Yo ung ( 16), Mr. Ken Zah rt has fo und the air (a nd the money) up at the top to be very heady stuff, and he does like it . Last Saturday, Ken picked up all the marbles for the 125 Experts here; last night at Lions, he did it to the beach bunch; today he did it again. And none of these wins have been "cherry pickin' wins". He's winning over the best, Chuck Bower, Bruce McDougal, Dave Rodgers, Bruce Baron and John Volkman . Now that's pretty fast company. This is a first. The BN Supply cycle sox is the on ly sox made especially for motorcycle riders. The sox ar e very durable and will not shrink or lose s hape. It is made with 50% wool, 38 % acrylic, 10 % nylon and 2 % ole fin. This combination controls the sweating of the feet. They are 28 in. long and will fit most any boot on t he market.

In trying t o get a good start in the las t ro und he jum ped the flag so starter Dale Teubner made him go around to get back in line. But when the flag fell, Ken wasn't in position, and as a result, he was dead last as the 15 rider field went up the hill on the first lap. Zahrt had only one thing on his mind, get past everybody who was in front of him, and that included Bruce Baron, the leader. He did do it, in grand style. By the fourth lap of this six -lapper, Ke n had the lead and was stretching it as he took the checker to complete the sweep. In all fairness to Baron, I have to report that in that last round. he broke every spoke ou t of the rear wheel o n his Pento n, as we ll as cracking tile h ub . With the big lead he has as a resu lt of th e b ad st art, I don't think Ken would have caught Bruce if it weren't fo r the wh ee l breakin g, R on Russell, P.R. man for Co rona R aceway, has an no unced a series of races to be run with the high point rider receiving a H.D .
