DAY OF REST FOR PILOTS OF SPEED EATERS Ten Racers Qualified Appear Ready to Take Starters Signal. MORE TRIALS FRIDAY

There were not quite so many hustling, bustling drivers and mechanics running wild around the Indianapolis Speedway garages today; in fact, today offered the first little let-up for the grease smeared boys who are looking after the work of preparing the powerful speed wagons for the 500-mile race on the Speedway oval next Monday, and the let-up came because of the fact that "ten drivers showed their cars were set for the grind when they went through their required ten miles of qualification driving yesterday afternoon. Little work will be done on the cars that qualified yesterday. With but one or two exceptions the drivers cut loose with smiles of satisfaction when they were notified of their time for the four circuits of the course, and then wheeled their cars to the sheds, awaiting the drop of the starter’s flag. There are fourteen cars yet to be qualified and these must be sent through the ten miles for an eighty mile average to morrow afternoon —or else. If the cars remaining to be qualified come through the test in the brilliant manner of those on the track yesterday afternoon, then the speed fans will have gll the reason in the world to settle back tor a riice even better than that jsreat arfair of 1920, when the crowd witnessed a battle over almost every one of the 200 Ralph De Talma, the favorite •f all favorites where there is automobile racing, reported at the SpeeJwty this vear. he had nothing much to say, nly that his Ballot would be faster taaa

He did not thunder dowu the stretch and lift his foot for the tricky curves: he thundered vJKiwii the stretch, thundered into the turns, and thundered out on the stretch hgain. His motor had the same feed all the wav around the oval and the ear took the turns, as though it were simply traveling over them in the air.

WILCOX PREDICTS RACE MONDAY WILL BE FASTEST OF ALL

By HOWARD (HOWDY) WILCOX. (Only 'Previous Winner Starting In YU 500-Mile Races.) We are ready for the 500-mile race which will be held next Monday on the Indianapolis Motor Speedway. That is, we are as near ready as any racing driver is ever ready. As every good mechanic knows, there is always the feeling that with more time it would be, or at least might be, possible to lighten u spring here and tighten an adjustment there that would produce a fraction of a mile more speed. I have driven a ear in every long distance classic on the Indianapolis track Only one other man entered in the race has been in as many races here as my self and he is Ralph Mtilford. Basing my plans upon previous experi-

Local High Schools in Track Meet at Chicago

Manual will be represented by ten track stars and Tech will have a pair of entries in the national high school track and field meet to be staged on the Chicago University field Saturday under the direction of Coach Alonzo Stagg. The Manual men who will be taken to Chicago by Coach Morrison, who has turned out the State high school championship squad at Manual for the past two years, are: Gardner, E. Harmeson, H. Harmeson. Summers, McGee, Smith, Stewart, Wertz, Trout and Ross. These men are the stars of the State championship team, and they should have little trouble taking points in the Chicago meet. Glen Gray and Jack Vesiey are the Tech men who will make the trip, accompanied by Coach Black and Manager Gorman. Gray is probably one of the fastest high school dash men in this part of the country, and he should have easy sailing in the century and 220 events.

DE PACW CANCELS AOGIES. GREENCASTLE, Ind , May 26—Coach Bus* announced today that the baseball game scheduled between the De I’auw and Michigan Aggie nines to be played here Friday afternoon has been canceled Only one more game remains on the Tiger diamond card for this season. It is the last of the four games with Wabash. which will be played here next Tuesday afternoon. Wabash won the first three of the gamesThe effective pitching of Wallace and timely hitting of his teammates worked well against the loose twirling of Sherman and Blacker and bobbles by the Wabash outfield yesterday, bringing the Boilermakers a 10 to 2 victory. Wallace let the Scarlet down with four bingles, one a home run by Blacker, while Purdne registered nine blows off Sherman and Blacker. Wagner started Purdue along the road to victory ltt the first rou*i when he came up with two men on base and crashed out a home run. Kalamazoo registered their second straight victory over the Franklin nine at Franklin, running up a 4 to 1 count. Fenner for Kalamazoo and Gale for Franklin both held their opponents hitloss until the seventh round, when Frank’in sent one man around the circuit. Gale then weakened in the eighth and had to make room for Larrabee after three runners had— scored. .The lone Franklin run was *cored In the ninth inning. Foley allowed Northwestern but four hit* and fanned nine men, and the Notre Dame nine came up for a 7 to 0 victory over Northwestern at Chicago. Tbs Irish slugged Lawson'* delivery for ten clean bingles.

