r 1 was hot in New Yoric that morning in 1899. Sunbaked air billowed in through an open windowswirling about a 300-lb. hulk of a man who dwarfed the piano at which he sat. It was Paul Dresser, the songwriter. He spoke'to his younger brother, Theodore Dreiser (later to become a world-famous novelist). “How about an idea for a song?” Paul asked. “Why don’t you write about a state or a river?” Theodore answered. ‘"By Indiana or the Wabash River.” Paul Dresser did try. And the result was On The Banks of The Wabash Far Away ... his greatest song. Soon it was being sung all over the country. Later, it became Indiana’s official song. Dresser wrote many hits, including the famous My Gal Sal . But, On The Banks of The Wabash Far Away remains the enduring monument to his talent Paul was bom on the banks of the Wabash, far away. Indeed it was far away! In those days cities were isolated. Communications were slow and uncertain at best It often took weeks to get a letter to New Yoric, for example. But then, in 1877, the telephone began to link Indiana to the rest of the country. And today, you can call New York (or almost any place else in die world) in a matter of seconds. Best of all, Long Distance telephone rates have gone down over die years. In 1927 a daytime, 3-minute, station-to-station call from Indianapolis to New York City cost $3.05. Today, it is only $1.40, plus tax. And service is faster and more dependable than ever, thanks to revolutionary, technical developments from the Beil Telephone Laboratories. And the best is yet to come.

Byron, who is 16 years old and a junior at Salem High School, was announced grand champion by Indiana State Safe Driving chairman, Randy Fox, at the awards banquet held at the Speedway Holiday Inn and hosted by the Speedway Jaycees. Byron received a SIOO savings bond donated by the Indianapolis News; Grand Champion Trophy, donated by the Coca-Cola Bottling Co., and the first place winner’s plaque. Nancy Jones of Jeffersonville was announced the winner in the girls’ division and received a SSO savings bond from the Stark & Wetzel Co. and first place winner’s plaque. Nancy is 17 and a senior at Jeffersonville High School. Nancy lacked a few points of being the road champion. Second place winner in the girls’ division was Rozanne Juillerat of Columbia City, Ind.

Third place in the girls’ division went to Annette Glennon of Indianapolis. For her performance she received a $25 savings bond donated by the Speedway Junior of Commerce and the third place plaque in the girls’ division. Third place in the boys’ division went to Glenn Rudolph of Boonville, Ind. Glenn received a $25 savings bond, donated by the American Fletcher National Bank and the third place plaque. There were 16 contestants in the state finals which we like to call the "Sweet Sixteen.” The parents and sponsoring Jaycee chapters can be proud of all those who participated in the state finals. They were all well mannered, courteous and mature individuals and we in the Speedway Junior Chamber of Commerce deem it an honor to have been associated with these boys and girls. The participants started the day with a 50-question written exam followed by an obstacle course to test the skill of the driver. This was followed by a road course to test their skill and knowledge of the practical end of driving an auto. Each contestant and sponsor was taken for a tour of the 500-Mile Race track and a tour of the Speedway Museum. There was free golf at the Eagledale Putt-Putt golf course and free swimming at the Holiday Inn which furnished suites for the contestants to make ready for the Awards Banquet. Ron Akers, toastmaster, introduced the principal speaker, Tom Carnegie, sports director of WFBMTV and head of Fellowship of Christian Athletes (FCA). We would like to thank Mr. Carnegie for his inspiring talk to the young people at the banquet. After his speech Mr. Carnegie showed films of last year’s 500-Mile Race and of this year’s tragic accident. The awards were then presented by Randy Fox to end the day’s festivities.
