Court Hands Down
Bookmaker Ruling

LOS ANGELES, Oct. Is UR)-
Bookmakers accepting bets on horse
races which they dc not place at
the track are guilty of felony. a
ruling of the fourth district court
of appeals held today.
The opinion was handed down by
Justice E. j. Marks who pointed out
his ruling did not cover the legality
of bets taken by bookmakers and
actually placed at pari-mutuel WIN
dowS.
The decision was rendered in the
case of Guy Torrey, convicted in
Ontario of having taken bets on
races run at Santa Anita track. He
declared that the penal code pro-
vision under which he had been
convicted was repealed by the
amendment legalizing pari-mutuel
betting.
Justice Marks decision held that
the act amending the penal code
merely provided one exception un-
der which one form of betting on
horses was permissible in Califor-
MIA"
Justices Barnard and Jennings
concurred in the ruling.
