JIMMY MURPHY ONLY RAGE DRIVER HOLDING 2 PREMIER CROWNS

(By Associated Press) INDIANAPOLIS, May 31 Jimmy Murphy, the smiling, boyish Los Angeles. Calif., youth, today holds the

iistinction of being the only driver i In the world to win the premier auto- j mobile races of two continents the j French Grand Prix and the 500 mile I

race over the Indianapolis Motor Speedway here yesterday. This is Murphy's second year as a driver, as he only graduated from the grade of mechanician two years ago. By strange coincidence it was' Captain

Eddie Rickenbacker who gave Mur-!

phy the- checkered flag in token of victory yesterday the same Murphy who rode beside Rickenbacker as a mechanician in the race here six years ago. Some of the glory and also some of the prize money that Murphy was generally believed to have gained yesterday slipped away over night, however. Murphy was credited with holding the lead throughout the race and winning all of the prizes offered for leadership in the various laps of the contest. Bpeedway . officials . early today announced that there had been some miscalculations and that apparently Harry Hartz. another Los Angeles racer who finished second, had held the lead during part of the race and was- entitled to some of the lap prizes. Question Arises. There was some question as to the

authenticity of Murphy's record time, which had been announced as 5:17:T:79. which is sixteen minutes better than the record established by Ralph rePalma, in wlnniner the event here Jp 1915. DePalma's time then was F.:33:55:5J.

Much confusion existed among the Judges and timers at the 200th mile yesterday, and announcement was inade that Hartz had gone into first place. This announcement later was withdrawn, but when the official tabulation was started at the close of the race, the possibility that Murphy Plight have been displaced as leader for a- time again was brought forward. Officials said they expected to complete the tabulation some time today. It was not expected that it would make any changes in the standing of the winners, but it rnisht effect Murphy's record and also the distribution "of lap prizes, which amount to J 50 for each lap. Great Co-operation The Californian was given remarkable co-operation by his pit men. He drove the entire distance, making only three stops to change tires and replenish his fuel tanks. On his third stop gasoline was dumped into the tanks and a rear wheel was changed in 25 seconds. On a previous stop his assistants dumped in oil and gas and changed two front, wheels In 2S seconds. Murnhv knew just what his car was

capable of doing and he pushed it to

each. Sheard clotted-out a two-bagger for the losers.

J. Logan and Reddinghaua shifted I places in the fifth inning and things seemed to work to a much better advantage. H. Logan made an extraordinary catch of a fly in the fifth inning. He made a dive for the ball and turned several soTnersaults before he stopped, but he came up with the ball clutched in his hands. Knittel, the Liberty pitcher, drew prajse for his work on the mound. He held the Eagle batsmen to eight hits

and was steady throughout the entire contest. The Eagles will hook up with the fast going Connersvile team next Sunday in a real game. The Connersville

team held the strong Cambridge City team without a run Tuesday. Line-up and summary: Eagles.

have eclipsed anything in all baseball history. . "Waddell had an arm which, in my opinion, was the most remarkable of any pitcher that ever walked onto a diamond. His speed was blinding, his curves bewildering and his control superlative. There wasn't a time, when Waddell was at the height of his career, when he couldn't place a ball in exactly the spot where he willed to place it.

"But the trouble with Waddell, as everyone knows, was that he never grew up in a mental way. He was al

Although the win column has not been bolstered as much in all the branches of athletics as in some previous years, the intercollegiate competition has been most successful considering the conditions under which the teams are produced.

breaking speed and never making an

unnecessary stop. Harry Hartz, another Los Angeles racer, who finished second, also is a former mechanician. Hartz drove a race second only to Murphy's. He drove into second place shortly after the sixtieth mile and from then on to the finish he gave Murphy a desperate fight to maintain the lead.

According to officials of the speedway there were 135.000 paid admissions, the largest crowd that ever witnessed a race at the Indianapolis course. Although official figures were lacking the total receipts are expected to reach the $500,000 mark. The general admission was $2, which totalled J270.00O and besides this there were extra charges for grandstand, automobile parking spaces and infield privileges. Murphy was the only driver injured during the race, although two car5? were in smashupp. It was all the fault
