TROPICAL STORM DENNIS KNOCKS OUT MCBEE MEMORIAL

FINAL POINT RACES RESCHEDULED TO SEPTEMBER 19TH

HAGERSTOWN, MD - Tropical Storm Dennis, which has pounded the east coast the

past week was also a menace to the Hagerstown Speedway Saturday night. A

heavy rain with forecast of more rain throughout the night forced Promoter

Frank Plessinger to postpone the six-feature Ewing Oil Ronnie McBee Memorial

program. Since the McBee Memorial was to be the final point races of the

season for all four divisions, some minor changes has been made to the

schedule.

The final point races have been rescheduled to Sunday afternoon,

September 19th at 1 P.M. The Richard "Boney" Bonebrake Memorial will now be

the final point race of the season for the late models. The 40-lap Memorial

will carry double points and an increased purse. The late model sportsman and

pure stocks will have two feature events, their regular features plus the

double point summer championships postponed from August 13th. The Ernie's

Salvage Yard 4-cyl pure stocks will round out the program with their final

10-lap point race of the year. "SPEEDO" the Clown has been added to the

Bonebrake Memorial. SPEEDO will be on hand to entertain race fans young and

old throughout Sundays's program.

The Ronnie McBee Memorial will now be held on Sunday afternoon, October

3rd as part of the double header program with the Silver Spring Super

Sportsman. The 44-lap Memorial will be a non-point event, but will carry the

same purse with $2,500-to-win. The Super Sportsman will be in action with a

35-lap event.

Next Sunday's program, September 12th, will remain the same. It will be

Pangborn Family Day and also Moose Day at the races. The pure stocks will

have the Jimmy Cornett Memorial, their biggest race of the year and the 4-cyl

pure stocks will have the Ernie's Salvage 25, their longest and highest

paying event. Also on the schedule will be the late models and late model

sportsman. All races will be non-point events. If that isn't enough action,

there will be a 50-lap Fall Championship Enduro and the Tommy Thompson

Memorial Demolition Derby. Race time is 1 P.M. with gates opening at 11 A.M.
