TOTE IN ENGLAND
A GRATIFYING RECEPTION.: . v United Press Association.—ByElectrio Telegraph.--Copyright.) (Received this day at 8 a.m.) LONDON, July 11. Y' Lord. Hamilton Dalgell, speaking at ’ Glasgow on behalf df " the Racecourse Bettjng Control Board, claimed the tote had a highly gratifying reception in, England. The turn-over for four daJpC at Newmarket and three at Carlisle was £67,300. There could be no..doubt the tote had taken on with the casualN punter, particularly-because it allowed betting for a place only and moreover was a clear competition. • The tote will have an indirect effect on the betting ‘ market, but one will ever remember outsiders winning at such generous odds 'as 33 to 1 in a selling race.qf seven runners, or 100 to 1 in a. field offive, yet these were bookmakers odds at Newmarket last week. But the Control "Board does not desire to injure bookmakers.
