had mo ved hi s way u p to third, with hi s rather '
follow ing in fifth. With t w o laps to go,

appeared to injure himself. As he rode slow ly
off the track, Parson assu med the lead with
Aaron Rogers in seco nd As th e signal was
giv en for the last la p, Bill Rogers shot past
Mike H u lsey to assume third, At the flag , it
