Ii Is interesting 10 look down
the turf path OF destruction left
by the Cellas since they have
been In the racing game. Their
operations for years were con-
fined 10 ST. Louis, and legisla-
ton wiped out the game there.
Then the Cellas got their
hands In the game at Chicago
and the legislature stopped the
game in Illinois. Down TO Hot
Springs the Cellas wandered
and the state fathers put the
"kibosh" on not only the Cellas
but also the American Turf as
ISOLATION tracks.
New Orleans next attracted
the Cellas and the state closed
its door 10 the bangtails. Then
the Cellas got into the Ken
lucky game with their millions
and the result is only too well
known. Their latest move was
10 buy In at Fort Erie. Ont
Louis Celia wanted bookmak
ers at Latonia, and because he
could not have them hurled de-

track closed altogether Horse
