First Driver A Picture Study Ever Selected i As Boss of ARA

-Time Winner Fills Post of Late Harry Bennett

Tommy Milton, the «first race driver ever to win two 500-Mile chief!

Races, has been named steward for the 33d race May 30. Milton, a consultant engineer and manufacturers agent in Detroit, will be the first former driver to return as boss of the AAA officials. His appointment to succeed the late Harry Bennett was announced today by Wilbur Shaw, president of the Indianapolis Motor Speedway, and James H. Lamb. secretary of the AAA Contest Board. Firsj Race in '16 Bennett, who was named chief steward several months ago, died recently in Ft. Lauderdale, Fla Milton launched his racing career as a motorcycle rider in 1609, the year the Indianapolis Speed-

way was built, and took part in|

automobile races on dirt tracks for the first time in 1913. He entered . his first 500-mile race in 1016, but was unable to complete his car in time to qualify. When racing was resumed in 1019, following World War I, Milton made his Indianapolis debut at the wheel of a Duesenberg but was forced out of the running by mechanical trouble. He finished third in another Duesenberg the following year and won the 1921 race in an eight-cylinder Frontepac by a margin of almost four minutes. Leads Field

Victories on other tracks helped him capture the AAA national driving championship that year and he led the field home at Indianapolis again in 1923 after another taste of mechanical trouble

in 1022. His car was an H.C.8. [contracts which will give them
