The Auto Races
The fair will come to a glori
ous close on Saturday with the
first honest-to-goodness profes
sional auto races ever attempted
in this part of the state. On the
track will be a number of the
fastest racing cars with drivers
who have raced for gold and
glory at Daytona Beach and In-
diannapolis.
These races will be offered
through the fair by the Gray
Auto and Air Racing Associ
ation, of Daytona Beach, Fla.,
W. L. Darracott, manager and
official starter, was here last
week making final arrangements
tor the races on Saturday, Sep
tember 22, and Frank Austin,
widely known race driver, has
been superintending the grading
of the track. Some of the driv
ers are hoping to set new rec
ords for the one-third mile track
in breat’ii-taking bursts of speed
on the track here.
Officials of the fair say they
have reason to make the state
ment that the 1934 exposition
will be “bigger and better than
ever.’’ This prediction is based
on what the fair president has
en.gaged as attractions and the
fact that crops are excellent with
prospects bright for unexcelled
exhibits.
Possibly no other section of
North Carolina produces pro
ducts of a better quality than in
Wilkes county and agricultural
officials who have viewed the
fair here are enthusiastic in
their praise of Wilkes apples,
livestock, corn, and various oth
er exhibits. On exhibit at the fair
here will be products that will be
forwarded to the North Carolina
state fair and international
shows to vie for further honors.
