LASA: Los Angeles Speedboat Assocition: 1956

[Master Oil Racing Team]

Is that Henry in the middle of the back row in the second picture. What about Al Hart? is he in there?

Wayne, Henry is right behind Manual in the second picture. Al Hart and Otto Crocker. I can't remember what they look like although my uncle Fred (48Cu In) was best friends with both.

I'm going to make a copy of this picture, and number each person......My brother is NOT in the picture. Bob Jackson won LASA HIgh Point in 1953, the year my brother was in the Army. By 1956, I was racing and "JR." ran more Stocks than Alky...Russ and I agree that is Orlando behind Manny....I see Jim Schonfelt and his wife, Arnie Adams on the front row...

I doubt Al Hart was there, as he lived in NorCal. (500 miles away)...

Lowell Haberman (Anzani Guy) two to the left of Schonfelt, Bill DeSilva next to Slim Bettenger.

Looking at this picture a little closer, I think it was originally one picture. Somehow it was split into two pieces. On the back of the picture I have of dad standing behind the 2 trophies, he wrote on the back people that were there. Not a complete list, but written was Bud Cowdery, Bud Wigget, Ralph Holmes, Doc Jones, Tommy Ingalls, Arnie Adams, Chuck Parsons, Orlando, Elmo, Henry Wagner, Alex Cockburn, Ellis Esterbrook, Dale Drake, Johnny Drake. In the first picture on John Toprahanian's right is Alex Cockburn. Bottom picture; last row from the left, lady, man, Looks like one of the DeSilvas. Second from last row, fourth from left Chuck Parsons & Wife. Front row from left, Manual Carnacis, wife, Arnie Adams & wife. Second row from left, Henry Wagner? Lady, Orlando, lady, Tommy Ingalls. I'm done. Can't remember what they look like. I'm sure Jim Schoenfeldt is not in the first row.

The man to the left of Dale Drake is Doc Ingalls......Chuck Parson;s is to the right of Jm Scheonfelt..I'll post numbers tomorrow...I don't see Joh n Draje anywhere!
