Gambling Act on Statutes of Centen-

IBy Associated Press.1

DENVER, March 12.-Of1cials Of
the Overland Racing association are
quietly going ahead with their ar
rangements for spring and fall race
meetings, the latter to be held in con-
nection with the interstate fair and
exposition. No announcement will be
made of the program, however, until
after the adjournment of the present
legislature, the promoters not wishing
TO arouse opposition of any kind.
There is a bill pending concerning
race meetings, introduced by Repre-
sentative Hiltz, who is secretary of
the association, This measure is being
allowed to pursue it's course without
attracting particular attention. The
only real menace to racing In Colo
RADIO at all times is the anti-gambling
law now on the statute books which
prohibits gambling in any form. This
was called into action last summer
after the regular summer meeting had
opened by persons themselves inter-
ested in the game, but who had become
dissatisfied with the people then in
charge of the meeting. 1t Is said this
element has now become reconciled
and will make no opposition to the
coming meeting and that all danger
of internal warfare Is passed.

Haines slowly as he held the girls
