Jarrett Drives Ford to Southern 500 Victory at Darlington
Ned Jarrett, 32, factory Ford driver from Camden, D.C., won the Southern 500 at Darlington, snagging $20,200 prize money after leaders Darel Dieringer and Fred Lorenzen faltered with brake and engine trouble. Buddy Baker finished second in a 1965 Plymouth, with Ar rington fifth and Mayne fourth. Dieringer led 187 laps but tire and brake failures doomed his bid, while Lorenzen briefly led before engine failure. Late crashes injured rookie Baron Skeen. Yarborough escaped serious harm after a spectacular spill that damaged the guard rail.
