O - —-0 Today'iSport Parade 1 By Jack Cuddy 1 (Reg. U. 8. Pat. Off.) I •o — O New York. Aug 13 (CPIThrough an Ironical whim of the sports fates, the bitterest feud in history of top-speed automobile racing will be fought out Sunday at Goshen, N. Y„ over the same track that has become a rhrlne for hoss-and-buggy competition. . .Mauri Rose of South Bend. Ind winner of the 500-mOa Indi- . unapolis classic on Memorial day will face for the first time "over a distance" Bill Holland of Bridge port, Conn., the vengeful guy who claims that Rose tricked him out of first place on the Indiana speedway. Aside from the glory of wpining ■ the Indianapolis classic. Novice Holland knows that finishing second deprived him of about |75.()<«» that he might have earned from various sources as winner of the big race. And Holland is positive that he would have won at Indianapolis, had hix veteran garage mate. Rose, observed the "slow down" signal when Holland was leading, with only eight laps to go. Both their cars were owned by Lou Moora of Pasadena. Calif. Holland claims I that tiieir "slow down" signal from their pit meant that they had the race In the bag and that they should take it easy for the remaining eight laps, rather than risk last minute mishaps to their machines. Rose claimed he did not see the pit signal. The wily j veteran of Indianapolis classics forged ahead and won the race. They will fight it out. along with 16 other top drivers. Sunday over the same kite-shaped track where Hoot Mon won the Hambletonian (lassie of the trotting world a week ago today. For races among hay-burners like Hoot Mon and other celebrities of the harnesx-and sulky sphere, the Good Time mile track at Goshen > approaches perfection; but for the roaring, skidding gas chariots, the I track is ultra-dangerous because I of its sharp angles and Its lack of "bank " Handsome young Jim Frattone of Philadelphia, the former army air hero who la promoting the race In association with William H. Cane owner of the track—said today. “we have warned both Holland and Rose that any unethically dangerous tactics during tbe 100-

mile race may dbqnalify either or both drivers. And «e have emphasized fur thru, that this con I lest lx but one of eight or nine < to be staged this year.
