May 17. —Four cyl-' ihder motors and front wheel drive cans will lie seen in the Internat-I innal 500 mile race at the Indian- i apolis ( Motor Speedway, May 30. I 7. With Ute change in specifications demanding two man cars and; making possible motors as large ns 366 cubic inches pistom dis-plae.ment-approximately the same •dze as those used in popular pass-! 1 eager cars today — engineers are ' delving into the past for the basis ' Os their new power plants. It was in 1920 that the last four cylinder car was a definite threat ' in the International race. That 1 year Gaston Chevrolet, younger of:' the three racing brothers, rode home victor in a four cylinder ' Monroe Special, a concoction of, louis Chevrolet, the elder of the' three speeding kinsmen. It wag! Hie last victory of the four cylin-1 der type, which had been so popn-l lar in the earlier years of the sport. I In fact the following year—in 1921 — Chevrolet himself switched from a. four cylinder power plant to an eight cylinder car to win for ( rhe second consecutive time, the , great Indianapolis speed classic. , With his eight cylinder Fronte-|’ me Special, Tommy Milton, out- ( standing in the all time history of', racing, won the 500-mile race wear-1 ing the Chevrolet colors. It was two years later that Milton won his. second 500-mile race, being the I only dtiver so far to win the great race twice.

In the first 500-mile race in Hill, I Huy llurroun came home winner 'in u Marmon Special which was j pow< red with a six cylinder motor, lit Is the only victory the six cylIlinder power plants ever were able to chalk up in Indianapolis. For the following year Joe Duwson, In a National Special begun |a string of victories for four cylUnder cars thut lasted until 1921 I when Milton started the burst of wins for the eight cylinder type .which has remained the vogue ever 'since. This year, however, there will ; !i» fours, eights ami sixteens in the race and there Is a possibility ,11101 there may be a six or two. This means an entirely new assortment of sixes and shapes in powt r plants and bodies Is the coming race. Som* will be large, others small. But it has brought about an awakening of engineering ideas from which many startling results may be expected. The race cours' ever has been the laboratory of the automobile industry and as usual the Indianapolis Motor Speedway has pointed the way for increased develop-! ment on the track which is certain. as in the past, to find its way into the passenger cars of the future. The 500 mile race is one sport which not only thrills and enterI tains thousands of spectators euch .year, but contributes concrete Hums in the advancement of a great industry dealing with one of I the most important factors in the I progress of a nation—transportation. — o Sectional Track Meets Are Being Hold Today Indianapolis, May 17. — (U.R) — Fighting for a chance to compete in the state meet at Indianapolis ; next Saturday, 1.800 high school athletes participated in 15 section al track meets throughout Indiana today.
