Wahl came to Elsinore week before last, went down and the followi ng four riders rode over him. says he is okay and rode hard only to have the transmission In his Honda blow. A really big bike showed up ••• an II-D Sportster to do battle In tbe Open Novice witb diminutive r ider L . Stewart aboard.

The first Semi was won by a rider who has been away for a while, Z. Varoon. A. Hinde1nag took tbe 2nd Semi on a Honda that runs. Hindelang Is tbe m 0 s t co me - from - behinder I have seen here. He consistently does just that. The first place trophy went to H . Egge on a Kawasaki. Stu ff And Things Track conditions drew some comments from tbe riders, all good. It held up consistently all night , and proved to be very tacky, L. Taylor loo ke d good on his Taco, as he won one, and got a secon d in anotber. A slide pu t hi m In 3rd overall, and E . Barker did It for 1st on a Kawa.sak1 and I. Moon got 2nd. Ne xt week we are all looki ng for a warm ni ght scrambl es at Elsinore, so we'll see y ou all tb er e .
