Saturday afternoon when the na tion's leading speed merchants vie for the 1936 southern AAA cham pionship. .. M. . -.. Frankie Beeder, the handsome young gent from St. Louis who made such a hit here last year, has been nominated by Johnny Bagley to drive the McDowell special which carried the late George “Doc” Mackenzie to the Eastern cham pionship last year and his death in Milwaukee last August. Mackenzie crashed a fence while rounding a turn at breakneck speed, rolled over four times, and died a few hours later. Bagley gathered up the pieces of his car and an nounced it never would be raced again. Beeder went to the former Omaha police sergeant and beg ged for a chance to take the fa mous car back into competition. “So you want to drive that one, Frankie,"'Bagley said; * “Well, if you’re willing. 111 fix ’er up an! you can have it.” Bagley’s decision to rebuild the car and let Beeder take It proved a profitable decision as Beeder shot home in front many times in the past three weeks, and last Satur day at Richmond he took the lead in the Southern championship fight by making a clean sweep of the elimination heat and feature race.

A break into the win col umn has been forecast for Shelby, with a defeat first from Hickory, a tie with Cherryville. Kings Mountain’s coach, Pete Moss, says he has no material at all and that the team is weakest in years, but the team has the fighting spirit. The local team is hampered with injuries and inex perience, but is expected to play its best game Thursday. The scrap will begin at 4 o’clock at Kings Mountain.
