Editor'! note: The Family Council comlitl of a Judge, 1 psychletrlrt,
three elercymen, ft newspaper editor, a women! editor and two writers. Each
article U a luminary of an actual report. The Family Council does not rlTe

agencies and counselors.
Hita K. My husband is a
gambler.
Frank K. I bet for pleasure.
Hita K. We have been mar
ried for three years and I have
been working the entire time.
We planned to build up savings
for the family we hope to have,
but have been unable to do so
because of my husband's gam
bling. My husand bets eirery extra
cent he has on the hprses. When
he loses he says he must make
up for his losses, but when he
wins it goes to his head and he
says he must win a bit more so
that we'll have something extra
to bank. But I'm the only one
who ever makes a deposit at the
bank.
I'm at my wit's end about
what to do. My family tells me
that marriage to a gambler can't
last and I might just as well, for
get about having a family. My
friends tell me to quit work and
see what happens.
e
Frank K. My wife is trying
to make me out a gambler when
I'm nothing of the sort. I enjoy
racing and following news of
racing and I bet just for plea
sure. Every man has to have
some sort of recreation and this
is mine.
Rita gets hysterical every time
she sees me look at a racing
sheet, but she doesn't say any
thing about the money she
spends on senseless gadgets and
costume jewelry. Every day she
comes home with another piece
of junk that she gets tired of
within a week.
The truth is that I have made
more than I have lost on the
horses in the past year. Rita will
be sorry for the way she's been
acting once she sees me deposit
a nice few hundred bucks in the
bank. That's more than she'll be
able to do out of her silly spend
ing.

something of a killing on the
horses. This is the true gambling
spirit and Rita is right to be dis
tressed about it.
It won't help very much to
point out to Frank how many
unhappy and futile lives have
been spent in the quest for a
killing on the horses. He un
doubtedly has known many of
the victims of this dream. He
just takes it for granted that he
will be one of the lucky ones.
The trouble Is that no "lucky"
gambler ever calls it quits, and
today's winner, almost without
exception, becomes tomorrow's
loser.
If Frank can admit to himself
that he has been bitten by the
gambling bug, it would be a
first step toward helping him
self recover from this virus. He
should make every effort to find
a new kind of recreation that
does not dangle the tantalizing
hope of easy money.
Rita can help her husband, not
by scolding or nagging, but by
proving he can have more fun
at other forms of recreation
sports events (at which he does
not bet), theater, movie and en
tertaining at home. This would
be a positive step toward filling
his need for amusement.
Budgeting is another angle
that will help save this mar
riage. Frank and Rita should al
lot a certain small amount per
week for personal fun. If neither
of them exceeds this small am
ount, they should not question
one another as to how it is spent.
If Frank spends exactly this am
ount on the horses, he could
indeed say that he bets for plea
sure. (Copyright 1957, General
