Maryland's racing schedule,
which had been due to resume
at Marlboro July 6, is up in
the air in the wake of a move
yesterday to seek a referendum
on the extension of dates for
thoroughbred and harness
tracks and the closing of three
minor tracks.
Also facing cancellation is
Laurel's August meeting, listed
for July 20 to August "a, a "a

After 21.413 signatures were
submitted yesterday to Mary

SCHEDULE MUDDLED
Stote Senator Blocks
Deal for Race 7 racks

ANNAPOLIS, June / (AP).-
An effort by Maryland's three
major race tracks to buy two
smaller ovals in order to acquire
their dates seemed stymied
again today.
A State Senator, Paul A. Dori
Of Baltimore, yesterday filed the
signatures Of 21,413 voters to
prevent the transfer scheduled
to become effective today.
If Dorf can produce 1867
more valid signatures by July /
the question will be suspended
until the voters can decide one
way or the other in November
1864.
The issue is confusing.
Maryland's three big tracks
Pimlico, Bowie and Laurel-en-
tered into an agreement early
in 1862 to buy the SO days at
Bel Air and Baltimore Race
ways harness plant for 1913
million over a 10-year period.
At the same time, Timonium
a half-mile track near Balti-
more, signed a similar deal for
100000 to buy IL days of the
Cumberland track in Western
Maryland.
Both required approval of the
Maryland legislature and nei-
Their got out of committee last
year.
Earlier this year, the Legis-
lature approved it. But it also
okayed 36 more days-without
cost-to two other minor thor
oughbred and three harness
tracks.
Dorf said he initiated the
drive TO submit the Legislative
bill to the voters next year-in
the meanwhile blocking the
whole deal-mainly because Of
objections to the basic sale Of
days among tracks.
The bill itself. passed by the
Legislature and signed by Dem.

Nobody's about to fill Be

strange quirk of fate Dan Osin-
ski may wind up taking his
place.
OSinski, involved in the con-
troversial trade" in which
Belinsky was ticketed for a
train ride to Kansas City, COM
bined with rookie Charley Dees
to lead the Angels to a IA vic
tory over Baltimore last night
that extended the Orioles los
ing streak to three games.
A 29-year-old highlander
Osinski was sold by the AS to
the Angels last year. In re-
turn, Los Angeles was supposed
to hand over Belinsky at the
end Of the season. but Com
missioner Ford Prick vetoed
the move because Of its ir-

and Pena's homer, leaving with
the score 8-3.
In Osteen's last two relief
jobs he has given up six walks
and four hits, including two
home runs, in two-thlrds of an
inning.
Osteen is baffled, and asks
everybody for advice and coun-
sci. He honestly believes his
arm is sound, but he admits his
fast ball isn't what 1t once was
and that he has no curve. He
is perplexed and miserable. He
sat in front of his locker, his
head in his hands, long after
he had been taken out Of che
game.
Lock contributed a double
plus his homer and lost another
double on a shoestring catch
by Charles. In his last seven
games Lock has 10 hits for a
.444 average, but he hasn't had
much help.
Pena on Ropes
The Senators had Pena on
the ropes early, but he settled
down to pitch a five-hitter,
strike out seven and snap a
personal four game losing
streak.
Rudolph appeared to be out
Of trouble in the AS six-run
fifth. He had two out with
runners on first and second
when Doc Edwards hit a drive
to center. The ball bounced in
front Of Lock and glanced Ioff
his leg. Two runs scored, Civ
ing the AS a 4-3 lead. Edwards
wound up with a double on the
play.
Osteen then came in. Jerry
Lumpe greeted him with a sin

stopping at third. Osteen walk
ed Bobby Del Greco, loading
the bases. Pena, who had had
only a single in is previous
times at bat this year, clouted a
curving pitch to left that. hit
the foul pole for a home run.
The AS added their final run
in the sixth on a pair of singles
and a sacrifice fly.
NOTES.-The Senator'S pre-
game meeting consisted Of
is minutes Of talks by most of
the players in which they all
volunteered to get together with
positive thinking and put an
end to their losses.
During their home-run bonn
bardment, 1t appeared the
meeting produced results, but
that was premature thinking.
The Senators have announced
the signing Of Jim French of
Ohio University. a 2l-year-old
catch@ who was the most valu-
able player in the Mid-Atlantic
Conference. He will report to
Wisconsin Rapids next week.
French, 5 feet 10 and 1870
pounds. was signed for a figure
in excess Of $4,000, which means
he will be added to the parent
roster of 40 players. The Twins,
Reds and Cardinals were in

However, Osinski remained

the Angels was Osinski's first

in a roundabout way Belinsky

was sent down, who supplied

the indignities the Athletics
heaped upon the hapless Sena-
tors last night.
However, that was only one
of is Kansas City hits in a 9-3
rout of the Senators, and
probably as a result there was
an emergency meeting of Gen.
eral Manager George Selkirk,
Bucky Harris, his aide, and
Manager Gil Hodges in the
clubhouse after the game.

letics were unimpressed.
Everybody on the ball club
is jumpy.. and the latest trade
rumor, believed to be an au-
thentic one, is that Catcher
Ken Retzer will be involved in
a deal before the club returns
home next Tuesday. Retzer
went 0-for-4 last night and
his average sagged to .167. 1t
was learned that more than
one player will be involved If
the trade is made.

would be host to the players
and press at a dinner after to-
nights game, which starts at 6

Jim Duckworth (1-2) will pitch

Selkirk's role Of host may
have something additional to
do with team morale.
Selkirk, Harris and Burt
Hawkins, the travelling secre-
tary, went into Hodges club
house quarters Immediately
after thea game, and As minutes
later sent word they would not
accompany the team on the
bus back to the hotel.
Outfielder Bill futile, re-
leased last week by the Twins,

IF Nelson Rockefeller and John F.

President in 1864, the American people
will have "a choice between two rich
teams of brothers. Otherwise, the choice
does not seem to offer much breadth in
political philosophy.
Reading a raphical reveiw of the
three Kennedy and five Rockefeller

In the United States, republic has

mocracy more resembles monarchy than
it does democracy.
Russia is officially called the Union

Mob Propaganda

MOB scenes from many corners of the
w world seem to be the number one
action pictures on television. Recently
we have been impressed with the in
crease in showing mobs with the news
pictures.
While there appears to be a general
unrest among people everywhere, and
mobs make news, we do believe the
television networks are overplaying this
type of news.
News services sometimes appear to
get in rut, and everyday certain stories
for too long time. A reporter will turn
up an oddity, for example in California.
You may look for the same type oddly
to be found in place to place across the
nation. The point is that news areas
have much in common. A newspaper
reporter can find crime stories in al
most any given area, divorce stories in
almost any level of society, drunkenness
without looking for it. Some news media
thrive on this type of reporting. And
such it will be SO long as there are hui
man beings On the other hand, the
same reporter can find stories on the
better side Of life, and more Of them too.
1t appears to us that clearer pic
ture would be had by balancing off
some of the bad in mankind by publiciz-
ing the good And we are getting tired
of the perpetual mob scenes which greet
us from all parts Of the world.
