NO EARLY HEARING
IN RACING APPEAL

The Court of Appeals has denied
the motion for an early argument Of
the case involving the validity Of the
Act under which racing Is conducted
at the Bowie track, Prince Georges
county. The court gave no reason
for It's action, but It Is understood
that the early hearing was regarded
ais useless, as racing Is already going
on and will end by the fifteenth OF the
present month. so that any decision
III the case would prove ineffective.
The suit was brought BIZ numerous
citizens OF Prince Georges county,
through Jackson III Raiston and
Frank M. stephens. II Is claimed
that the Act Is IN conflict with the
state constitution because It imposes
on the judges Of the circuit the non
judicial duty Ut issuing permits for
the racing.
