Motorcycle Races of Yesteryear

 From Crittenden Press archives comes this little interesting tidbit about Motorcycle Races being held here.

 

August 1948 - The people of Marion and surrounding territory will have the opportunity to attend one of the best motorcycle races meets in this section of the country next Sunday, August 8th, (1948).

Entries from a large number of the best competition riders insure a thrilling performance for top honors in the nine big events to be held at Crayne Field.  

The riders will be circling the track at top speed and all the machines will be without brakes.
