Fonty Flock returned after his shoulder injury from Martinsville. He ran
in a backup car for Frank Christian, as Roscoe Thompson was already
driving the #14 that Fonty Flock had been driving before his injury.

Fonty Flock was relieved by Jack Smith. According to Greg Fielden's
Forty Years of Stock Car Racing, Flock would have received 152 points
for 7th, but instead received 58 points while Smith received 94 points
because the relief driver rules back then awarded points based on the
percentage of laps they ran. Based on my calculation, Flock must have
run about 38 laps, which makes sense since Jack Smith had fallen out by
lap 30.

Note: the other race scheduled at Occonnechee, N.C. (100 miles and
purse: $4,000.00) on the same day, April 20, has been canceled due to
lack of entries.

All of the starting spots are accounted for except 24th. Harold Mays did
not start, but is credited with a '0th' starting spot. His starting
position should be 24th.
