Enduro Riders set
for National Event
Spectators who watched last
year will have the opportunity
again to see the thrilling Na-
tional Motorcycle Event, held
for tg second time in the Back
MounVain area June 7. The Back
Mt. Enduro Riders, preparing
for oe endurance event of na-
for A, urpacs have already
received entries from New
Jersey, New York, Illinois, Vir-
ginia, Ohio, Massachusetts,
Kentucky, Tennessee, Del-
aware, Michigan and many
parts of Pennsylvania.
The event will begin at
Kunkle Community Hall,
Kunkle, approximately three
miles north of Dallas, about one
mile west of Rt. 309, at 8 a.m. It
will be 100 miles through the
woods, fields, streams, sec-
ondary roads, swamps and
Back Mountain terrains, and
will last from five to six hours.
About 400 to 500 riders are ex-
pected to participate.
Buses will be available to
transport spectators who can
watch ‘the riders at areas des-
ignapgd by officials.’ Refresh-
menfS will be available all day
during the Enduro. Breakfast
and dinner will be served.
Riders are all members of the
American Motorcycle Associa-
tion which sanctions the event.
Mangiof the riders are busi-
nessmen, well respected by
everyone. Most of them are
seldom seen on the highways.
They are ‘‘off-the-road’” en-
thusiasts who transport their
machines to each event. The
Back. Mt. Enduro Riders are
well-known throughout
Wyoming Valley and the Back
Mountain. They have sponsored
several events in the past and
have performed many times.
The 100 mile National Event
is not a race, but a test of skill,
ability and endurance of riders
and their machines. An average
speed of about 20 miles per hour
is predetermined. There are
signs posted where that average
is too fast for safety. Riders lose
points if they exceed the aver-
age.
Check points unknown to the
riders are located at various
spots where personnel using
stop watches know exactly
when the rider is due. The rider
is penalized if he is too early or
too late. Arrows mark the way
for the full course.
All riders must wear protec-
tive clothing including helmets,
eye protection, protective
pants, shoes, gloves and
jackets. The motorcycles are
subject to inspection.
Riders under the age of 21
must have authorization of
parent or guardian. Special
classes are available for riders
over 45. Powder puff entries are
also accepted.
Permission is obtained from
all property owners for a spon-
sored event and riders must
accept all responsibility for any
injury they may receive.

no reason
given Brobst
The question as to why Clint
Brobst was dismissed as coach
of the Dallas Senior High School
basketball team still remains
unanswered, The Post learned
this week. Mr. Brobst has not
received the letter of explana-
tion which was promised to him
at last month’s Dallas School
Board meeting.
At the May 12 meeting, Mr.
Brobst himself, as well as
several of the 150 citizens pre-
sent, pressed the school di-
rectors for a reason for the
abrupt dismissal after 15 years
of successfully coaching Dallas’
basketball teams. At the meet-
ing, school director Milton
Evans stated that he would sug-
gest to the board that they write
a letter to Mr. Brobst and re-
lease it to news media. Mr.
Brobst accepted this proposal,
admidst applause from the as-
sembled crowd.
When contacted, Mr. Evans
said he has not had a chance to
suggest that the letter be sent
because the board has been
busy working on the budget. He
stated that he is still planning to
suggest that a letter be written
but cannot say when.
