MAYS TO SEEK TRACK RECORD Rex Mays To Attempt New Speed Record At Indianapolis ■I —ail I Indianapolis. May 23 <UR> Rex I Mays, the daredevil racing driver from Van Nuys. Cal., today awaited only the okay of his boss before Ihe roared otf for an attempt to shatter speed records held by his running mate and. indirectly, by his boss. The marks were set Saturday by Jimmy Snyder, his running mate, in qualifying trials for the annual j Indianapolis Soo-mile Memorial I Day race In a car engineered and designed by Art Spark a his boas, and the twin of the machine In which Maya will roll tomorrow. So today Sparks, the man behind the marks, worked steadily on Mays' machine to ready It for tomorrow's flight. The Saga of Sparks, from Eagle Rock. Cal., began nearly three years ago when he envisioned the twin cars. He took his plan to Joe Thome, wealthy sportsman race driver. Together they began work. Sparks made a blueprint drawing of every one of the more than 3.0<t0 parts in the machine he had designed After six months of thia he began construction and last year his oars appeared in Thorne's name at the Indianapolis speedway's Memorial day derby. They went out of the race near •he midway with valve spring 'trouble, but both had an average of about 131 miles an hour, nearly four miles an hour faster than the winning average. Sparks took .them back to California and began ! working again. This year he returned to the track with both cars renovated and 1 with some slight changes. Snyder was assigned to one of them and Mays to the other. Before qualifying trials both ' drivers Indicated how dangerous J they would be In the race by turni Ing the track at speeds on 130 miles an hour and over. Maya set a new unofficial track record of ! 131.68 miles an hour. T i On the first day of qualifying Snyder roared to a new qualifying mark of 130.133 miles an hour for the 10-mile stretch and during bls second lap set a new lap record of 130.767 miles an hour. Mays then tried to qualify. He averaged better than 130 miles an hour for two laps, but an oil spray developed and cut his speed to 128 miles an hour for the third lap. He came tn. Sparks discovered that the high speed Jiad Impaired the operation 'of the scavenger pump In the oil tank and forced the oil to fly out the breathers onto the righ rear | tire. He immediately began work to correct the fault ao Maye could try to crack Snyder's records.

May 23 (URF The Dkmne qulntupleta were up at their usual hour today, chatting excitedly about their trip Io the glty. the automobile, train and elevator rides and the king and queen they met In the parliament building at Toronto Although the trip home had kept them up to 9 p m. two hours past their bed time, they were still wide awake when they reached the Dafoe hospital, their home They regard all homes as "hoapit ala." although not In the accepted sense, and Yvonne remarked that they had been at the "kings hospital.** Every station on the homeward trip, crowds were out to see the five famous girls who never before had been out of their hospital. At Danforth, two Chinese boys about eight years old were among the spectators They had Inquired of several bystanders which car of the quintuplet special the girls were la. and getting no satisfactory answers, were sitting dejectedly on the platform fence when police inspector Frank Creasy saw them and directed them to the last car. There, the quintuplets were lined In front of a window, waving to admirers The two boys and five girls gaged at each other wide-eyed for a moment, then grinned and waved cheerfully to one another Dr. Allan Roy Dafoe, the girls' physician-guardian, said they had taken the trip "tn stride** "Everybody else Is tired out. though." he said "The trip was far more than I expected. The girls ran us ragged on the train." The meeting with King George and Queen Elisabeth In the drawing room of the lieutenant governor's quarters had been a rm-re happy one than waa even expected after Cecile broke the ice by Impulalvely throwing her arms about the queen's neck and giving her a smacking kiss

The other girls, not to be outdone. surrounded the queen and smothered her with kisses Cecile also embarrassed the doctor and her two nurses by toying with the belt buttons on the king's uniform and observing that the uniform was like “M'Cieu’ Ouellette'A** -one of the nursery guards Those, and Yvonne's first approach to the king, when she walked jtp. grasped bis hand and grinned at him. were the memorable Incidents of the royal couple's meeting with th* kfttg's most celebrated wards Otherwise, the trip was an unforgetahle one for the children. They had been a little fearful of the train at first, and could not sleep on the trip to'Toronto until it was slowed, but their worst fright was during the elevator ride In the parliament building They looked completely beunldered aud crowded close to their nurse, but did not say a word. ( As momentoes of the trip, they brought back blue reefer costa, presented to them by the queen aa gifts from the Princesses Elizabeth and Margaret Rose whose hands was cut. The royal car overturned when It swerved to pass the truck which was going In the opposite direction. Passersby rushed to the aid of the queen and her companions and forced oprn the jammed doors of the big closed car. The queen was taken out with out difficulty but was unable to climb tße slope. House painters working nearby solved the situation with one of their ladders which waa lowered enabling the queen mother and her companions to clamber to the roadway Queen Mary appeared only slightly shaken when she reached the road. She walked to the surgery. in the nearby home of a physician, and rested briefly after she had been examined. Meantime, a second royal car had been summoned by telephone and arrived to bear the queen mother home.
