indianapolis, May SO.-(By the AS
ISOLATED Press. "A record crowd of
1876, 900 spectators saw the opening Of
the speedway contests here this morn
ing. The racers were paced for the
first lap by Barney Oldfield, the re-
tired star of the racing world.
Jimmy Murphy, driving special
eight cylinder car, grabbed the lead
at the start, plotting his car around
the treacherous south turn at speed
that brought the spectators to their
feet. Leon Duray, driving his first
speedway race, was second, and Ralph
de Palma, a favorite with the crowd
was trailing in third place. The time
for the first lap around the 212 mile
course was 1:34:64, an average of 95
miles an hour.
Howard Wilcox was the first driver
forced out of the race by valve trou-
BILE on the sixth lap. Murphy con-
tinued to lead at the end Of fifty
miles. He averaged more than 80
miles an hour and was half a mile
ahead of Duray, in second place with
Harry Hartz in third, and De Palma
fourth.

RED" Craig is not popular in Tampa
in spite of all the foregoing recon-
mendations, for Red pitched the ar

mates, the league-leading Lakeland
Highlanders, were present of course
but it was Red who kept the Tampa
score sheet sweet and pure by request
from Manager HARRISON. That shut
out was not the first to be visited upon
the Smokers and like all or at least
most shutouts, it came and went very
hard-for the Smokers.
First of all the Highlanders banged
across a run and the run in their
first time at bat Roderick Gladu start
ed the mess with a clean single to left.
Pat Kowalski placed his friend on sec
ond with a sacrifice. Chieftain Doug
las HARRISON swung hopefully at three
of Hankins' bewilderers and retired to
the bench.
Sir Bonnie Stewart poled a roller
coaster through the mathematical
center Of the diamond. The ball siz'
zIed straight at Iiankins who, after
much slithering about in the mire
surrounding the box, finally got his
hands on it and heaved it toward
Vaughn at first. The runner wasn't
doing anything else but running while
this little by-play was going on and
as a consequcnce-of both the running
and the by-play, Sir Bonnie Stewart
arrived at first in excellent time. EX
actly where the rub comes in is at this
charming spot. Heinie didn't have
more than three or four hours to
spare after taking Hankins' heave
and as another of the various results
taking place out there yesterday, Ro
derrick Gladu skipped in home for the
only and winning marker before
Heinie could get the ball to Nance.
That is the story, children, of how
the Red" plague settled upon Tampa
and did create much devastation
Like all stories there is much more
that might be told but some Of it is
too sad, too realistic, TO be dragged

out by a broken axle after covering
sixty miles. The car driven by Will
bur Dalene burst into flames on the
one hundred and thru mile. The
driver and machanician extinguished
the blaze and the car was Withdrawn.
Murphy was still leading at $50 miles
and was nearly two miles ahead of
Hartz, in second place, with an aver
age speed of 95.11 miles an hour. Up
to that time Murphy had won nearly
$4,000 in lap prizes.
Hartz went into the lead at 1856

make his first stop to exchange four

Murphy was fourth.
HOW THEY LINED UP
Indianapolis, May 30.-Twenty-
eight drivers lined up today awaiting
the starting bomb to send them away
on the tenth annual 500 mile race at
the indianapolis Motor Speedway.
Starting at 10 a. m, the racers began
a grind of 200 laps around the two and
one-half mile brick course. About five
hours and one-half is required for a
winner to complete the race.
The cars from American, French
and English factories give the race
an international aspect while prizes
totalling $4,000, are an incentive to
the drivers.
AS in past years the race attracted
thousands of automobile enthusiasts.
A steady stream of automobiles carry
ing motor-wild crowds filed slowly to
the track from sunrise until the start

AS the cars lined up for the start
there were nine rows with three ma
chones in each row. Occupying the
pole position in the front row was
Jimmy Murphy, who gained that posi-

chine were those of Harry Hartz and

favorite of the speedway crowds.
