State Fairgrounds One Mile Race Track Resurfaced Indianapolis, Ind. There’s a little bit of Clay County on the racetrack at the Indiana State Fairgrounds here. In fact, 4,000 tons that’s 8 million pounds were added during July to put the track in top shape for the Indiana State Fair Aug. 23-Septl. The selected rock-free yellow clay, taken from the top of Ayrshire Collieries Corporation’s Chinook Coal Field six miles south of Stanton, was added to the mile-long oval track because the old surface was wearing thin,

according to Horace E. Abbott, fair board president. To move the clay, 20 ton-capa-city tri-axle dump trucks made about 200 trips from the site near Brazil. The contractor for the haulin was the Gibson Coal and Supply Company, Inc., of Terre Haute. After the Clay County clay was dumped on the track, the C.H. Dawson Construction Company of Indianapolis graded and rolled the track. About 3 inches of new surface was added to the straightways, and about 5 inches to the turns. This is the first surface addition to the track since 1960. The track was built some 75 years ago over a gravel-and-clay base. Abbott said the rennovation was not prompted by the unusually wet summer that has at times left the track eroded and soft. Trotters and pacers stabled at the fairgrounds are exercised daily on the small inner track. The next major event on the dirt track will be the quarter horse races Aug. 20 that highlight the activities of pre-fair week. During the 11 days of the fair, the race track will be used by three major racing events and numerous other shows and demonstrations. The State Fair Century stock car race is scheduled for opening day Aug. 22, National Championship Motorcycle Races Aug. 28, and harness racing Aug. 30-Sept. 1. The weekend following the fair, the Hoosier Hundred Auto Race is scheduled on the track Sept 6. HOW TO HANDLE TRAILERS SAFELY In its “Bring ’em Back Alive” summer traffic safety campaign,

the Hoosier Motor Club, local AAA, stresses every angle, and one concerns the hauling of trailers. Automobile trailers are no longer the rarity they once were on the nation’s highways and more than 125,000 new house trailers are produced each year. Their soaring popularity for boating, vacationing and camping purposes is indicated by the great number appearing this summer. James W. Parks, executive vice president of the Hoosier Motor Club, says trailer users must be aware of the special precautions needed to handle double-vehicle driving safely and conveniently. Mr. Parks points out that all states regulate the use of trailers, with particular requirements for brakes, lights, reflectors, towing hitch, safety chains, speed, weight and size limits. A trailer is considered a separate vehicle and must be registered and display a license plate. If the trailer is to be operated in only one state, or in one or two others, a check can be made with police or state motor vehicle departments for requirements. If the trailer is to be used in many parts of the country, and if its loaded weight exceeds 40 per cent of the weight of the towing vehicle, or 1,500 pounds, generally the owner must: —Have is equipped with brakes that operate from the car’s foot pedal. —lnstall a breakaway device that will apply the trailer’s brakes in event of separation from the towing car. —lnstall two safety chains that support the trailer tongue in event of breakaway, and fasten the chans to the .frame of the car, and not to the hitch ball or bumper.
—lnstall all lighting equipment required by Interstate Commerce Commission regulations. The driver’s safety and that of others on the road is dependent upon careful hitching of the trailer. For ordinary loads, a well-engineered hitch, welded or lock-nut-bolted to the frame of the trailer is adequate. Bumper hitches are both inadequate and dangerous. The trailer should never be overloaded. There should be electrical connections for trailer tail lights, turn signals and stop lights, although these are not requirements in all states, AAA says. Car-trailer operators should carry red flags and flares to put out on the highway should the car be stopped for repairs. Wheel blocks for holding both car and trailer on grades should be carried. Flashlights and trouble lamp are indispensable for nighttime emergencies. Mr. Parks says that car-trailer operators should learn to think “two vehicles” while driving, because they are responsible for two heavy vehicles sharing the highway with others. He cautions that cornering is more difficult, stopping distance is increased, and the right-hand lane is the safest one to use. ' As a final reminder, the rig should be checked for safety equipment before starting out, and re-inspected frequently along the route.
