Son Of Former
Grady Countian
Wins Racing Events
The following article from the
Mobile Press Register in a recent
issue regarding Omer P. Harrison,
Jr., making a clean sweep in the
soap box racing events in that
city on Labor Day, will be read
with much interest by the many
friends and relatives of the
family in this county. Young
Harrison is the son of Mr. and
Mrs. Omer P. Harrison, Sr., form¬
er residents of Grady County, who
resided south of Whigham. The
article follows:
“Thirteen-year-old Omer P.
Harrison, Jr., of 756 Marine St.,
Mobile, left no doubt in the minds
of Soap Box Race fans Monday
that he was a champion.
The tall, quiet youngster, son
of Mr. and Mrs. Omer P. Harri¬
son, captured the championship in
the unsponsored division of For¬
est Hill’s Soap Box Race for the
third straight year.
Wins Sponsored Race
And then to make the evening
complete in one of the biggest
grand-slams enjoyed by any
champion, Omer raced the Oak¬
dale Baptist Church car across to
win the championship in the
sponsored race.
His face smeared with graphite,
with which he lubricated his rac¬
ers, Harrison walked up to the
speakers’ stand and received a
of $150 in cash and Gabriel
trophies.
This makes a total of $350 in
cash won by Harrison in three
years, plus almost a room full of
trophies.
His cash winnings Monday
were $100 for the unsponsored
champions and $50 for the spon¬
sored triumph.”
If sold for the value of its chem¬
ical elements, the human body
would be worth about 98 cents.
The penultimate day of the
month is the next to the last day.
