TWO STARS ARE BIG STANDOUTS Chicago, May 26 U.R) Regardless of what happmis, It seems certain that !?>■ Sentman, the blackhaired Illinois hurdler and George Simpson, the flashy Ohio State sppnter, ar destined to be the best remembered of th 1 Big Ten track and Held athletes of 19.10. If any proof of this was Wteeded if came last Saturday when the loth annual western cons rente gain l s wete held at Evanston. Both Simpson and Sentman stood out in Ibis event like a Bobby Jones in a state amateur golf tournament and so completely dominated the comp tition that the words on almost all of the 9,000 tongues at the: ends of th • meet were: "How can they do it?" Simpson, running without starting blocks, disappointed all of Eddig Tolan s backers when he beat the great Michigan m gro in both the 220 and 100-yard dashes, running the 22b in 21 seconds flat. Try to find a half dozen men who can run that fast. Sentman. lithe and a master at judging hurdles won both the 220 and 120-yard hurdles, in easy fashion and t n to become high point man for the meet tinned in his ourth place in the broad jump for a total of 12 points, two more than Simpson. Simpson was disappointed. Recently his mark of 9.4 seconds was turned down as a 100-yard dash world’s record by the international rules body because h■ had used starting blocks. Saturday he discarded the blocks ami ran from toe holes in an effort to set new records. but failed. However, he hopes for a weather ' break a week from next Saturday which will allow him to set new records. He will |, ■ competing in the national intercollegiate races here and the competition he will have which includes Bracey.

Michigan won the 30th annual cons rence games with a total of, 51 points and Illinois was second I with I4U. Only two records were broke and the new marks do not I compare favorably with world s j i ecords. Army Barred In Big Ten Athletic Events Chicago, May 26.

SPEED TRY-OUTS LACK INTEREST Spedway, indlana.polls, May 26. (U.R) Since sonic 35.000 persons {gathered at the Indianapolis mo- : tor speedway Sunday and 30.mi1l I iof them bft without suing much j | more sluff than their own family i i hacks would do, revisions on esti- { I mated speeds for the 5110-tnile I event next Friday have been run i nlng downward to as low as 90 to ! ' 95 mil s an hour for the winn r. I Duly two drivels qualified their mounts yesterday, after most of Ithe crowil had left the grounds. They were Peter De Paolo in a 'Dues nberg and Tony Gulatto, the! ; ormer just a fraction under 100 > 1 miles an hour, and the latter but al ' fraction over it. There are now 21 drivers quali- ' tied, and all but half a dozen of the fastest cars have mad ' their runs. 1 |Th new. larger motors, two-man I eats, and changed specifications are { giving plenty of trouble, and it be- ■ 'gins to look as though few it any more than 3o cars will get awayl Hom the wire on Memorial Day.; Thru machines came in yesterday aft r it was obvious that trials { would fail if they finished. A few of the fast boys are left. I i however. Foremost among these; to capture popular fancy are the two Mserati’s from Italy, one a 16 and th* other an eight. Daring the dull hours yesterday when nothing else was happening, a few | drivers were warming up their vehicles, and the Maserati's dr w tretn, udons interest. They are idtiven by Borzaccliini and Cucini atto. De Palo literally scattered one of his Duesenb rgs all over the track yesterday morning when the bal-' ance wh el came off. and he qualified in one borrowed from Bill Cummings, driving for De Paolo. It was doubtful if De Paolos original mount would be r paired in time to qualify by Wednesday. One of the few remaining driv- | ers figm d as a sure qualifier out {of the original 45 entries in Egbert I "Babe" Stapp in a Du senberg. Several entries haven't yet appeared at th* speedway garage,' and at this late hour it is figured tiny won't a.pear.

May 26 When tile field of sta ters moves away from he pole in the Hying dash tor the 509-mile race for SIOO,OOO at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway next Friday, the drivers will be under the jurisdiction of a new set of signal flags. being used for the first time. Since the inception of the great peed sport, the red flag always has been tile starting signal. There is no explanation for tile strange usage of this color which all America has lu-en taught to mean danger , But for many years it lias been the, i "go ahead" sign to automobile racI ing drivers. , This year the go sign will be ! green just as it is on the everyday highway. And red will mean ‘‘stop —the race is halted". I For many years the green flag has denoted to speedway contestants 'that they were on their last lap—- ' only one mere lap to have the white and black checkered flag waved ' over them to denote the finish of ■ t lie race. In tlie coming race —and the races ' to follow, a kings blue flag will take I the place of the green tlag to- de- { note that the drivers have to wheel ' only one more lap of the course co complete the racing distance. Yellow will mean caution this |y-*ar as it ha- in the past. But the black flag with the white center. I used in the past to advise a slower , (Liver to move over to permit a faster competitor to pass is changed {this year to orange and navy with i a blue circular center. The checkerI ed flag remains the same emblem of , victory and finish. "Boy it'll seem funny to get that | green flag in the first lap and not I want to call it quits the next time I around”, laughs Phil "Red" Shafer. iiuxom humorist of the speedway I I gasoline alley. , Impressive physical preparations have been under way by b j't drivers and riding mechanics z to pre pare their bodies as well as their cars for the gruelling speed run next Friday. Every mechanic, driver, relief I driver and relief mechanic must pay < an exhaustive medical examinI ation to prove their fitness to compete in the contest. The hospital in the infield of the track, equipped to care for every possible emergency case, in charge of competent specialists has been a busy spot these days with drivers and mechanics undergoing the examinations. X-ray machines used to photog.aph men in other years are being used to photograph vital Mechani cal parts of the car this year. Equipment of the General Elector Company has been in daily use by drivers anxious to discover flaws in important working paits of their cars. Unusually successful result? have been obtained. <o— At Least One A man cannot be said to succeed in tills life who does not satisfy one ' friend.—Thoreau.
