SPEEDWAY RACE
TICKET SALES
SHOW ADVANCE
Volume Reported Greater
Than at Same Time
Last Year.

In a recent announcement Of
fcials of the indianapolis Motor
Speedway Corp. stated that current
ticket sales for the annual 500-mile
race here on May 80 are running
approximately so per cent ahead Of
the same period last year.
1t is believed that a substantially
greater crowd will be present for the
10 o'clock starting bomb on race
day than in 1884, when the total
paid attendance was reported as the
best since 1929, because of the fact
that demands for seats are coming
in earlier and in greater volume.
Increases are reported for local
ticket requests as well as the huge
volume of orders which come from
every part of the United States and
many foreign countries. 1t is re-
ported that many veteran spec
tators, missing in recent years, are
demanding their old seats.
While mail order seat selling be-
gan on Jan. IL, box Office sales
opened on Jan. IA. The sales in
both groups will be continued until
race morning, constituting the long
est selling campaign of any major
sports event.
New Ideas Tested
Members of the Automotive En-
CINE Rebuilders are expected to be
vitality interested in the COMPETE
ton, which for a quarter Of q CEN
fury has been dedicated to the i'm
urOvement of the autOmotive indus
try. The members will be able to
see the guinea pigs" of the indus
try in action, testing innovations IN
motor construction which eventually
will find their way into the standard
automobile as hundreds of other
developments have.
The further reduction in fuel al
lowances will be Of particular inter-
est this year. Last year for the first
time in the history of the race, cars
were restricted to As gallons of fuel
for the race. Before the race it was
freely predicted that many cars
would not be able to finish the race,
but close carburetion and skillful
driving brought all the cars through
the race with gas to spare.
Fuel Thrift Shown
The winning driver, Wild Bill
Cummings, came through the race
with nine and a half gallons to
spare, and made the unbelievable
average of 14.37 miles a gallon; a
performance that closely rivals that
Of the high-priced standard stock
cars.
This year the gas limitation has
been further reduced to forty-two
and one-half gallons, which will
necessitate the further study of
fuel consumption. At least one
two-cycle motor will be seen in the
competition, additional fuel being
allowed that type.

BOASTS SLAYER
OF DRY RAIDER
0ne-EYed MoonShiner Kills
Policeman, Wounds
Federal Agent.
By United Prsss

By United Prsss
LEESBURG. Va, March Ia
Thomas Quesenberry, one-eye d
moonshiner held on charges Of
numbering a policeman. boosted to-
day I never miss what I shoot at"
His Iong-tarreled mountain rife
brought the only casualties Of the
Federal governr ant's intensive
weekend drive that netted nearly
5000 alleged criminals.
The decp-seated hatred Of noun
tain moonshiners for "revenoo"
officers blazed IN the breast Of the
bulky. rlustaChiOed operator Of an
Illicit still when he saw a raiding
party approach his hideout.
From behind barrels Of mash he
fired on George Kirkpatrick, alco-
hOl tax unit agent, Saturday. Kirk
patrick dropped in his tracks
Quesenberry escaped. Federal agents
took their wounded companion TO a
hospital and organized an intensive
manhunt for his asSailant.
Clarence McClary, Alexandria
police officer whose brother was
slain six years ago by a mOonshiner
volunteered for posse duty. AS the
posse neared an isolated farm house
in the tangled mountain fastness
the rife rOared again.
McClary pitched forward on his
face-his spine shattered by a bullet
that ripped through his abdomen
with the first blast. His assailant
fed through a rear door, posse in
pursuit
Eut for his mOngreI dog, Quesen-
berry might have escaped a second
tirle. Led by the barking Of the
dog. the posse found the moon
sinner in a gully, covered with
leaves.
As the officers teveled their guns
at him he got up and calmly said:
I'm ready TO go With you"
In LOudOun County jail Quesen-
berry admitted he killed McClary
and shot kirkpatrick. I never miss
what I shoot at" he boosted.

More Dwellings Needed

That the United States is facing
a housing shortage is the opinion
Of Ray Hofford, executive vice.
president of the Real Estate Asso-
citation of the state of New York.
According to Government surveys,
about 100000 new houses are
needed and about 100000 homes
require carpentry, painting and
other repairing and modernization.
Local realtors should get whole
heartedly behind the Government
rehabilitation movement, says Mr..
Hofford.

Enamel Improves Shelves

Old-fashioned hanging shelves of
wood, or new ones bought unpaint"
ed, can be made attractively up to
date by painting them with white
enamel. When they are ready for
use, you'll find them attractive
hung on the wall of living room or
bedroom. They afford excellent OPP
portunity to display the pottery or
china SO much in vogue at present.
