The early birds this week were the Fords of Lorenzen and Hutcherson, beating all other factory cars through the inspection sheds Monday at NASCAR's newest speedway. Lorenzen, stock car rat - ing's most successful chauffer with more than $250,000 won since he joined Holman Moody in 1961, grinned when informed of the history behind theearly bird and then cracked, "sounds like I have a very good chance of filling out my flush." He was referring to the fact that a win at N. C. Motor Speedway would make him the only driver in history to score victories at all of the South's super speedways. Lorenzen was the first to score a grand slam with wins at Charlotte, Darlington, Atlanta, and Day tona. Rut Junior Johnson made it a two man club. Johnson is retired now, and Lorenzen would like nothing better than to confirm what many racing fans already think...that he is in a class at the very top all by himself. Lorenzen, incidentally , never led a lap of the first race at N. C. Speedway. The Rambler, previously entered by Larry Hess has been withdrawn.FI ess, says its not ready to race. This could have made history because it would have been the first race in which all four American manufacturers would have been represented (.eneral Motors, Ford, Chrysler and American Motors. A Rambler has never com peted in an American Stock car race. It's predecessor, Nash, did record one victory on NASCAR's Cranu National circuit in 1951. Buck Baker, the grand old man of racing and three time winner of the Darlington Southern 500 was the driver. The next race on the cir cuit will be staged at the best and most beautiful track at Bristol Tenn. Sunday March 20. This will be a 250 mile race around a 1/2 mile track. Then they move on to Atlanta International Raceway for the 7th annual 500 mile race.This could have been a busy month for the C.rand National dri vers. Races that were wiped out due to weather conditions were the 10 mile race sche duled for Spartanburg fast Saturday afternoon and the 150 mile race scheduled for the Asheville - Weaverville track on Sunday. With two weeks el apsed since the Daytona 500, the drivers will be well rested and the cars in A-1 Shape. Point standings and money winners so far are: David Pearson, $14,610 and 7,882 points, Ned Jarrett $5,495 and 6,952, Richard Petty, $21,350 and 6,734 points and Cale Yarborough $9,490 and 6,176 points.

The house lights dimmed; the stark set was revealed; the chorus came on with its brooding note of doom and death. You could have heard a feather drop as a thousand youngsters sat enthralled Suddenly a ripple of sound went through the theatre The ripple rapidly became a wave The chorus, in the best show tradition, bravely pressed on. its chant almost lost in the swelling titter The ghost of the old opera house had taken over He had assumed the form of a large bat The noise and lights had frightened him out of his eyrie among the rafters And he put on a display of aerobatics that stole the show He swooped and swirled over audience and actors He flickered through the shad ows, in ever-descending cir cles that had all the girls clutching their hair He peeled off and dive-bombed the chorus, making it duck collectively and frantically floorwards He disappeared intermit tently, but, a born scene-steal er, was right on cue for his entries Thomas Beckett, Archbishop of Canterbury in toned. "For a little time the hungry hawk will only soar and hover, circling lower And there was Mr Bat, whistling around the actor's ears The chorus wailed. "I have heard fluting in the night time have seen scaly wings slanting over" And guess who was fluting around gaily on his acaly wings, right past their noses All In all, a diverting eve ning in the theatre. 1 won't speak for the players, bat the kids and the bat loved it My second reviving experi ence was not with a bat, but a butterfly. I think that term best describes my 14-year-old. She flits She can't quite de^ cide whether she's going to be a writer, a folk singer, a con cert pianist or a basketball player Last Saturday, I took her to the city, to compete in the world's biggest music festival. Competition is rough Her teacher and her mother had both told her she hadn't a chance. "Because you haven't worked hard enough." She was pretty jittery Teeth chattering, great ner vous yawns, four trips to the bathroom in 20 minutes My heart bled for her In her first class there were 12 competitors Guess who was last It was for students 20 and under They were all good Even though I've been to a hundred festivals, and am pretty worldly, my spirits sank, for her sake The bell clanged. She went on stage. And as I sat, turning purple while holding my breath through a Bach pre lude and fugue, she played UVe a tiger. Second place we *ke. We tottered out of the audi torium in a daze, leapt into a cab, rushed to meet her Mom. and hurled her words back in her face The kid repeated twice dur ing the afternoon, and we ar rived home after a 12-hour day and a 200-mile trip, stag gering with exhaustion but flushed with triumph Of bats and butterflies, I guess, is the essence of life.
