The fore most drivers of the new and old world will compete for international honors Only one ether race ever equalled the slse of . the Indianapolis race, the Grand Prix of France which has been inter dieted this year until 1930. Among the gasoline contenders, the Trench and Americana will predomi nate. The Trench drivers who will ap pear on the tracks are Rene Thomas, juies oqux, Andre Boulot, Louis -wag' ner, Paul Bablott and Albert Guyot All of the French marvels won honors in the late wars. Jules Qoux fought four years as a lieutenant and Andre BolUot is the French ace, with a count of S3 Boehe planes. He Is the young' est driver entered. Rlokett backer to Referee. Among the American contenders Lieut. Arthur Klein who was an avia tor, Ralph DePalma and George Bu tane who assisted la designing the fa mous Liberty motors, Joseph Boyer, Jr., though a millionaire, enlisted as a private and P. W.

Rlokenbaekar returns to his former scene of triumphs as referee of the great event. It Is expect ed that he will receive the greatest ovation in racing history .. when he steps on the track. DePalma la Favored. The driver who stands highest in America is Ralph DePalma. The big gest bet of the European drivers is heralded as Jules Goux. Burooe's en try this year comprises every racer of fame who survived the war, and while America's entry list surpasses Europes In slse, the Easterners are ex pected to make it np In speed. Goux was the first pilot ever to win a Hoos ler race. Goux will drive a speedy reugot this year. The Ballot team Is being viewed with some anxiety. It is composed of Rene Thomas who led in the elimtna tlon races. Albert Guyot, Louis Wag ner and Paul Bablott Thomas won the Indianapolis event In 1914 and Guyot finished third at the same time All have won on American tracks. aaiuraay ine racers win tune up ready for the start and at 11 o'clock Saturday morning the S3 contestants win be off foe. the fire or six-hour, grind that will require each driver to be In excellent physical and mental shape besides having a reliable speed car. Track Clear Today. None of the drivers of the 33 automobiles qualified for the 500-mile Sweepstake races at the Indianapolis speedway here today were permitted on the track today. The qualification trials having been completed last night, workmen today were scouring all oil and dirt from the tracks, and the drivers were putting finishing touches to their cars. The race is echeduled to start at 11 o'clock Saturday morning and the qualification trials indicate an averaeg speed of more than 90 miles an hour is possible. Rene Thomas, winner of the 1914 race, made the best speed in the qualification events, driving his car at a speed of 104.7 miles an hour. Seven of the 33 machines made better than 100 miles an hour in the elimination trials. R. SARLES WEATHERS SPEED ELIMINATION IN PROMISING FORM Roscoe- Sarles, a brother of Miss Hazel Sarles of Richmond, and Charles Klrkpatrick, both of Lafayette, Ind., will represent Hooslerdom in the 500mlle Liberty Sweepstakes at Indianapolis tomorrow. Sarles will drive Barney Oldfield's Golden Submarine which has been remodeled and built for more speed and endurance, while Klrkpatrick will drive another American made car, a Detrolter. -It Both Sarles and Klrkpatrick passed the elimination, easily grinding out a speed that bids fair to make bothy men high contenders in the five century. Sarles passed the speed test, sailing around the track at the rate of 97.7 miles per hour, and Klrkpatrick passed into the eligible list, going at 90 miles an hour. This is the first time that these two Hoosiers have ever entered against world veterans of the races, but the performance both made in the elimination has placed them in favor. Many shrewd racing critics take the stand that the real race will not be to much a test of speed but of endurance. Speed will play an Important part, but the endurance of the Hoosiers in the 500 miles will stand them in good stead against their European contestants. Itjwill be a race cf superior speed against superior endurance, Sarle and Kirkpatricfc first started racing on dirt tracks at Lafayette, and Sarles was so successful that he was soon racinz In several of the big events at Uniontown, Pa., and California. It was in California that Sarles' nerve first attracted the attention of Barney Oldfleid. an old favorite among race fan-. Barney this year picked Sarles to drive the car with which he has w on more races than any other car on Uie track Saturday. .., . Overwhelming majorities favoring the calling of a nation-wide strike on July l or more man idu.vuu eietiut i workers in the United States are betting received in Springfield, Mass., the -headquarters of the national organization. . - .... . r A ... -1 a . nnl

He has always believed that he could soon overcome his weakness as a batter if given a chance to play regularly. He never had this chance with 'Jw 3iuts. He saw his chance with the Braves, who planned to make him a regular outfielder. But Jim has been recalled by the Giants because of the refusal of Davey Robertson to join the Pirates and complete a three-cornered : deal. .....
