Thank you for approaching this with an open mind.
From my understanding, MANY people hung out shingles in the '60s who were not necessarily properly papered (by today's standards) to do so. He was (apparently) never
held accountable for any wrongdoing with regards to a psychology practice.
Many of those people were eventually grandfathered in when the licensing became more stringent.
Are there things that we can find to hold against him - especially if we look hard enough? Probably.
The real question that should be asked is, "Did
Doctor Howard Sartin advance the position of horse players?"
Or, maybe, "Was Howard Sartin good for racing?"
My answer is YES.
