SELECT STUTZ TO PACE SPEED FIELD MONDAY Officials Name Local Race Designer to Send 500-Mile Cars on Way. TIME SPINS WEDNESDAY Officials of the Indianapolis Motor speedway today named Harry O. Stuts as pacemaker for the 300-mile speed grind on the Speedway oval next Monday. Sluts is president of the C. S. Motor Company, and a few years back waa rated as one of the greatest designers of rating cars In the country. In the early days of racing the whitecoated Stuts speed wagons were always strong contenders In races throughout the United State*. Now Harry Stuts Is creeping back Into the speed game, to the extent of grooming a speedy Stuts roadster for the Baca-setting act. Heretofore the pace has been In the neighborhood of eighty miles per, but this trip Stuti says ho is going to have plenty of stuff under his foot, and that he will make the boys hustle right along to keep up with him. On the stroke of ton and with resounding of the starting bomb, Stuts will jump out in front of the thundering race cars and start the Initial whirl of the long grind. He will flash across the wire at the end of the first lap at a upeed of eighty miles an hour or better and then pnll off onto the ••apron" and loaf around for another lap. while the flower of two continents ro.l on In a terrific burst of speed for the honor of winning the first *l<X> lap prise. The position of pace-maker Is much sought after by celebrities of the sporting world, as It is offered each year to someone who has won achievement In the advancement of the automobile industry. Last year Itsrney Oldfield, the veteran of all speed kings, set the pace In a Marmon roadster. Harry Stutx designed the raelng cars which brought glory and gold to Indir.napolis and developed the great pilot, Eddie It token hacker, who afterwards drove for General Pershing In the early days of the A. E. K.. and then became America's greatest aca In the World Wnr. WOOD TO JUDGE RACE. Gar Wood, who holds the world's record for motor speed boats, a title won when he captured the great Harmsworth trophy in England last year, will be one of the judges of the Speedway race this year. Wood's recent aehievement in the speed boat game was driving a cruiser from Miami. Fla., to New York, several minutes faster than the Seaboard Airline’s fastest passenger train. • Our Own Eddie" Edeubtirn. who graduated from the ranks of Indianapolis newspsperdom to carry the light Into the wilderness of Detroit, wheA he now edits the motor page for the Detroit News, arrived at the track yesterday as the ofTleial representative of tho American Automobile Association. Eddie announced that brake tests on all entries would he held Saturday morning at 9:30 sharp. He will also be on the jobb tomorrow officially checking the time of the drivers lu tho qualification trials. The “Three A.s" could jot have selected a better man for their work. Eddie began absorbing race dore when Barney Oldfield was adding to his fame with the old Green Dragon, and he la a regular encyclopaedia of information on all things pertaining to racing. Another Indianapolis boy was added to the lists of motor knights errant for the big classic, yesterday, when Ora F. Haibe was selected as relief driver for the Sunbeams and Talbot-Darracq team. Haibe learned the racing game under that master Johnny Altkvn nt National fame back In 1909, "10 and ’ll. As mechanic, pitman and relief driver he as thoroughly schooled. He has been driving every since. In 1910 he took down eighth money with an Oerwego and he finished the long grind In a special Hudson in 1919 t lie knows the track like a book and now that his opportunity hss come as understudy for Dario Rests, Rene Thomas or Andre BolUot. he Is expected to more than unset his golden chance. Haibe is an American rltiaen. born and reared In Indianapolis, nut his parents Were French. His father was brought to the this country from France by D. W. Marmon. founder of Nordyke A- Marmon years ago. Haibe la 31 years of age and married. THEY'LI. OPEN 'EM UP TOMORROW. The official time trials for the big grind will open tomorrow afternoon at 1 o’clock. The time for qualifying will extend through to Saturday afternoon, but the drivers are always anxious to get the job off their hands, and all those who have ihclr eara In shape will be out burning up the bricks tomorrow. In order to qualify for the big race, tbe drivers must send their mounts around the track for four laps at tn average of eighty miles per hour. Each pilot will be given three chances to qualify at this speed, but when a driver once makes the required speed be does not get another chance to better the mark. The car qualifying at the highest rate of speed gets the pole for the first lap, the car traveling second best gets sec end place, and so on down the line.

