Betting On Team Sports Passed By N H Senate

The New Hampshire Senate approved a bill by 2 to 1 to legalize betting on professional and collegiate team sports, sending it to the House. If enacted, parimutuel betting cards would be sold at events outside New Hampshire, with estimated first-year revenue of 4.5 million dollars directed to school districts and the General Fund for children's services. The vote followed debates on gambling impacts, with lawmakers and sports officials weighing revenue against potential influence on athletics.

SBA Defends Loan Policy in New Hampshire Tug of War

New Hampshire Governor Meldrim Thomson accuses the SBA Boston office of racial discrimination in loan processing. SBA Administrator Thomas Kleppe defends the agency, notes a defaulted loan to a black borrower, and explains a broader, weeklong investigation by a three member team. The Boston loan to Charlie W. Smith is cited as legitimate at approval time, with later default not undermining procedures. The Lisbon Shoe Co loan request was rejected for solid credit reasons, and the bidder may appeal.
