Talking IT Over BY JOE WILLIAMS

NEW YORK, May 23 —A couple of young men who are getting ready to fight for the heavyweight championship of the world motored into town to attend a sports dinner. They picked up the metropolitan newspapers to see what was going on in the world over which they rule.

Page after page they turned, and not a line about the two young men who £• getting ready to fight for the heavyweight championship of tne world. ■ This Is indeed strange, frowned Jack Sharker, the challenger, in a caste New England dialect, acquired in Rochester, N Y "Arid faith It is me bve “ echoed Herr Max Schmellr.g. the champion his rich Teutonic accent suggesting s Wagner.an old uncle does not mind telling vou little girls and hors that It la very | r*range Indeed What has come over the newspapers anyhow?

Sharkey is at Orangeburg and the young Herr is at Kingston. They have been there for more than a week. Day after day they go out on the road, they I punch the bag, they step Into the ring and risk bodily Injury, yea,; even death, in exchanging punches with their servants, equipped with frightful twenty-ounce pillows. And whv do thev go through this trying. testing, travail? Simply because a silly, selfish public must nave a world champion, an idol a Messiah of Muscle to worship. So those old birds who threw the lion* to the Christian* were barbarians. eh? Bah! •All I can sav Is that it doe*n t seem sporting In the past when two young men went out to tram for the heavy- ! weight championship of the world the edi- : tors sent an armv of reporter* and photographers along with them. Every move , thev made and some they didn t make, was slapped on the wires, rushed Into type. ( fitted onto the presses, and a foaming cascade of extras kept an eager public informed about everything. In those davs it was worth a fellow's bother, even if he only got a million dollar purge to try to do something for the people. If I were Bharkev and the young Herr I believe I would quit in disgust I would say. "Its spinach gad—-well It's better than nothinsf ” 1 mean what Is the sense In training for a championship fight if the newspapers won't pay any attention to tt? I suppose the newspaper* remember that the last time these two young men met they perpetrated a huge fiasco and went laughingly away to split $750,000 of the public's monev between them. That's one of the terrible things about : newspapers Thev will remember such : harmless trivialities. GARDEN MEET MAY 29!

♦ Speedway Chatter ♦

BY NORMAN E. ISAACS THE fact that Leon Duray's car was revealed as having a supercharger seemed to amaze some of the grandstand railbirds Sunday, but the story is that Duray’s machine is the only car in the race with a supercharger, and then only by grace of its being a two-cycle. a a a (•eorge Howie tried to quality Sunday and barrelled around his first lap at 10.V--B!*s milea an hour. It was rood time for the stock machine. It's a Chryslermotored car, and on the second lap the ear kicked out on the backstretch and George said he'd try today. a a a Lora L.

BY GEORGE KIRKSEY L'nlted Prett Staff Correspondent CHICAGO. May 23.—Berths on the Olympic team have been reserved for five Big Ten athletes as a result of their efforts in the Western Conference track and field championships. Several others showed Olympic possibilities, but, barring untoward events, Don Bennett and Jack Keller of Ohio State, George Saling of lowa, Henry Brocksmith of Indiana and John Brooks of Chicago, will wear the red, white and blue shield at Los Angeles this summer. Michigan, which won the team championships for the twelfth time in the twenty-two years the Wolverines have participated, did not exhibit an outstanding individual star, rolling up 50'- points on all-round

