6 McCOMB ENTERPRISE-JOURNAL Wednesday, May 26, 1971 SECOfficials Opposed to Scholarship Limit Rozelle Against Has Guard Up Legalized Betting in each team's first two home conference games. ir'- llWI I fill i fc THE SUBJECT became, a concern for Rozelle when Howard Samuels, who runs New York's OTB operation-which permits legalized betting on horse rac ing at betting parlors away from the track-publicly stated a natural extension would be betting on team sports. The concern increased with the knowledge that other local, es are considering legalizing such betting, raising staggering possibilities. The NFL draws an average 700,000 people to its stadiums every weekend and as many as 20 to 30 million watch a Monday night game on tele, vision. 'So I turned around and told them I didn't mind them sitting in the seats, but to knock it off.

And they kept quiet during the third and fourth quarters. But as soon as the gun sounded en. ding the game, I felt a tap on my shoulder. "I turned around- and that's when I got a belt in the chops." Rozelle used that story to em. phasize that permitting bets on games 'Changes the character of the fan-rather than an in.
