Race Test.
BY VERN BOXELL

With the addition of three quail
fers yesterday, the field for the 500
mile race here May 30 today num-
bered IA. Nineteen places still are
open and will be filled in speed and
fuel tests Saturday, Sunday, Mon
day and Tuesday.
Babe Stapp, California veteran,
topped yesterdays trio Of success
ful qualifiers, plotting the trim lit
tie car with which Kelly Petillo
shattered four qualification records
last year at a speed OF 116.73e for
the % miles.
Litz, Common Join List
Stapps best lap was the ninth,
when he turned the two and one
half miles at 1l7847 miles ar hour.
Stapp replaced Frank Briskn at the
wheel when the Milwaukee driver
decided he preferred a front wheel
drive car and signed up on the Art
Rose Special raced last year by Tony
Gulotta. Brisko found the ole Pc
tillo mount, a rear-wheel drive, too
hard to handle in the curves.
Deacon LitZ, Dubois (Pa0 giant,
was next with an average Of 114488.
Driving the Bowes Seal Fast which
he finished fourth last year he made
his seventh lap 115.800 miles an hour
for his best mark.
After one unsuccessful attempt,
when he was tagged off the track
on his eight lap because of rain,
George Conner of Los Angeles quail
flied the Red Lion Special, an
eight-cylinder car, at 114.321 miles
an hour. His best lap was the Sec
ond, when he ran 1905 miles an
hour. Conner also was last-min-
ute signer, replacing Luther john
son at the wheel of this car.
Petillo Has Bad Luck
Petillo, who qualified at better
than 121 miles an hour Saturday,
breaking two records, and then was
ruled out when his car used too
much gasoline, was the victim of
bad luck again yesterday and may
be forced to seek a new mount for
the May 80 classic.
Coming down the stretch on his
ninth lap, Petillos car threw
connecting rod. The motor was
damaged badly and it will take sew
eral hours Of hard work to get 1t
ready for the race. Petillo's average
before the accident was 1888 for
the nine laps.

IN MEXICO

NEW YORK, Oct. IS 0NSJ.
Somebody must have been
cOckeyed to have started that
ransom story"
With this Illuminating obServa-
ton, Arthur D. NorcroSs, New
York publisher, today told for the
first time the full story Of the
capture of five American bankers
by a party of Mexican rebels in
the state of Sonora.
j. H. Durrell, vice president OF
the National City Bank Of New
York, had sent a messenger to his
camp in the mountains with a tel
egram to his wife, Mr.. Northcross
said. The telegram read:
1--WE are safe at FarnswOrth
Ranch, which is located far
from revolutionary zone. We
will continue to hunt as origin
ally planned, returning late in
October" -
Mr.. Norcross said the five bank
ers were held captive for two
hours and robbed of Is valuable
guns and a number of horses
and pack animals. But he said
they were released; no ransom
was demanded; the captors were
not bandits" but merely "revo-
lutionaries."
"GentIemanly Lot"
And, Mr.. Norcross insisted
though he also was relieved of
five priced rifles-the rebels were
"a most gentlemanly and high
class lot"
He said that General Louis
Ybarra, leader of the rebels, even
called out his 300 troops and
staged a military review for the
bankers-after he learned they
were bankers.
The story as Mr.. NorcroSs told
it in his trophy-filled Madison
Avenue apartment, was as bizarre
as the script for a first-rate mu-
sical comedy.
The strange adventure took
place more than 100 miles south
Of the Arizona border in the
mountain wilds of Eastern So
nora. The Americans involved,
besides Mr.. Norcross, were Mr..

armed men who surrendered with
Ras Halle Selassie Gugsa were
armed with modern Japanese
rifles, together with 113 machine
guns of the same make and $4,000
rounds of ammunition.
These men now are concentrated
north of Makale under italian di-
rection and the personal command
of RaS Gugsa.
They will be attached as regu-
lar troops fighting against EN-

about to arrive from Italy.
Five hundred military prisoners
taken in the past weeks opera
tions now are quartered in three
camps along the lines of CON-

They completed the last 40
miles over a terrible terrain into

Premier Mussolini's son Bruno's
observation plane was fired upon
over Makale today, and the young
flier returned to the army airport
with four bullet holes in his

Bruno Mussolini dove low over

observations. His plane was not
equipped with bombs, although 1t

Halle Orders
Holy War;
For AkSum

LONDON, Oct. Is 0.N.S0 "A
"holy war" to recapture Aksum
was ordered by Emperor Halle
SelasSie as soon as he heard the
news of the surrender of Ethi-
opia's holy city, said the Daily
Telegraph in a dispatch from
Adds Ababa today.
Capitulation of Aksum greatly
affected the Emperor, said the
message, and he tearfully sum-
moned the Abuna, head of the
AbySSinian church, and ordered
him to proclaim a. holy war.
The Abuna was instructed to
raise the largest army ever seen
in Ethiopia to retake the city.
The head of the church promised
to rouse the nation to a supreme
effort, said the telegram.
Headquarters for the entire
AbysSinian army of one million
men, said the message, has now
been established at Adds Ababa,
with subheadquarters at Dessye,
north of the capital. The EN-
peror is expected to leave for
DesSye this week to join the
crown prince.
