Winston Salem Journal Winston Salem Thursday October 2 Page 63 Howard Charlo tie razier Makes Reign Appears Over Pearson Takes National Pole Dempsey's both Louis and Mar Jersey Joe Humpy Wheeler recently added to the track's staff as director of development may be the man taking place Wheeler was involved with irestone's racing opera tion when that company was actively battling Goodyear on the Grand National circuit Elder has a fairly rich sponsor in Olympic Beer but Insolo is a straight up independent In solo here will be driving a very competitive car one George ollmer ran at Riverside really notice that bump in the first turn as much looking oddly diminished in size and Ali was too tired to walk out there and hit him Still Ali won Wednesday evening Ali dined with President and Mrs erdi nand Marcos in Malacanang Palace razier had several hundred guests at a in the penthouse of his hotel Like a proper host he I guess have to change But boy it sure is Insolo and Ray Elder are the Petty and Pearson act on the other side of the country the most extravagant ever seen has reportedly lost out a power struggle with Bruton Smith for control of the multi million dollar speedway Just five months igo Howard said that he felt he had Smith on the verge of selling remaining stock in the track But throughout the summer it seems that Smith has been able to buy up enough stock 158200 just behind 158483 still in the bailgame That Pearson he takes it so easy in the cor ners all the rest of us are taking our cars much deeper than he is but boy when Pearson gets ready to come off the corners you just listen to that engine Buddy Baker usually the tensest man around on pole day wasn't worried at all when time came for him to run Pearson's practice laps sure did take some pressure off me this laughed Baker fifth quickest at 157816 ollowing Pearsori Marcis oyt Waltrip and Baker were Parsons (157733) Yarborough (157591) Bobby Allison (157772) Johnny Rutherford 156740) Lennie Pond (156622) and Dick Brooks (156331) Non qualifiers in eluded Donnie Allison (154542) Darel Dieringer (155849) Bobby Isaac (155097) and Charlie Glotz bach (156273) Only 23 cars attempted to qualify but with the average speed of the first twelve qualifiers being 157:883 it was easy to see why shaped up rigged out in dinner clothes with dark glasses con cealing bruises about

because I sure want to get in another fight In a moment he had: microphone in hand superstitious about you he sang I better knock knock on He did a chorus he urged everybody to dance and then a number of the Checkmates took over The Checkmates are a trio and at the fight they had sung Star Spangled in relay are here tonight" the Checkmate said we respect a certain He got no argument from listeners They all smiling watching Joe dance at his own funeral and win 'enough shareholders to oust Howard Power struggles at this track have been going for years and every time Howard won though sometimes by quite narrow margins Board meetings for particular corporation often were more spectacular than the wild races Howard would promote In 1964 Howard took over this track persuading a judge to allow him to run the speedway under federal bankruptcy rules Howard turned the track into one of the most profitable anywhere Smith a millionaire finan cier now had joined the late Curtis Turner in constructing the track in 1959 and 1960 But both were ousted after the track became a financial flop Smith began buying back stock in the track two years ago uries Rip Westchester HIGH POINT Yelton scored three

told me when the car gets like that just to put my foot down on the gas Strange as it sounds that works At least it did for me Maybe it has something to do with down pressure But its a weird sensation to have to react to something like Jimmy Insolo deserves to make it in this sport if only because he is honest And honesty in this business is a rare commodity Besides that Insolo the West Coast sensa tion making his first start at this bewildering track is a heckava good driver Just ask Richard Petty or Bobby Allison they both ate his dust for 70 miles in Tuborg 400 in June place well worse than it Insolo said with a Petty like grin only superspeedway race ever seen in the South was here a Continued rom Page 61 NASCAR might be somehow swayed into modifying next rules to penalize ord engines

Pearson was practicing He had the pole locked up Um No we're not disap echoed Darrell Waltrip fourth fastest at couple of years ago And what Petty and those guys were do ing it just flat scared me

nonsense But razier drags the truth out of him razier is the best fighter Ali has ever met and he makes Ali fight better than he knows how They have fought three times In the first Ali fought better than ever beforehand In the third he fought better still This one ranks up there with the most memorable heavyweight matches of our time Dempsey irpo two with Tunney Schmeling bouts first with Walcott i' It was really three fights Ali won the first through the early rounds he outboxed and out scored razier doing no great damage but nailing him with clean sharp shots as Joe bore The second fight was all the fifth round through the 11th he just beat hell out of Ah When the cham pion tried to cover up against the ropes razier bludgeoned him remorselessly pounding body and arms until the hands came down hooking fiercely to the head as the protective shell chipped away When Ali grabbed an excellent referee slapped his gloves away Then it was the 12th round and the start of the third fight and Ali won going away Where he got the strength no man can say for his weariness was as he said to In the 13th a straight right to the chin razier reeling back on a UP1 Telephoto David Pearson left and Dave
