Low Putt Tourney Seventeen lady golfers played a “low putt” tournament Tues-
day morning at Windy Hill Country Club. Winners for the
day were, Roberta McCormick
—13, Ruth Greeve—15, Jean
Moore—17, and in the beginning group, Mildred Reeves. A short business meeting was
followed by an impromptu ex-
ercise class designed to improve the figure. The instructor was the French girl, Lynda, who demonstrated quite effectively. The third lesson in the beginners series will be held next Tuesday, and the regular golfers will play a “pro-am” match. If the weather is bad come out anyway as there is always a card game and lots of laughs!
ville. Schmitt, a son of Mr. and Mrs. Bernard Schmitt, played his sophomore year under coach Jim Richards at Glasgow, Ky.

Graham Hill Smacks Wall
INDIANAPOLIS UPI _ Defending champion Graham Hill of England escaped injury Wednesday when his car slid into the wall at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway during practice for this year’s 500-mile Memorial Day race. Hill lost control as he applied the brakes going into the northeast turn. The car slid 870 feet, spun halfway around and brushed the outside retaining wall before going to rest in the infield. Some paint was scraped from the car’s nose cone but there was no other damage. National driving champion Mario Andretti, who began practice only Tuesday, turned in the fastest lap since the track opened for practice with a clocking of 165.441 miles per
hour.
Parnelli Jones, another former “500” winner, had a lap of 161.522 mph in Andy Granatelli’s controversial turbine-pow-ered car and Joe Leonard was clocked at 161.667 in another of the .day’s best early performances. '
more than $150,000 in prize money to one of the 33 entrants in the holiday classic. In addition, the winner will be presented the famed Bprg-Waxner trophy, the official award for the past 31 years. The 1966 winner, Graham Hill, collected $156,297 for his first “500” victory. This year’s winner could take home more, depending on the number of laps h« wans. The last three winners, in fact, have averaged nearly $159,000 in prize money. Appropriately, the sterling silver trophy awarded the winner is in the big money class in its own right: The 80-pound Borg-Warner trophy is insured for $52,000. The trophy is more familiar to auto racing fans, however, for the bas-relief head productions it bears of the 42 drivers who have won the race since the first event in 1911. The 5V2-foot-high trophy still has room for 20 more winners. Presentation of the trophy has become one of the highlights of the post-race ceremonies. Each year the trophy Is displayed at trackside during the race and then as the winning car moves into its final two laps the Borg-Warner representative, the “500” queen and the trophy-bearer move into the “Victory Lane” area next to the track. When the winning car pulls into “Victory Lane,” the trophy is placed on the car behind the driver as the queen congratulates the winner. For 13 years, from 1947 through 1959, the trophy was presented by Hollywood stars, including Carole Landis, Linda Darnell, Loretta Young, Arlene Dahl, Virginia Mayo and Dinah
Shore.
Then, in 1960, it was decided to make the presentatiem more at an all-Indiana event. Since that time, the trophy has been presented by the Indiana beauty who has been elected to serve as queen of the “500” Festival. This year, Janice Louise Cruse, a 20-year-old junior at Indiana State University, Terre Haute, will have the honor. » After ths end of the racing
