LEGAL WAGERING AIDS BIOOKIES
(as excerpted from Chapter27of The Book.)
Yes, Chapter 2'7, wherein it say that Jose Cuervo is not only the
original, since 1795, supreme, premium, ultirmate white tequila. But,
goes on to say that Jose Cuervo, as the ultimate, is also the ultimate
rmiXer.
As a true test, simply pick one from
Column A and one from Column B.

gambling is legal.
"This finding suggests that,
rather than driving illegal gam-
blers out of business, partial
legalization creates a climate
favorable to the illegal forms.''
The report also concluded
that state lotteries appear "to
increase numbers playing, rath-
er than to decrease it as is of-
ten predicted."
THE COMMISSION was call-
ed to testify on its findings that
will be published in its final
report scheduled for completion
in October. The commission was
created in October 1972 to study
all aspects of gambling in the
United States.
In another finding disclosed
to the committee, the commis-
sion said that the existence of
Morin, is the Monday night foot-
ball game televised on the ABC
network.
"That's the biggest game in
town - Monday Night Foot-
ball," Ritchie said.
Two major recommendations
that Ritchie said the -commis-.
sion probably will make in its
final report are to permit all
states to decide individually
whether they want to legalize
gambling within their borders,
and a revision of federal tax
laws to make legal gambling
more profitable for those states
that want legal wagering.
THE FEDERAL government,
Ritchie said, should maintain
control over interstate gamb-
ling, but should provide support
to states that want gambling,
"THE SINGLE MOST detri-
mental policy to a -state insti-
tuting betting is federal tax poli-
cy. This is the only civilized
country that imposes a tax on
gambling revenue," Ritchie
said.
He said the Internal Reve-
nue Service has been unable
to provide a figure on how
much income tax revenue has
been generated by the tax on
gambling winnings, but that
IRS Commissioner Donald Alex-
ander says the amount is in-
significant.
He also said that the gamb-
ling excise .tax passed in 1955
was supposed to have brought
in $400 million per year but has
averaged only $7 million annu-
ally.

Rick Leach, now a familiar face across the country thanks
to a close-up picture of him on the cover of Sports Illus.-
trated, runs with the ball against Ohio State last year.
Leach had an erratic season in '75, including a poor Orange
Bowl performance. This year Bo Schembechier expects
bigger and better thiings from the sophomore. Apparently,
so does Sports Illustrated.-
NEW YORK (IP)--Woody Hayes
didn't make many friends when
he turned in Michigan State,
sending the Spartans up the
river for recruiting violations.
Although he wasn't the only per-
son to tip the NCAA to Michi-
gan State's misdeeds, he has
been the only one to brag about
it.
"Sure I turned them in. And
I'd do it again," Hayes said.
The team he turned in will be
knocking on his door this Satur-
Sday in Columbus, Ohio, in the
opening game of the 1976 col-
lege football season for both the
Buckeyes and ,the Spartans.
In the past, Hayes has punch-
ed and threatened newsmen,
drop-kicked sideline markers
and, generally, done little to en-
dear himself to anybody but 'his
family and Buckeye boosters.
The folly in Hayes' recent
crowing about blowing the
whistle on Michigan State is
that, unlike sideline markers
or members of the media, the
Spartans can retaliate on the
football field.
The Spartans never needed
gaust motivationteto get bup
Ohio State in 1974, the only
regular. season loss the Buck-
eyes have suffered in the last
two years.
This time, however, the
Spartans don't have the horses
to beat No. 4 Ohio State. They
lost veteran players, a coach-
Iing staff and top recruits be-
cause of the taint of their
recruiting violations.
