Following their next game which will be with the Saint Dunstan‘: University sextette the Legion- naires will have a lay-off of some two w s.

Daily Double Betting Is Dropped In New York

(By The Associated Press)

NEW YORK, Jan. l0 — Daily double betting, a wagering freak

313.90 for $2 in New York State, was abolished today when the New

State's five tracks permission to drop the feature.

In the daily double betting here the wagerer attempts to pick the winners of the first and second races. The entire pool of such bets ls divided among those who suc-

ceed.

Robert F. Kelley, spokesman for the New York tracks, said the turf plants sought elimination of the feature because they received nu- merous complaints from patrons who questioned the manual hand- ling of bets where machine bet- ting is provided by law.

The Racing Commission said in its statement that it approved the request because the "daily double has assumed the proportions of a gigantic numbers game. with the form of the horses concerned fre- quently overlooked.

The venturg was designed orig- inally to lure the customers to the park as early as possible and succeede‘ to the extent that $21,- 726,828 was bet in this mallneféiti went to

that amount, $1,400,000 the Stat; in taxes.

Top payoff in New York took place last Aug. 2'? when Huddle Bones, which paid $136.80 tor $2 in the regular mutuel wagering, and Junction City. a $20.40-for-$2 selection, combined for a $4,313.90 melon at a cost of .

Largest United States payofl on record is the $10,722.40 for $2 re- turned by the combination of Joy Bet and Merry Caroline at Wash- ingoton Park, Chicago, Aug. l4, l9 .

"I can see no. reason for it," he said, "and I do not think that C l associations are likely to follow suit. The New York Commission's A sons are not very clear."

Mr. Heffering said the question undoubtedly would be on the ag- enda of the I.C.R.A. meeting in Toronto Jon. if. .
