Previous ~ Return to Index ~ Next Landy gets a view of Soldier Field (Chicago) that most would prefer not to see, as he slides 150 feet on his head. Landy escaped with minor injuries. The crash happened when Jigger Sirois broke the left rear axle on Jack Sims' Chow-Chow Spl. and power on the right rear turned him left into Landy's path. The above photo, by Dick Lubbers, was suppose to be on the front page of the Chicago Tribune, unfortunately is got bumped for a bigger story, when Bob Keegan of the Chicago White Sox pitched a "No-Hitter" at Comiskey Park (August 20, 1957) Above photos by: Dick Lubbers Landy switched helmets from an old fashion plastic helmet to a state-of-the-art helmet (above) prior to the Chicago race.  The damage caused by the flip is visible in the photos below.
