I got the Des Moines Register microfilm for July 1964 and found lots of information on the USRRC race. There were a few little blurbs the week before and coverage of tech which was performed at the Des Moines Airport Friday and evidently involved braking from speed, qualifying results from Saturday, and Race results from Sunday. Not many pictures and most focused on Jim Hall's Chapparal which was the favorite. No mention of the jail incident that I found, but I got to thinking this was '64, they probably wouldn't have printed something like that anyway.

I plan to retype the better articles on my web page in the next week or so. I still need to check the Indianola paper which isn't on microfilm. Not sure when I can do that, the place that has it is only open thursday afternoons.
