Dick Applegate Relates How
To Tell Goats From Cam
els, Mudders, Fadders
Whole Thing Held Unsafe
By Dick appii-rate
( United ProM staff Correspondent)
(HUM (VP) Batting on the
horau at the reeent Mat fair
brought 139,800 through the pari
mutuel machlnei, but revealed a err
ing necessity for a simple explana
tion of the ternu uaed at race tracka.
The following gloaaarj of terma
may aid thoae who care to rlalt the
fair and rtak a few guilder next year.
1. win ticket: Thla la ticket for
which you pay II, naming the horae
which you bellere will win. After the
race the ticket la handy for making
confetti, atufftng Into the tosa o!
ahoee, or In arranging Interesting
color oomblnatlona la your tcrap
book. The borae on which you bold
a ticket will In no event run bett
than second. In which caae you
should have a:
3. Plaoe ticket: Which means you
think the horse you have selected
will either win or run second. It la
always safe to buy a plaoe ticket on
horse which you know will win. He
has different Ideas and refuses to
run at all. You are stuck with another
uaelesa bit of pasteboard and the
bone la stuck at the post. On rare
occasions your horse will run third,
leaving you out of the money but
resolved to enter the neit race
with a:
a. Show ticket: Which means that
you think your horse wilt be among
the first three across the line. The
error here la In ever believing the
animal you aslected waa a horse. He
might look like a horse in the stall,
or even in the paddoek, but when
he cornea onto the track he remlnda
you vaguely of a dromedary. Tola
vagueness la quickly dispelled and
you are sure he Is a dromedary. In
desperation you will sell your a2
ticket for So ccnta, In which case
the beast will shed his lethargy at
the post and romp home a winner,
paying S204.
Several other terms need a light
going over. They are:
Ticket window. Tms la where you
put your money on a goat whtcb
can't lose, but always does. Look for
the sign above the door reading
"Abandon hope all ye who enter
here."
Pay window. A mythical establish
ment supposedly located somewhere
In the general neighborhood of the
track. You will have no occasion to
Investigate the matter closer.
Qulnlela. Thla Is where you select
two beasts of burden to come In first
and second. One of your two oxen
will do thla but the second will run
Just out of the money. In case he
had run second you would have wor.
S233.4S. a nice Item to keep recalling
to friends while toufhlng them for
10 cents on which to eat the en
suing week. Occasionally you will hit
I a qulnlela through sheer stunldttv.
In which case everyone else at the
track will have had the same Idea,
and you will win S2.18. Since you
paid S3 for the ticket, the 18 cents
la clear profit. This will go to your
head, and you will next play a:
Long Shot. Long shots are horses
which have never won a race. They
are usually "Imported from Florida,"
and look aa though they had walked
all the way. Odda are posted as 30-to-1.
You have the profit from your
last race to Invest, so decide to take
a flyer. The odds Immediately drop
to 10-3, but your horse runs Inst,
which Is what made him a lone shot
I in the first place. Occasionally the
:ong snot win come home and pay
the fat gentleman In the next box
199.03. He will tell you he got his
Information from a:
Tipster, Tlpstera . are odd-looking
men In noisy clothing who will tell
you they have word from the stables
that "Number 8 goat Is a cinch to
win In a walk." No. 8 la luted at 40.
to-1 odds. There are two ways to
know whether a tipster knows what
he Is talking about. First way la to
take his tip and bet on the horse.
It will run last and you will know
the tipster waa goofy. Second way la
to not bet on the horse, In which
esse he will run first and you will
know you are goofy. Tipsters are very
irritating people to have around race
tracks. They will be glad, however,
to advise you on rainy daya which
horses are good:
Mudders. A m udder la a horse
which runs faster on a sloppy track
than he would on a dry one. Only
catch In thla Is that the other horses
In the race can do the same thing,
and beat your Ibex home by many
yards. Mudders should stay home
with faddera and take care of the
children. They are unsafe Invest
ments, so are all other horses. ,
FIND MAJOR BROOKE
WAS WIFE'S SLAYER
COLUMBUS, Oa.. Sept. 15 (UP)
MeJ. John R. Brooke, nuaky military
tactlci Instructor, last , night . vra$
found guilty of murdering his wife,
Elizabeth.
A. U. 8. district court Jury, after
10 hours and 30 minutes deliberation,
returned a verdict of guilty of firs;
degre murder, without capital pun
lshment. The verdict made a life
sentence mandatory.
PART IIME JOB NO BAR
UNDER OREGON SET-UP
SALEM. Ore., Sept. 18. (Spl.) Ac
ceptance of part-time or fill-in Jobs
does not remove Oregon workers frn
eligibility for unemployment compen
sation. In fact, the was so drawn
aa to encourage partial employment
when full-time occupation At regular
work Is unavailable, according to
commission officials.
The Oregon law provides for pay
ment of an amount equal to the dif
ference between a worker's weekly
benefit amount and five-sixths of his
wages from partial employment. He
la considered partially employed If
his remuneration for any week is leas
than five-sixths of the weekly bene
fit amount he would be entitled to
receive 11 totally unemployed and eli
gible. Workers earning $18 or more au
tomatically would be ineligible for
unemployed compensation Inasmuch
aa this amount la six-fifths -of the
maximum benefit amount.
Inquiries received at the central
office Indicate more unfamlliarlty
with the law's provisions for partial
benefits than with most features of
the Job Insurance setup. This has
been found true in other states, too,
press releases indicate, and some la
bor unions have adopted plans to
make the partial benefits formula to
their members.
