Auto Races Set to Challenge for Kansas Free Fair Title
The Kansas Free Fair opens September 14 to 19 with open competitions for all drivers. Secretary Burdick, under pressure from fans, relents to host races after the open spaces draw bystanders and speed demons. Johnnie Gerber, who set a track mark this summer, is a major threat as veteran drivers prepare to clash. Races run Tuesday Thursday and Saturday afternoons, with a possible night race Saturday.
