San Diego, September 23, 1974 - (AP) - Pay 'N Pak, piloted by the national point leader, George Henley of Eatonville, set two world records and roared to her sixth victory of the hydroplane season in the San Diego Unlimited Regatta yesterday.

Miss Budweiser, driven by Dean Chenoweth, former two-time national champ was only 100 points behind Henley going into the final heat, but ran into engine trouble and had to settle for second place in the race on San Diego's Mission Bay.