mile.* an hour. It wasn't regarded as being near fast enough and the boya flagged him down to come In and do some more work on the machine. a a a Joe Russo, who piloted the Art Rose Special at a qualifying speed of 108.791 miles an hour, entertained the crowds Saturday and Sunday with hts blindfold stunt. They even laid pie pans out In the middle of the track and Joe smacked every one right on the nose. Hal ana Saturday proved a busy day up in the timers’ quarters. Odis A. Porter, the chief timer, was keeping tab on the machine as usual, and Chester Ricker, chief scorer and timer, was busy figuring and calling out the times and speeds. And on the calculating machines was the “old reliable” S. J. Williams. of the Roy Wilmeth Company. a a a Elbert (Babe* Stapp. who was injured recently in a rraekup at Ascot out on the west coast, has wired T. E. (Pop) Myers, general manager of the Speedway, that he won't be here for the race. Nominated to pilot the Gilmore Special, Babe informed Pop that his arm Is fractured in three places and that It will be impossible for him to drive. H. W. (Stubby) Stubblefield probably will pilot the Gilmore, which is the fonr-rrlindered ear which aet new world record on the Murdoe dry lake out west. a a a Lou Moore’s pole-winning run Saturday was one swell ride. Leu turned his first lap at 116.9595 miles an hour, his second at 117.249 m. p. h.. his third at 117.066. and his last lap at 118.577 miles an hour. He certainly had the Bovle Valve singing a sweet song of speed. a a a Much attention at the track is being centered on the two four-wheel drive cars that remain in the lists One is the Mlller-FWD Special entered by the Four-Wheel-Drive Auto Company of Cllntonvtlle, Wis.. and the other, a twin, by Harry Miller, who designed and built both. Bob McDonogh. who will pilot the truck companv's entrv. knocked off about 110 miles sn hour Sunday and is just about ready to qualify It Barney .Oldfield, the manager of the FWD car. and at first nominated as the driver, took the wheel for a few laps Sunday and got a big hand ffom the crowd. The veteran Oldfield will not drive in the race, as stated previously bv Speedway officials.

BOZEMAN BULGER DEAD By United Press NEW YORK. May 23. Many notables of the sports world will attend the funeral Tuesday of Bozeman Bulger, veteran sports writer and dean of the baseball experts, who died after a heart attack Sunday at his home in Lynbrook, Long Island. He was 55. Bulger was with the old Evening World during most of his career as a sports writer. When the World ceased publication. Bulger wrote for the Saturday Evening Post. He had just completed a life of John J. McGraw, manager of the New York Giants, for the Post when he died. BLUE BATTLES STATE Butler’s diamond pastimers, coached by Wee Willie McGill, went through final practice today for Tuesday's battle with Indiana State at Terre Haute. Hutsell probably will start on the Bulldog slab.

Heavy-Footed Trio Thrills Big Crowd With Daring Qualifications; Others to Test Mounts This Week; Coleman Eliminated in Smashup. BY NORMAN E. ISAAC!* With twenty-three cars already qualified for the 500-mile gasoline derby next Monday, elimination trials will continue at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway the remainder of this week. The front row in this year's classic event could more aptly be termed "dynamite row,” for sitting up there are three machines loaded with T. N. T. and behind the steering wheels are three o! the heaviest-footed of the racing clan. At the pole is Lou Moore in his Boyle Valve Special, which traveled 117.363 miles an hour in the qualifications Saturday as nearly 30,000 persons looked on. Billy Arnold got No. 2 position with 116.290 miles an hour, and Bryan Saulpaugh won No. 3 with 114.369 miles an hour.

team strength. Ohio State was second with 46*2 and Indiana third with 43*. 4. The outstanding performance of Saturday’s meet was contributed by Keller, who ran the 120-yard high nurdles in fourteen seconds, rourtenths of a second faster than the worlds record and two-tenths of a second faster than the American A. A U. record made by Percy Beard last winter indoors. Keller was aided by a brisk wind at his back, as were all athletes who participated in the dashes and hurdle races down the straightaway. Keller’s mark will not be given official recognition. Oddly enough, Keller was both hero and goat during the meet After winning the high hurdles he pulled a tendon in his leg during the running of the 220-yard low hurdles and had to quit. Keller’i injury robbed Ohio State of a great chance to win its first Big Ten track title. Sallng. who was only inches back o. Keller in the high hurdles, won the low hurdles in the worlds record time of 23 seconds. Bennett, the slim, little Ohio State sophomore, who ran the 100yard dash in P. 5 seconds, equaling the world’s record, and the 220-yard dash in 20.5 seconds, clipping onetenth of a second off the world’s standard, consistently has flashed sufficient speed to warrant the prediction he will make the Olympic team. Although Henry Brocksmith did , n °t come close to cracking any records in the mile and two mile runs, he won both events with such apparent ease that the weather conditions and lack of competition undoubtedly slowed up his time. He has not been beaten this year. John Brooks. Chicago Negro sophomore, leaped 25 feet to win the broad jump, the second best jump of the year, which makes him a strong contender for an Olympic berth.

