68,495,454 mark far outnumbers the 39,390,000 for auto
racing which was second highest.
Another reason is the money made available to the
state from horse race betting. In 1966, New York took in
$77 million in revenue from pari-mutuel betting on thorough
breds alone. A combination figure which includes the above
plus harness and quarter horse racing in New York came
to $148,173,782.
It can be noted from these figures that New York does
not face the revenue problems that Texas does. We think
its time that the people of Texas recognize the money-mak
ing advantages of pari-mutuel betting.
If they would quit listening to those dark-side opinions
and finally face the true facts of pari-mutuel betting—with
out emotional overtones—the answer would be evident:
Vote for pari-mutuel betting!
We join with the TRA in the support of pari-mutuel
horse racing for Texas. Lets make Texas a place where not
only cowboys ride horses for a living.
s Praises
Maroon Squad
Coach Gene Stallinga has some |
rood words for his “maroon"
squads as the second week of I
spring football training works |
toward completion.
The offense and defense first!
teams, which wear the maroon
jersies, have performed to ex
pectations, according to the Ag-|
gie mentor.
However, he was not happy I
with the second and third teams.!
He noted that some of them look
ed at times like they were letting |
down in effort.
The spring game is still morel
than two weeks away, so Stall-1
ings and his staff will be search
ing hard for those candidates {
they will call back for fall prac-|
tie*.
