FURTHER TIME TRIALS FOR MOTOR CLASSIC SHOW OTHER CARS POSSESS NECESSARY SPEED
SECOND SERIES OF RACE TESTS ATTRACTS FANS Sensational Speed Promised as Late Cars Qualify for Monday Dash. OTHER SPEEDWAY NEWS Today was another qualifying day for the drivers entered In the $70,000 500-mile drive at the Indianapolis Speedway nest Monday and every pilot who had his car dolled up so that it even looked like It 'wanted' to rnn, in other words, had a motor and four Xvheels hooked together in some manner, was slated "to do the required four laps at an average speed of eighty miles per hour or better. Some of the cars entered arrived only yesterday, others have been here for some time, but have been on the track onlv once or twice, but it is getting late in the dav and the drivers were going to take the official test this afternoon in an effort to break away from last minute worries. Their idea is to qualify first, even if they have to do it on “one lung.” then let ■she mechanics do the worrying about the misses and knocks afterward. GLOOM STUFF NOT NOTICEABLE. However, not many of the pilots were going to have to try qualifying with crippled cars. Although yesterday was tb'e first time out for some of them, the cars apted up like real autos should and there were no gloom flags on any of the garage doors. Every driver firmly believes he has ’“the” speed wagon and those who were to qualify today figured on showing Ralph DePalma that he isn’t the only pebble on the ninety-nine-miies-per beach. Tommv Milton, world’s speed king, anti his Duesenbt-rg mechanics the clock late last night, along with JimmyMurphy and his crew, but when they leix the speedway their cars were ready for the grind and they were doped to stir things up a bit today.

final flay for cars to qualify and chariots failing to show today certainly will perform tomorrow. PEUGEOT TEAM STILE PUZZLE. Everybody is talking. predicting, worrying and guessing about the Peugeot cars to be piloted by Wilcox. Goux and Beillot. It has been ramored all along that these drivers were holding little practice sessions all their own early in the morning and late in the evening, but a few inquisitive raiiblrds who have visited the speedway early and staved until late for the last few days say this talk Is all bunk and reports have it that “Howdy’* and his teammates are a few notches up the stump. The crowd was ready to turn away from the Peugeot team today In the event that they did not call for the qualifying flag. Wilcox, Goux aud Bolllot have worked a whole lot and slept but a littie for the last few days In an effort to get in shape for today’s trials. John Boling and bis Richards Special made their debut yesterday. John started off by turning laps In the neighborhood of 1:40, and showing plenty of nerve on the turns. He'll be watched closely on the big day. Roscoe Sarles. In a Monroe, Eddie O’Donnel in a Duesenberg and Boling In Ms Richards treated the raiiblrds to a few laps of ‘'personal feelings” racing yesterday. Ralph Mulford turned his motor over for the first time since he reached the speedway. Ralph has had his ups and downs, bnt he smiled and said “we re ready" after locking his garage door late in the evening. Willie Haupt expected to get his Meteor on the oval today and he had a feeling that he might be able to' check In for dim: nations. The added $20,000 lap prize purse give* anew angle to the bets being wagered on the 500 mile race. “Every lap's a race,” Is the password and Ralph DePalma rules the favorite in the betting. Bets are being plnced that the famous Italian pilot will tuke down more of the lap prize money—to be awarded on the basis of SIOO for each lap a driver wins—than any other driver in the race. That Ralph does not finish Is another bet going the rounds. Bets that the seven Monroe and Fronteuac creations of Louis Chevrolet will place higher at the finish than the Ballot and Peugeots combined are being made. There la a wide variety of odds. Kurt Hitke and Tom Alley were around the garages yesterday, but they didn't look natural. Kurt and Tom were to drive the T. N. T. and Kenworthy cars, respectively, but have been forced to withdraw their names from the entry list because of delayed plans. Ralph DePalma and his several right hand bowers tore down everything but the seat upholstering on the fast Ballot yesterday. Traveling at the mere rute of 99 per cent isn't fast enough for the popular pilot. Eddie Hearne, driver of one of the Duesenberg cars in the 500-mile race j Monday, was the leader of all the drivers last year on a basis of points won for the principal track and roads of the 1913 season. On the basis of ten points per mile fer the first place, eight points for second, six for third, four for fourth and two for fifth, Hearne Is the official leader with 8,M50 points Roscoe Sarles is second with 7,288, and Howard Wilcox third with 8.200. Joe Boyer Is fourth with 4,730, and Tommy Milton fifth with 4,&5. President VanZandt of the Duesenberg Automobile and Motors Company, Inc., war. given a wild ride around the speed- ! way yesterday in a Dnesenherg race car bv^Eddie Hearne. The dockers got the time at a little more than 100 miles an hour, a wholly unofficial test. SeTen cars will have the Duesenberg motor as their source of power. The Duesennberg motor will be manufactured In Indianapolis by the Duesenberg Automobile ana Motors Company, Inc., a recent Industrial acquisition. Besides the four Duesenberg cars, the Revere, the Mulford Special end the. Meteor are equipped with the Duesenberg “Etght-in-•-Row” motor. •Tack Scales and Jean Porporato, Gre- j golre pilots, didn't have a thing to do j yesterday but sit around and wait for ; tires. They were fixed up late In the, evening and stood ready for trial today. Plans for the Gregoire motor* were started before the war and during the
I THEY’RE COMING TOMORROW
GEORGES CARPENTIER AND MANAGER DESCAMPS.
Indianapolis boxing fans and fans in other lines of sports will get their first glimpse of Georges Carpentier, French idol of the ring, tomorrow evening, when Jack Curley, American promotor, will bring the Carpentier party to the city for an exhibition at the Elks’ athletic carnival at the Coliseum, state fair grounds. With Carpentier will be his manager. Francois Descamps, who has learned Y'ankee ways when it comes to piling up wealth for his boxer. Others in the party will be Carpentier’s sparring partners and probably
big struggle the type was used very successfully In submarines. The motors are of entirely different design from anything that has been seen at the speedway and the railbirds seem to like them. Tommy Milton will 'torn- the track In an exhibition drive in his sixteen-cyl-inder Duesenberg at 3:30-tomorrow afternoon. The speed king will not lie a hie to kick the throttle open on the local track, which would mean some thing like 157 miles per b<>ur. but bpromises to give the fan* s real tre.u. Milton took the car around at a 150 mile paee the day It arrived. Since, their wonderful qualifying performance, the Monroe and Frontttiac cars are becoming more popular with the fans every day. Some say it's up to Lonle to orlng the victory to au American car. ' Big League Stuff He Is birring ’em In pairs now. Babe Until crashed two homers against the Red Sox at Boston yes- 1 terday and aided the Yankee victory. The Babe now has ten circuit clouts to ! his credit. The Giants played listless ball and lost a twin bill to Boston. Cruise hit a bonier In the second game. The Phillies borrowed the Dodgers' I traveling uniforms because their own did not arrive and whipped, Bobby's boys in eleven innings. Paulette and K. Miller manufactured the winning run •T. Collins hit a homer against the A's at Philadelphia, the nineteenth made at Shibe park in eleven days. The U bite Sox won easily. Hornsby, also catching the home run fever, banged out a four-ply swat with two men on bases, which contributed somewhat to the Card's victory over Cincinnati. Doc Johnston tripled with a man on and acored himself for the only two runa that Cleveland made la an exhibition game with the Pirates. Pittsburg won, 4 to 2. The Toledo Rail Lights, semi-pro, bent the Chicago Cuba, 5 to 2.

