Gambling Stop Order Delays Parimutuel Betting Controls
Authorities moved to halt parimutuel machines citing violations of the statute and declared betting illegal until June 12. Police powers extend within Jefferson County to stop all betting on streams and races as Derby Day approaches. The delay follows court questions, mayoral policy, and plans to resume parimutuel operations once the anti-gambling law becomes effective on June 12.
