Barney Predicts Fewer
Tire Changes in Race,
Despite Burning Pace

Among those who believe that, with
favorable conditions. the 1920 Indian
apoHs speedway sweepstakes VIII be
driven in record breaking time, is Barney
Oldfeld.
Oldheld points out that, while It is
perfectly true that automobile engineer
ing has made tremendous strides, some
Of the additional speed and endurance Is
the result of similar progress By the tire
>uakers.
>"Tha American Automobile association
wouldn't let me race ia the first 800 mile
event in 1911" recalls Barney, so | acted
as a reporter for a string Of papers.
In my advance story l predicted that
the race would be a battle OF the tires.
History records that as a good guess. II
would have been a good guess about any
race that followed. and it is stiIl a good
one. though this year I'll not be in the
least surprised if the winner should finish
without a single tire change.
I'm frank to admit that the lighter
weight of the cars IS going to add 70 the
life Of the tires. But don't you for a
moment forget that the boys will have
this year better tires than ever before
Il know this is true as the result Of
my own experiments on several of the
fastest cars at the track To me it's per-
fectly plain that, with a reasonably cool
day, at least one OF those cars viii be
able To go out there and hit better than
ninety, and hold the clip all the way.
Another aid to speed is the 500 prize
up for each lap. That makes the race a
series of 200 separate competitions and
nobody Is going to overlook reward
like that.
Ninety is my predictioh-ninety or
better, and perhaps as fast as ninety

NEW YORK BACK
ON RING MAP

NEW YORK, May 25.-Boxing came
back into its own in New York state to-
day for the first time since the Frawley
law went out of existence several years
ago.
Gov Alfred Smith, in signing the
Walker bill, brought the game back to
plane it has not enjoyed since the old
Horton law days, for the Walker bill
provides ifteen-round bouts to de-
cision.
Under the Frawley law ten rounds was
the limit and no decisions could be
rendered
Boxing fans throughout the Empire
state, and particularly in New York City,
are now enjoying visions of many cham
piOnship bouts.
The legalizing of boxing means that
likely to be staged in Gotham by Jack
Curley.
Under the new law everyone connected
with a boxing show will be licensed, even
the seconds. Five ounce gloves will be
used by all boxers up to and including
lightweights. Boxers over that weight
Will use six ounce mittens
The state will collect 5 per cent tax
and the game will be ruled by a COM
mission of three members.
The Walker bill contains many clauses
aimed at safeguarding the game There
is an age limit for both patrons and
contestants. Unfair matches Will be pre-
vented by its provisions and ticket scalp
ing will be curbed.

HANDLING BIG
RACE CROWD is
GIGANTIC TASK
Thousands Attending Speed
way Classic Assured of Con-
venience and Protection.

Constant thought for the proper care
and convenience of the people who at
tend the race is one of the big elements
in the success of the Indianapolis Motor
speedway.
The rich purse offered and the conse-
quent attraction. of the worlds greatest
drivers and cars makes a sporting event
unparalleled in history, but with all Of
these the 500 mile race would not bring
out more than $4,000 visitors from all
parts of the world year after year If the
crowds did not go away satisfied.
The great problem in caring for a
crowd Of this size is to give everyone
plenty of elbow room and at the same
time keep the army Of men, women and
children organized in an orderly man
ner.
Probably no other sporting or amuse-
ment park In the world has devoted so
much attention to detail in handling
crowds as the management ~ the lndt-
annapolis Motor speedway.
Zach year additional improvements are
Indiana daily times., 1920-05-25

added to give the speedway throng a
pleasant holiday, comfortable as it is
thrilling.
Cooperation of the city and county
officials and railroads and interurbans
makes the speedway easy of access.
There is practically no congestion con-
sidering the thousands Of motor cars
and pedestrians that flow into the
grounds on the day of the race.
The grounds are adequate in size and
the tunnels and bridges and roadways
have been designed to make it possible
for the hordes of people to move about
at their convenience without interfering &
with the rights of others or the race
itself.
This year a new overhead bridge has
been erected on the north side of the
track, which will permit direct entrance
to the speedway grounds by those who
go out on Thirtieth street. 1t will also
be decided factor in eliminating con-
gestion aftef the race Is over, particular
ly at the old west gate.
The new stretch of Sixteenth street
from Indiana avenue to the White river
bridge will also be completed and will
traffic on the present route past the In
dianapolis waterworks and along White
river up to the bridge.
Maj Carpenter has arranged for n
large number of former service men for
guards throughout the grounds and spec
tators will be afforded the very best
protection throughout the day.
The speedway time trials for next Mon
days race probably will start Wednes-
day afternoon and though many Of the
cars are still lacking proper tuning VI
IL is thought that at least three will at
tempt the qualifying tests the first day

INDIANS COME
OUT OF SLUMP
AND MOVE UP
Tribe Shows It Can Be Done
and Saints Are Handed
Beating.

ST. PAUL. NAY o5.-Just to prove that
IL could be done the Indians staged an
uprising yesterday and handed the lead
ing st. Paul club a 6 to 5 beating.
As a result Of the victory behind Clint
ROgge-the Tribe moved out of the A. A.
sal and today was occupying seventh
place leaving eighth place 'fOr the X. {.
Blues to founder in.
Due to tie fact that his team really
looked ike champs in the Saint opener
Manager Hendricks was all smiles today
and he planned to trOt out Jess Petty
for the pitching duties in the second
game of the series.
PETTY ANXIOUS
TO TAKE MOUND.
Jess has been troubled with boils, but
he stated this morning that he would
like 10 take the mound this afternoon II
he felt. right in practice. In case Petty
was unable TO perform Flaherty or Tur.
ner was -to-be used.
Hendricks shook up his hating or
der yesterday and It certainly got re-
suits. The Hoosiers landed on Dan
GrineF's offerings and knocked him out
of the box In the first inning.
They also got after Williams, who re
iieved Griner. though il must be said
that Williams did manage TO check them
after the third frame.
Hon. A. Duke Reilley was the Tribe
leadOff man yesterday and he celebrated
his return TO the top OF the HOosier bat
ting order by getting three hits.
JACK FINALLY
GETS REST.
Ollie O'Mara and Tex CovingtOn each
came through with three safeties also,
which made Jack Hendricks rest mighty
easy on the bench.
The Tribe scored four runs in the
opening round, one in the second and
one in the third, while the Saints got
their markers in the fourth and fifth.
All the Tribe athletes were in high
spirits following the checking Of thei-
slump and they seemed determined to-
day TO step right out after another vic
tory
Three Saint bench warmers, Hargrave,
Merritt and Haas, were elected from the
bench by Cmps Freeman for riding
him following a decision the local outfit
didn't like.
Manager Kelley used Haas as pinch
hitter in the ninth and though Hendricks
protested the umpires allowed the Saint
TO hit.
Winning three out Of four from the
Saints will mean q 1920 straw hat fol
