Notes: Stevens was at Bakersfield for the March Meet. It was a sixteen-car field, and in the first round, he ran 7.68/191.89 to defeat Mark Pieri's 7.85/196. Norm Wilcox fouled against him in round two, so he eased to a 10.13/95.74 to advance. But in the semifinal, he fouled against eventual winner Walt Rhoades in the "Gas House Gang" car. The following week (March 9), he was at OCIR for an eight-car show. His 7.77/193.54 (Top Speed) qualified #3.Another 7.77/181.08 in the opening round beat Jim Bunker, and in the semifinal, a 7.79/192.70 beat Bob Muravez driving the "Freight Train. He faced Mike Snively in the final, and Walt's 7.81/191.88 got the victory over Snively's 7.98. His next stop was at Riverside for the HRM Championships. This was an eight-car show, and he failed to break into the 7.77 "bump."

Notes: Hal set Low ET in qualifying #1 with a 7.76/191.66 at an eight-car event at OCIR on March 9. A first-round 7.83/192.30 lost to Mike Snively's 7.79/185. Another eight-car Top Gas race was held at OCIR on May 10. Unfortunately, Branin's best of 7.89 failed to qualify. Hal was at Sacramento on September 14 for the NHRA Division Seven race. His 7.96 in the opening round beat the "Gas Company," but he lost to eventual winner Jack Jones in the semi-final.
