Moore collection
Summer - 1933
Lonnie Rose and Russell Moore, motorcycle riders from Arkansas City who were entered in the Oklahoma – Kansas championships at Winfield Tuesday, suffered scratches about the head and body bruises in two minor accidents. Rose crashed through a fence during a race and Moore’s machine did a “flip-flop” on the track. Neither is seriously injured. (Webmaster’s note: Moore also suffered two sprained ankles in this accident on the northwest turn causing him to miss two weeks work.)
