Stand Operator Wins Acquittal FREEHOLD. -George Cafantaris, 37, Spring Lake, operator of a Long Branch, beachfront custard stand, acquitted yesterday of bookmaking last Sept. 15 at his store on the Long Branch pier. The jury before County Judge John C. Giordano debated less than 10 minutes in reaching the verdict, ending a two-day trial.

It was one of the quickest decisions on record, court attaches said. Cafantaris denied yesterday that he took bets on the September date, or at any other time, admitted He wagered on horses occasionally at race tracks, and asserted he had no knowledge of the origin of an alleged bet slip found on the floor of the store. Cut in zig-zag fashion and termed a "paper doll" by Defense Counsel William J. O'Hagan, the slip was the only item on alleged gaming paraphernalta admitted into evidence. Cafantaris had been arrested by Branch police who testified Monday that they had warned Cafantaris against bookmaking on Aug.

23 in an earlier raid. Cafantaris disputed police testimony that he had a pay telephone in his store and produced a bill indicating it is a private telephone listed in his name. He said that when police arrived on Sept. 15 he was sunning himself outside his stand and quoted Detective William Walling telling him "we are here to take phone calls." They received three and left. Police previously said that one caller hung up, another gave a series of bets and that the third relayed information about baseball teams.

Cafantaris said the only reason he had the telephone installed was so that in 1949, he could keep in close touch with his ailing wife who has since died. Asked by Assistant Prosecutor, John M. Pillsbury if he had ever been convicted of a crime, Cafantaris said that in 1940 a federal court jury in Florida convicted him of conspiracy to violate the Mann act and that the court put him on probation for two years. He said he had had nothing to do with any law violation but had companied a man and wife and the man's sister-in-law to Florida prior to his arrest. The man was subsequently jailed, he said.
