MIAMI, Fla, Jan. 12.-Warfare on
race track gambling by Florida cru
saders has aroused local business
men to a defense of horse and grey
hound racing and Jai Alai games.
The Miami Chamber of Commerce,
Realty Board and Hotel Mems Asso-
citation have presented resolutions
favoring continuance of the sports
to Governor John w. NEertin.
Meanwhile both sides are awaiting
the decision of the State Supreme
Court on an appeal against an in
junction which closed the Pompano
race track last week. The Miami
Jockey Club plans to open its meet
here tomorrow. although an injunc-
ton against its operation may be
sought.
The hotel mems association
adopted a resolution reading, in part:
Miami has suffered by the reaction
of the real estate market, the hurri-
cane and vicious propaganda by the
enemies of Florida. Therefore Miami
has never needed the attractions as
it does at the present time.
we have invested millions of dol
lars in our hotels and given employ
ment to thousands of people. We
know that if racing is stopped here
our investments will depreciate to
an alarming extent, and a great
many of our customers will be
thrown out of work.
I'VE earnestly urge that you make
every effort to prevent any unfavor-
able reaction against racing as it is
conducted in Miami today"

Front Bit of Basketball Strategy Escape Pursuing qua

Of the so-called pivots, or stop turns
and when used cleverly is a very
effective method of getting a shot or

The accepted time for using this
front turn is, in general, when the
man with the ball is pursued by the

him.
The pictures show such a situa-

with the ball has been dribbling
