The price: Paul Howe, 1958 — the named fatality, verified at record strength, in his own article

18 June 1958 · South Bend Motor Speedway (boundary)

The dead, named: Paul Howe, 43, of Danville, Indiana, was killed during the 50-lap USAC National Midget feature at the South Bend Motor Speedway on Wednesday, 18 June 1958, after striking the fence, then flipping back onto the track and landing upside down. The fact stands at the strongest class of source this section can reach: USAC's own official season review of the 1958 National Midget championship prints the death, the mechanism and the race in one passage — Howe was one of two drivers the series lost in twelve midseason days, Nick Duino following him at Langhorne on 29 June — and prints the night's result whole: Rex Easton won the South Bend feature from Len Sutton and Buddy Cagle. Howe's season stands in the same record: a twelfth place at Riverside in January, an eighth at Dayton on 23 May, and 61 points, 55th in the final standings, in the championship he did not finish. He was a Danville man racing at South Bend; no record reached makes him a Granger driver, and no Granger driver is named as killed at the county track or elsewhere in any source searched — the Tribune archive and the USAC record were both run for one. The price line for this ground is therefore printed exactly: the county track's named dead of the record is Paul Howe of Danville, and Granger's own dead on the oval, in the record reached, is none.
