s
Cherry Creek National Bank in
a complicated transfer of funds
through 'checks and deposits
between that bank and Bank of
Hapoalim of New York. The
judge set a hearing on defense
motions for May 28 and con-
tinued $50,000 bond for Ms.
Brown.

Where Was Smith Gilley?
j
QUESTION FOR VOTERS
Is a Legislative District properly repre-
sented when its Representative doesn't
vote?
Just about everybody' sometimes has
sickness, business, or other conflict.
But missing 22 of the 62 House votes
selected as most important of the 1979
Session does seem a little much.
That was Smith Gilley’s official record
last year in representing Hopkins, Hunt,
and Rains Counties.
Were the missed votes important to
the people of the district? Read the fol-
lowing and judge for yourself!

Legislature passed, by two votes, the most im-
portant and controversial tax bill in history