The rail birds -who itayed around tbs track late yesterday afternoon got their first j>aep at the new Duesenberg racers, when Eddie Miller and Joe Boyer came out for a few turns in Joe's job. It was the first time the car took gas, and the motor was not winding any too well, but the old “Dueate noise" was there, and it looks as though the cars will be in there a wee bit better than last year's Duelenberg team. Boseoe Sarle* had his old Pnwenberg out for a few fast laps and did not hare a lot of worry on his mind when he backed Into bis garage. Ralph DeFalma was “off again, on again" all through the afternoon In his blonde Ballot. The boat is talking like a phonograph, but Ralph, who is famous for hia detail stuff, never lets his mechanics stand around and look wise when he slides off the track. Jack Soles was ont In Percy Ford's Chicago-Frontenac and he had a lot of fun with Rene Thomas. The Frontenac just simply got up and cooked the bricks when Jack kicked it. and Rene was having a rather tough time keeping close to him. Bennie nill had his car back together again yesterday, and cut loose with a few smiles. Ben said he would be out today and show the boys some new speed. Joe Thomas kicked the gas pedal on his Bine Junior Special down to the floor boards yesterday, and clamped it there, but the thrill of sensational speed was not for him. The Juniors bare not shown any too much stuff so far. bnt the n ecbanice are working their heads off on the smart little Jobs, and the old air o? confidence still floats around the Junior shed. LAP PRIZE DRAW THURSDAY The lap prixe fund workers are winding up the collection of the $20,000 fund from •which sl<X) lap prises are given to the leaders of each lap of the 500-mile race.

TRIBE PLAYERS ENCOURAGED BY PETTY RETURN Hard-Working Indians Are Cheered by News of Purchase of Southpaw. CAVET AGAIN DELIVERS KANSAS CITY, May 24—Members of the Indians were doubly Joyful today as they prepared to battle the K. C. Blues in the second game of the series. Reason fur the Tribe being in good spirits was the big 10 to 3 victory they scored over the Blues yesterday and announcement last night that Pitcher Jess Petty had been purchased from the Cleveland Americans. The coming of Petty Is quite a bracer for the Indians, because all the team members are wildly excited over their pennant prospects, and they are firmly convinced that a bolstered pitching staff will put them in line to cop tWte A. A. bunting. Petty was wita tire Indians last season as a farmed out player from Cleveland, but this time he comes to tue Hoosiers as their property, for Owner Smith paid out a neat sum for hie out right purchase, lie Is a clever southpaw aad doubtless will turn }u many victories with a young, fast club like the Indians behind him. Mr. Pug Cavet—ambled out on the mound here yesterday and pitched another one of his airtight games, making eight victories out of nine starts for him this season. He hud the Blue sluggers well-tamed and hurled effectively, while his mates pounded three K. (’. twirlers hard, lialpn Shiuners led the attack with a triple, two doubles aud a single. The Hoosiers gave Cavet perfect support in the field, lu addition to tfieir great slugging, sud the old boy breezed home an easv winner. Asa result of the Tribe victory yes terday the Hendrlcksmen were tied with the Millers for the At erican Association lead today. late Bartlett was slated to take the mound this afternoon in an effort to keep the Tribesmen on top and he was feeling fairly fit for the job. Manager Hendricks was all smtles when Owner Smith announced the completion of the Petty deal and the Tribe chief slept without being bothered by a pitching nightmare last Dight. The coming of Petty gives him two southpaws, and he believes that if he can laud one more effective right-hander he will be able to keep the Indians out in front.

Carpentier loked sallow, acted nervous and lacked the ginger and geniality that marked i)is first visit to America when he landed recently to start training for Dempsey. This was noticeable. Monday afternoon, however, he showed marked Improvement in appearance when he stripped for action and did forty-five minutes of fast, hard work, with the scribes giving him the north' and south. Aud every one came away satisfied that Georges is in mighty good shape after all. He feels good, he says, and he certainly looks better, which upholds Manager Descampa’ assertion that all he needed was a few days’ rest to rid himself of his sea legs and sea stomach. Today, with the gates locked agninst every one, the Frenchman got down to his training tricks in earnest for the first time. He was scheduled to box a few rounds with both Journee and Marcot, pi .eh tho bag, wrestle the sundbag, pull the weights and skip the rope. He will work with these two partners for a few da/s before <atlling ou big Joe Jeanette and Italian Joe Cans. The real business <>r sparring will commence when Jeanette gets into camp.

