Mays also held the previous unofficial record of 131.75 miles an hour, which he posted last year. The fastest official lap was turned by the late Jimmy Snyder when he sped over the 2'2-mile strip at 130.757 in last year’s qualifying trials. Trials Start May 18
Even before the run, it was gen-
erally agreed that Rex will be the chief contender for the pole posi-|
tion when qualifying trials begin on Saturday, May 18. In a six-

test at 126.413 miles an hour. The railbirds expected to get

Other than qualifying predictions, chief talk at the track centere around Bailey's fatal accident. Some observers believed the chief hazard on the rear-motor, four-wheel-drive was the placing of the gasoline tanks on the side of the car.
Hits Inside Fence
When Bailey's car apparently spun it hit the inside retaining fence,
| part of which pierced the fuel tank |
and the car caught fire. It was much like the accident that befell Johnny Seymour in another car of the same team during last year’s warmup trials. There was some belief, too, that the gasoline tanks in this position may make the Miller cars harder to handle. It has been pointed out, however, that the hard luck attending the rear motor jobs probably comes from the drivers themselves and their driving habits. Although most cars carry tachometers which give the number of revolutions a minute the motors are making, few drivers consult them. Instead they judge their speed by the roar of the motor and by a little slip detectable in the rear wheels that warns of an impending spin. This slip is not noticeable in the delicately balanced rear-motor jobs because all wheels slip at once and the warning margin is gone. Then too, the roar of the rearengine motor does not give the driver the 2ccustomed gage of speed. The Bailey accident occurred just after he had turned a lap at 128 miles an hour, which is believed to be one of the fastest speeds ever attained by a Miller rear-engined machine. His speed was considered
even more outstanding since he was
using a stock gasoline. Most other cars use special blends of fuel especially adapted. The car was one which Bailey had spent hours tuning up. He turned up at the track early last year and drove an estimated 2000 miles in practice spins. . Bailey made his first Speedway appearance in the 1934 race. He was forced out of the “500” in 1935 and 1937 and failed to qualify in 1936. He finished 12th in 1938, but was forced out after 117% miles of last year’s race,

NEW LAW PLAN
25 Freshmen May Be ‘Guinea Pigs’ in Legal Streamlining.
CAMBRIDGE, Mass.,, May 8 (U. P.) —Twenty-five Harvard Univer sity freshmen may become “guinea pigs” next fall in an experiment aimed at injecting new vigor and comprehensiveness into the Amer< ican legal profession. 3 Dean James M. Landis of the Harvard Law School devised the revolutionary plan which would toss the traditional legal education into the discard and substitute a streamline, seven-year curriculum for student lawyers. The program would permit the legal course to be offered freshmen immediately on entrance into the university. '
Their Intensive Course
Three college years would be spent studying history, government and economics with a sprinkling of general “cultural” subjects. Without graduating, the students then would spend two years in an intensified law course, fihally rounding out their education by ree turning to college for a combination of law and advanced social science, Thus, the usual eight-year course would be cut by one year and the student would have a longer period of special study in his chosen field,
Already Approved
“We are looking forward to proe ducing a new type lawyer,” Dean Landis said, “one who sees the law, not as a collection of abstract facts and opinions, but as a vital part of everyday life.” Already approved by the Law School, the plan needs only the sanction of the college faculty of Arts and Sciences to become efe fective. If successful with the first group of 25, the program will be extended to embrace all Harvard undergraduates who volunteer.
