NEWS of the DAY IN

Eddie Ash

SHOWERS SLOW UP FIRST OF SPEED TRIALS Heavier Schedule of Time Tests Tomorrow as Result of Delay Encountered Today. PILOTS SPEED UP WORK Showers of the morning today made it unlikely that the opening time trials for the tenth annual 500-mile race Tuesday scheduled for this afternoon would be held. There was some hope, however, but only In case the sun came out strong enough In the early afternoon to dry off the bricks. Speed pilots do not care to risk their cars on a slippery track, however, and for this reason the officials in charge of the qualifications were expected to postpone tlie first trials until t ridaj morning. If weather and track conditions made it impossible to hold any tests today, it is thought that trial spins will be held all day Friday and during the afternoon of Saturday. Os course, the showers today were welcomed by a few of the drivers, for some have been held back by various handicaps in getting their cars ready uud a postponement of the qualifications would , be to their liking. Postponement ui the opening race tests ; today would not mean there would not be something doing at the Speedway, for the pilots and mechanicians Into plenty to keep them busy. The garages were kept noisy with mechanical activity as Ute workers toiled rprepare the speed cars for the big event. For the first time the Duesnbergs were out in force Wednesday, I)e Balum. as usual, in a cream colored car ; Jerry W on-, derlich in the tan car which finished ! fourth In the Grand Prix in France last Year, Ira Vail in his Disteel Deusy and j Harry Hartz in a snappy looking white model with red trimmings. Vail created a flurry along the wall when he knocked off a lap in 1.29 3-5, which is Just short of 101 miles an hour. This was the fastest lap of the year un-, til Ralph Mulford trotted out his Fron-J tenac a little later and crashed through with a lap In 1.2# flat, which is just a trifle better than 101 miles an hour. ; p Palma, apparently showed every- J tiling he had for he cut loose and swung Into the turns In the old lie | Palma way with alt sails set and throttle wide open. But the best he could do was about ninety-seven miles j an hour. However, Ralph did not seem In the least worried and probably will add several miles to the car before next Tuesday. Wonderllch and Harta were content with practice workouts at relatively slow speed. Late In the afternoon Cannonball Rnk*r came out in his Frontenac eight, hut it refused to behave and for a couple of laps jumped and bucked a movie broncho. ■ go Cannonball took it back to the corral lor further taming. The rotary valve, double Ignition, single seater D’Wehr has not taken the track since the first day. There was great activity around the garage Wednesday, however, and the car will be ready tor the time trials not lanr than Friday. The car has no shock absorbers and obi timers are predicting a rough ride for Frank Davidson unless he puts them ou. Molford said be was going to roll out and qualify early today and then get bark to work axaln. Most <> .v- j ors would lx* Hitting: rosy with a car -which rambled around at better tlmn lot an hour, but Ralph bad a lot of little tiling- to kick about when he came buck from the run and insisted there was a lot of work still to be done on the car. The Britishers b-re with the Bentley are not finding Indians weather to their liking, and they suggested that the next race be pulled off in December. When Ira Vail returned to the pits ■Wednesday after hitting it up around the brick course at a little more than 100 miles per hour he said the f > t •tor dtil not work as freely as he thought It might. His mechanician grinned and Mid, ‘lt’s no use monkeying with that thing. Ira keeps It down all (he way • round, anyway.” Vail states that he Intends to hit it up from the start in the big grind.

Car! Fisher was out In the early afternoon Wednesday. His soft hat could bo distinguished without an effort. Oannonhul! Baker on eemmentinsr in hi 3 recent accident in the West stated that the first thin? he thought about after Itlanded was, TfTTiis isn't sortie luck H. re I am ail in pieces and the Sieedway race only three weeks away.” The doctor told Baker seine bones were broken, but Cannonball wouldn’t believe him, and sure enough there wasn't. The Wehr motor looked helpless Wednesday nnt on tile ground till by Itself. A thousand and one parts were scattered about as the mechanics went orer the ear. Another "mystery” of the Speedway ts bow they get all those tilings together again. Ton must admit it. There's something about I>e Palma that sends a thrill down the spines of the spectators. When ha swept out on the track Wednesday and wared a careless salute to the rnflbirds there was a slight stir, a certain intangible feeling of deference in the air to the brilliant, dare-devil Italian who has Set the pace In so many gruelling races. Richard Kennerdall, referee of the 500mlle race, has arrived at the track for the big event For years head of the American Automobile Association, Kennerda’l haa become known as the f.ither confessor for all the drivers lie Is respected by every participant in the great gasoline sport. Ills home is in Frank Jin, Pa K E Edwards, chairman ol the technical committee, hi charge of mechanical requirements of the cars In the race, is in town. Bertie N'adell and David Gallup, two local men, have been aassisfing In the Important work of qualifying the cars mechanically for the five-century. Bmra Daniels, formerly of Indianapolis, now of San Francisco, arrived today. lie hasn’t been In Indianapolis for several years. Daniels was at one time a local sports writer and later advertising executive. Now he represent* the ftnti Motor Car Company on the Pacific coast. William Schlmpf, chairman of the contest board of the American Automobile Association, is scheduled to arrive In Indianapolis tomorrow. A delegation probably will meet him. He is accompanied by Arthur H Means, secretary of the contest board. They will have headquarters at the Severln Hotel. Harry Stephenson of Los Angeles, financially Interested In one of the cars Pi the big race, is a familiar figure at the track every day.

BROWNS LOOK DANGEROUS IN AMERICAN RACE St. Louis on Heels of Yanks—* Ruth Fails to Help Much. REDS STAR IN NATIONAL By HENRY L. FARRELL. NEW YORK, May 23—A fuU round has been dealt in the American League, and It looks as If the St. Louis Browns hold the best cards. They may not win the 1922 pot, but they will forco the winner „o go high and hard for It. The Browns and the Yauks split even In the first important series of the year, but If there are “Moral victories’’ In baseball, the Browns won It. They romped away to a pair of easy victories, and In the two games that they dropped they forced the lanks to bring every* thing out In extra innings. St. Louis Is going along smoothly right on the heels of the Yanks, while the American League champions look to be burning up a lot of energy that would be very valuable In August. The Yanks have finished their long stay at home ami the Browns have Successfully finished their first hard trip on the road. Players of both clubs say that amounts to little In the way of coming handicaps. The Yanks claim they are a good road club and that the Browns are going home to battle the humidity of a St. Louis summer. Contrary to general the return of Ruth and Meusel to the Yankee lineup has served to upset the club rather than put it on Its feet. Ituth always looks bad when he is not hitting and he hasn't started yet. The ’’five star” pitching staff is not delivering according to expectations and the Yauks wobbly. John McGraw will be glad to get his Giants home again as they nearly went aground on the Western rocks. Pittsburgh sneaked upon the Giants during their troubles, but the dangerous Cards decided to slump at the same time. Tho great showing of the Cincinnati Reds has been one of tho big features of the early season.
