Auckland, November 27. • As it has been made mandatory, for racing clubs to license bookmakers on their courses, those identified with racing in Auckland are awaiting developments in that connection (according to "Phaeton". in the. "Herald") With much interest. The Takapuna Jockey Club's Spring Meeting being fixed to open on Saturday next, the committee of that .body will have first to deal with thoviiew situation created by: the provisions of the Gaming Act, and the necessary applications have, it is understood, been lodged with the authorities of the Takapuna Jockey Club by those wishing, to lay the odds nt the forthcoming -spring meeting at : the North Shore. It is expected -that a copy'of the Act,-as finally passed, will reach Auckland to-day bv mail, and when such is- to hand tho Takapuna Jockey. Club Committee may be-expected-to face the licensing question. The same writer states . the' totalisator arrangements on-'the Alanawatu Racing Club's course- .having proved equal to coping with a big; rush of business, and with a view .to Ellcrsho being brought up to the highest standard, Mr. Hartland,- secretary to . the Auckland Racing Club, has been commissioned to make special trip to Palmerston North m order to inspcct -.the machine arrangements on the Manawatu course prior t? altera, tions being made at Ellershc. Mr. Hartland leaves for New Plymouth by to-day's steamei en route to Palmorston North. Tho coming into force of the Gaming Act was effective to-night m stopping the betting which has been the subject of complaint m connection with tho Auckland Athletic Club a gaslight sports. The meeting to-night was attended by bookmakers, but they declined business. ' Sweepstakes were made up amongst the spectators, and also amongst competitors in certain heats called class heats. This practice the police permitted, not being quite clear as to whether the Act prohibits sweeps. Napier, November 27-. Tho Wellington district of the Methodist Church Synod, while regretting the legislation of the bookmaker and totalisator, .complimcntcd and'thanked the Premier, Sir Joseph Ward, on the passing of the Gaming Bill.
