Plans for sports car racing on Colony Days, May 9 and 26, were presented to the Pal mer City Council at the April 9 meeting by members of the Anchorage Sports Car Associa- ton.

sociation, asked the council for approval of a plan which would bring sports car and Go-Kart racing to the downtown streets of Palmer during the two-day Colony Days observance.
 He presented a map of the proposed route, which would follow Valley Street and Rail road Avenue, and would also utilize a portion of a street and alley in the north end of the area between Valley and Rail- road. Every precautlon would be taken to protect spectators and property owners along the route, he said.
 A portion of the streets on the north end of the route would have to be black topped or surfaced with tar chip, he stated, but added that between 5000 and 4,500 spectators could be expected, and that admiS- sion fees for this years races might meet the cost of black topping, if not, a contract ar rangement could probably be made on a tWoyear basis. Aside from permission from the city to hold the races, the coun- cil might also be asked for assistance in the way of equip ment, Woodland said.
 Traffic through Palmer could successfully be rerouted dur ing race hours to permit clos ing of the down town streets, he sad. Since only paying specta tors would be allowed in the area, merchants would have to close their doors facing on the street during the races, but access to the stores could con- tinue through the back doors, it was pointed out.
 The question of noise during church service hours on Sun day morning was discussed. Woodland said that modern sports cars are equipped with
