KINCAID IN NATIONAL
WINS 100-MILE RACE
Drivers Narrowly Escape Death
in Accident at Opening of
indianapolis Track

INDIANAPOLIS, May 27-Records
went down before the onslaughts of
desperately driven cars in today's races
at the Speedway, and the new course,
the only brick track in the world, justi-
fed all hopes of it's constructors.
The greatest victory of the day was
the 100-mlie race for cars of 301 to 450
cubic inches piston displacement, won
by Kincaid in a National in 1:23:43.
The previous record set by Chevrolet
in a Buick, at Atlanta, was 1:24:08. Ill
fortune took this race away from Daw-
son, driving a Marmon. He led the
field from the tenth to the eighty-fifth
mile, and lost the lead by the fouling
Of spark plug.
Kincaid, pounding down the home
stretch, barely escaped crashing into
the press stand when one of his rear
tires ripped off and was hurled high in
the air. BY sheer strength and nerve
he held his car to the track.
In the f1ve-mile race for cars of the
same class as for the 100-mile event,
Kincaid broke another record. His
time was 4:05, lettering the former
record by 40 seconds.
HARBOUR BREAKS RECORD
Harroun had his inning in the ten
mile event for cars of 231 to 300 inches,
winning in SIG, smashing the former
record Of 903.
Chevrolet, driving Buick in the five
mile race for cars of 161 to 230 inches,
won with brilliant dash in 4:41, break
ing the previous time of 5:13.
ALI the Buick and Jackson entries
were withdrawn because the technical
committee had barred several cars, but
the Buick owners consented to re-enter
those Of their cars that met the Ameri-
can Automobile association rules.
Good luck averted any serious acci-
dent today. The steering gear of Bar
ney Oldfields Knox broke as he was
trying out his motor before his first
event was called, and he ran to the
high edge of the bank, but stopped
safely. The accident put him out of
today's races.
Fox, driving a Pope-Hartford, also
had a narrow escape when the steering
gear of his car broke and the car shot
into the inner ditch.
The feature of tomorrow's card will
be the 200-mile race, which was called
off last year because of death-dea1ing
accidents.

D|SCLA|MS MATCH
WITH NATIVE SON
Joe Woodman Says He Never
Signed for Langford to
Meet Kaufman
REMAINS HERE UNTIL JULY
Moran Reduces to 1876 Pounds
and Gets Down to Regu-
lar Workout
REMAINS HERE UNTIL July

While the fans up in Frisco are try
ing to figure out the possibilities of
the match between Sam Langford and
Al Faufmann that Louis Blot thinks he
has corralled, Joe Woodman and Sam
are having the time OF their lives down
here by taking nice little vacation
and occasionally talking with Manager
McCarey about their local engagements
during the month of June. Telegraphic
advices from the north are to the eff
feet that Blot is waxing wroth because
Woodman and Sam came to Los Ange-
les instead of proceeding direct to
Frisco and starting training for the
scrap that Blot has scheduled for June
1s. He even is getting more angry
because Joe and Sam are tarrying mere
and refuse to answer his telegrafns.
According to Woodman, Blot and the
others interested are going to lot of
unnecessary worry about the proposed
match. Joe says there Is no match on
with Kaufmann that he knows of, that
he never has signed any articles and,
further. that he does not propose to
send Sammy to Frisco to fight until
after the big scrap of July 4. That
ends 1t, as Joe generally says what he
thinks and thinks before he says 1t, so
that it always is final with him. Well,
we do not care down here, as Sam is
one of the best cards offered here In
many months and McCarey can scrape
up at least a pair of opponents for Sam
before July A.
Sam is scheduled to whip the winner
of the Ferguson Burns engagement
along about June IL or Is, and after he
has enjoyed his vacation Il bit longer
he will get down to training for that
fight. Sam is no fool, and his man
ager hardly rates with the sucker
game, so it looks like the pair would
stick here until after the big fight.
McCarey was first of the coast pro-
moters to realize the real value of
I.angford as a drawing card and has
kept him pretty busy since, as well
as putting many a nice shiny piece of
silver into Sans bank roll. Sam ma
turally feels a little moro at home here
than elsewhere, and nobody can blame
him for preferring to fight here.
CROWDS SEE SANDY WORK
One of the largest crowds that ever
attended a weekday workout of a
fighter In this portion of the country
watched the big Bostonian, Sandy Fer
guson, go through his PAGES yesterday
at Doyles Southside club. Jack
Doyle, astute business man. prevailed
upon Sandy to postpone his afternoon
workout until after the ball game. and
as a result, fully 1000 fans, with quite
a sprinkling of women, crowded into
the grand" stands about the open air
ring to see Sandy perform.
Sandy tickled them by winding up
an hours work with eight rounds of
fighting-no boxing in these bouts
taking on Arthur Collins for four ses-
sions and Young McLain for a similar
number Sandy polished them off with
ease and dispatch and showed the big
crowd what sort of a punch he has.
Los Angeles herald., 1910-05-28

