applications have been refused after

The camps have also drawn fire from

Betting On Horses Is Only Hope.

The last Rockville Fair has been hell
unless permission to allow betting on hors'
racing should be obtained, was the opinion
of Clarence L. Gilpin, president of the fal
association. in discussing the financial re-
suit of the three-day exhibition which
ended on Thursday of last week.
At the beginning of the fair the asso-
citation was more than $4,000 in debt
Mr. Gilpin said, while the fair this year is
expected to result in a deficit of $1,000
or more.
I'VE have made a desperate effort for
the past several years to make the fair a
success, Mr.. Gilpin stated, land have come
to the conclusion that money cannot be
made without revenue that betting on race
horses would produce and the crowds that
such betting would draw"
The $4,000 deficit which was faced
before the present fair began is the result
of losses over period of several years. it
was stated. This $4,000 is in the form
of a mortgage on the fair grounds and
notes in various banks of the county.
The fair operates on a budget system.
Mr.. Gilpin stated, which includes all ex-
penses of the fair proper and interest on
the notes. insurance and other items. The
receipts this year did not meet that budget.
he said.
Asked what was the possibility of secur-
ing permission to allow pari-mutuel betting
on the horse races. Mr.. Gilpin said that
there was little hope of it at this time.
The county circuit court has been petit
toned several times in the past to allow
this, he said. and has turned it down each
time. A bill was also put through the
legislature several years ago to allow bet
ting on the races at the fair but it was
vetoed by Gov Richie.
A final decision as to what will be done
will be made at meeting of the board OF
directors of the fair association, Mr.. Gilpin
stated but the fair seems doomed.
Other officials of the fair association are
of practically the same opinion as Mr..
Gilpin. The lack of better crowds and the
lack of money for better prizes was also
attributed by them to the rule against
betting.
"Pari-mutuel betting would certainly put
this fair on its feet" Ohio C. Trundle. Sec
rotary of the fair association. stated. At
tention was called by Mr.. Trundle to the
fact that practically all other county fairs.
such as the Hagerstown. Cumberland and
Marlboro Fairs, allowed betting through
mutuel machines.
Better prizes could be offered to all
classes of exhibits if race betting was al
lowed. Mr.. Trundle stated. This would
also enable the association to fix up the
race track and install starting stalls for
the horse races, he said. Considerable
difficulty was evidenced during the race
program in getting the horses started due
to the lack of stalls or barrier.
The starter used a flag. but most of the
horses. accustomed to the stalls used at
other tracks, either were left at the post
or broke before the flag went down

Our Challenge.
BY Miss Lillian C. Sundergll. of Union
Bridge, Md.


The bugle call. the trumpets play.
They sound and sound again
As echoes from the hills away.
Spread outward DER the plain.
Oh, Duddra clan, to action rise
And scale the mountain heights.
Come break the bonds. indifference ties.
In brotherhood unite.
Through decades past the Duddra name
Our land has wandered DER;
Has mingled with renown and blame.
And claimed both rich and poor.
The Duddra past in records leave
A history to read;
But. it's the future. ours to weave;
To rear new Duddra seed.
To write new lines that wealth unfold;
Records that are to be
Must guided shine with letters gold
For our posterity.
Not gold that sounds of tinkling ore,
That feasts on selfish greed;
Not gold that earth alone can store.
That fills no soul-felt need;
But gold. of name. that's indebted,
For honest standards known
A name you're proud to give your child
And one. with pride. he'll own.
The gold Of character must too
Upon our pages stand.
Nodded of courage strong and true.
That speaks Of self-command.
Then up arise Oh. Duddra clanl
There's work for us to do.
Send back the echo Of. 1--WE Can
In fervor fred anew.
