Jimmie Gray Takes First
Place in Pinewood Derby
The Cub Scout Pinewood Derby,
with more than 30 entries, was
held Saturday evening at the
School Auditorium, witnessed by
an enthusiastic audience o f
Scouts, their families and friends.
The race cars made to special
specifications by the boys and
their fathers, were cleverly con
structed and decorated. As they
sped over the race track, the ex
citement ran high, with Jimmie
Gray, son of Mr. and Mrs. Clin
ton Gray, winning first place, and
Peter Otton, son of Mr. and Mrs.
David Otton, taking second place.
The winner was challenged by
last year’s champion, Lloyd Har
dy, and a two-out-of-three race
was run, with the new winner,
Jimmie Gray, still the champ.
The judges, Don Perkins and
Emily Boucher, said it was most
difficult to choose the most attrac
tive and best-made car, as so
many of them showed many hours
of careful work and excellent
workmanship. Teddy Arnold’s
highly polished red racer placed
first, with Mike O’Connor’s sec
ond. Mike’s even had tail fins and
a windshield.
Starter for the race was Maur
ice Kelliher, with Cubmaster Doug
Scott as announcer. Emil Kowal
czyk and Bob Emmons weighed
in the cars, which could not be
over five ounces.
