nationwide resumption after
paying its war-time obligation to
the government with a five
month shut-down.
There will be at least two
tracks, Narragansett in Rhode
Island and Sportsman's Park in
Chicago, in operation by this
week-end. By the middle of
next week two others, Pimlico
at Baltimore, and Churchill
Downs at Louisville, Ky., will
have their belated spring meet
ings under-way, preliminary to
the running of the two great
three-year-old classics, the Ken
tucky Derby and the Preakness.
Trains Banned
Turfmen moved at almost
thoroughbred speed themselves
in getting schedules arranged
after the announcement by War
Mobllizer Fred M. Vinson in
Washington yesterday that the
government ban against opera
tion of the tracks had been lift
ed. Plans were almost completed
for the running of the 71st Ken
tucky Derby on June 2 and the
Preakness at Baltimore was set
tentatively for the following Sat
urday, June 9. The third big
race for three-year-olds, the Bel
mont stakes in New York, will
be held either on June 23 or
June 30, metropolitan racing of
ficials indicated.
Arcadia, Cal., May 10 (U.R)
Scenic Santa Anita race track,

ings, today was reported to have
settled for a 35 or 40 day meet
ing to make way Tor a summer

New York, May 10 (U.R) The
conviction of Harvey Stemmer
and Henry Rosen for conspiracy
and bribing five Brooklyn col
lege basketball players, was cit
ed today by Judge Louis Gold
stein as a warning to "those
chiseling and crooked gamblers
who infect our proud city that
New York is not a safe place
to operate."
Stemmer and Rosen were
found guilty by a jury of eight
men and four women after five
hours of deliberation last night.
The jury recommended leniency
for Rosen, who acted as a go
between in the deal with the
players to "fix" a game with
Akron university at Boston on
Jan. 31.
Stemmer promptly was sen
tenced to a year in the penitenti
ary and fined $500 with the pro
viso that he must serve an extra
day for each dollar of the fine
he fails to pay. Rosen will be
sentenced on May 16.
