Reckord Calls Sale Of Track A Good Deal In Maryland
Maj. Gen. Milton J. Reckord told a Legislative Council meeting that the state made an excellent purchase when it bought Havre de Grace racetrack for the National Guard. He said the move was embarrassing due to his connections with both parties but he supported the decision as a good deal. The track provided storage shop facilities and a unit of about 100 men, purchased for 500000 from Camp Ritchie sale proceeds, with an appraisal around 915000. A three man committee was formed to inquire into the purchase. Later, a separate note reports a Baltimore arrest for kicking over trash cans with a quip about keeping the city dirty. He was fined 50 dollars and costs.
