Darlington 200
Event Monday
Darlington, S. C., July 1—With
thirty-six of the nation’s fastest
race cars and drivers on hand,
the big Darlington (S. C.) race
track tomorrow opens its activity
that will culminate in the biggest
auto race of the year next Monday.
Thirty of the Indianapolis speed
creations compete in a AAA 200
mile national championship event.
Time trials, starting at 1 p.m.
both tomorrow and Saturday will
determine the thirty fastest cars.
Those qualifying Friday have pre
ferential starting position over the
Saturday qualifiers.
The AAA track record of 113.18
mph set by Johnnie Parsons in
1950 when the Darlington plant
was a mile and a quarter in length
is expected to fall. Favorite to
lower the standard is Jack Mc
Grath. S. Pasadena, California,
whose Hinkle Special lowered the
Indianapolis record this year as
well as set a new AAA closed
course record of 179 mph at the
Chrysler proving grounds.
Other drivers expected to pass
the record and who have been
well abdve the work during prac
tice sessions include Art Cross,
LaPorte, Indiana AAA midget
champion in the Springfield Weld
ing Special; Jim Bryan, Phoenix,
driving the Dean Van Lines
Special, Jimmy Reece, Oklahoma
City Malloy Special pilot and Walt
Faulkner, Long Beach California,
the 1951 Darlington victor.
Johnnie Parsons, 1950 Darling
ton winner predicted the new rec
ord would reach 125 mph!
The Darlington field, originally
closed at thirty-eight entries was
reduced to thirty-six through with-
drawls. Most regrettable was the
excusing of Marshall Teague, Day
tona Beach, former AAA stock car
champion by the stewards when
his car, the Fullerton Special,
could not be repaired in time for

Clemson, June 29—South Card-
lina cotton growers are now in a
critical stage in their fight to con
trol boll weevils. Reports from 37
nd county agents indicate the boll
ijTnveeyil population is increasing in
spite of hot dry weather. The first
generation of new weevils is re
ported from Barnwell county.
In general cotton growth
throughout the state has been
hindered because of the continued
drouth. Some sections have had
showers w’hich have stimulated
growth. Boll worms are reported
increasing in Coastal Plain coun
ties and spider mites are reported
in Lexington, Marlboro, and New
berry y counties. The thrips and
aphid population is decreasing.
The 37 counties from which
reports were received applied in
secticides to about 230,600 acres of
cotton last week to raise the total
treated acres in the state to date
to 312,000 acres or about 1/S of
the state’s planted acreage,. The
reports show an average infesta
tion of 6 percent in fields which
have been treated and 18 percent
in fields w T hich have not been
treated.
The Clemson Extension Cotton
Committee recommends: (1) Cot
ton growers should continue to
make regular, systematic weekly
applications of insecticides — : for
effective state-wide control an ap
plication of a recommended in,-
secticide should be made to every
acre of cotton in the state un
less an infestation count shows
an application is not needed; (2)
insecticides should be applied in,
late afternoons or during the even
ing or early morning hours when
there is little or no wind—observa
tions by members of the commit
tee indicate some growers are
not getting full returns from ap
plications because they are mak
ing them during mid-day when
winds are blowing the dust away;
and (3) cotton shoi^d be cultivated
only when needed to control weeds
and grass—cultivations during dry
hot weather are detrimental.
