By Joe Timmons Hi-Jinx FM::: presented a Hare Scrambles at Palmdale, Call!. on Sunday, Nov. 5th. Despite a to.rturous course, a few machines survived the grueling one hour and 30 minute ordeal termed as a scrambles. Spills and thrills were prevalent as the riders saw each other very infrequently after the start of the race, except maybe stalled along the course. However, brotherhood prevailed and occasionally one could see two riders helping to pull each other's bike up over a hill of powdered sand. Despite some treacherous terrain, none of the riders was injured badly, although Evans Security Patrol, who donated the speaker system for the event, retained an ambulance under constant radio contact throughout the race. Winner of the scrambles was Frank Vallefuoco on a Bridgestone, and Bill O'Neill a close second on a Yamaha 80cc bike. Off to a fast start and a commanding lead was Wheelie Wheeler. However his bike was alling and he decided to literally "quit while ahead". Palmdale, Calif. 51&, Noy. 5, 1961 By Joe Timmons 1. Frank Vallefuoco 2. Bill O'Neill 3. Tom Walton 4. Joe Fahrnkopf 5.
