TWENTY-ONE YEARS of international competition have not blunted the great talent of the former double world speedway champion, R. L. Moore, pictured above during the final and deciding test match between New Zealand and Sweden at Templeton last Saturday. His ability as a team rider is probably unsurpassed anywhere. His partner on Saturday was G. Peterson (New Plymouth) and the combination top-scored with 26 points. New Zealand won, 74-33. Next Saturday Moore will partner R. Wright in an international best pairs contest at Templeton—the first to be held at the track.
