Bromley Puts Big Race at Head of Weekend Events

Unless lack of snow prevents, the second annual Open Giant Slalom for the Louise Orvis Trophy will take place at Big Bromley at 10:30 a.m. Sunday.

Any member of a division of the National Ski Association, of a foreign ski association, or of the USEASA may enter, though amateurs must show USEASA class A or B downhill or slalom classification or its equivalent.

Open Till Race Time

Entries, accompanied by the $1 entrance fee, will be accepted up to 9 a.m. Sunday.

Sanctioned by the USEASA, the race will be run over a course to be determined by snow conditions. Hannes Schneider, who developed the snowpile turn, will be course setter.

Victory in the event entitles one to have his name engraved on a trophy which is stored in Manchester, Vermont, between races.

Prize

This trophy is named in honor of Mrs. Louise Orvis, who first envisaged the possibilities for winter sports in the Bromley area around 1934. She was the first to keep any fun open in the winter time.

Entry blanks may be obtained by writing or wiring Loster Golner, Secretary of the Bromley Ski Club, P.O. Box 226, Manchester Center, Vermont.
