ALL TIED UP AND NO PLACE TO GO . . . This it what Neil Mayfield in K-I4 was probably
thinking when he and Dale Himilwright got tangled up on the south corner of Gem Speedway.
Himilwright's K-33 took the turn too fast and spun out of the race blocking Mayfield in the
process. In the background is Bud Cook in K-4, light colored car, and Wilbur McGilvary in

Speedway Main Event
i 8. R. (Bob). Crawley made it
four different winners, of the A
Main In four hardtop racing pro
grams last night by putting on a
tremendous last half race to edge
John Hitson In the weekly hard
top show at Gems Speedway.
So far this year the main event
can not claim a double winner, and
it is beginning to look like it will
be a hard chore for any one driver
to walk off with several main event
nonors this season.
, Crawley- in K-66 was in fourth
spot at the end of 16 laps, with
Hitson's K-7 leading the field of
hardtoppers over the last nine laps
of the 25 lap event.
By the 17th and 18th laps Craw
ley made some nice moves and
took over second place behind Hit
son for what proved to be a nip
and tuck battle of the lead posi
tion, until : Crawley pushed out
ahead in the 21st lap,
The orange and blue car man
aged to -withstand Hitson's chal
lenge lor the remaining four laps
to win the exciting main event of
a 10 race program. , '
Third spot in the A main went to
Russ Newell in his K-15 and Allen
Bouseman in K-25 captured the
fourth place money,
r In the last lap of the main event,
Al Rossi in K-42 piled up on the
barrier in front of the grandstand
and had to be towed off the track
after being in contention for the
largest share of the race.
Wes Owens' K-16 took a lead in
the third lap of the B main and
held off Bud Cook in K-4 to win the
top place money of the semi-main
event on the evening program.
The B-main was marred by sev
eral restarts at the first part of the, I
race, which included a couple of
exciting pileups on the south turn.
Jim Barrett in K-S bounced high
and wide after a mixup on the
first lap, and after a restart Bar
rett proceded to roll his car over
the south end of the speedway
oval. ,
In the consolation race. Pee Wee
Roufs took the lead from Ray
Brackman in K-22 after the Brack
man car spun out on the very last
turn before crossing the finish line.
Brackman had led the pack most
of the way over the 10 lap distance,
and had a sizable lead going into
the north corner, but lost control
of his car and Roufs id K-50 and
Guy Hitson in K-23 placed one-two,.
Don Harris in K-19 and Ed Roufs
in K-12 placed third and fourth.
Owens also won the final heat
and Cook in K-4 placed second to
(he Keno driver for the second
time in the evening. Ben Morrison
in K-8 was third and Bouseman's
K-25 was- lourth.'
Dale Hanklns in K-l held off Ne
well's easter egg to win the trophy
dash of four laps, after he had won
the first heat race of the Sunday
evening program.
Other heat race winners were
Newell In the second 10 lapper, Hit
son in the third and Slim Swenson
in C-4. took, the last heat race of
the evening.
Also announced last night was
the official word that Crawley now
holds the new track record with
his time of 14.47 that he turned in
two weeks ago in time trials.
' Rossi previously held a 14.46
mark, but the track has been
worked over and made wider and
larger from last year so the offi
cials gave the track mark to Craw
ley even though his was one-one
hundredth of a second slower than
Rossi's time of last season.

Baseball Forgetting
Public Relationship
By GAYLE TALBOT
NEW YORK Wl There should
have been no great surprise or
Indignation that a crowd of 36,000
.was kept sitting throug a cold
rain for more than four hours the
other night until the Brooklyn
Dodgers and the Milwaukee
Braves could contrive to struggle
through the minimum five innings
of a legal game and thus negate
the crowd's rain checks.
Baseball remains the one big
business which steadfastly refuses
to believe that public relations are
very important. In general, the
game's attitude is that what was
good for the customer in Grand
paw's day still is hot stuff. BUI
Veeck was brave enough to chal
lenge this moribund attitude when
he took over the Cleveland In
dians, and the young man no long
er has a franchise.
Those fans who pay well for the
opportunity of watching Ted Wil
liams swing at a baseball are
treated. Instead, to the sight of
a pitcher throwing four balls that
the great man couldn't reach with
an oar. It's good tactics, all right,
but is it giving the crowd a run
for its money?
The other night in St. Louis,
Hank Thompson of the New York
Giants bit a home run in each
of his first three times at bat.
When he came up for the fourth
lime he bad a chance to tie a rec
ord of four consecutive homers in
one game held jointly by Bob Lowe
of the Boston Nationals of 1894
and Lou Gehrig of the 1932 Yan
kees. Hank drew an intentional
pass..
Baseball Is better than rassling,
but one is moved to wonder now
and then if the so-called national
pasttlme couldn't borrow Just a
little from the pachyderms.
Manager Al Lopez of Cleveland
has a strong feeling that the
Yankees are going to miss Vic
Raschi until it hurts before the
American League race is finished.
"Always before,' says the senor,
"we could count upon facing
Raschi, Reynolds and Lopat in
every Series, and that was tough.
Stengel always did the same thing
against the Chicago White Sox too
and saved bis second-stringers for
the other clubs. He's going to miss
the big guy plenty.
