Speedway race may
have 5 Indy champs
Five Indianapolis 500 former winners are expected to enter the
American Parts 200 at Texas World Speedway on July 31. The former
winners represent eleven victories at the famous brickyard.
Among those expected are two time winner Johnny Rutherford of
Ft. Worth and fellow Texan A. J. Foyt of Houston, the only four time
winner, Al and Bobby Unser of Albuquerque, New Mexico, each a
two time winner and Gordon Johncock who is also defending national
champion.
Several new cars are expected to run here for the first time includ
ing those of Al Unser, Gordon Johncock and Wally Dallenbaeh.
Speeds are expected to be high and depending on the number of
caution laps, there could be a new world record. The old record for
two hundred miles was set here in October 1973 when Gary Bet-
tenhausen averaged better than 181 miles per hour. Since then every
race held here has averaged faster times but yellow caution flags have
slowed the pace at the end.
The American Parts 200 offers Texans a chance to see the Indy 500
cars and drivers in their home state. The race is referred to as the
“Indy of the Southwest. ”
Practice for the American Parts 200 begins on July 30 and will be
followed by a live on stage concert in the speedway infield for over
night campers.
Time trials will begin at 11:00 a.m. July 31 with the 200 mile
national championship event starting at 3:15 p.m.
Tickets for the American Parts 200 are still available.
Officials at Texas World Speedway in College Station and Jerry
Daughtrey, the promoter at Navasota Speedway in Navasota jointly
announced that a Texas Race of Champions qualifying race will be
held this Saturday at Navasota Speedway.
The Texas Race of Champions (TROC) will be staged at Texas
World Speedway on Saturday, October 15, 1977. The race will fea
ture the best drivers of stock cars and road racing sedans from Texas
area race tracks.
The winner of the Super Stock feature race at Navasota Speedway
Saturday night will earn an automatic starting spot in the line-up for
the Texas Race of Champions, a race that has become recognized as
Texas’ biggest and richest racing event for Texas drivers and TROC
legal cars. This year’s race will be 100 miles long on the two mile road
racing circuit which employs 22 degree banked ovals and infield
racing tracks.
The winner of the Super Stock feature race, also wins four tickets
to the Indy car race at Texas World Speedway July 31.

Memories of one of baseball’s
greatest moments will be
aroused by the Texas Ranger Old
Timers game held this Saturday
at Arlington Stadium.
The game will cast the New
York Giant old timers against the
former Brooklyn Dodgers in a
recreation of the 1951 National
League playoff between the two
teams. With the three-game
series tied at one win apiece, the
Dodgers nursed a 4-1 going into
the ninth inning. The Giants
scored a run and with two men
on base, Bobby Thomson put a
Ralph Branca pitch into the
stands to bring the National
League pennant to New York.
Thomson and Branca will he
matched once again in the two-
inning contest at Arlington
Stadium starting at 7:20 p.m.

Will There Be Blood
If You Need It?
.... only if there's a volunteer donor
to provide it.
Like yourself.
Blood has to come from another
human being. It cannot be
manufactured.
You can be that volunteer donor on
July 13-14.
That’s when the Texas A&M Blood
Club has its Summer blood drive.
Wadley Central Blood Bank is proud
to have been associated with this 12th
Man tradition of service to humanity
during the past 18 years. We look
forward to continuing to participate in
the Texas A&M Blood Club drives tor
many years to come .... and we join
with all Texans in saluting this
unparalleled gesture of generosity and
concern for one's fellow man!
