Rusty Phillips Claims Second Main Win First Double Recorded Rusty Philips won his second straight main event of the Gem Speedway season, in the Sunday evening racing program, and in doing so became the lirst driver to win two mains so far this sea con. Last week, the Yreka driver, finished ahead of the field in the 25 lap event with his C-2 hardtop, and again last night was the firsC car across the linish line of the linal race of the evening. After 16 laps had been completed the A-main cars were restarted be cause of a pileup on the tract with Waymon Core in C-16 holding the pole position, and Jerry Johnson In M-14 leading the field from the outside position. Philips was In filth place at this restart, behind Russ Newell in K-15 and Matt Christian in K-84, but lap by lap the California driver made bis way to the front and finally took it away from core and Newell, who had waged a battle for the leadership. Alter Philips came Core, Newell and Johnny Hitson driving K-7 in that order for the finish of a good main event race. The B-maln event was taken by Bob Crawley as the K-66 driver made his way from back near the tail end of the 15 lap event to win the semi-windup's prize money. Crawley had advanced to second place in a restart alter tne litn lap. and from there on held the lead over Vie Flackus, who led the event until the restart. , Johnnv Hitson and Neil Mayfield battled for second and third places with Hitson winning out at the finish line. Dave Vincent in K-17 placed fourth in the semi to round out the lop four places. Don Harris in K-19 won the C- race, while Don Barron, who led the field' for several laps, finished second. Third and fourth place 'fin' Jshes went to Dude Cortney in K 65 and Johnny Bowers in K-73. In the final heat race of the eve ning program, Al Rossi took over the leadership in the ninth lap of the 10 lap event to win the prize money and points. Rossi's K-42 battled with Core for several laps beiore he passed him for keeps. Core finished sec. end and Philips' C-2 was third. Fourth place was taken by Mike Balcoin in K-48. Allen Bousman in K-25 and George Smith in K-40 waged anoth er battle in the Trophy Dash, with Bousman collecting the evening's honors, by kissing the trophy girl after winning the four Ian event. Third place went to Herb Schultz in K-17, and there was no fourth place finisher as Ed Roufs in K-12 spun out in the third lap. Bousman. Roufs. Schultz and Smith were the heat race winners while Philips, Rossi, Ray Brack- man in K-33 and Vincent were sec ond. ' Smith, who usuafty drives K-G7, drove K-40, Bill Hilton's car, last night and in the fourth heal race lapped two cars ana ica ine second and third place hardtops by a large distance. Not only did he win by a long way, but as he pulled into the pits, it was noticed that he had been racing on a flat tire. The excitement of the wind-blown evening came when Guy Hitson In K-23 pulled to a stop In the pits with his car on fire. The Suburban Fire Department quickly extin guished the blaze without too much serious trouble. The Klamath Falls American Lc glon Drum and Bugle Corps put on a very fine showing for the hardtop fans, alter the time trials had been completed. They showed why they had won the 1953 state championship crown for drum and bugle corps. Racing next week will be a day show on the Fourth of July and an evening snow the linn.
