Most midgets of season
 

If I am not mistaken, there were more midgets at Kokomo last night than at Belleville,Eldora, and The Gold Crown.Could it be that outside of the Chili Bowl the most midgets on hand at an event this season.Strange, but very good. Any ideas.

Three weeks ago at Little Belleville there were 47 midgets , I'm not real sure but think there was in the 40ish range at the spring indoor race at DuQuion race, We"ll have to wait a couple more weeks and see how many show up at Wayne City which last year had I believe 57. So are you talking about a just USAC show or a PowrI show or a combined show? :8:

Looks like a combination of attrition and distance from Indianapolis
