    My father, Raymond "Red" Boscher, Jr., raced midgets in the late 40s, early 50s in the Chicago-based United Auto Racing Association (UARA).  I'm searching for the whereabouts of the following cars:  #55 yellow/blue midget owend by Charlie Lippencott (former AA pilot); #5 black/red/white midget owned by Ulrich Brothers and #24 blue/white midget owned by Bender Brothers and sponsored by Collignon Nash, Des Plaines, IL.  All were Ford V8-60 powered.  Cars were raced at the following tracks - Soldier Field, Chicago; Peotone, IL, Farigrounds; Kankakee, IL, Fairgrounds; Gill Stadium, Chicago: Hanson Park, Chicago; Streator, IL; DePere, WI
