They were side by side again down the back straigh t, but the edge was still in Woods' favor as Dan drove high to the wall and swooped down to the finish line that Rick had already crossed. During the trophy presentation one of the vehicles built by Van Spect:qun was used as the trophy car, and six fair maidens jumped from the rear of the van lavishing kisses and congratulations on Rick. They then proceeded in front of 9,000 people to kidnap him. He was physicaUy put into the rear of the van as the six maidens piled in behind him, pulling the doors closed and the van sped off. . Woods did not fare so well in the Scratch Main event against Mike Bast. Mike won the event making it his third night in a ro'l/; three ou t of four Scratch Main events in one week is not to shabby. Of course Mike has done better winning all four last week. Danny Becker finished righ t behind Woods as he did in the Match Race followed by Sonny Nu tter for fourth .. Billy Gray got his fourth Handicap victory of the season, starting from the ten yard line well ahead of the other five riders. There was no one near to ride with, as the Bast boys were very busy trying to get passed Larry Moon and Billy Miester. The people from Premier Helmets are true supporters of Speedway. Not only do they sponsor the Second Division Main event, posting a cash reward to the winner if he is wearing a Premier helmet, they also put up contingency awards for the Main Event victors and sponsor several of the top stars in Speedway. The newest members of this growing team wiD now be Mr. Billy Gray, and Premier will buy him' a new set of leathers. Bruce Penhall won the Division 2 Main for the third time this season and the right to kiss the trophy girl. This time he did not have to stand on his tip toes to kiss her, she was more his size. The young miss is a represen tative for Captai'n Sticky, -a local fiber glass company, She is called a Stickette. . " il ALONG WITH THIS GALLERY OF WINNERS WHO USE "MOLLY" Marty Tripes CL M ....
