No Pole Car Ever Was Ousted From Race
By C. J. SMITH Newspaper headlines read, “Mays Wins Pole Position.” Traveling at an average speed of 130.577 miles per hour for four laps on the first qualifying day, Mays had won the coveted spot of No. 1 in the front row for the Bowes Seal Fast Special.

NOW THE argument enters the realm of the possible and the probable. While it is possible for such a thing to happea, ‘more so this year than any other due to = the many cars entered, it is highly improbable that it will occur. Mays, in traveling better than 130 m. p. h. to win the pole, broke a pole position record that Jimmy Snyder established in 1939. 8o it is improbable that 33 cars are going to be able to duplicate

Thirteen Games On Amateur Card
THERE SEEMS to be only one real possible and probable chance of a car being bumped out of the pole spot, although records do not show this ever occurring. Suppose only one or two cars run the first qualification day, at low speeds, because of rain or mass mechanical failure on the part of the other cars entered. These two cars, which would include the one on the pole, might be bumped because theirs was the slowest qual{fication speed. But it is extremely doubtful that “Mr. Go Fast” Rex Mays will be bumped from the coveted No. 1 spot this year. ‘He's set a pretty hot pace for the boys and his fourth time on the pole.
