north end of the straightaway there is a black scar to mark the spot where drivers Eddie Sachs and Dave MacDonald lost their lives at the Speedway. Cleanup crews marched methodically through the rows of seats Sunday where thousands of horrified spectators watched Saturday as Sachs and MacDonald burned to death in their tangled and flaming racers. Scraps of paper blew casually across the track where the track of the seven cars had met with a tearing of metal and surge of flaming fuel. The sweepers cleared empty bottles and trash from under seats. Spectators had fled in momentary panic only hours before when the cars erupted in a torrent of flame. In the pit used by MacDonald,

epitaph was scrawled in white chalk on a four foot square blackboard: To Davy: “I know T a speedway “In the sky “Where brave young drivers “Thunder by “And all who live “This racing game “Must know that fate “May call their name. 1 * MacDonald’s name, number and car sponsor were painted on the opposite wall. The rookie's last name had been misspelled. Parked in front of MacDonald’s empty pit was one of the golf carts used by another crew to run errands about the track. The neat inscription: “Tombstone Life Special.”

Dave Worried About His Car EL MONTE. Calif. UPI — Dave MacDonald, a quiet but usually confident race driver, was worried about the way his car handled on the turns but stayed in the Indianapolis 500mile race because he felt “obli-

gated.”

“This was the first time Dave ever drove a car he didn’t feel was right,” George MacDonald, the 27-year-old driver’s father, said following the tragic Memorial Day crash in which MacDonald and Eddie Sachs lost

their lives.

The elder MacDonald, who j land, watched the flaming crash via closed circuit television at the Los Angeles Sports Arena, said in an interview with the San Gabriel Valley Tribune that “he told me the car seemed to lift and float on the

turn.

“Dave said the trouble was apparently caused by the fact the car was built for 12-inch wheels but had to be converted to 15-inch wheels to meet Indianapolis rules.” said the father. Mac Donald’s car went into a spin ’as he came out of the northwest turn at the start of the home stretch. Sachs car hit his and the multi-car crackup developed.

Sachs' Parents Saw His Death GREENSBORO. N. C. UPI The parents of driver Eddie Sachs watched the crash that killed their son Saturday* over a closed circuit telecast here of the Indianapolis 500 race. Stunned with grief, Mr. and Mrs. E. J. Sachs of Greensboro, along with other relatives, filed quietly from the Greensboro Auditorium after realizing that their 37-year-old son had been killed. “We immediately realized that Eddie was the one as soon as we found out his car was involved in the crash,” Sachs said. “He was always like that. Right in the middle of things.’ The relationship between the late driver and his family was close, even though Sachs left home after attending Grimsley High School and later Edwards Military Academy. The racer’s home was officially listed as Detroit. “He borrowed a car to race at one of these small tracks. Nobody knew who he was then. He wrecked his first car. He was about 17 years old then.”
