Quiz For MdrYldnders
Answer to Question 1:

Answer to Question 1:
1t would seem that in the old
free State of Maryland horse
racing was not only a tradition,
but by all odds Maryland's most
popular sport. Z out of every 10
Marylanders have attended rae
ing. The average racing fan in
Maryland is between thirty and
forty with an upper middle class
income, a family and church
member. They go to the races on
an average of one to two times
a year.
Answer to Question 2:
For one thing, both are or should
be interested in the promotion of
good breeding farms in Maryland
and the fostering of the highest
possible class of horse racing in
America. Horse breeding farms
conserve Maryland land, take
land out of competition with COM
mercial farmers, provide jobs for
workers, make a market for
farm produce and add to the
prosperity of the State. High
class horse racing assures tax
money for MARYLAND and. makes
it possible for Maryland to hold
its own against the twenty other
states that have horse racing.
Answer to Question 8:
In spite of the fact that Pim-
leo handles millions of dollars,
