He was jockeying for the best position | with two other cars, when the right | pacers, rear tire blew. As the tire parted company with his "Car", he dex- teriously brought the swerving car back under control and stopped, after pulling off to the side of the track. . Foresight Valuable + It was a miraculous act of provi- dence that no one was injured, it stressing emphatically the wishes of L. Dobson, the Director of Events, that people be kept away from the end of the track, The concluding event, a dash through a "Wall of Flame", closed things up with a bang, Saturday . night, Louis Pantry, Toronto, rid- ing for his first time in this sort of game with death, although an old hand at racing in the States and Canada, climbed aboard his stripped Harley and girding: himself with necessary courage, crashed through the blazing inferno at its height. His trousers, soaked with oil, from working on the machines earlier that day, caught fire and he suf- fered a scorched left leg, although it id not need medical atiention. The winner of the "scrambled <pace", composed of eight vehicles, was Garfield Loughrey, Toronto, who was driving a light half-ton panel sound truck, 2 Lloyd Shaw Second close on the heels of Jalopy, Car Parade Attracts Crowds Shortly efter 1 pm, turday, the jalopy and midget car parade got under way, leaving from Rotary Park. It continued north along Rotary Park. It continued north along Simcoe Street to Alexandra Park and was led by the Markham |! High School Band. Throngs of children and grown-ups lined the streets, cheering and shouting, The jalopies panted and steamed along, lions ofl and dripping was ter, They were painted with vari- ous signs and statements, some of wilich, the meanings, were only known to the owner. Pals and friends loaded the tired old oars down, eas if to see them well on their way to what might be their last resting place. In sharp contrast to these "jalop. ies" were the sleek, chrome plated and brightly gleaming midget They either moved along faces, their own power, or were towed by cars or trucks, the latter ones having a direct drive and therefore necessitating » tow for such glow speeds. : connecting rod, Hoskins romped home a winner of the race which, was finally cancelled for lack of competition, si Hoskins was then matched against Burns McDonald, Hagersville, who was driving a half-mile racer, Dur- ing the six lap, three mile run, Mc- Donald pulled ahead, kept the lead and screamed over 'the finish line to win by halt 3 a lap. His time was clocked at three-fifth seconds. Oshawa Driver First In the three mile stock-car race Bill Anderson, Oshawa, placed first, time, four minutes, 26 and two- fifth seconds; Ken Powers, Oshawa, came second and Stirling Whellar, Longbranch, placed third. R. N, ght, Oshawa, driving a body-less 1926 Chevrolet, won first place in the three mile jalopy race, while Mr. Catto, Toronto, took sec- ohd. Ken Walker, - Toronto, was pulled out at the last minute, due to a poor showing on the time trial run, Oshawa's now favorite Hoskins was brought back on the dirt track and stacked up against Burns Mc- Donald, Hagersville, who drove a black, sleek-looking half-mile racer. This race was closely contested, but McDonald, gaining ground on the curves, pulled ahead, to win first * | place, taking three minutes, 30 and three-fifth seconds fer the three- mile run.

Richard Wright, Oshawa, placed second and Barney Robinson third, Crowd Disappointed A disappointment to the crowd was the inability of Lloyd Shaw, to, to get his special built half-mile racer operating satisfac torily. This car 'was rebuilt and as- spmbled since Wednesday night and mn the haste, it was explained, the twin earburetors were not adjusted properly, putting the timing out. For the old hands that had seen this type of 'racing before, the events were okay, but all too 'few.
