that you have seen on least one
occasion a tall rangy, black headed
youth with contagious smile. u1l-

This young athlete is Sidney
Beales Jones. Dust one Of the

He is one Of the many good
duckpinnerS who turn in fine
games and sets every week but
obtain little publicity for their feat
because Washington is populated
by so many star~performerS.
Out For Fame
Now Mr.. Jones is out for
recognition and the only way he
can gain it, is to go out pound
the wooden bottles for huge scores.
At present he is doing excel
lently. He is the high average
man in the Takoma League with
11S average. He is carrying a 107
in the B. Y. P. U. loop and a lis
in the Independent circuit.
He holds high individual game
and set in the B. Y. p. U. League
with a 1865 and 392, respectively.
Jones is doing remarkably well
inasmuch as he has only been
bowling for four years.
Won Stakes
Last year he won the local B. Y.
P. U. Sweepstakes by rolling an
even 400 set. He also rolled an
even 400 set in an outside two
ball tournament which is quite a
feat. If you don't think so, ask
some of the first rate bowlers.

Of knocking down single pins. In
fact, he is considered one of the

from the cars collected in pool.
1t was reported by A. A. A. officials
this year that less oil spotted the
bricks than any previous year de-
spite the presence of the two Diesel
oil-burners.
Stubby Stubblefield in the two
cycle Diesel creation encountered
trouble early, but got back in the
grind and finished fifty minutes be-
hind the leaders. Dave Evans, also

Petillo's little Red Lion Special
ran into oil difficulties and broken

was forced to spend much time in

the oval in sensational style, but
couldn't catch the pack, finishing
eleventh. Meyers new car went

incidentally, Cummings triumph
came in his fifth start. In his first
start, he finished fifth.
100000 Cheer Winner
The roar of Cummings motor as
he neared victory was drowned by
the cheers of 100000 fans, second
largest crowd in Speedway history.
After the 300-mile mark, when 1t
became apparent that popular Bill
had chance to be first under the
wire, the huge throng lining the
two and one-half mile track cheered,
shouted, waved banners, hats and
seat cushions and sent up a deafen-
ing creScendo of auto horns as the
smiling chauffeur flashed by lap
after lap.
The man who shattered all exist
ing Speedway records for the first
rs miles in 1888 only to put his car
out of commission did a complete
about face yesterday.
AT the twenty-five mile post, his
front-wheel Boyle Valve creation,
entered by Mike Boyle of Chicago
and tuned to mechanical perfection
by Cotton Henning, was in seventh
place. A pit stop left him out of
the money at the 50-mile reading,
but he was back in fourth place at
100 miles. He held this position
until the 175-mile lap was recorded,
when he had moved up to third.
After momentary drop back to
fourth, he regained third again at
the 225-mile post.
Twelve Seconds Apart
Only twelve seconds separated
Cummings and Rose when they
started their battle at 800 miles,
with the latter in front. On the
125th lap, 318 miles of travelling,
Wild Bill finally caught up with
Rose and passed him on the north
west curve in a dazzling exhibition
of skillful driving.
They flashed around the track
with only a few yards separating
the cars, and at 1926 miles Cum
mings was eight seconds in front.
He increased this margin to 30.2
seconds at $50 miles, but twelve
miles later pulled into the pits for
fuel and a new tire, and Rose
again bulleted to the fore.
Thirty seconds behind, Cummings
roaEed out of the pits to resume the
duel. Cheered by the knowledge
that he had plenty of gas left, he
cut loose with speed galore, and the
battle was on.
Spectators on the curves were
treated TO some of the neatest,
cleverest driving in years as the
pursuit waxed warmer. Rose and
his rival slithered into the treach-
erous, oil-spattered turns at ter
rife speed, never taking their foot
off the throttle. The first record
tumbed at the 425-mile post, when
Roses average reached IO4.828.
against 104.593 held by Lou Meyer
last year. The Dayton midget was
thirteen seconds in front.
Passes Rose on Curve
The most thrilling incident of the
race took place on northwest curve
shortly before the 450-mile mark.
Cummings, Rose and Lou Moore,
running 1928, hit the spot at the
same time, with Cummings on top
and Rose next.
Handling his car perfectly, Cum
migs gave it the gun" and shot out
in front, with Rose right after him
as they swept down the stretch.
