Derby Betting Ban Limited by Pending Parimutuel Law
The city moves to halt betting machines as unlicensed and illegal until June 12 when a new parimutuel law becomes effective. Officials argue police power allows seizure of mutuel gear and arrests for bookmakers on Derby Day pending state action. The Jockey Club plans to resume parimutuel betting once legal.

Finger Nail Curve Latest Pitch Faze Memphis Southern
Ralph Sarge native of Berwyn Pennsylvania and pitcher for the Memphis Southern league club claims mastery of a new delivery called the finger nail ball. Pitched with the nails of the thumb and first three fingers the ball breaks variedly toward the plate and then speeds past the batter. Sarge has practiced the grip for two years but used it in championship games only this year to fool batters more than the spitball or knuckle curve.
