New York Times -

AS 10-year-old Anthony Dombrowski Jr. soared high into the air aboard his dirt bike on ''Pee Wee'' night at the Milford Rider's Club Motocross Track, his father looked on calmly from behind a chain link fence that separates the track from relatives and spectators.

Suddenly, Anthony lost control of his bike in mid-air and went sprawling onto the hard, dry ground.

''Anthony's hurt, he's hurt,'' screamed 10-year-old Alisha Jasudowich, another rider.
