The Indianapolis sports writing corps today was well aware that a
light-blue 1947 Nash sedan will serve as pace car for the 500-mile Memorial day race at the Speedway. Such information was conveyed effectively to the scribes last night by Nash and Speedway officials at an elaborate press party at the Indianapolis athletic club. The pace car will be driven by George W. Mason, president of the Nash-Kelvinator Corp., who also is president of the Automobile Manufacturers association and a former dirt~track driver. Wilbur Shaw, Speedway president, will ride the pace lap with Mason as a frontseat passenger. At the party Shaw reiterated that

His statement was in answer to Speedway drivers who have threatened to. boycott this year's race unless the guaranteed prize money: of $75.000 is increased. From California Rex Mays, a veteran Speedway participant, had said the drivers were going to hold out for $150,000. From Chicago, Ralph Hepburn, president of the American Society of Professional Automobile Racing, said his group probably would be willing to settle for a percentage of the gate receipts either on race day or on qualifying days.

Hockey league playoffs while teams
ber of points into the post-season se This plan was advanced last fall and met with opposition from Miller, It will come up for consideration again ‘next June In the
down from the Indianapolis representative, Fans Educated Miller reasons that the. fans have been educated to the present playoff plan and that it will serve best through a long test. “Sure, the high ciub plan would have put us in the playoffs this year,” he said. “But the power won't always be concentrated in the Western division, and sooner or later both sections again will be in
balance.” Miller said he could see no reason for a division of the league during the season unless it is to
‘|determine playoff positions.
“I'm convinced that it provides better hockey all year long for the fans,” he argued. “The players have incentive all during the season to do their best so that they can get a chance at the playoff cash.” Unnecessary in Baseball
Proponents of the six-high club idea point out that no divisions are necessary in the Association or the International league in baseball, yet interest is maintained to the end of the season. Cleveland is seen as a definite supporter of the plan and St. Louis may follow suit. Both «perate independently of National Hockey league connections. The June meeting in New York also will have another matter to consider. This will be the probable re-entry of Washington into the league. Washington was out:during the war but it reported getting ready for competition in the 1947-48 ceason. The Ulines would’ be in the Eastern division and would throw the circuit out of kelter. Cincinnati has heen granted a franchise for Western division competition, but it is not likely that the Queen City club will be ready or #ill have a place to play as early as next season.
