B y Eddie Asln \ ** Has Heen Colorful Show Since 1911 Here They Come—and There They Go!
D ow X through the years at the Speedway the 500-mile test of heart and skill on the part of the drivers, the endurance of the cars to hold out under the terrific strain of the pace, the flurry of action in the pits, all have combined to form America’s greatest motor sports spectacle since 1911, on May 30. The parade, the lineup of pilots, the preliminary lap and then the race—2oo times around the two and one-half mile treacherous course—gets under way and settles down to a swiftly-moving string of roaring speed creations guided by the daring space eaters, accompanied by the no less daring but unheralded, ever-ready’mechanicians.
a a a Fans Rush at Finish F'ROM 10 a. m. to mid-afternoon the larger part of the crowd watches the "here-they-come-and-there-they-go” picture, and as the b event nears the finish thousands of spectators rush back to their seats or other points of vantage to see the conclusion of another international sweepstakes. It’s an unusual sports event from one angle. Thousands of the race-goers present do not see the entire event, but take time out to relax, eat, visit among friends in other parts of the grounds or to enjoy a catnap now and then in their machines parked on-the infield. The show today is the twentyfirst, twenty scheduled at 500 miles and one of 300 miles, in 1016. Rain halted one, in 1026, at 400 miles, the late Frank Lockhart winning the curtailed race. The 300-mile battle of 1016, won by Dario Resta, was an experiment, and it failed to measure up to 500mile interest and thrills, and w'hen racing w r as resumed following the war years of ’l7 and ’lB the distance was restored to the five-century mark. Wild Bull of the A. A. Baseball fans of the a. a. would have liked to have seen Tris Speaker stay on as manager of the Kansas City Blues, but at the same time they are glad to welcome his successor, Nick Allen, formerly known as the “Wild Bull of the A. A.” Nick used to pilot the St. Paul Saints and there was always something stirring above the ordinary run of things when he was in the ball pnrk. Baseball followers in the Hickey loop will recall the many hard fights between the Indians, when Ownie Bush was at the helm here, and when Allen piloted the Apostles. Both went, to the front for their teams at the drop of a hat and there was excitement galore whenever the rivals mixed in a close contest. Allen has been out of the league for some time, and last December it was reported Columbus was interested in taking him on. but was compelled to emnlov Ray Blades of the St. Louis Cardinal chain, of which the Bed Birds are a link. If there is anv fire in the Blues. Nick is sure to start it blaring Moreover, he needs hut little kindling to build a bonfire.
Yankees, Nats Renew Rivalry Jin !'nit erf Pres* NEW YORK. May 30.—Eight Memorial day double-lK?aders were scheduled in the major leagues today. but the baseball world riveted Its attention on the twin bill between the New York Yankees and the Senators at Washington because of the back ground of hostility between the club and their intense pennant rivalry. Because of the inflammable situation. William Harridge, president of the American League, warned players of both clubs to confine their activities to baseball, and that any fighting would be punished severely. The Yanks, leading the league, were only two games ahead of the Senators. Washington could take the lead by sweeping the threegame series.

Although ; the big pool is open new to early : ser.sc bathers, the official opening : is Sunday. The exhibitions have been sanctioned by the A. A. U. Helen Lee Smith, young I. A. C. ace, who placed second in the in- , dividual medley event in the national senior A. A. U. championship last month: Joe Swallow of I. A. C., winner of the 1932 three-mile river swim: the H. A.

tt a tt Clark Tells of Hildy ORAL HILDEBRAND will be the subject of a talk by Potsy Clark over WKBF this evening at 6 o'clock. Clark was athletic director at Butler university when Hildebrand was a star pitcher and basketball player with the Blue. Oral will return to Indianapolis Wednesday afternoon to perform in an exhibition game with the Cleveland Americans and Indianapolis Indians at Perry stadium. Clark now is one of the prominent coaches and leading lights in the National Professional Football League and is “head man” of the powerful Portsmouth (O.) eleven. tt a a Those One-Hitters THREE times in two years Tommy Bridges has stood on the threshold of baseball's hall of fame, only one hit robbing him of the privilege of joining his fellows who have pitched no-hit no-run games. Old Grover Alexander pitched four one-hit games in the season of 1915. Addie Joss, the old Cleveland fire-baller, shared Tommy’s experience. Three times during the 1907 season he pitched one-hit games, twice against Detroit, once against New York. a a a Pinch Hitter Connects IN his one-hit game of last August, two were out in the ninth when Walter Johnson sent Dave Harris up to pinch hit for the Washington pitcher. It was Harris’ single that spoiled the game. Bridges did not grumble. In the locker room afterward he said: “Sure I was disappointed, but I didn’t want a no-hit game if I couldn’t honestly earn it. Suppose Harris had whifTed on purpose, just for the sake of giving me the record: what satisfaction would I get out of that? “After all, there's a lot of luck in a no-hit game. Everything has to break just right.” a tt a IKE BOONE and Buzz Arlett, batting sensations of the International League, who were dropped from the majors because they couldn’t play outfield, are going great in the minors again. Buzz is the home-run hero in Baltimore, and Ike hit in twenty-nine straight games for Toronto. Bill SkifT, former A. A. catcher, is an illustration of the reason most boys taking up baseball steer clear of catching. He had eleven fractures of fingers on his right hand in fifteen years of league ball. a tt Dan Comerford, baggage and clubhouse man for the Brooklyn Dodgers for twenty years, says Hack Wilson takes the prize in soiling his uniform. Dan declares old Jack Quinn was one of the neatest players. a o a Babe Connaughton, former allAmerica grid guard at Georgetown, weighed 295 when in playing form. He now scales 195. Yes, he’s been employed, but you can't beat those free meals when you are the hero of the campus. a o a There were a lot of yachting caps worn at the 500-mile race here today, but where were the yachts? That’s about all most former yachtsmen have left, their sea-go-ing headgear.
representing the two circuits in the world fair contest. President John Heydler of the National League told the United Press today that Charles A. Stoneham, president of the New York Giants had proposed the selection of McGraw as one of the managers. McGraw, vice-president of the Giants, retired as manager last summer after thirty years on the bench. Prexy Heydler said it was quite probable the club owners of his circuit would choose McGraw at their meeting in New York, June 20. Reports from American League sources idicated that Connie Mack, manager of the Philadelphia Athletics. was favored by most officials and players to pilot their all-star team. The last time Connie and McGraw were opposed was in the world series of 1913.

By Times Sprrinl NEW YORK, May 30.—Kerry Patch, with little Silvio Coucci in the saddle, was a 3-to-l favorite today to capture the fifty-eighth running of the $30,000 Withers mile at Belmont park from ten other probable starters.
