Canton Drives His Car in

r INDIANAPOLIS, May 15.-Race
champions of the Nation and
their challengers tramped hard on
L accelerators today in tune-ups for
qualifying trials which begin tomor-
row for the annual 500-mile automobile
classic here May 80.
Rex Mays, California speed boy who
won the pole position with an average
of 120.736 miles per hour last year,
worried with his car, unable to get it
just as he desired.
What was true in Mays case was
true with other famous pilots, among

the race; Red Shafer. who has been
trying to win here for IL years; Chet
Gardner, Billy VIM and Doc Mack

William Shorty Canton, Detroit
veteran, whirled his flashy mount
around the 212-mile course at ll8
miles per hour with the motor appar-
emily in race shape.
The 25-mile qualifying trials must
be run this year on 25 gallons of gaso-
line. The race itself must be COM
pleted on 375 gallons. reduction Of
gallons from the 1885 allowance.
Some drivers believe the limited
amount of fuel will keep speed down
In the qualifying trials. Others are

measure Z feet in length, with body
girth about the size Of your thigh.
"The main idea" explains Allen. rs
to be sure Of gripping these rattlers
at the right spot at the back OF the
head. A neck grip lower down might
be fatal. They are quick and strong
and they don't like you. The proper
grip is necessary before starting their
fangs to work"
Yet we've seen golfers worrying as
to whether the overlapping or the
interlocking grip was the best bet.
when the worst that can happen Is q
hook or q slice. Still, there are a
flock of golfers who probably figure
q slice is worse than diamond-back's

on rather tough customer, Leonard
Del Genio, tonight in an effort to
prove his right to meet an even

It's 10-rounder, and if Pedro wins
he probably will be signed very
promptly for title shot over a longer

The Puerto Rican's lively two
listed style of flinging leather has
made him a great favorite among the
fans at the smaller fight clubs and
it's en- accepted fact that Canzoneri
would rather fight him than Lou

Concentration Is Big Factor.

COncentrdtlOn IS Dig factOr.
THE main quality to consider is one
of temperament for medal play.
'The hardest thing in any big tour
nament," Horton Smith says, sis to
keep on concentrating. This means
to concentrate on every shot you
play, from a long drive to a short
putt. The temptation to loaf a little,
to take a few things for granted, is
always strong. There are many times
during a round when you wonder
whether even championship is worth
all the mental and nerve punishment
you are taking. This idea has wrecked
the chances of more than a few stars.
You must consider the fact that every
shot you play may be the shot that
wins or loses a title. These tourna-
ments are nearly always won or lost
by single stroke. Just one let
down may be the turning point. The
winner must keep on hammering his
way along, and this Is much harder
to do than one might think"
This is quite true. In this field
at Baltusrol there are at least so
golfers mechanically good enough to
win. But I doubt that there are IS
who can concentrate through 72 holes.
No golf club plays itself. Each shot
requires a certain amount of definite
thought. I've seen stars miss 8-inch
puts while thinking of something
else. Concentration means eliminat-
ing everything else except the matter
at hand. It means placing, or trying
to place, your drives. 1t means keep
ing q cool head against all the breaks.
It means definite decisions on the club
to Use for an approach. It means
hard work around the greens, where
30 many blow wide open and live in
a fog of fear.

Mike has missed qualifying year

Mike felt that he had the hoodoo by

qualify-but also to lead the big field

Bitsy is much warmer than tepid

Again the Chevy Chase Club tour

who seems to be going places, thing
the tournament for the Taft and
Sherman trophies manages to do every
once in while. Bobby Brownell Is
on the sidelines today, after second
round licking at the hands of Page
Hufty, but he showed enough yesterday
to indicate just what the boy can do.
The 17-year-old Roosevelt High

whip Russ Hollebaugh, but the yarn
Of the SO is not what was done but
how it was done. His 80 on the out
nine included three straight birds, at
the third, fourth and fifth holes, and
by the time this burst was over Holle-

back to catch the flying youngster.
But Bobby isn't one-course golfer.

The big surprise of the opening
match was Parker Nolan's win over
Harry Pitt. Harry won the medal
with a 72 and seemed on his way to
another impressive showing. He was
up in the first four holes, but drop

charge to go down at the thirteenth
and Nolan hung grimly to that margin
