Haven't gone to the microfilm much lately. Holidays and trying to catch up with all the loose pieces of papers stacked up around here.
Two older bits of information that will have to be incorporated into what is already known:
May 22 and 24, 1915 -- Motorcycle races at The Willows in Victoria. Vancouver riders including professionals "Sandy" Bennett, Alan Ross, George McEwan, Fred Bell, C.H. Edwards and amateurs Rayner, Kenneth Craig, Pat Pettipiece, Bob McEwan and W. Olson. Olson was said to be the present holder of the B.C. 5-mile championship. Will have to get the Victoria newspapers out for further details.
June 12, 1915 -- First automobile race of the year at Seattle's Madison Park. Some drivers scheduled to race were Joe Thomas, Rae Lentz and Charles Latta. Eddie Pullen, of the Mercer racing team, was supposed to officiate as starter. No results found but worth digging for.
