Bowie to Winterize
For Feb. Il Opening

days Of racing in the Spring"
Maryland is expected to become
a winter headquarters for racing
stables. The three major tracks
will keep their stable areas open
throughout the winter and dis
continued stall rent to encour-
age horsemen to remain.
| The tracks announced an
agreement to put the new date
schedule on a f1ve-year basis.
Chairman D. Eldred Rinehart
said that legally the commission
could not guarantee the dates
over such a long period but
that it was his intention to
stick to the setup, on a per-
manent basis, except for possible
minor changes.
Assuming that New Jersey
does not advance its spring
opening earlier than April rs,
the 1857 Maryland schedule
provides the track with 98 days
free of Jersey competition next
Year.
The days left in May be-
tween Pimlico's close and Della
ware Parks opening on May 20
will be used to make up any
postponements caused by the
weather. There is also an IL
day gap between the Marlboro
meeting, which ends the minor
track season on October 10, and
the reopening of Laurel Oc-
tober 81.
John A. Manfuso. adviser to
the president of the National
HorSemen's Benevolent and
Protective Association and q di-
rector of the Maryland division,
told the commission that the
IhorSemen indorse the new
schedule and complimented the
tracks for the imagination and
intelligence demonstrated by the
arrangement. He said It would
