P 'Bid. AND MY '— SISTER HAVE f-ET THE DATE,PE6fW! Labor Day Races At Darlington Monday DARLINGTON—The 75 starting positions in the fourth annual “Southern 500’’ mile race for late- model strictly stock cars on Labor Day, Monday, September 7, will be filled in the four days of time trials starting Tuesday, Sept. 1 and continuing through Friday. The qualifying trials will be held daily from 1:00 p.m. to 5:00 p.m. Nine of the top 10 drivers in the Grand National Circuit point standings heads a list of 60 en tries filed before Monday’s dead line for the 500-mile classic the largest race in the world for stock cars. A complete field of 75 drivers is anticipated to get the starters green flag labor day in quest of the $27,657.25 purse. All drivers entering after -the dead line will not receive credit for points in the NASCAR national standings. Defending champion F o n t y Flock of Decatur, Ga., and nation al point leader Herb Thomas of Olivia, N. C., will be seeking to become the first two-time winner of the event. Thomas rode off with honors in 1951. Both Flock and Thomas will be driving 1953 Hud sons, unless the ’54 models are available by race time. The other high-ranking Grand National drivers within striking distance of the national champion ship with a “Southern 500” vic tory are: Dick Rathman, Daytona Beach, Fla., 1953 Hudson; Lee Petty, Randleman, N. C., 1953 Dodge; Defending champion Tim Flock, Atlanta, Ga., 1953 Hudson; Buck Baker, Charlotte, N. C., 1953 Oldsmobile; Joe Eubanks, Spar tanburg, 1952 Hudson; Slick Smith, Atlanta, Ga., 1953 Oldsmo bile; and Bill Blair, High Point, N. C., 1953 OlBsmobila The Darling ton victor will receive 1,250 points. Among the late entries in the star 7 studded field were: Curtis Turner, Roanoke, Va., 1953 Olds; Jim Paschal, High Point, N. C., 1953 Dodge, Rudy Hires, Norfolk, Va., 1953 Chevrolet; Lloyd Hulet- te, Cincinnati, Ohio, 1953 Buick; Glenn Wood, Stuart, Va., 1953 Lincoln; Gober Sosebee, Atlanta, Ga., 1953 Olds; Cotton Owens, Spartanburg, 1953 Hudson; Ned Jarret, Newton, N. C., 1951 Ford; Otis Martin, Martinsville, Va., 1953 Chrysler. Speculation is mounting as to what type automobile will win the 500-mile grind on the enlarged mile and a. half track—one of the finest automotive proving grounds in the country. Three different type cars have scored victories in previous years. A 1950 Plymouth, driven by Johnny Mantz, Long Beach, Calif., captured the in augural race. Thomas steered ’ a Hudson to victory the following year and Flock won in a 1952 Olds last year. Thomas’ average speed of 76.90 miles per hour is the present track record. Flock set the , tempo of the speeds expected here Labor Day when he averaged 115.68 m.p.h. in a 1953 Hudson on a two-lap prac tice run last week. Fonty has de cided to switch his allegiance to the Hudson this year. The car is owned by Red Vogt of Atlanta, Ga. Flock’s speed bettered the 115.14 m.p.h. registered by Buck Baker in a ’53 Olds here July 4th. Crotwell Rites Held In Georgia Mrs. Nellie Crotwell, 78, wife of the late Samuel P.

Mr. Senn recently received several bushels of stolons from the Soil Conservation Nursery and planted them in a small nursery on his farm to produce sprigs for field plantings.

Mr. Senn reports a good sur vival of runners planted in this way. A total of 240 bushes of Coastal Bermuda stolons have been allot ted to farmers in Newberry county by the Soil Conservation Service Nursery this summer. Other farm ers who planted some of this grass with sprigs received from “this grass are: D. B. Sease, George Young, H. O. Long, R. C. Neel, Dave Waldrop, T. O. Stewart, S. C. Paysinger, W. H.

Although no one has taken the trouble to explain, it has been wide ly known tn golf circles for some time that Lloyd Mangrnm does not like Ben Hogan. This fact was more than evident in Mangrnm’s latest statement regarding Hogan. Said Mangrnm: It makes me “a little ill” to read all the publicity on Hogan. “Sure he’s a good play er but all that stuff about him be ing the greatest golfer that ever lifted r. cinb is a lot of bunk. Why, if he played the tour with the rest of ns he wouldn’t do any better than a half dosen men.” Could it be envy on Mangrum’s part? . .
