MacPhai| Suspension
Believed First Step
Toward Bowie Exit
By Lewis F. Atchison

Larry MacPhail's suspension
from Maryland racing. pending
hearing before the State Rae
ing Commission on April %. ap-
parently is only the first step
toward the fiery sports pro-
moter's departure as president Of
Bowie.
The commissions hearing
will take up only the incident
in the clubhouse last Saturday
when MacPhail verbally lashed
out at several horsemen in Ian
guage not generally heard in the
box seats. The State ruling body
will not concern itself with a
later incident in which MacPhail
was arrested on charges of being
drunk and disorderly, and for
allegedly assaulting a State
trooper in a traffic argument as
he was leaving the track. He is
scheduled to appear in Hyatts-
vile Police Court on April 20
to answer those charges.
Yesterday the commission
charged that MacPhail's conduct
has been detrimental to the
best interests of racing" and Is
sued the order banning him from
the race track pending the hear
ing.
Pierce Temporary President.
Donald C. Lillis, chairman of
the Bowie Board of Directors,
named Howard S. Pierce, secre-
tary of the Southern Maryland
Agricultural Association, opera
tor of the track, to direct its
affairs until after the hearing.
There are rumorS that Pierce
will be named to succeed Mac
Phail, beginning with the fall
meeting.
There was speculation today
concerning MacPhail's imme-
diate future if he is ruled off
for the remainder of the meet
ing. Some horsemen were bet
ting yesterday that he would
never again set foot inside
Bowie. and he will not be al
lowed in the place during his
suspension. More believed he
will resign.
MacPhail loudly announced
Saturday that he is through
with racing in Maryland, but
nobody took him seriously. Yes
terday, however, some horsemen
expressed the belief that the
one-time baseball executive must
go in the best interests of Bowie.
MacPhail Plans Uncertain.
MacPhail was in New York
Monday night for the Sportcast-
ers' banquet and told John o.
Needles. his assistant at Bowie.
that he planned to remain there
yesterday. Needles said he knew
nothing of MacPhail's future
plans.
Meanwhile, the Associated
Press reported that Ch<rles
Terry, manager of MacPhail's
farm near Bel Air, said MacPhail
has cancer of the throat and has
been ordered not to use his voice
for at least two weeks.
Terry said the Bowie chief
tain was examined yesterday in
New York by DR.. James Moore,
who ordered him not to talk.
Needles said he thought Mac
Phail had a contract with the
syndicate which purchased Bowie
last year and rebuilt the track.
Needles added that he didn't
know the terms of the contract
or whether it could be bought up.
MacPhail is believed to own
only small percentage of Bowie
stock, and was in on the pur-
chase only as representative Of
the syndicate.

director, who has just returned
from GulfStream Park, Florida,
