Returns; Speedway Victor , NATURE NOTEBOOK Sonny Wittmeyer of Gleawood roared to victory in the 30 lap Late Model Mid-Season Championship race at Halland International Speedway Saturday night.

He .won with room to spare but was seriously challenged about midway through the race by the _Flyfai_ Irishman,. Roger XeBy when -heavy traffic -bothered - Wittmeyer. Kefly was chased an the way by Butch Holtt of Each Aurora but the Perry driver hung on to capture second. Holtz was third. A couple of years ago, Sonny Drake of East Aurora was seriously injured in a racing accident and was forced into retirement He came out of retirement this year and Saturday night won his first feature race since his accident. Drake, driving Bill Torrisi's 67 CheveUe, sped to victory in the 25 lap New Car feature race at Holland. For many laps Drake was pressed hard by Ed Anchor of Pavilion and Dick Flaig of Williamsville, both in 69 Chevelles. Drake finally managed to put a little breathing room between himself and the challengers and the victory was his. Anchor and Flaig crossed the finish line side by side with Anchor taking second. Don Patton earned his second feature win of the season in the 20 lap Amateur feature race. Patton took advantage of a good starting position at the front of the 22 car field and won the race in record time.

Stock car racing resumes at the Holland track this Saturday night with the big New Car Mid-Season Championship. Pole position will be held by Stroker McGurk of North Collins with Dick Flaig on outside pole. Racing starts at 8 p.m By Elizabeth TUift Are our days really soon to be lived out, in .a vasts land of .blacktop? Already many of our lovely old trees, in this area have gone, and more are scheduled to go. Will the word . \clover\ conjure up for our children a sweet, fragrant blossom or concrete loops on a super highway? \ Perhaps, while time remains, we, in this \beautiful part of the Northeast, should look, and see, and enjoy what we have! — ' For one thing, in this region we have a great variety of wild flowers. We have the ones which were native when most of this land was forest, and many more which were brought from Europe as \ornamentals\. These ornamentals escaped* from cultivated gardens and made themselves very much at home on our meadows and roadsides. A wild flower is a lovely thing, but after a few weeks it fades. Others take its place in a colorful procession from April tp early October. We would like to provide a weekly column to alert you to the flowers that are \in season\. There are other beautiful sights that nature has given us here, we might mention. NoW, just north- of Chaffee on Route 16 where a steep cindery bank leads up Jo the railroad, there is a mats of tall blue flowers that look like delphinium from a distance. Coming closerTyou see an unusual plant. From buds of apple blossom pink, magnificent blue petals unfold with long stamens purplish-red. If you are tempted to pick some of the viper's bugloss, wear gloves! Among its other names are blue devil and blue thistle. Those tall stems are bristly. ^ In researching viper's bugjoss, we found it was brought from Europe in 1683. To add to the beauty of the roadside here are bright pink muskmallow, and ' the white of bubble poppy - or white bottle or cow bell. Many wild flowers have a grand choice of names. Now in meadows and over-grown lawns we see the familiar devil's paintbrush, orange red flowers that top a hairy, leafless stem. Often beside it grows the yellow paintbrush or king devil. Both are natives of the Old World. Another European flower which was brought here early in American history is the \daisy\ as we call the chrysanthemum teucanthemum. •Daisies seem to be blooming almost everywhere now. They make an excellent cut flower Placed in water they keep their crisp white freshness for days. Have you noticed that bittersweet is in bloom now? Late in the fall we admire its bright red berries, but observe how lovely this wild vine is in summer, too. The flowers are like\ five pointed stars, deep purple, drooping on their - slender stalks. Bittersweet is also known as bitter nightshade and poison beny It is a relative of deadly nightshade which has white flowers and black berries, and is indeed deadly Both are related to our old friends, the potato and the tomato plant. Soon we'll be seeing the tawny-orange of the day lily, an \escapee\ that runs riot in meadows and roadsides. Sometimes, but more rarely, you'll see the yellow day lily Look for them Check This Fight cancer with an annual checkup and a contribution to , the American Cancer Society.
