Maryland 76 legislature opens amid graft cases and gambling talk
The 1976 Maryland General Assembly opens as Alford Carey Jr. begins a jail term for embezzlement and Gov. Mandel faces a corruption cloud.

The opening day signals a clash of politics and finance over whether to gamble for revenue or restrain the lure of the easy buck.
