GeseII Marked Man
Among Midget Auto
Racers tuesday
Goes for Third Major
Triumph in Row on
Lunhum Track

Ernie Gesell will be marked
man Tuesday night when midget
auto drivers roar away at West
Lanham in the first annual Atlantic
States Championship Derby, a 40
lap 10-mile) test which features
the Trace program.
Gesell has won the main 30-lap
event for two successive weeks at
the nearby Maryland speed plant
and in doing so has contributed
three records to the track books.
He can expect serious challenges
from Mike Joseph and Lyle Dickey,
who also have won West Lanham
features, and possibly by Henry
Banks, one of the leading drivers
in the East who will be present if
he RECEIVERS from injuries received
last Monday in a spill at Phila-
delphia.
Gesell's winning streak is due
partly to misfortunes to his fellow
drivers Two weeks ago Banks had
a comfortable lead in the feature
with Gesell trailing, only to blow a
tire that forced his car from the
track. Last week Lyle Dickey had
roared to the front and was enlarg-
ing the gap when his motor started
to throw water. He was given the
black flag as a safety measure and
disqualified.
Efforts are being made by Gen
eral Manager Eddie Bean to have
Tony Bonadies, Bill Holmes and
Ted Tappett released from con-
tracts elsewhere so they can race
Tuesday.
Among those definitely set to race
is Bill SCHNEIDER, one of Washing
tons favorites, who returns after
3-week absence with specific plans
to top all previous speed records
at West Lanham. In his only ap-
pearance at the track so far he had
a sizeable lead in the semifinal
when his motor went sour and kept
him from finishing.
Those who definitely have signed
to appear on Tuesday are, in addi-
ton to those already mentioned,
Len Duncan, Andy DeVercelly, Bill
Troutwine, Jim Forte, Harry Steiger,
John Ringer, Andy Furci, Walt
Walker, Paul Allen, Joe Sheppard.
Len Arnold, Bill Baker, Bob Lang,