1,000 ATHLETES IN TRACK MEET Olympic Talent Expected to Show at Philly. PHILADELPHIA, May 2&—Blue ribbon performers of thirty colleges were here today to bid for the American intercollegiate championship and places on t’ncle Sam’s Olympic team. More than 1,000 trained sharks of the eastern tracks and five prides of California were to battle through the trial and qualifying heats today for a chance at the big glory tomorrow. Gustavua T. Kirby, president of she American Olympic committee; Justice Rartow S. Weeks and Frederick Rubien, ether members of the committee, were here on the first scout of the seasou after buds that might sprout today for the big games in Antwerp. After a feverish night with long pencils. the donesters came out with the figures showing Cornell, big winner tn other years, wouldn’t run better than third and the Californians might be close behind Pennsylvania, a five to four favorite for the corner on points. Pennsylvania's strength is centered in the mile, the half, the quarter, the jumps and the pole vault. California looks good in the broad jump, the pole vault, the hammer throw and the sprints. Cornell is especially strong in the hurdles and the half mile, while Princeton looks good for a second or a third in most any of the events. Crowds are to adjourn from Franklin field after the track and field program to the banks of tlie Schuylkill for the first of the American Racing association’s two-day show. The Childs’ cup race was the only event of Importance scheduled for this afternoon. It brought together Pennsylvania, the present cup holder; Princeton, Columbia and the Navy.

TRIBE RETURNS FOR LONG STAY IN HOME YARD Disastrous Road Trip Soften## Some by Even Break With Leaders. SAINTS POUND ROGGE Riding the rattlers last night and today, the Indians will steam into their home town this evening, back for a long stretch of games that will make or breali them in the 1020 A. A. race. The Hoosiers met with all kinds of setbacks Ini the trip around the entire circuit, but the run of defeats was tempered to some extent by their record ngainst the leading Saints, with whom tjjey closed yesterday. Getting an eVen break out of a series of four games with Mike Kelley’s sluggers is no light achievement and indicates to some extent that the club has talent, despite the weakness in the pitching staff. COLONELS HERE FOP. BIG SERIES. Opening at Washington park with the Louisville Colonels tomorrow the Tribe will remain on the local lot until June 24, in which time every team in the league will be taken on. The Colonel series calls for one game Saturday and double-headers both Sunday and Monday. Loyal fans are sticking with, the club under the belief that it will start up the ladder shortly. The Tribe has played only seven games at home since the season opened, so the club therefore is looking forward to the extended stretch o* games at Washington park for the expected victories that will place it up in the race. In the wlndnp contest at St. Paul yesterday the Saints downed the Hoosiers, 8 to 2, landing on Clint Rogge’s slant* for plenty of hits and runs. His support was not of the best, but even with perfect backing lie wouid have lost because (he Saints hit quite lustily. Manager Kelley used Browne against the Indians and the youth hurel a-fairly strong brand of ball. A* usual the Tribesmen grabbed the lead, but in the Third inning the game practically was lost when the Saint* came through with a rails that produced four markers, two of the runs resulting when Elmer Miller blasted a circuit smash with one man on. O’HARA PILES IF BINGLES. Ollie O’Mara checked up three more hits for himself and was the Hoosier star. It was a hig batting series for Oiiie as well as Berghammer, the Saint second baseman. Kelley’s lineup was somev.-hat makeshift, due to suspensions of Infieldcr ItoonS and Outfielders Duncan and Hass.
