RACE BUGS At
INDIANAPOLIS
De Palma Conceded To Have Fast
est Mount Entered In Ninth
Auto Classic.
By ]. L. O'SULLIvAN.

UNITED Press STAN Correspondent.
Speedway, Indianapolis, Ind, May
30.-This Hoosier forum Of speed
today was the mecca of countless
thousands.
From the break of dawn roads
leading to the speedway were jam
med for miles with crowds pushing
toward the great arena to witness
the ninth running of the worlds
premier auto classic.
During the night the highways
we're lined with camp fires of those
who gathered early to obtain the
most desirable position inside the
oval track.
Autos carried representatives
from nearly every state. Some &C.
cupants were tanned from days of
driving in the burning sun.
Leaves from the sycamore trees
dropped listlessly as the sun came
up, red as a ball of fire, indicating
a sweltering day. Hot weather low
cred the possibility of record-break-
ing during the races.
There was great activity in the
pits as the final preparation was
made for the 5O0-mile dash. Ma
chinists tested every bolt and rivet.
Tires we're changed. Each racing
steed was groOmed and massaged
by a squad of experts.
As the time for the start drew
near, % of the most representative
racing creations of two continents
manned by the crack drivers of four
nations, were rolled to the tape.
DePalma's Ballot drew q tremen-
dous cheer as it was rolled to its
pole position, showing the crowG
was with the Lone Wolf" Of the
speed kings.
A terrific pace from the start wa,
assured by the 500 hung for thu
winner of each lap for the first Isl
laps and a similar amount for thu
winner of every alternate lap aftel
the 150th.
The total prize money ofersa
was 500 600, of which a purse o
so 900 was hung up for the winne
and $4,000 for second place.
| Hopes of the American racer
this year were banked on the Dues
enberg and Frontenac racing crea
ltions.
| Tho French Ballot piloted by D
Palma was conceded by most ex
perts to be the speediest car on tn
track but whether it would hold to
gether under the terrific pace an
in the face Of the DePalma ink wa
the question. In addition to tn
Ballot, the Americans we're face
. With the task Of beating IN impoe
. ing array of Peugeots, Sunbeam
and . Talbot-Darrace.
Younger drivers Of the ne,
school piloted their ambition an
. daring against the wise, careft
