Four days of International motor

a Newcomer to Lakewood, who did
some wonderful driving, giving the
fans a thrill in a lifetime; Woods, a
Western boy, came to Lakewood

and, when it comes to driving a
race car, this boy can handle one
at its worst.
And don’t forget that our Georgia
b-iys were in those Labor Day races
also. Pete Craig, of Atlanta, and
Harley Taylor, another Atlanta boy,
did some beautiful racing. Pete, with
his new Car, won several events, and
really was at his best until his car
caught fire and put him out for the
day’s races.
So it looks as though the Cham
pions will have their hands full, and
for the spectators many thrills are
in store for them. And as the old
saying goes, “Anew Champion is
born every day.” It looks as though
there will be some real racing. Lake
