CLASSICS ON MEMORIAL DAY

MAX

AND JOE AND IN JUNE

UST how much zing the $100,000 horse race will detract from the $100,000 motor race on Memorial Day is difficult to fathom at this time, but hereabouts it's a safe guess the 500-mile classic will retain its same prestige and pack em in as usual. New York will have its War Admiral and Seabiscuit, but Indianapolis will have its Wilbur Shaw, Louie Meyer, Bill Cummings and a galaxy of other speed kings roaring over the bricks and asphalt for 200 laps on a two-and-a-half-mile course. Last vear's record Speedway crowd saw the greatest “500” of all time and thousands of the customers who watched that frantic finish between Shaw, and_ Ralph Hepburn made early arrangements to return this year. Drivers, mechanics and Speedway officials agree that the 193R event is going to be faster, including, of course, the qualifying trials. . . . More new cars are on hand than ever before, a large field of experienced pilots are on the ground and certain race restrictions have been removed to permit the drivers to go the limit after new records. »

no “battles of the century” are coming up— A cars and pilots. horses and jockeys, men and gloves. The men and cloves affair is booked on June 22, when Joe Louis and Max Schmeling mix in the heavyweight championship bout which threatens to set the sports world boiling like it has never boiled before. These classics of the turf, the roaring way and the ring coming within a span of 23 days are going to put a lot of money into circulation, as well as develop a bumper crop of jaded pocketbooks.

AY SCHALK'S hustling Indians, out on the road in Kansas City battling for first place, are playing under two heavy handicaps. Only one catcher—Bill Baker—is with the team and Jimmy Pofahl, shortstop, is on the disabled list with a wrenched ankle which will keep him idle for approximately two weeks, according to Leo Miller, general manager, who is in K. C. with the Tribe. Buddy Lewis, catcher, is in Indianapolis recovering from a stomach ailment. Symptoms of appendicitis led Manager Schalk to rush Lewis here for observation and a general checkup. Infielder Lou Menendez, who was at the Union Station last night awaiting a train to return to the Boston Bees for reassignment to another minor league club, was headed off by Dale Miller, Tribe secretary, and placed aboard a plane for Kansas City to rejoin the Indians today and fill the utility role while Buck Fausett fills in for the injured Pofahl.
