Shifflett currently is equipped

Griffith Put OFF Trial
Dresser was anxious TO ele-

spring DESPITE the youngsters
inexeperience. He had pitched
only a half season at Erie, win

was ready to take his chances
on Garland making the grade.

Hearing Starts
Today on Track
Merger Plan
Bowie' Objections
Likely; Commission
Attitude Awaited

ANNAPOLIS. Mar. IA (P).-
The Maryland Jockey Clubs pro-
posal to shift Pimlico racing to
Laurel, now before the General
Assembly. was due for an airing
today before the Senate Finance
Committee.
1t was known in advance that
the strongest objection would be
voiced by spokesman for Bowie.
Maryland's third mile track.
The one view awaited is from
the Maryland Racing Commits
sion. 1t held a hearing on the
proposal, but decided to take no
stand in advance of legislative
consideration.
d. Eldred Rinehart, the chair
man. has promised to give his
views if asked. From past indi-
cations. they would be favorable
to closing Pimlico and trans
ferring its 40 days to Laurel.
The Legislature in l949 turned
down proposal to merge the
two tracks. This proposal is in a
slightly different form. No mer-
ger as such is planned. Instead.
the two racing associations would
continue in existence and oper-
ate separate meetings at the
same track.
Donald Lillis. Bowie president,
has charged the plan is one of
monopoly being engineered by
the Laurel owners.
] He has taken exception TO the
contention that Pimlico lacks
room to expand.
Il would be delighted and well
come the opportunity of operat-
ing Pimlico.' he said.
Lillis also argues that the
wall that Pimlico is inadequate
| is not supported" by the record.
Its daily average betting has
been the highest of the three
major tracks the last two years.
he points out.
The Bowie president claims
/ the concentration of 80 days at
Laurel would ultimately force
1 his track out of business.
