John SelSOR Hon By Maureen Lee Cor rig an v i l l e (Hopetown) is just around the corner now and we wish we could give you some tips on this year's course, but we can't so we'll rtde It like we always do. meaning, pick whatever traction you want to use and use It! But this we do know, thpre are a couple of changes from last year's layout, so just pray to the patron saint of motorcycling and have at it! It's a great disappointment that at this writing the big European stars will not be riding there and rumors are rampant as to why they are not. Our comment Is that regardless of what you may hear there are two positive truths; one Is they have signed a contract with a distributor and so cannot always do what they wish regardless of ctrcumstances and that starting money was finally provided for them for Corrtganville. However the time element and being unable to communicate with the right people at the crucial moment entered Into that deal. Anyway, we'll have our usual great event, of that you can be sure. Entries were over 800 riders this year! We suggest you look your best whatever day you ride as there will be fUming for both movies and television. We don't have it confirmed but understand that Bruce Brown of "The Endless Summer" will be there so will the TV cameras like maybe the Wide World of Sports. So let's all look purly! John Rice is back home from the hospital and says he's going to rtde the event if It gets an A.M.A. sanction, whtcb we admit is pushing pretty hard for that number one plate considering bis injuries, but just try telling hurt racers to cool it! John wants to hang on to that bigh point standing come hell or high water and we say he stands a good chance. Once !be Ascot season is over some of the bot Amateurs will be back again riding the ()peJI class at !be scrambles providing more competition and making more of a class for number two plate will be back and so will, we hope, Mike Van Acker. If C.H. Wheat can get some wrencb-bending done he'll be back out before the end of this season on a new scooter, so with John in the 500 class and maybe a new winner each week in the Open whtch bas more entrants for the paying of points, it really will go down to the wire! Thanks to Carol (Mrs. Dllrwln) Ballard, we can keep you posted. our thanks too to Karen (Mrs. Richard) Kouns for !be lightweight standings. Anytime we call !be house she's always cheerful about it all and bas 'em rigbt there. Unaff1claUy rigbt now Kirk Mc Dowell is in first spot and we would like to see Kirk get that number one plate maybe more than any other man (and it's not favoritism) but Kirk has really proved bimseU throughout anumber of seasons. Hayward Mendenhalland Jim Connolly are figbting tooth and nail for that number two spot both being in thc low 900's (Kirk is over 11001) whtle Keith Mashburn is tn there for around follrth again with a figure in the low 700' s. Both diVisions are interesting to say the least! • Z50cc EXPERT MOTO 1. Keith Mashburn BuJ 2. Rick James Bul 3. Pete Dupuy HOII 4. Jim COIIDOlly Gre 5. Hoppy Hopkins MOIl 350cc NOVICE MOTO 1.
