Dodge City Prepares Annual

to be held here July 4, are nearing
completion, according to Rev. r. NJ.
Betting, executive secretary of the
Dodge City Motor Speedway club.
The big two mile dirt oval has been
placed in first class condition and is
fully 100 per cent better than it was
last year when the track record was
broken by Jim Davis riding a Harley
Davidson.
1t had been planned by officials of
the local racing club to hold a fifty
mile sidecar race, but this project was
abandoned when it was found the fac
tories had not made any plans to en-
ter this type of racers in the speed
contests of this season.

put on some special stunts for the en-
tertainment of the big crowd. expect

Just as Oakley, who was to do the
changing, climbed from the automo-

plane, the ladder caught on the real
spring of the car, causing the plane
to be pulled down on the car, wreck
