CALENDAR OF EVENTS ATTENTION PROMOTERS Beginning next week. this newspaper will refuse to list coming events sponsored by promoters who have a habit of not paying their bills. The publishers feel that it would be a disservice to readers to encow'age them to attend events put on by irresponsible promoters and. also. that it would diminish the attendance at other events sanctioned by reputable promoters on the same date.

Those of you who followed competition back in 1961 will remember the Tecate Grand Prix as a poor man's Catalina. with dirt sections and that crowdpleasing dash through town down the hrewery straight, carefully avoiding errant Latins and 5O-gallon marker drums filled with concrete. Then came the rioting visitors in 1961. who did-in the town and the race wi th it. It was enough to make you a bitter man. Well, the good news is that this AMA classic-in somewhat modified form-will run again on March 19. H·s been moved out to Tecate Airport. so the pavement part of the race involves criss-crossing the landing strip three times. Granted, it's not as colorful as racing past cerveza bars and all that. but it is probably a little less nerve wracking. Sponsoring club is the Lions M.C., 4918 Ocean Beach. Calif. (Phone: 2225491) They got the City of Tecate to agree on becoming a venue for the race once more by a ruse which is becoming more and more common these days-throwing a charity race_ Tbey came up with the idea after seeing an act combining a maratbon dancer. and a girl buried underground; they botb held out for three days and brought the Tecate Fire Department lots of charity. The Tecate FD will be the beneficiclary for the bike race too. The course is about 2 miles long and includes 1 mile of pavement. The dirt is " grad ed and fast. The ci ty will provide water on race day. and calDlling (cum toilets) is possible near the striP. Mail entry is 53 and doses on March 10th. There will be no post entry. Enter wi th a standard AMA sportsman form or facsimile. and all your numbers. Three number plates are required. There will be four one-hour races. the first of which begins at 11 a.m. They run in this order: 1-50-100; 100-199; 20D-250; 251-499-0pen. Riders meeting is at 8 a.m. Practice. in half hour bits, begins at 8:30 a.m. and is broken down into the same classes as for the race and in tbe same order. All in all. this is one heckuva lot of good 01· slam-beng ANA style GeePee racing for three bucks. all to the tune of that great Tecate motto: -Goce la Meld- SATUrlJAY, MARCH 25tll. 30111 ANNUAL TRAIL BLAZERS IIEETING & Banquet Ileld at lIIe Rodpr Younl Andl to.. lu... 936 W.
