Hoosiers will vote for Nixon

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) — The Indiana Republican State Committee chose four at-large delegates to the national convention Wednesday and instructed them to vote for Richard M. Nixon until advised otherwise. Business note NEW YORK (UPI)—Goodbody & Co. says the tax hike spending cut proposal, which presumably will be passed, is acting as a restraint on the market, but adds that the substantial cash resources of institutional investors are a potential source of support on any significant price dip. The market likely will hold to a fairly narrow range for the time being with interest centered on merger candidates and special situations, according to the company. Bache & Co. says the market is in a “digestive area” where it is doing some building preparatory to the usual summer upsurge. The analyst says it expects the list of continue to back and fill for the time being with a “valid summer rally” starting in early June. Hayden, Stone Inc., says the market has been performing creditable in view of the uncertainties in the background news, adding that any renewed selling pressure should hold within the 880-890 area of the Dow Jones industrial average should no bearish news develop.

Nixon was unopposed in the May 7 Indiana Republican presidential preference primary and won the support of the state’s 26 delegates to the convention. However, they are obligated by law to support Nixon only on the first ballot. In addition to the four delegates named by the state committee, party organizations in the 11 congressional districts of Indiana will each select two delegates at the state convention to represent Indiana at the national session. The state committee will meet June 17 to choose four alternates at large. The delegates named by the state committee were state chairman Buena Chaney; Mrs. Esther B. Guthridge, state vice chairman; Walter Beardsley, national committeeman, and Mrs. Cecil Harden, vice committeeman. They were instructed to support Nixon at the convention until released by Chaney, who is ; Nixon supporter.

Turbines to be debated

INDIANAPOLIS (UPI) - The rules committee of the United States Auto Club met today and took up, among other things, a resolution from piston-driven car owners to ban the turbines from championship events. But even if therules commit, tee should agree, any ban against turbine-powered machines would have to be approved by the USAC board of directors.

The National Championship Car Owners Association on Friday—the day after the Indian, apolis “500”—voted overwhelmingly to adopt a resolution limiting the big car circuit to reciprocating piston engines. The resolution came after one of Andy Granatelli's turbocars nearly won the Indianapolis holiday classic, repeating the circumstances of the 1967 race in which Parnelli Jones came

within nine miles of Victory Lane only to bow to mechanical difficulties while leading. This time it was Joe Leonard who almost took the checkered flag. But mechanical troubles 25 miles from the finish line forced him to drop out and give up his eight-second lead over Bobby Unser, the eventual winner. Granatelli, after the car owners adopted their resolution, said it was “beyond my comprehension” that they still want to ban that type of machine after it failed to win its first two 500-mile races. Granatelli resigned on the eve of the race as president of the car owners group, saying he could not fairly represent “the interests of piston car owners while trying to promote turbine power.”

The prize fund doled out at the Victory dinner exceeded $700,000. quite a contrast to the $10,000 prize Ray Harroun get when he won the first 500-mile race back in 1911 . . . The additional prize money first started in 1920 and now includes lap and accessory money . . .

But Granatelli, who seems plagued by misfortune, still planned to enter Leonard’s turbine at Milwaukee this weekend. Prior to the “500,” Granatelli had announced he would enter his turbines in as many USAC events this year as possible instead of limiting his racing activities to Indianapolis, as he has done in the past. Granatelli, who lost a court battle to USAC over a one-third cutback in turbine power made in the rules after the 1967 race, originally brought five turbocars to the “500” this year. But his current run of bad luck actually started a month earlier when one of his drivers, former race winner Jimmy Clark, was killed in a racing accident in Europe. Then Mike Spence, a rookie from England was killed during a practice run at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May 7. Car 40, the original turbine which Jones drove last year, was wrecked and retired. But before then Jones had pulled out of this year’s race because he thought the rules changes would not make the turbines competitive enough. Finally, three of the turbocars qualified for the race, with machines driven by Leonard and Graham Hill sitting 1-2 in the front row with record qualifying runs and the third, driven by Art Pollard, further back in the field. Hill’s machine hit the wall during the race and was damaged but Hill escaped injury. Neither Leonard nor Pollard could go the full distance.

Buys TV time

AUSTIN, Tex. (UPI)-Mrs. Madalyn Murray O’Hair, whose Supreme Court suit in 1963 resulted in a ban on prayers and bible readings in public schools, said Thursday she had purchased time on an Austin radio station for a series of programs on atheism. Mrs. O’Hair said she had signed a contract with radio station KTBC to air weekly

programs for at least a year. The radio station, owned by President Johnson’s family, confirmed she had purchased the time and said the programs would begin next Monday. She said the program would be the first of its kind in the nation and would cover such topics as separation of church and state, her crusade to tax churches and atheism.