THE INDIANAPOLIS TIMES

Arnold and Saulpaugh took their trials early in the day when conditions were perfect, but Moore went after the pole and won it when a high wind was sweeping across the Speedway and cutting down his speed in the south turn and in the backstretch. Snowberger Is Next Russ Snowberger in his Hupp Comet took his trial early in the j day and came out with a 114.326 miles an hour average, enough to land him the pole position in the second row. It was the best performance of all the stock machines, j The thrills started early on Sat- \ urday after Frank Brisko and Tony Gulotta had qualified their ma- j chines. Luther Johnson went out; ■in his Studebaker and coming down the front stretch on his second lap, his left rear tire went flat. Luther had to do some hard steering, but he held the Studie squarely in the "groove” and eased around the track for anew tire. Right then Saulpaugh started in the sixteen-cylindered Harry Miller special He knocked off the first lap at 115.119 miles an hour and the second at 116.174 miles an hour. Zooming into the turn at about 120 miles an hour, Saulpaugh's right front tire went out like a light and Bryan turned in a magnificent driving performance. The car swerved to the top of the track, but Bryan swuhg the machine out of it and slipped to the bottom and then twisted it back into the middle of the track. Whether the tire blew out or whether the terrific speed merely burned the tire off remains a mystery. Byran pulled back in and took his trial a half hour later. Mcrzney Hits Wall A few minutes later Zeke Meyer went a-touring in the fifth Studebaker, which he will pilot, and the steering gear went haywire. Zeke skated around on the north turn and then came to rest against the wall on the northwest turn. The car will be ready to take its trial Tuesday, Zeke said. Early Sunday Fred Merzney took the Coleman four-wheel drive car for a ride and cracked into No. 1 turn, demolishing the car. Sparky Sparks was riding with Fred, but neither was hurt. The car, however, was wrecked too badly and the Coleman people packed up and left i for home. Tyson Escapes A bit later. Art Tyson took Tulio Gulotta's car for an airing and broke up on No. 1 turn, also, out i escaped injury. The frame was j bent, but Tulio decided it would be ready for action today or Tuesday. Only two cars qualified Sunday. Wilbur Shaw and Al Aspen, but Leon Duray spiced things up when his two-cycle sixteen-cylinder job had trouble on the southeast turn. The rubber hose, connecting the supercharger and the carburetors broke. There wasn’t a thing damaged and Leon's noisy buggy will be ready today.

Tribe Clings to Lead by Walloping Birds Taitt and Cooney Shine in Series Opener Sunday; Rivals to Resume Action at 8 Tonight: Millers Crowd Hoosiers for First Place. BY EDDIE ASH * Times Sport* Editor Having disposed of the Columbus Red Birds in decisive fashion in an afternoon game Sunday, 11 to 2, the Indians will endeavor to repeat under the lights at Perry stadium tonight. It will be the inaugural contest of the season here for night baseball and it will be "ladies' night.” Feminine fans will be admitted free to grandstand and bleachers with or without escort and stadium officials are prepared to handle a large turnout. Action will start at 8 o’clock. Tire series with the Birds will end Tuesday with a day battle starting a 3 o’clock. The Tribesmen were compelled to win Sunday to remain in first place owing to the fact Ownie Bush's Millers copped a double-header from Kansas City to step on the neels of the Hoosiers. Asa matter of fact, the Millers are less than one-half game back of the men of McCann and it’s up to the local athletes to keep traveling at high speed if they are to stay out in front.

The struggle here Sunday was featured by the swatting of Douglas Taitt, now Tribe putflelder. and the pitching of Johnny Cooney. Taitt batted in five runs with a collection of three hits, two doubles and a single, and Cooney exhibited some choice hurling in the tight spots. Moreover, the Indian flinper cut himself two pieces of base-hit pie and batted in two markers with the timely blows. The nine Coltvnbu* hits were kept scattered and the two Bird tallies were registered in the sixth after two down, when the lone Tribe mlscue proved costly. Bill Lee. Lanky Columbus flinger, looked the part of a champion ior four innings, allowing only two hits, one a scratch, but in the fifth he weakened and the Bird defense also cracked, enabling the Indians to rush over three runs. Tom Angley launched the rally as first up by bouncing a triple off the high right field wall. The inning total consisted of three runs, three hits, three errors and three left. In the seventh two walks, a balk, a sacrifice, a single and Taitt’s drive for two cushions were good for a three-run cluster. Consecutive singles by Angley. Rosenberg and Cooney in the eighth marked the passing of Lee and Grabowski. southpaw, relieved him. but the Indians batted around, nevertheless, and five more runs boosted the home total to 11.
