AT THE SPEEDWAY should have been M I “ladies’ day” at the Speed- __ I way. The fair sex probably would have been dazzled by the welltailored appearance of many of the auto pilots who were strollin# around in their "citzen" clothes. Oil and gr°ase were conspicuous by their absence, even in the garages. Most of those working on the cars had not. had time to get the nice white overalls dirty. Right at the very start in t first garage, there was Rennie Hill, neat as a. pin in a .blue suit, talking to Bob McDonogh, who was working on something or other in the whitest of jumpers. A little farther down the line was Leon Duray slouching against a work bench, his bands in his pockets. And there wasn’t a speck on Leon. At the far end of (he garages Pete Do Paolo drove up in a big car. The sartorial prize of Friday should go lo Pole. Plenty of class—and collegiate—without a hat. Two of the best in the race game were talking when Pe Paolo and Harry Hartz exchanged greetings. Pete complimented Harry on a new paint job for Hartz’s baby racers. Not being an artist, the color is hard to describe, but it was a shade of gray. Harry was busy working nr his car, which was all together —a strange sight where most of the “boats’’ were scattered about the garages in such fashion that to a casual observer it appeared as though “all Ihe king’s horses and all the king's men eouldn't put. them together again." And, by the way, Hartz was in nice white costume. And there was Tommy Milton at the lunch stand with Steve Hannagan. speedway publicity man. Those two were together in New York recently. Probably had plenty to talk about. Harlan Fengler looked like a mere kid when he stepped out of the garage to get bis picture “took.” Eddie Heamo, Ralph Hepburn and Bennie Hill, all in ''civics" lined up for their pictures and the race fans probably wouldn’t recognize them. They looked too clean. They all seem to prefer the tweeds and coarse woven mixtures. Snappy, is the word. "Red’' Shaffer got in one picture with a. pair of yellow overalls on. He was the discordant note amidst ail the splendor. Hepburn took off a. pair of shaded glasses just for a moment while he was “shot.” Ralph bumped into a sparrow at Atlantic City and was lucky to get out of it with a whole skin. The bird hit his goggles and broke them. * * * Pete Do Paolo is the picture of health. He knows that physical condition means much and he always appears in fine shape. • Some of the drivers were wondering if it would snow Friday. A cold wind swept into the garages and made some of the boys up from the South shiver . • • • —-i TEVF! HANNAGAN gets some of his thrills on the i__J boulevards. Corning in from the Speedway Friday Steve was hit by a flivver. The old genfirman driving did not see Hannagan’s car at all. and drove right into the 'rear fender. Steve got out to “cuss" and then changed liis mind. The other fellow actually admitted he was in the wrong. What . an be done in a case like that? • • • OERSEVERENCE and consistency—attention to detail—that’3 Harry Hartz for you. That young gentleman has supplanted the brilliant Pete De Paolo as leader in championship points, according to announcement Friday by the contest board of American Automobile Association. Hartz’s second place in the Charlotte race. In which Pete was forced from the running by mechanical trouble, raised his grand total to 1,320 points to He Paolo's 1,180. The 500-mile race on May St will be another battle for the A. A. A. lead. Hartz Is a hard worker—and he whs right at it on Friday. He knows that he can drive that car of his as fast as any of them. The tug idea Is to have the car ready for the supreme test. Harry is not wasting a precious minute. • • • j _ RS MALA PROP sent us a [ jvl I telegram from Louisville this morning. She fears it may rain and has another horse picked if the track is not dry. riday she said Bubbling Over was likely to win. The message follows; There are 100 many clouds in she sky. If it should rain and make the track muddy Display and Riiinock have good chances (o win. Royorofter also would be right up in the running. Bubbling Over needs a fast track. Mrs. Mala prop.

May 15.—Bobby Jones with an 81 was leading the British and American amateurs who had reported their first round play in the St. George's vase tournament at 2:40 p m. today.

They were Francis Ouimet. of Boston with 85 and Jess Sweetzer of New York, with 91. it was a frightful morning for golf. A terrific gale and rain squalls prevailed all morning and the golfers said they rarely had had more difficult weather conditions to overcome. The American champion had two bad holes. At the eleventh he took a six, including three putts, and on the fifteenth, after two beautiful shots, leaving him hole high, he took three strokes getting out of the rough. Two putts were needed and he had a seven for the hole.

