Court Allows
Tropical Park
Racing License

TALLAHASSEE. Fla, Aug.
IS R-The Florida Supreme
Court. by q vote Of Al. has
thrown out an order Of the
State Racing, Commission re-
voking the racing permit and
license Of Tropical Park. Inc.
Of Miami.
The court also voided yester-
day the commissions order
that Maurice j. HirshStein, q
Tropical Park promotional en-
ploye last winter. be banned
from attendance at any pari-
mutuel operation in Florida.
The Racing Commission had
based its order revoking Tropi-
calls permit on q charge that
Saul SHERMAN, president Of
the race track. had bet more
than 100000 at the track last
season. with most Of his wagers
on credit. The commission
charged that at one time Sill
herman owed the track $50. 900.
The court. in its opinion
written by Justice T. Frank
HobSon. said the commission
order had been based on cir
cumstantial evidence which
failed to meet legal tests.
The court said circumstan-
tial evidence must give an in
ference Of guilt that excludes
every reasonable inference Of
innocence. The majority opin-
ion said the circumstantial
evidence did not meet this re-
quirement.
The Racing Commission
charged that Hirshstein had
placed more than 100 tele-
phone calls from Silberman's
ONCE during the 1861 Trop-
ical Park meeting to Philip
Gerson of Cleveland, who was
identified as q convicted book
maker.
The commission said Hirsh-
stein used the track presidents
telephone for fast transmission
OF racing results and to place
bets for SHERMAN.
