Everything Is At Belmont But the Public
A Thaw Necessary if
Track Is to Prosper
By HENRY M'LEMORE
United Press Staff Correspondent
NEW YORK, May 14 Everything

pointed to a new record in Ameri
can horse track betting. The local sun was very hot. The local skies were very blue, Brenda Frazier, once the nation’s glamour girl No. 1, was there in the front rank of the two-dollar show bettors. There were fashion parades, with mannikins adrip with fox, sable and skunk walking beneath the trees in the splendor that only rented clothes can furnish. There were the members of society, too, their umbrellas furled, their wrists slashed to show their blue blood, and their mouths open to show adenoids that should have been gelded long ago. There were custom clothes and custom cars, bench-made shoes and bench-made brains. There was a broad “A” for every diamond clasp, and a bowler for every bore, But the public wasn't there. In short, Belmonts haughty hens had come home to roost at last For too many years, almost 40 in fact, Belmont has prided itself on its ability to snoot the rabble, Under the guidance of Joseph E. Widener, a butchers boy who learned class distinction betore he Jearned the qifference between a pork chop and a slice of liver, Belmont consistently made it known that it was founded for gentiemen— not the gentry Now, with pari-mutuel betting and Alfred Vanderbilt arriving together, Belmont has thrown open its aristocratic arms to the rabble. It aches to embrace the butcher, the baker and the candlestick maker if thev have two bucks to push over the counter. But these gentlemen of the trade in the past few years have learned to draw pack from a racing plant where gatemen. using the eut of a mans clothes as a allotted him his proper place even if that place was improper. The new president, vanderbilt, doesn’t like this. one of the few youngsters with millions who also has millions of friends. He knows that In front of the pari-mutuel window all men are equal, and that there IS no distinguishing between 10-dollar bills that have been played on a horse. Mavbe the warmth of derbilt personality can thaw out dear old Belmont If it doesn't, New York's attempt to match Santa Anita, where a movie star 1s given fust as much consigeration as the next fellow, will result in cobwebs being spun over half the selling windows,
