Turbine May Steal The Thunder at '500' Race
fc Leaped
STANDINGS
INDIANAPOLIS UPI — i Pamelli Jones and his nearly silent turbine engine may steal the thunder from the Fords and Offenhausers in Tuesday’s 500mile Speedway auto race, but Fred Gerhardt predicted today the turbo-charged Offy is the. coming thing at the Speedway.! Gerhardt, of Fresno, Calif.,: has been building race cars since the 1930s. He built 11 for this year’s Speedway spectacle,, and seven of them will be In l
the lineup on Memorial Day. He owns three of them himself. His latest models are not radically different from last year, but he is already working on improvements. ‘Tm thinking of a larger wheel base, a wider track for stability in the comers,” he said. The turbine? It might be the thing of the future, Gerhardt said, but regardless how Jones fares on Memorial Day, he pre-

Establish Award For 34th Driver
INDIANAPOLIS UPI—Andy Gran&telli, owner of the turbinepowarad oar which Pamelli Jones will drivs in the Manorial Day 600-mils auto racs, Thursday announced establishment of a memorial award for the driver of tha 34th ear in tha “lineup." Granatelli said he will make the award at Monday’s traditional driver’s meeting to Belgium’s Lucien Bianchi, whose oar was the last to be bumped on the final day of qualifications last Sunday. The award is a memorial to the late Dale Mueller, a veteran racing photographer from St. Louis who was killed last year when a camera stand collapsed at Springfield, 111. The award includes a cash prize of $500 and a trophy.
Mont Speaks
“The Credibility Gap In The DePauw Line” was the subject of Tom Mont’s address to the Vincennes Rotary Club Thursday evening. The DePauw football coach was the featured speaker at the Rotary Club’s Ladies Night program held at the Elks Country Club. Friday night Mont was on the Indiana Central College campus to speak at the Southport High School’s all-sports banquet held in the college dining hall. Nearly 500 athletes, coaches, parents and guests were present.
dieted the rules will be changed to either eliminate such engines or to make them competitive by reducing their power. “What I’d really like to see is reducing the fuel capacity and three mandatory pit stops,” said Gerhardt- “I think the fuel tanks should be cut down from 75 to no more than 55 gallons so these cars would handle better yet.” Drivers now must make two pit stops and most of them take on fuel, although few change
tires.
The Offys-there are seven in the field-are either of the super - charged or turbocharged variety. The supercharged engines use a portion of the engine's power to force air back into the carburetors. The turbos ; generate even more power, util- 1 izing escaping energy of the ex- j haust gases to drive air back 1 into the engine. “I think the turbo-charger is the coming thing-from the standpoint of economy and durability,” said Gerhardt. Most experts agree the turbo-charg-ers are faster than the Fords in the two straightaways because they develop more power. Gerhardt owns three of his seven cars in the field-those driven by Mel Kenyon, Art pollard and Bob Veith. The latter qualified for his 10th race after only 21 laps of practice. Gerhardt’s only real surprise at the Speedway this spring was the overall speed. “I thought 161 miles par hour would be good enough to make it,” he said, shaking his head. The slowest qualified car averaged 162.543. One of Gerhardt’s ears almost made it into victory lane last year, but Gordon Johncock had the misfortune of being involved in the first-lap fiasco. While 11 can were knocked out, Johncock had to spend two laps in the pits on the restart and finished fourth.

Miami to be Site Of Super Bowl
NEW YORK UPI — Pete Rozelle, commissioner of the National and American Football Leagues, announced today that Miami’s Orange Bowl has been chosen as the site of the second Super Bowl cm Jan. 14, 1988. In the first Super Bowl meeting between the two leagues the Green Bay Packers of the NFL defeated the Kansas City Chiefs, 35-10, before more than 83,000 at the Los Angeles Coliseum, which can hold 98,000. The failure to attract a larger crowd is believed one reason for the switch in sites. New Orleans’ Sugar Bowl, the Cotton Bowl in Dallas, Houston’s Astrodome and the L.A. Coliseum also were considered, Roselle said.
