Lottery in Wisconsin<br />

MILWAUKEE — After Attorney General<br />

Thomas E. Pairchild turned down the application<br />

of the Theatre TV Quiz Corp., an<br />

"unidentified theatre operator of Milwaukee"<br />

is reported to have approached him with a<br />

modified plan of giving a TV set prize. He<br />

described the plan as follows:<br />

The theatre would solicit advertising from<br />

merchants in the vicinity of the theatre. The<br />

merchants would be supplied with tokens<br />

which could be distributed among customers<br />

who asked for them. At a specified time the<br />

theatre would present a television set to the<br />

holder of largest number of tokens.<br />

In reviewing this new plan, Fairchild declared<br />

that the giving of a prize would be<br />

the "consideration," and the "chance" would<br />

be that no one would know who would win.<br />

Both are part of a lottery and the plan would<br />

be illegal. If any theatre in Wisconsin tries<br />

such a plan, it would be guilty of using the<br />

television gift as a lottery, the attorney general<br />

declared.<br />
