Costello Linked To Roosevelt Raceway Bookie Crackdown
Associated Press reports Roosevelt Raceway general counsel George Morton Gegy testified before a Senate crime investigation panel that he paid bookmaker leader Frank Costello about 60 000 to aid the track ending a bookmaking threat. Levy said Costello earned 15000 a year for years ending 1940 to curb bookies while Downey warned racing officials to halt bookmaking or lose the license. The testimony framed Costello as a longtime underworld figure aiding the fashionable trotting venue.
