John Marman in the 220 and rar
a leg in the relay.
His $40 ace was one of the
most thrilling of the meet. Run
ming on the outside Doyle led
to the halfway point before being
overtaken by Laurel's Gary Mi
chael. Forty yards from the fin
ish Dotson regained the lead and
then held on to win by not more
than a yard.
Another outstanding race was

most of the way fell behind with
but 10 yards to the finish line.
Hardin's Old Coyote, won but
