Dec. 71 - (AP) - The New York Racing Commission renewed its assault today on the ftve-per-cent city and county tax on horse racing in this state and recommended its immediate repeal to forestall "dire results." In its bulky annual report cover- "ng all phases of New York racing for 1948. the commission hammer- cd away strongly at what it. termed "effects of excessive taxation" on the state's five major tracks. New York wfiigering was off 42 per cent as compared with 1945. Tine commission. headed by Ashley Trimble Cole, laid thc decline squarely on the extra five per cont imposed by the 1946 legislature. The additional tax against the pair-mutual pools was devised for the‘ benefit of New York City. Nassau and Saratoga Counties, (vhere New York racing is conduct- ed. This hiked the total levy to 15 per cent. The state gets six and the tracks four per cent of all money shoved through the windows. "It ts true that the sum of $383.- 02S,000, wagered in 1948, is not a plcayune amount," the commission said, "but in relation to the potedtial wagering inherent in the greatest sports venture of the world. it could be greatly improved by the cancellation of the added five per cent tax. - While attendance at New York tracks dropped off only by 183,885 persons as compared with 1947. wagering tumbled a. total of $19,- 596.156. In 1947. attendance was 4.584.163 and wagering totalled $352,624,464- compared with 4.440.778 and $333.- 028308 last season. There were 188 racing days in i947. and 196 this y-ear longest season in the state's history. "Statisfics presented show a net loss to the State Treasury of $1.- 340342 over last year and a steady decline since 1946." the report continued. From the extra five-per-cent levy. New York City got $12-3‘T5,3l6 this year, Nassau County. 83-384,- 873, and Saratoga County. $891.- 225 -— a total of $16.650.414. This was s reduction from the, 1947 total of $17.631-22l, and from $19,- 685,657 in 1940. Former Baseball And Hockey Player Dies vvvv w (By The Canadian Prers) HALIFAX. Dec. 27—Gerald J.

Dec. 2'7 - (CP) Moncton Hawks climbed back into sole possession of first place in the Maritime Senior Hockey League hes-e tonight by outscorlng the third-place Saint John Beavers 11-8 in a bruising game featured by three Density shots and three third-period penalties. The win snapped a three-game lifoncton losing streak and sent Hawks two points ahead of idle Dartmouth Arrows. Hawks punched in three goals in the first pe:iod while Beavers went scoreless. In the middle frarme they netted six more to Beavers two and were outscored 6-2 in the final period as Saint John put on a terrific rally. Fireworks flared in the third period when Patti Gagnon of the Hawks boarded Beavers Mike Demchuck. Before the referees could call the penalty. Demchuck went at the little Moncton winger with both fists flying. While they battled it out, Hawks netmlnder Al Tomari and Beavers defenceman Ralph Croucher tangled in another slugtest. Both Demchuck and Croucher while Gagnon picked up a minor for fighting and a penalty shot was called on Tomarl. Big Charlie Phillips, who had missed a penalty shot in the first frame. made good on the second try. The first shot was called when Bert Steele held Joe Szsbo while the Saint John forward was going in on the Moncton soal. Phillips actually had two chances on the second try. Tcrnari turned aside his first shot but referee Cy Taylor ruled interference when John (Kink) McDonald, Moncton forward, left his position along the boards to talk with Taylor just as Phillips skated in on Tomsri.