By Dick Miller Indiana University golf team | came to town recently and took j the Bulldogs of Butler In a tee and green match. 14-4 Medal and best ball matches were played. The Crimson club swingers axe well up in the Big Ten rating this year and have a cracker-jack, welldeveloped team of golfers. Butler is no slouch team and has one player on the squad who probably could make any college team in the country. Virgil Robey shot a 74 in the morning round, which is a course record this year at the Pleasant Run I playground with exception of a | 72 by Wally Nelson, pro at the course, who coaches the Butler I team. Hast Saturday Butler took the | De Pauw. University squad into camp. 20-2. Gordon Paul substl- , tuted for Helton on the Butler team and played good golf. Today the Bulldogs were to clash t with their old rivals, Wabash, at ] the East End course. Golf is fast ! becoming a popular sport at many colleges these days. * • * A place near the head of this column seems to he reserved for the hole-ln-one players. The latest to register was Dr. C. O. Richey, who sank a tee shot in the cup 180 yards away on No. 6 at Coffin course Friday. It happened* that when the shot took place, Richey was playing with ; George Stark, professional, and taking some lessons. But George doesn't profess to teach “hole-ln-one" shots, or how to make them, so don't telephone him asking for a holein one lesson engagement Richey turned in a card of 9 5-7-6-1 4-1-6-6-4, or 4S for the first nine, i and he is a beginner. Stark turned in a remarkable card 1 of 4-4-4-4-4-S-4-4-3—34 for the nine. Now% Coffin golfers, there is two scores to shoot at, a hole in one on | six, and a 34. • • • Indianapolis, undisputed owner of the most beautiful municipal golf courses, should be the host to the sixth amateur public links championship tournament iri 1927. Harry Schopp, South Grove pro, recently was named by the United States j j Golf Association as the local representative to handle all preliminary i tournaments leading to the choosing I the local players to enter the 1926 ! tournament to be held at Buffalo Aug. 3 to 7. Schopp says he would like to hear the views of local municipal golfers about holding a qualifying round in July. Mail your opinions to this column. Schopp also wants the support of every one behind the movement to get the tournament here in 1927. Schopp says: “What a wonderful meet It could be in this city, wdth the four courses, Riverside, Coffin, Pleasant Run and South Grove, offering the best courses in the country as playgrounds for the invaders I to match skill. A round a. day over ! ' a different course would offer every ! kin-1 of a golf hazard," he said. I "And the tournament could bo run ! off in seventy-two-hole medal play | as most big open meets are." ff you favor bringing hundreds of j visiting golfers to our city and show our beautiful courses, write to this) column. We will turn letters over j to Schopp and see that the United | States Golf Association hears about them. * • • Tournament day for women at Pleasant Run Monday.

' ' Tribe Gossip By Eddie Ash Ownie Bush s Indians did not play | Friday, but the boys were sent | through a workout at Washington j Park to keep them on edge for a : double-header at Louisville, Sunday. Some of the Tribe pastimers departed for Louisville. Friday night, others went down this morning and . a few will remain here until Sunday I morning. The athletes who delight j in seeing the horses gallop were in Louisville today to view the Derby, i The A. B. C.f, local team in the 1 National Negro league, were f-o open their home season at Washington Park this afternoon in a game with Jim Taylor's Cleveland aggregation Another struggle will be staged here Sunday. The Indians will be back Monday to battle the Colonels at Washing- , ton Park. I ' The Tribesmen "had it on" the champions last season and the Louisville sluggers are filled with a ■ desire to make the Hoosiers suffer. Speeoe and Hill are slated to pitch for the Indians at Louisville, Sun day. A number of Indianapolis sports who did not take in the Derby to- j day plan to hustle to Louisville, Sun- ! day morning to be on hand for the ' Tribe-Colonel twin bill. Heinie Groh, veteran third-sacker, j released by the Giants recently, : has been signed by the Toledo \ Hens. Fans in Toledo are sup- ! porting their team in grand style, j and the addition of Groh is ex j pected to stir up more enthusiasm , and also bolster the ball club. With the coming of the Colonels to Indianapolis for games Monday and Tuesday the largest week-day i crowds of the season probably wiil 1 pass into Washington Park. Like j the St. Paul Saints, the "Louisvilles” are a rough and ready outfit, always scrapping for an edge. Bill Meyer, now Colonel manager, has tried to bluff all umpires this | season, and. like Nick Allen of the Saints, he has been getting away with “murder." Tom Hickey, league president, visited Coloneltown recently in an effort to eliminate riotous scenes in the Louisville ball park. The Colonels are stout and are burning up to obtain a big lead in the race, and they are hard to get along with when on the short end of the score. ROLLER POLO CONTEST The Riverside roller polo team will meet the strong Western Union j squad of Cincinnati at the River- j side skating rink tonight in the last game of the season. The local team j is expecting strong opposition. The j line-up of the Riverside team will ! be Berger and F. Davis, rushes: Car- j min, center; Whaley, back guard, and Byers at the goal. The game will start at. 9 o'clock.