Rex fouled out, making two down and tiro runs needed to tie and*, three to win. i At this potnt Coach Scholler of Wabash sent in Kessler, a right handed hitter, to bat for Gullett, who -hits from the left side of the plate. Southpaw Faust shot two fast strikes over on Kessler, who did not move his bat off his shoulder. Then Faust wound up and so did Kessler. The Wabash pinch hitter planted his spikes in the earth and swung his mightiest. He connected and rattled the ball off the left field fence and, whiie the I. U. left fielder and center fielder were making desperate efforts to retrieve the bounding pellet, Sehanlaub,! Grater and Kessler romped home. | The rooters swarmed on the field, hoisted Kessler to their shoulders and sturted a parade. The celebration developed into a shirt tail street pageant and wountl up with a pep session at the Strand theater, where a nutnbel of the Wabash players were called on for speeches. Today there wasn't any college—the Wabash students declaring time out for further celebration. Lon Goidsberry hurled effectively for the Scarlet, a little shaky support giving Indiana frequent openings for scoring. The Crimson did not locate Goldie’s slants until the sixth inning. Wabash got eleven hits off Walker and Faust. Catcher Minton put up a fine article of ball for Indiana, and Ehlert also held up Goidsberry well for Wabash. A scout of the Philadelphia Athletics was at the game, according to bleacher i reports, and he was said to be looking ] over a coupje of Indiana men and Schan- j laub of Wabash, who is developing into a j player of big league type. Sehanlaub is j a junior at Wabash, however, and is not j considering any league baseball until he. has completed his college course. Wabash has three more game* this j playing Purdue here Wednesday 1 and Butler at Indianapolis Friday aud Saturday.

Problems of- - By-Product Coking Business The people of Indianapolis have a vital Interest in the By-Product Coking industry. For twelve years it was possible for Indianapolis to obtain gas at a rate of 60 cents or less because this company was able to produce it as a by-product in the operation of its coke ovens. During those years much gas produced by other and more expensive processes was supplied to the consumeU, but the company was able to stand the losses on such business because of its success In operating its by-product coke-ovens. From July 1, 1909 (when the competing company was obliged to meet the price established by this company in April of that year) to May 1, IJL.I, t a people of Indianapolis purchased about 30,000,000,000 cubic feet of gas. The saving secured for this community from the operation of by-product coke ovens has therefore been notable. When this company was organized it was freely predicted by gas experts in all parts of the country that it was doomed to failure, and even some of the best friends of the movement In this city were doubtful about the possibility of success of '6O-cent gas. THE SUCCESS OF THE ENTERPRISE WAS DUE SOLELY TO THE FACT THAT THE COMPANY CONSTRUCTED BY-PROD-UCT COKE OVENS AND CONDUCTED A HIGHLY COMPETITIVE INDUSTRIAL BUSINESS, IN addition to distributing gas to the people of Indianapolis. In 1920, out of every dollar of revenue obtained by the company, eighty cents was derived from this large competitive business for every twenty cents obtained from the sale of gas. v All through the war and during the period of Inflated prices following it, when prices of all other commodities were rapidly advancing and when the rates of all other gas companies In the world were increased, it was possible to keep the rate here at 60 cents, so that Indianapolis—which had had the lowest gas rate in Amersca since 1909 —came to have the lowest rate In the world. General business conditions having cut off tho demand for all products of by-product coke ovens, this company found it impossible to obtain sufficient revenue from its general business, and was obliged-to apply for an emergency increase in the rate for gas. AYe want it to be temporary, and we hope It will be temporary.. to eJtist under the old rate depends on a revival of the byproduct coking industry. Therefore, we say, the people of Indianapolis have a vital Interest in that industry. This means that they must te deeply interested in the problems confronting it. It is our purpose to present to the public a number of brief statement* on the problems of this industry. Some are inherent in the industry at all times. Others have been raised by the circumstances of recent times. We invite your careful consideration to cur explanations of some of the phases of an important chemical industry which contributes greatly to the welfare of the country both in war and in peace. We hope these statements will be of general interest and that they will answer some questions and meet some criticisms which have been raised in connection with our recent application for a higher gas rate.

Eddie Loose, Mike Brndv "and Leo Deigel found at the last minute thev couid not go. Without this quartette, the "pro" regiment will not be as strong, but it is a likely looking outfit nevertheless and should make a creditable showing. Jim Barnes, while he decided to make the trip, mav not be able to take part iu the drive’for the open title. He is in poor condition. Walter Hagen hasn't been doing much playing and he will need a lot of practice to get into form. Between now and June 20. the selection committee will name another player to take the place of Harry Hampton.
