20 Pilots Ready to Test Speed Saturday

Battle for Pole Position to Draw Out Fastest Cars for Opening Day of Qualification Tests; Ernie Triplett Is Favorite. P.Y NORMAN E ISAACS Old Man Rain stuck his head back into the picture early today, found himself listed at the Indianapolis Motor Spedeway as “Public Enemy No 1 ' and then withdrew from the picture and hopes of a another sunny day rose again at the track where qualification tests begin Saturday morning Starting at 8 Saturday, instead of 9 as previously announced, ap- 1 proximately twenty of the fastest racing cars in “gasoline alley” are scheduled to take their 25-mile tests for the 500-mlle race on May 30. The minimum speed for qualification in the trials is 100 miles an hour. Sixty-three cars are entered and only forty-two machines will star 1 The slowest machines will be eliminated and most of the drivers whose mounts range in speed from 100 to 110 miles an hour are busy tr-.jng to tack on a few more miles to assure their qualification.

A- least six cars will be in the race for the coveted pole position, awarded to the fastest qualifier Saturday. When Ernie Triplett tore around the Speedway recently faster than 120 miles an hour to set anew twoman car speed record for a single lap the blond Pacific Coast champion definitely notifed his rivals he was out for qualifying honors. May Reac h 119 Since then, drivers and car owner have gone into huddles around alley, making careful conjectures as to who could catch the flying west coaster in the eliminations. The increase in the qualification distance from 10 to 25 miles has brought in many opinions that Triplett can not keep up such a terrific pare over the most grueling distance ever designed for a test run But. still there are some veterans who think Triplett, can make 122 miles an hour in his car and will qualify at around 119 miles an hour. The Michael J Boyle eight-cyl-lndered Miller, which Lou Moore took the pole with last year at a speed of 117.383 miles an hour, has been completely rebuilt and with “Wild Bill" Cummings at the wheel may be able to approach Triplett’s fast time. Wilcox Real Threat Howdy Wilcox has a spanking new car capable of high speed, and Howdy was due out on the bricks today to give his creation the last “once-over.” Both the cars entered by Harry Hart?, are capable of speed as good or better than 118 miles an hour. One. a four-cylinder creation, may be driven by Lester Spangler, who was out Thursday turning 113-mile-an-hour laps. The other may be driven bv Fred Frame, winner in 1932. The four-wheel drive car which Frank Brisko of Milwaukee will pilot has been clocked at 119 miles an hour and is the one big definite threat for the pole position. Brisko even may attempt to set. new records in the qualifications. Lou Moore has a four-cylinder Foreman Axle Special which has great possibilities, and so has Leon Duray a four-cylinder Miller, which may pop up with some surprises. With just these few seated in high-powered machines, the field on Memorial day gives every promise of being the fastest ever to line up at Indianapolis l. U.
