SG1Il dreaming OF ChOSe Gays
and night-in Miami. several
scenes and impressions recur.
For instance:
The horses at Hialeah don't
pay enough odds to make it
worth your time and money to
travel out there.
The dogs at Miami Beach,
of nights, give the gamblers
far better run for his money
and a fellow can often profit
by standing around and betting
the favorite to finish third.
And here's how they get
around the book-making law
or rather the law against it.
There are three windows, A,
B and C. If you want to bet
a dog to win, you approach
window A. If you like the
little rascal to finish second.
you approach the next window
and buy a "B" ticket and If
you think the dog should just
about finish in the money, you
go to window c.
The ticket you get back for
your 50, entities you to seat
in the grandstand. There is
nothing in the world to keep
you from taking a seat there
anyway, but that's what the
ticket says: This coupon en-
titles the holder to q seat
in the grandstand."
The pay-off windows are
marked correspondingly, A. B
and C, the gent back of the
wicket taking your ticket and
tearing a big chunk out Of it
as he gives you your take-just
as the pay off boys do at Bowie
or Laurel or any Maryland
track.
Paper shell pecans and citrus
fruit cost the same in Miami as
they do in washington, D. c.,
either on the table or on the
stands.
Miami and Miami Beach
are purely play towns. i'm
agine it would be very difficult
to knuckle down to work, that
is for any Of we NorthernerS.
You get your likker from the
bell boy just as you get your
suit pressed or your morning
newspaper, your cigars, Gig
aretteS, ice, ginger ale or any
other room service.
The brands run the gamut
Of Scotch, rye and bourbon and
often you can get rum, ver-
muth, good gins and creme de
menths. For the period of the
fight the prices ranged rather
high-$8 a bottle-but nor
mally are nearer IS. BY the
