SPEEDWAY FINAL
ATTACK ON TRACK RECORD,
Three special features promise to combine to make the final meeting at the XUbiraie Speedway Stadium to-morrow night a fitting wind-up to the season and some splendid ndmg Should be witnessed. The Pop^r oca crack, W. Kilmister, will start the cinder shifting with an attack on the track record, and in view o fthe fine performances he has put up during the past few weeks it is more than probable that he will leave fresh figures to- stand till next season. Kilmister will then appear in a series of three match races against the Australian, Lionel Van Praag, himself a record holder. Kilmister succeeded m defeating Van Praag at Palmerston North on Wednesday night, and tho Australian can be expected to be all out to turn the tables. ■In any event the competition should be interesting all the ".way. Also on the programme will be a contest for the Goldeii Helmet, and this should produce some closely contested races between the star riders. There will also be a big handicap race, the final of which will decide the holder of the Clark and Morns Cup.' At the meeting the opportunity will be taken of farewelling Kilmister, who is leaving shortly for England.;
