NEW YORK, Dec. 19.-Horse-

The chief reason for the long
Jump, OF course, was the fact that
racing got back on a full peace
time schedule Of 2,433 operating
days after its war-rationed 1,7SS In
1945.
From the 2oth State, Nebraska,
came word only that the amount
bet is not matter Of public record,
that the track promoters decline
even to estimate the figure and
that the State doesn't cut in on
the pie anyway.
In several spots on the national
racing map this year, notably New
York, Maryland, Delaware and Illi-
nois, the average daily bet per per-
son dropped of in varying degrees.
In New York, particularly, the
investors undoubtedly were slower

BY The Associoisd Press

MELBOURNE, Dec. 19.-Opposi-

to American Davis Cup squad MEM
bers playing in exhibitions in this
country after the cup matches
brought the somewhat heated dec
laration from Walter L. Pate, non
playing captain, today that he had
no intention of trying to dictate
to his boys.
"As long as they obey the rules

for playing they can do anything
they please as far as I'm con-
cerned," Pate said.
Three of them, Billy Talbert,
Gardnar Mulloy and Tom Brown,

he added. What they do in the
meantime is their business"
No Approval Requested.
What threatens to develop into
an awkward controversy arose
when officials OF the Australian

the Americans had agreed to play
several exhibitions in small "bush'
towns. These were arranged by
sporting goods firms and. no etort
was made to obtain approval. eithel

Brown should play In the tourna-

uary 4, rather than In a smaller
meet at Manly the same week.
'I say that the boy has the right
to play in whichever tournament
he prefers" Pate said.
u. S. Players Peeved.
The American players were quite
peeved about the developments and
it wouldn't be too surprisingly if
they pulled out of Australia alto
gether after the cup matches next
week.
When it was suggested to Pate
that the Australian body might re-
move the amateur status Of the
Americans if they persisted in play
ing unsanctioned exhibitions, he
snorted:

start something like that"
