THRILLS With
MOTOR RACES
Christman, in Ford, Wins
lO-Mile Middle States
Championship
MANY SPILLS,
NO ONE HURT

Dirt track motor racing and all the
thrills and spills that go with IL,
we're furnished to 5000 Memorial
Day pleasure hunters at the Els
mere half-mile course OF the Della
ware State Fair Association, yester-
day afternoon. Death was narrowly
missed several times by the daring
drivers in their rush for honors. a
number OF bad upsets resulted. but
no serious injuries were reported
II was a bad day for Fords and
Ford specials Seven Of the "fiiv-
vers" were ready for the scrap pile
before the days program was COM
pleted. In the ten-mile handicap
event seven cars answered the start
er's signal, but after three laps were
made four "flivvers" coupled up on
the far turn and II was necessary for
the judges TO declare the race of.
Three OF the pilots suffered minor
injuries.
The feature OF the day was
the driving Of Joe" Alberta, the
italian pilot from Media, Pa AL
herta, with his Sweeney Special" "
put one over on the officials. bring
ing a high h-powered car equipped
with a $50 horsepower aeroplane en-
gine, and he succeeded in smashing
the local track record.
Alberta violated his contract, the
officials claim. as the car he drove
yesterday was not the one he usually
races, hut the cheers " the crowd
and the pleading OF other drivers
soon convinced those In charge that
he was the favorite with the specta-
tors and he was allowed to run
providing he lowered the track
mark. This he did with ease.
After the Italian broke the record
he was handicapped 80 seconds In
the next event. the Ten-mile Middle
States Championship. Alberta was
forced to take the dust OF q
owly "hivver" when Christman. Of
Pottstown. beat him TO the wire by
ten seconds
Alberta would have won the race
in another hundred yards. but he
loafed at the start. and Christmar
had his "skeeter' working on all foui
throughout the grind.
In the second race. for novices
over a distance of FIVE miles. O'Neill
a local boy, plotting a Ford. plowe,
through the fence on his third lap
lie was uninjured. but his car wa
completely demolished.
There we're three other accidents
the most serious OF which came II
the sixth event when four cars spilel
up on the far turn. Hundreds o
spectators. mostly youngsters, STAN
pcded for the track and the official
" ere forced TO call of the race.
After the cars were cleared from
the track a special match race be
tween Alberta and Correa was pu
on, but as the cars we're rounding tn
far corner Correa's car took a ba
turn and went through the fence
breaking the front axle.
