Sports card betting dies in New Hampshire House
In Concord New Hampshire the bid to revive sports card betting died after House Rule 24 blocked action. The House had postponed the measure indefinitely 205 to 131 yesterday and could not suspend the rule to reconsider. The Senate had approved a similar measure 15 to 7, but the House refused to accept the bill citing procedural rules. The betting card plan would have allowed the Sweepstakes Commission to sell betting cards on team events. The move is dead until the 1977 session.