This workout wound up a strenuous
day for him, as he took an extended
hike on the highway in the morning
and played handball, worked with the
pulleys and weights and went through
various gymnasium exercises before
taking on his sparring partners. Sandy
says his wind is improving fast and
does not bother him any more. That
he will be able to go the full ten rounds
at lightning pace II the full limit is
required looks certain now, but ne pre-
diets that he will win in half the
limit.
Jack Burns is going along nicely
down at Venice and is getting into that
good condition that he feels is neces-
sary for him to beat the big Bostonian.
He is training for speed, as he expects
to use his speed and cleverness in
helping him to land some of his man
killing punches. Burns will weigh be-
tween 100 and 1876 pounds when he en-
ters the ring and will be giving away
fifteen to twenty-five pounds to Fergu-
son. who will not be lighter than 215
pounds. With both fighters keyed up
to their best fighting condition, it looks
like a whirlwind fight between two ter
rifle sluggers who have made a rep
with their punches.
MORAN DOWN TO 1875 POUNDS
Reports from the training quarters
of owen Moran at Venice are to the
effect that the Britisher Is working
regularly now and that he has re-
duced to 126 pounds, which assures
him that he will be able to make the
required 124 pounds for his scrap with
frankie Conley. Moran boxed six
rounds yesterday as the windup to his
daily routine.
Conley is pegging away like a good
fellow out at Doyle's camp and will
be in the best condition of his career
when he faces Moran, and he viii be
just as confident of winning as he ever
was in his life. Frankie Is no dreamer
and believes in working himself into
condition to make hard fight, regard
less of what he thinks of the other
fellows chances. He wants to go into
the ring at about 122 pounds and still
be in perfect condition.
His efforts thus far have been most
satisfactory to him and he Is getting
as hard as a piece of steel, at the
same time developing his punch and
speed. He has a full staff OF assist
ants to help him and boxes with VIII
lie Mack, Marty Kane and Kid Cleve-
land, every day. He did ten rounds
with these boys yesterday for the edl-
fication of the large crowd that saw
him work.
Matchmaker Hancock yesterday
matched Young Rivers and Martln
T,eahv for q ten-round preliminary TO
the Conley- Moran scrap. This pair
will make 122 pounds at 8 o'clock, ana
they should put up slashing oattle
all the way. Leahy won his last out
bv the knockout route, while Rivers
has been winning regularly ana snow
ing an awful punch In every triai.
Manager Joe Conley will take Marty
Kane to San Diego tomorrow night 10
finish his training there Tor the
twenty-round scrap June with Gene
McGovern. Kane had McjoVerii
1,hinned easily in their last battle un-
IN he broke his right wrist. but even
with this handicap hey stayed to the
end of the bout and made a great
showing, despite that he only had MS
left hand in commission.
