Duesenhercv Brothers —Fred and Angie—long as™ riated with the sneeil snort have built three winners of Tndiananolis races. In 1924 they saw the .late Joe Boyer come home a winner u a car that L L. Cornrn Tndlanannita driver had started iti the contest. Th- - year the Duesenherg victory was repealed when Peter DePanlo, nephew of Ralph DePnlma, came romtv •ng sc r oss the finish wire at the end of 500-miles at an average cf ini 13 mi’es in hour. a record which sMR stands. liqt which is threatened by the fast cars cf th’s season. Last year George Senders won in a Duesenberg. Racing lore is rep’ete with the prowess of the Duesenberg Brothers is designers and builders of racing mounts, but the same tradition is enmnied with details cf how the famous brothers have put the f'nieb'ng touches on their creations at the verv startin gline of many races, seconds before the start. For years they hive not had their cars ready, or even running, until the last minute. But. with ail these handicaps their colors have flown ti victory on every track in the United States and in Europe, the late Jimmy Murphy being the only American driver in an American built car to win the French Grand Prix. That was in 1921 when he was n star of the Duesenberg outfit. But this year it seems all different, the cars already are ready and will 1 he taken to the track next week for a warming up.

SHARKEY ISSUES CHALLENGE TODAY New Yolk. \hi> 1 (INS) - Emboldeni ed ity his master stioke in knocking i Jack Delaney cut of the heavyweight j picture in exactly one minute and 13 ■ se»v iidfl. Jack Sharkey today Issued u I challenge to Jack Dempsey for n reI turn match and labeled the Inpendlug I title match bot'ween Gene Tunney and I Tom Heeney ns an exhibition b< tween j ‘two second luteis.” Bv Davis J. Walsh (I. N. S. Sport Editor) New York, May I— Tex Rickard, the well known Fauliflower cnltnrNt, f und himself this naming, which is one of tiie things he can guarantee to da almost daily, with'exactly one more peach in his garden of Madison Square than the sowing of seeds for the heav\weight harvest account f.r. It all cameWif the mistaken idea that lie was planting a couple 'of lemons last night, whereas only one of them ran true to catalogue The other bloomed not in the scur hue of the lemon but In the rich full tints of a fruit inalienably associated with all that is good; a peach, no less. In exactly one minute and thirteen seconds of play. Jack Sharkey knocked Jack Delaney right out last night while a crowded house went berserk. Always a contrai y cuss, he picked a mest unfortunate moment for this exhibition of mastery. . For be it known by all these present that tomato Heeney. the prominent human, being, already has been declared in on that championship dividend with Tunney in July and here we*hav" this Sharkey guy doing in less than a round what Ileenev failed to do in fifteen. Tomato, in fact, didn't even have Delaney on the floor or near it. unless, you count the soles of his feet. Sharkey not only had him there three times in the first minute but kept him there the last time down. Had Sharkey been an obliging s rt lie’would have turned in tlie perforj mance two months ago and then ail of 1 professor Rickard’s plans would have ! gone through strictly according to l script. But he w. didn't or couldn't, or itt least didn't so the professor go: veiy smatt and named Heeney as, the challenger before further expose could alter the situation. Upon which ! the professor found no further reason f.r being smart and went right ahead matching Sharkey and Delaney just for the sake of filling an open date and the till in the Ixix office. Delaney proved to be the grasping miser of pngltsm. He t.ok everything and gave nothing. He may have struck a blow during tlie minute and thirteen seconds of action but 1 doubt if he dif£ so in anger. The other guy. by comparison, was more like the Sharkey of t!uearly rounds of the Dempsey fight than the ring montebank who clowned thiaugii the winter seaacn. He went after Delaney from the bell, throwing right hands with abandon. The .-■> rallied rapier had just assumed an expression meant to imply, “you can't scare me with those kind." when one of them clipped him behind th" ear. At that it didn’t scire him: it almost killed hint. Just to show he wnsii t butt, lie desduined a count tad came right ui® for more, he got it. Sharkey rushed to the attack again, swinging lefts and rights to Delaney's hc.uUwithout return. Steady for a nic merit he set a right cross, it nipped Delaney's jaw and would
