HB  50 - BROADCASTING OF RAFFLES AND CLASSICS                         
                                                                               
MR. TOM MANNINEN, staff to Representative Mark Hodgins, came                   
forward to present the bill. MR. MANNINEN said the bill removes the            
prohibition on broadcast media for certain legislatively recognized            
classics so the sponsors of these events may use broadcast media to            
increase public awareness of their event. The bill affects only the            
following classics: Canned salmon classic, Deep freeze classic,                
Goose classic, Ice classics, King salmon classics, Mercury                     
classics, mushing sweepstakes, Salmon classic. MR. MANNENIN noted              
that the bill carried a zero fiscal note.                                      
                                                                               
SENATOR MILLER made a motion to move HB 50 out of committee with               
individual recommendations. Without objection, it was so ordered.