erne, I have prepared my car with more attention and care than ever before, because I am confident that the race nex. Monday will be the greatest international motor speed battle of all time. I have never seen as many good and fast cars asesmbled for one race. With anything like favorable, cool weather to help she tires in the long grind this race should be the fastest contest ever staged at the gruelling distance of 500 miles. We have absolute confidence in our car. We feel that we have the necessary reserve power of speed, but far and above that we have supreme confidence in the staying qualities and the finishing ability of our simple four-cylinder Peugeot. The oar is almost an exact duplicate of car which carried me to victory In 1919. We enter the time trials Friday confident.

By FRANK t ARK ETHERS, Editor of Golf Illustrated. HOYLAKE. England. May 26.—Fred C. Wright, lone survivor of the American contingent that eutered the Brifieh amateur golf championship. v.as put out of ttie running i:: the sixth round today by Ilernnrd Darwin of Woking, at the nineteenth hole. The last hope of the Yankees went, (Town to defeat fighting like a champion. The match was a nip and tuck affair from the very start, and the big gallery that braved a leaden sky. a damp breeze off the troubled Irish Sen anil a murky mist that hung over the links, got thrill after thrill. The card of the Wrlght-Darwin match: Wright, out 5 4 5 4 4 5 3 6 4 -40 Darwin, sgiit 5 4 6 3 5 (5 4 4 5 42 Wright, Wi 545 3 5 5 4 4—' *1 ■•Darwin, in 5 3 4 3 5 5 5 3 5—38—80 •Darwin won at nineteenth boles.

The Invasion of the. strongest team America lias ever sent to; the ■ light Little Isle" caused much speculation. With such players as Francois Oulmet, Charles Evans. Bobbie Jones and Jesse Guilford—a team composed of eight great amateur golfers in nil—there was much drab speculation at the outset by Brit sh devotees of the game. Wright, who fought his way to the round before the semi-final by playing brilliant, accurate golf in the face of difficulties that caused she downfall of his teammates, did not figure to make the fine showing that enabled him to carry the hopes to Americans on his youthful shoulders yp to the last ditch Darwin, his conqueror, is a more experienced golfer and Is familiar with a majority of British courses. I asked Oulmet if he could account for the failure of the Americans, lie replied - “Your conditions nre against us. We are accustomed to p’aying thirty six hole matches in which a player can find time to get his bearings and break even though he Is off his game during the early part of a match. In your eighteenhole hursts one must be screwed up from she first hole to the lust. If he strikes a bad patch he is beaten ami there is no time to recover.”

Morrison hatted for Enzmann in this inning and helped along a rally opened by Dixon, and before the Indians were retired they had scored twice and evened the count. Weaver then took up the pitching and immediately the balloon started up. He walked a man and the next Blue doubled. That was enough for Weaver. Stryker went in to try to cliei k the K.

The local colored champs dropped the final of the series with the Bacharach Giants of New York yesterjjay when the visitors staged a slugfest and won, 14 to 5. Johnson went along fairly well until the eighth, when he lost effectiveness and soon was knocked out of the box. Williams. who relieved Johnson, failed to stop the Bacharach rally and ten runs were scored In that one inning. Shively, former A. B. C. outfielder, starred for the visitors with five hits. The A. B. C.s played their best ball in the early part of the series, winning the first two contests and then dropping the next three. Manager Taylor may have some changes to make in the team unless the present roster braces in the road games to come.
