Valpo, Ind. State lead ICC chase

Valparaiso and Indiana State are right back where they left off last year in the Indiana Collegiate Conference baseball chase. The defending champion Crusaders currently hold a half-game lead on the Sycamores who, with St. Joe, finished that same distance out of first last year. Valparaiso is undefeated and 8-0 for the season including a spotless 4-0 mark in the ICC. The Crusaders already have knocked off one of their gravest threats, Ball State. Indiana State is second at 3-1, but all the Sycamore victories have come over clubs that were not necessarily pre-season favorites for the ICC crown-DePauw and Butler. St. Joseph’s , Ball State, and Butler all are deadlocked at .500. The Pumas, who were the surprise club last year, and Ball State have fattened their averages at the expense of winless Evansville. Butler has split with DePauw and Indiana State. The Tigers, after dropping an opening doubleheader to Indiana State, have split doubleheaders with St. Joe and Butler.

Has busy job at “500” track all year long

By KURT FREUDENTHAL INDIANAPOLIS ( U P I ) - When Harlan Fengler flashes the green light next Wednesday, signaling the start of practice for the 500-mile Speedway auto race, the famed 2V2 -mile oval will be as good as new. Since April 1, Clarence Cagle and his crews have been busy repairing cracks in the surface left by icy winter weather. A few chunks of the track have been replaced altogether, but the overall patching job required wasn’t worse than any other year. Only minor repair work was necessary in the two long straightaways, Cagle said. It was considerably worse in the turns, with most of the work concentrated in the Nos. 1, 2 and 4 turns. Crew of 700 Cagle, who supervises yeararound work in the sprawling racing plant, has a crew of

nearly 70 busy putting the place in shape before practice begins. By race day, his personnel will have swelled to 600 to 700. In fact, he will have that many on duty the first weekend of qualifications May 18 - 19 when, barring adverse weather, some 350,000 fans will watch the trials. The Speedway, built in a 500acre tract of land just west of the city, has more than 200,000 reserved, permanent seats and eventually, more large grandstands will be added. For 1968 only one stand was extended. The South Vista stand in the No. 1 turn was extended by 150 feet, adding another 3,000 seats. Also, an old wooden stand dating back half a century, the only wooden structure of Its kind left on the grounds, was rebuilt. Eventually, said Cagle, it will be torn down and replaced by a concrete stand.
