From 1961 through 1965 and again from 1967 through 1970 they ran Springfield and Milwaukee on back to back days. In 1961 Milwaukee was first with Springfield having the first show every year thereafter. Since the dirt series broke away the only time that I can recall two races being scheduled back to back was in 1982 when Williams Grove was slated for July 3rd and Flemington the next night. Williams Grove was rained out and Doug Wolfgand won at Flemington in the Stanton #75.
