Win Beaver barely totals his Buick after a wall hit while Max Simmons drives Dewey Johnson’s car and later Little Willie John’s ride. Several drivers suffer mechanicals. Spanish Mountain TV recorded the pits and Ray Graziano set a track record before engine trouble ended his run.

USOC offers plane to entice Ryan to Pan American trials
United States Olympic Committee makes unprecedented concessions to lure Jim Ryan to compete for the United States in the Pan American Games. An airplane would ferry Ryan to Minneapolis for the 1500 meter trials and back, then fly him to Winnipeg and return, with only 48 hours of his time requested. Lentz cites national pride and competition with the Americas as motivation amid other top athletes skipping trials.

Reagan Signs Night Horse Racing Bill Into Law
Gov Ronald Reagan signed a law legalizing night horse racing and extending racing days. The measure, supported by Assemblyman Bob Moretti, aims to boost California horseracing and pari mutuel revenue by at least 13 million dollars annually, with immediate effect via an urgency clause. It allows simultaneous day racing in Northern and Southern California, though most night racing plans involve harness tracks with lights. Opponents from church groups faced a behind the scenes campaign.
