A resolution directing the Division of Beaches and Parks-to take
all possible steps to establish a’
state park at Malakoff DigginsNorth Bloomfield is speeding
through the state legislature.
“Sen. Ron Cameron of this district told the Nugget today that
i] Tuesday morning he had steered
St. from-Broad St. during the race. Numerous tires were blown, and spills recorded, as the race
temperature approached 100 degrees Sunday.
Parsons Takes First In Spectacular Race
NEVADA CIT Y---The Third Annual Tour of Nevada City provided the most spectacular bicycle race yet for an appreciative and warm audience of more
than 2500 Sunday.
Bob Parsons, of La Canada,
Calif., came from half a lap
behind in the final ten miles of
the 45 mile race to win the event
with ease.
Parsons overtook Dave Capron,
Mountain View 17-year-old, who
seemed to have the victory assured after he and Ramond An_ drews, Menlo Park, broke from
the pack and built up a sizeable
lead.
Capron, whotook second place
last year in the Junior race, kept
up his blistering pace and left
Andrews behind, But the pace was
too much for the young lad, and
when Pan-American Games star
Parsons pressed with a burst of
speed, Capron could keep pace
with his challenger only for a few
laps.
For Parsons, it was a great victory. He had won the race to Colfax Saturday, beating Bob Tetzlaff and other top riders in the
process. :
Parsons became the man in
Nevada City who took the crown
from two-time winner Tetzlaff,
bike speedster from Los Gatos.
The defending champ had
trouble on the course this year.
He was forced to change wheels
during the race when his gear
sprocket failed him, and he took
one spill that held him up additional time:-In spite of this, the
Los Gaton picked up eighth place
in the race,
Tetzlaff was not the only rider
to suffer problems during the
race. a
There were numerous blowouts, the extreme heat of the day
taking a heavy toll of bike tires
that are normally inflated to high
pressure for less. road friction.
And the spills were numerous,
though none resulted in injury.
And the spectators made their
usual treks across the course, with
the normal close calls that result
from a 40 -mile-an-hour bicyclist
bearing down on a suddenly
frightened target.
Officials of the ABL called the
race “excellent”, and even the
90 degree official temperature
whichwas more like 100 degrees
onthe course did not dampen the
enthusiasm of rider and spectator.
Ian Mahon, Canadian representative at the Pan-American
Games, followed Parsons and
Capron tothe finish line, and paid
tribute to the race of the champion.
Andrews was able to maintain

the bill through the Senate Natural Resources Committee,
which recorded a unanimous "do
pass” vote.
The bill now proceeds to the
Senate “consent calendar," and
a final vote of the full senate is
}expected Thursday or Friday.
Cameron expects the resolution
to pass barring unforeseen obstacles,
TELL SEE EL EE ELD LL ALES
Mayor Robert Carr of Nevada
City said this morning that if the
Malakoff legislation passes, he
would like to lead a “limousine
tour" to North Bloomfield to show
that contrary to popular opinion,
the roadsto the park site are safe
and well graded.
"Some people seem to think
youcan only get there by jeep, "
Carr said.
To prove his point, Carr proposes to take his own car, which
he describes as "the lowest in the
county." He would like the.
"tour" to arrive at the proposed
park in time for lunch. He did
not say whether he would provide
the lunch,
Last week, Assemblyman Paul
Lunardi obtained Assembly passage of the resolution, He is author
of the bill, and Cameron is coauthor.
A further boost for Nevada.
County's Malakoff project is also
under consideration by a joint
Senate-Assembly conference
committee, the Nugget learned.
Under the proposed $19 million
state park land acquisition bill
now before the legislature, there
is a movement afoot to return the
Malakoff project to the priority
list of land to be purchased, on a
“first alternate" basis,
