Greyhound racing 20 years ago an idea in the mind of a Canadian promoter now Is in the $1000.000,000 industry class In Britain. Calgary -born Brlg.-Gen. A. C. Crltchley, with a bank loan of 14,000 ($63,000) and the knowledge that an attempt to draw customers to watch greyhounds chase a mech anically-propelled "hare" had failed dismally in 1876, decided to "shoot the works" in Manchester. He had hoped for a crowd of 10,000. The first night 2,100 turned out. The second night attendance dropped to 1,500. Then the boom began. For the next 33 meetings gate figures averaged 11,000. A year later Gen. Critchley extended his enterprise to London. Now 150 tracks throughout the. country attract more than 30,000,000 spectators annually while tote machines took In 70,452,901 ($317,038,325) last year and hundreds of thousands of unrecorded pounds changed hands through bookmakers.

The hound which "would once have been worth no more than 5 ($22.50) now costs about 50.

Disappointments arc weeded out and their entries cancelled, but one survivor may bring glory to his family and something more solid to his owner.
