ASSEMBLY TO LEGALIZE RACE BETS IN STATE Pari-Mutuels for Ponies and Possibly Whippets to Win Favor. (Con tinned from P.i{ One) when they were unable to agree on amendment* tacked on In the senate. It is no secret that the amendment* were not the stumbling block to the bill's passage The bill was hamstrung per- Far! Crawford. then Speaker of the house, who appointed conferee who were sure to block passage until the session ended Mr. Crawford did not object so much to the horse* The dog racing angle was the one at which he balked, even though the measure had the blessing of Governor Paul V McNutt and wa* being pushed by the administrations legislationateenng group. However, Mr. Crawford will not be in the house of representatives at the coming session. Consequently, the legislation, undoubtedly repugnant to the more conservative of the citizenry, will not face so many handicaps. The state board of agriculture if> known to be working on a model bill in preparation for the session. The agriculture board needs money badly and sees in the pari-mutuels on horses the best method of getting it. The board, which direct* the destinies of the state fair, inherited a bonded indebtedness of approximately $300,000 from previous administrations. To retire that load, it has only a 3-mill tax and the fair must have a good year financially for all of the 3-mill tax to be applied to reducing the bonded indebtedness. If it has a profitless year, maintenance also has to come out of the tax. Co-operating with the state agriculture board is a legislative committee from the Indiana Association of County Pairs. The theory on which the pari-mutuel bill now is being drafted is that the state agriculture board would receive a portion of the rnutuel proceed? and the remainder would be divided among county fair associations which have been in existence for a prescribed number of years. However, the split of the niutuel profits may be changed, it was learned, because one of the states crying needs for new funds is for institutional building. The pari-mutue] bill backers now •re studying the mutuel systems of a number of states, including Illi-

non. Rhode Island. Texas, Orpgon, California, Kentucky. Maryland, Nevada and New Hampshire. There has been a race among the states in the last two years or so to legalize wagering on the horses. While some of the tracks, notably m Illinois, have not had a very profitable season this year, the reverse has been true among others and the feeling is that Indiana easily may become one of the latter. Rhode Island, for instance, innovated legalized betting this spring at a pretentious plant at Narragansett. In the spring and fall meetings. the mutuel “handle” has been approximately $23,000,000. Texas, in which tracks are springing up like real estate subdivisions mushroomed in the Coolidge era. has seen about 519.000.000 pass through the machines so far and still going.

ualize the golden stream into the state treasuries at “takes” of 8 and 10 per cent. Even if the sts‘e did not wish to share in the betting profits, it could derive a large amount of revenue from licensing tracks and from taking a share of the paid admissions. The Lake county legislative delegation Is know r n to be working on a bill to legalize the mutuels, because Lake wants a horse track very badly. Ft. Wayne also is reported anxious for a track. So far. there has not been a great deal of agitation by the dog track interests, but it is likely that the whippets would run in Indianapolis,

Gary, South Bond and Ft. Wayne and possibly at Terre Haute, Evansville and Jeffersonville. At present, it seems sure that the -state will legalize the mutuels. Apparently, the only question is how it will share in the proceeds. The bill which passed both houses in the last session, but failed of enactment, contemplated only license fees and a share of the admission proceeds as the state’s split. The track operators were to retain 6Li per cent of the mutuel “handle.” If the 6 1 2 per cent cut were boosted a trifle and the state also got a share, the state treasury would benefit to a much greater extent.

HAUPTMANN IS FOUNDNORMAL Lindbergh Murder Suspect Resents Examinations by Physicians. Hu Unltfd Prr* FLEMINGTON, N. J., Nov 22 Bruno Richard Hauptmann, the na11ion's most celebrated prisoner, was pronounced normal in a report made public today by three physicians. ! The mental and physical inventory of the man who will go on trial Jan. 2 on a charge of murdering Colonel Charles A. Lindbergh's in- | fant son was thorough and matter-of-fact. It was divided into two | clarifications, “general examination" and "special examination." When the physicians ended their 1 study they reported that Haupt- ; mann was indignant that he had : been subjected to such a thorough j examination. "The patient ex-

So why not check-up and snap back to the zest of eating and well being. You will find S.S.S. a great, scien-tifically-tested tonic —not just a socalled tonic, but one specially designed to stimulate gastric secretions and also having the mineral elements so very, very necessary in rebuilding the oxygen-carrying hemo-glo-bin of the blood to enable you to “carry on.” Do try it. Unless your case is exceptional, you should soon enjoy again the satisfaction of appetizing food and good digestion... sound sleep ... and renewed strength. Remember, “S.S.S. makes you feel like yourself again.” tDo not be blinded by the efforts of a few unethical dealers who may suggest substitutes.
