Watt Powell Park becomes multi sport venue in Charleston
The column argues Watt Powell Park should host many sports beyond baseball. It defends Rockets economics and city rent, supports adding seats even if it lowers homer distances, and contends high school games will use the park daylight to dark. It praises stadium board chair Bill Barker and opposes limiting use.

Local Track To Inspect Car Entries At Charleston Speedway
Local track manager Bob Morris announced Saturday night inspection of race cars at Charleston Speedway to enforce rules amid driver confusion. Cars not meeting standards will be kept off the track, with minor infractions allowed to race under a future compliance plan. He noted legal bumpers and carburetion issues were raised last week as 33 cars participated, and officials will replace tomahawk races with consolations to boost participation. The purse for 10 races totaled 40 dollars with hope to reach 1000 dollars if turnout improves.
