HLEGALITY CHARGED

Wallach claimed that the state
racing law was unconstitutional
and further argued that the asso-
citation was operating illegally be-
cause IL provided no tetalizatef to
register bets and compute the
odds.
His plea for an injunction was
turned down Aug. % when Cir
cult Judge Miller refused to sign
an order restraining the track
from accepting bets until totali-
zator could be installed. The
court held that business at the
track constituted gambling and
thus was not properly in the
courts jurisdiction.
ANOTHER MILLER DECREE
The bubble had burst into a
torrent by the time Judge Miller
handed down a ruling in another
case involving the track. Nov. II.
Property owners on State Fair
avenue sued to enjoin the track
from constructing new horse
barns to replace some destroyed
in fire.
Judge Miller refused to enjoin
the construction, but he declared
that the state. in accepting a
share of the money bet at the
track. became a partner in q
criminal enterprise.

Use Of Totalizatol
Long Argued
Makeshift Machine
Installed in 1912
BY LEWIS II. WALTER


A race track totalizator, a com
plicated mathematical ga e e
which led TO the indictment ir
Lansing Saturday Of former state
Republican boss Frank d. Mckay
has always been a controversial
topic at the Detroit race rtack.
In 1912, race track heads finally
yielded 10 a persistent clamor
from the fans and promised TO in
stall a totalizator. On May IL,
1912, mutuels manager George w
Lewis promised there would be a
totalizator installed by the time
the season opened two weeks
hence.
REAL TOTE IGNORED
/ The machine installed by the
track, however. was one devised
by their own engineers in an at
tempt to avoid the cost of the
generally accepted tote" pat
ented machine which is leased by
an eastern company for an in
stallation fee of approximately
$50, 900 and daily fee of one-half
of l per cent of all money bet al
the track.
On this basis the totalizator
companys rental fee at the track
last season would have beer
$500 a day or 1852 800 for the
105-day season.
The tracks ticket selling ma
chimes registered every ticket sale
on dials so that accurate final
odds were posted before each race
started.
ODDS NOT ALL SHOWN
These dials are checked in the
mutuels department by certified
public accountant appointed al
Gov. Kelly's order by state racing
commissioner William j. Bowling
However. the total pools bet on
each horse TO win. place and show
were not shown on the infield odds
board. Track officials said war
time shortage of vital parts made
il impossible to complete the in
stallation in this fashion! Many
fans held this unsatisfactory be-
cause they could not see the dials,
could not figure the odds them
selves.
OFFICIALS NOT NAMED
Mckay was indicted for assert
eddy bribing legislators to use
their influence to Keep the tote"
out of the Fair Grounds. The bill
stated specifically that "a totali-
zator' Ia copyrighted name) or
such mechanical equipment as
might be approved by the racing
commissioner. should be installed
Such a bill would have enabled
any commissioner TO close the
track if he did not approve the
equipment.
Nowhere In the indictment,
however, were legislators names
mentioned other than former Rep.
William Green. The indictment
did not mention any official Of the
Detroit Racing Association.
