Not
many
cars,
but
close
races
The
field
of
cars
was
small,
but
racing
was
close
at
the
PGARA
Speedway
Saturday
night.
Stock
car
racing
has
been
in
a
slump
here
this
year
and
Saturday's
field
of
just
17
cars
and
a
crowd
of
fewer
than
200
people
was
the
smallest
in
more
than
five
years.
But
the,
nine
$299
claimers
and
eight
limited
stocks
put
on
the
best
show
they
could,
with
several
close
races,
a
lot
of
bumping
and
two
spectacular
crashes.
Claimer
points
leader
John
Baker
had
quick
time
in
his
section
of
qualifying
at
17.768
seconds,
while
veteran
Joe
Sabatino
was
quick
in
limited
stocks
at
17.282,
as
there
were
just
75
laps
ran
in
seven
races
far
less
than
the
PGARA
average.
No
one
was
able
to
win
more
than
once,,
although
Bernie
Lewis
did
make
two
victory
laps'
with
the
checkered
flag
in
limited
stocks
a
result
of
confusion
after
a
crash
in
the
heat.
Dave
Baker,
running
well
all
night,
won
the
claimer
trophy
dash
and
Lewis
won
the
dash
for
limited
stocks.
Len
Hanson
led
fom
start
to
finish
in
the
claimer
heat,
then
the
confusion
came
in
the
limited
stock
heat.
Warren
Bergman
was
leading
when
he
and
Lewis
and
Larry
London
were
involved
in
a
wild
spinning
accident
between
turns
three
and
four.
Bergman
went
on
to
win,
according
to
track
officials,
although
the
victory
lap
was
made
by
Lewis.
The
first
of
two
bad
crashes
came
in
the
20-lap
claimer
main,
as
Walter
Bitz
crashed
Ken
Friesen's
car
hard
into
the
concrete
wall
after
going
wide
out
of
the
fourth
corner.
Bitz
wasn't
hurt
and
Bruce
MacDonald
went
on
to
win.
MacDonald,
'second
in
claimer
point
standings,
took
advantage
of
John
Baker's
blown
engine
to
close
the
gap
on
the
defending
points
champion.
'
The
most
spectacular
crash
came
'in
the
20-lap
limited
stock
main.
Lewis
and
Paul
Brown
got
locked
up
along
the
back
chute
in
the
sixth
lap.
Lewis
disappeared
into
the
pits
and
Brown
crashed
hard
into
the
huge
truck
tires
on
the
outside
of
the
end
of
the
chute.
His
car
was
completely
airborne,
but
came
back
down
on
its
wheels'
and
Brown
was
able
to
finish
the
race,
taking
third
from
Warren
Bergman
in
a
close
charge
to
the
line.
Larry
London
held
off
a
challenge
from
Steve
Arronge
with
some
steady
driving
to
win.
A
five-lap,
four-car
media
race
produced
a
one-two
finish
for
entertainers
Cec
Shaw
and
Ian
Johnstone.
The
next
racing

"I'm
going
to
be
around
a
long
time,"
said
Starr.
"And
if
anybody
tries
to
rub
our
nose
in
it
like
that
when
we're
down
38-3
by
calling
play-action
passes,
so
help
me
God,
I'll
never
forget
it."
'
Told
of
Starr's
angry
comments,
Fairbanks
said:
"It
was
an
offensive
game,
and
we
had
some
interceptions
and
good
runbacks.
We
weren't
particularly
interested
in
the
score.
We
were
looking
for
players
that
might
help
the
ball
club
during
the
season."
Two
players
Fairbanks
found
were
the
top
choices
on
his
shopping
list
at
the
last
NFL
draft,
first-round
picks
Raymond
Clayborn
and
Stanley
Morgan,
who
scored
on
punt
returns
of
88
and
62
yards,
respectively.

Buffalo's

Simpson,
