running of the All Junior Day at Bay
Mare, you have had it. It is like Snoppy,
the great dog says, Happiness is day at
Bay Mare. There are some 3500 fans
thaI can swear to it, by far the largest
one day crowd that has ever attended
any event here.
The starters flag was dropped at 1 I
and they were off and running.
It's nearly impossible to give the final
order of standings at this time. Have
you ever seen, 700 registered riders
compete in 48 races? That is three
complete Moto's run in just under seven
hours. Figure it out, that's about eight
and one half minutes a race.
.
A great big vote of thanks, well done
and all that goes with should be handed
to thos repsonsible for a job well done.
Good officials, comer men, public
facilities and etc. These people have big
things in store and.mind for you at a
later date.

Dean Preston on his way to a first in the
250cc Div. I "C".
After a rather boring drive up from
L.A., I was met by that friendly Tex
Meyers, Dave Grove, Gary Anderson
and a whole host of hard workinlt
people who have the knack for putting
on one great day of racing.
First off, Grove, that no-nonsense
starter, held the regular rider's mee.ring.
This lasted from 9:30 to 9:55 a.m.
When he lays down the rules and law,
you had better take heed.
The track opened for practice under
one of those near perfect, sunny
Southern California skies, practice
closed at 10:55.
