This price would be reversed were Overlin a couple years younger. But the fact remains: he is 31. That's the twilight age for any top-flight fighter, and particularly for one of Overlin’s style—one who depends upon fighting footwork to earry his superb ringeraft to victory. Overlin tired badly in his first bout with Soose at Scranton, Pa. last July, although the distance was only 10 rounds. Soose was given a non-title decision over the champion that rainy night, but he didn't deserve it. On a round-by-round basis, Overlin won the fight. However, Soose—a slow starter—was coming in magnificently in the clos-

Before the railbirds and race followers begin to make their guesses on the likely qualifying speeds this year, it might be worthwhile to review the speeds made in last year's test runs. The fastest qualifying speed was] that of Mays, who won the pole | { with a 127850 m. p. h. pace.

Farther back in the lineup were drivers ‘who hung up fast times on later qualifying days. Kelly Petil{los 125.331 got him the first place lin the fifth row, while George Connor went at 124585 to win the second spot in the sixth row. The late Bob Swanson, in the high powered Sampson Special, was {given the middle berth in the seventh row after doing 124619 in the trials. This is the car that will be driven this year by Shorty Cantlon, The slowest qualifier was Rene LeBegue, the Frenchman, who was assigned to the 11th row after doing the qualifying laps at 118.981 miles an hour