FANS IN FRENZY AT RACE (( ontinued From Tage 1i Coe's great 3 year-old leaned attentively over the neat white rail along the straightaway and watched the pride of the East paw and prance and stretch sleek, immaculate and black limbs in an early morning "breeze." Over in ihe Rradlev stables beyond the bark stretch, there were early | morning signs of activity as the hope of the West, Bubbling Over, and his companions. Boot-to Boot and B.igcnhaggage. were brought out for care ful restrained canters. Bubbling Oxer Flit* “The best horse ever I trained." said J. H. Thompson pridefully, as he watched the graceful brown shape of Bubbling Over flit along the rail for a half mile or so. Many turf experts, out at daybreak for a final glimpse of the Derby candidates before the afternoon's stirring bugle call, shook their heads sagely and reminded one another that in the fifty odd years since the starters' flag sent the first Kentu<-ky Derby field a-winging. only seventeen favorites reached the judge's stand in the van. "In many ways this is the most "pen Derby in years." said one of the I wisest of turf observers. Four others, besides the favorites, who commanded special atteni tion during the morning w r ere Harry | Payne Whitney's Blondin, which i finished second in the Prcakne.ss I last Monday; J. E. Griffith's Canter, lin whom Maryland ha.d not lost | hope; Mrs. George Cox's Rhinoek. the stout-hearted out homely western colt, an.l V. J. Salmon's illj tempered but st -one finishing Dis- ; play, winner of the Pimlico classic. Traffic Tangle Louisville stirred early to wake- | fulness and soon the teeming streets rang with the shrill cries of news|hoys and the raucous shouts of chauffeurs soliciting fares. I Those who wished a taxi for the afternoon paid from $25 to $59. I Those who bad their own motor cars awaited their turns in the per- | flexing tangle of traffic, sharing exasperation with the driver of the meanest carryall. A perspiring, baggy-trousered traffic cop at one of the principal crossings had a bottle of pop at his feet and drained it casually while the long line of cars hooted. Filled to capacity, with private houses doing service as emergency hostelrles for late arrivals, the city began to empty its thousands of visitors to the Downs. Street cars, running on a one-minute schedule, could not accommodate even the morning throng. PURPLE GOLFERS LOSE j T'nifrd Prr*n EVANSTON. 111..

Be it mansion or shack—“ Home” is —or should be—life’s greatest influence. The word “home” causes more happy blessed associations than any other word in the. English language with the sole exceptions of “mother” and “father.” Homes that are “Owned Homes,” not rented houses, are the happiest homes. Many young couples are very serious right now. “Shall we own our home now or later,” they say.

GEORGIA BOXER WINNER Young Stribling Proves Too Much for Risko in N. Y. Bout. B(( United Prex* NEW YORK, May 15—Toung Stribling, the Georgia boxer, has demonstrated that he will have a good chance to remove the light heavyweight crown from the head of Patti Berlenbach when the two meet on June 10. Stribllng's victory Friday night over Johnny Risko, the Cleveland iron man, proved his fitness. The Georgian conceded fifteen pounds. While there were no knockdowns, Stribling had the edge in most of the ten rounds, and there was no ques tioning of the unanimous decision for the Southerner. Stribllng's speed and skill and an acrobatic defense outweighed Risko's energy and willingness to force the fighting. Chick Suggs, New England bantamweight, champion, had Johnny Brown, English title holder, in i-uch a bad way that the referee stopped the bout in the fifth round. In the opening contest Steve Nugent, 119V4, of Cleveland, drew with Lev? Prest, 122. of New York The second number went to Yale Okum, 173, of New York, from George Cook, 1 ?7Vs. Australia. The bout went ten rounds and the de cision was popular. I. U. TRACK VICTORY Crimson Downs Purdue in Dual Meet at Bloomington. Rn Timex FSveeinl i BLOOMINGTON, Ind., May 15.
