Tracks Plan 10 Seek
20 Extra Days il Tax
| Raise Is Considered
BY The Assoeiused Press

BALTIMORE, Dec. 3l.-Mary-

ready to ask for 20 more days
for the three mile tracks if the
Legislature considers raising the
tax.
The Maryland Racing Coun-
Gil, representing the tracks.
horse owners. trainers and breed
ers, outlined their position yes
terday to the Racing Commits
sion and sought its cooperation.
John A. ManfusD council pres
ident. said all were aware that
ways of raising more money for
the State will be one of the big
problems at the Legislature con-
vening in Annapolis next
Wednesday.
They were prepared to counter
with any move to raise the pres
ent 10 per cent tax by claiming
the same objectives could be
achieved by letting Pimlico.
Bowie and Laurel run 40 days
each. The three tracks now di-
vide 100 days.
eve appreciate the need of
the Legislature to raise more
money and hope it won't be nee
essary to touch racing" Manfuso
said. 1--WE feel that if there
must be additional revenue from
racing, it should be derived from
extra days of racing"
Manfuso said it is estimated
the extra days would produce
an additional 100000 for the
State. The half f-mile tracks plan
to ask that each of their meet
ings be increased from 10 to IL
days. 1t is estimated this would
raise another $175.000.
Manfuso said the extra days
would not be asked for Bowie,
Pimlico- and Laurel if no attempt
is made to increase the tax. He
said they were satisfied with the
present number and rate.
Laurel abstained from joining
in the plan because its officers
haven't decided yet if it is the
best way.
Eldred Rinehart, commission
chairman, refused to give Man
fuso an immediate answer on
whether the commission would
back up the councils proposition
if presented to the Legislature.

The action. believed unprece-

Is now zoned for lot sizes with

than to return to Tulsa where
I played in 1941 and 49," the

job offers a challenge which I
definitely want to accept"
Dobbs played at West Point in
1943-46, with time out for mill

brother, Glenn, were in the
same backfield.
