April 6, 1967, Wall Street Journal, of just a few of the syndicate workers, American
born or naturalized, who moved in, along with Sadlo, as gambling aids in the
Monte Carlo room of the Lucayan Beach Hotel:

Frank Reiter, alias “Frank Ritter” credit manager
Max Courtney general manager
Charles Brudner, alias “Charlie Brud” floor manager
Dino Cellini craps supervisor
James Baker craps supervisor
David Geiger craps supervisor
Al Jacobs craps supervisor
Roy Bell craps supervisor

Max Courtney and Frank Ritter first made their marks as close associates of
Dutch Shultz, a leading bootlegger in the New York-New Jersey area who
unsuccessfully plotted the murder of Thomas Dewey, prosecutor in Manhattan
during the vicious Prohibition days of open gang warfare. When Dutch Shultz
died—he was machine-gunned by his rivals—Ritter and Courtney decided to
take up a less violent occupation. In the fifties they appeared in Montreal as
operators of a huge bookmaking operation. To relieve the pressure of large bets
made in Las Vegas, Chicago, New York, and other fast-buck areas, the two
men set up their operation in Canada outside of the reach of U.S lawenforcement agencies.
But someone must have snitched to the Royal
Canadian Mounted Police, for they soon galloped into Montreal and arrested
the two bookies. Expelled from Canada, Courtney, who is also known by his real
name, Morris (Moishe) Schmertzler, and Ritter, who often moved around under
the alias “Red Reed,” spent a number of years taking bets in the salubrious
atmosphere of the various gaming centers in the United States, finally showing
up as executives of the Monte Carlo Room in Freeport. Which all goes to prove
that tough a good hood may be down, he’s never out.
Cellini, Baker, Geiger, Jacobs and Bell were eventually investigated by the
Bahamian government and expelled from the Bahamas in March, 1964.


Yes, these fellas were all direct "with" Lansky. And most, if not all of them, are on the Lansky Syndicate Chart I researched and designed. Cellini, Sadlo, Ritter, Courtney, Brudner, etc.,
