The ban on horse racing is reportedly to be lifted on V E Day. War mobilizer James F Byrnes outlined plans permitting racing to resume, with emergency conservation measures, though timing depends on Europe. Churchill Downs and other tracks expect operations to start within six weeks, but Derby delays and horse readiness push back the Kentucky Derby to June or later.

FoulingOut Rule Robs Cage Fans of Their Fun
The article argues the fouling out rule ruins the basketball spectacle at a Red Cross game in Madison Square Garden featuring Bob Kurland and George Mikan. It notes Mikan fouled out early, fans booed, and compares penalties to hockey and football, suggesting a penalty box or extra free throws for excessive fouls. It highlights the public frustration and the brief, inconclusive contest.
