nent agreement is to be reached
shortly. Mr.. Riley also said that
just as soon as the railway COM
pany's proposition is presented the
board is TO set date for public
hearing.
Works Board members pointed
out that the city has worked out
plan for the utility to pay so
much mile a year for the use of
the streets. Trackless trolleys have
been operated under temporary
agreement which provided that the
company pay per cent of the cost
of reconstruction and 10 per cent
Of the cost of resurfactng streets
on which the vehicles operated.
When the program is completed,
trackless trolleys are to operate
over 493 miles of city streets, ac-
cording to Henry B. Steeg, city en-
gineer.

Its Plan Not Later Than
Tomorrow.

Members of the Works Board and
officials of the Indianapolis Street
Railway Co. were believed nearing
a contract agreement today on oper-
alton of trackless trolleys. Although
no indication has been given that
contract is to be signed soon, per-
sons in close touch with the case
expect early settlement.
The action of the board yester-
day in asking utility officials to pre-
sent their proposition to the board

preted to mean that both parties
were anxious to reach an agree

propositions already advanced by
both the city and the utility were
not far apart.

BABE STAPPI IS
FIRST PILOT TO
SHOW FOR 500
Arrival of Veteran Driver
Signals Approach of
Speed Classic.

Ebert (Babe) Stapp, who drives a
rsse Car because ne likes the sound
the motor makes, is in town to-
day getting ready for the annual
500-mile Memorial Day race.
He is the first out-of-town driver
TO put in an appearance here this
spring, and his arrival is a har-
binger Of things to come. Soon
other members of sports strangest
tribe will be tinkering with their
bullet-nosed mounts in dozen city
garages.
Known to his own kind as a pace
driver" Stapp is back for one more
waltz with Lady Luck and another
try at the checkered flag. Often a
flnisher, but never victor, this
calm fellow now has more hopes
than Hollywood extra.
He is to drive one of two cars
owned by Gill Pirrung, st. Louis
Tony Gulotta, another veteran as
time is measured in that business, is
to pilot the other.
Motors Of English Design
Both are powered with four-cyl-
inder Thompson motors of English
design. Their frames are hand
forged from sheet metal, and they
are to have improved spheroid-type
gasoline tanks. Equipped with two
air pressure lines from the top TO
aid forced feeding, and having a
capacity of Is gallons and three
pints, these tanks, the Babe" ex-
poets, are TO play an important part
in the coming race.
They are giving us fuel allow
ance of only 37l2 gallons" he said,
and it is important that we get
complete drainage. Round tanks
will give us that. Since they are
made of two solid pieces welded
together, the chance Of leakage has
been reduced"
Stapp wants to be sure he knows
the feel" Of the new turns that
have been constructed at the Speed
way plant. There was groove in
the old ones that experienced pilots
followed, and the new banks proba-
bly, will raise new driving problems.
Later this week he is going to
wind up his racer for few laps
before T. E. Pop" Meyers, general
manager. After that will come days
Of "shake-d down" tests, aimed at
showing up any mechanical defects
his car may have.
Concrete Adds to Worries
1.-THE new curves look flat, instead
Of cup-shaped," Stapp said. THAT
should help reduce our gasoline
consumption. We used to climb up
a short ways on the old corners, and
this was just like going up hill.
Now we should be able to take them
at the same level"
Since the Improvement, the track
has stretches of concrete, brick and
asphalt. Bricks make rough rid
ing, but the pilots worry most when
they are on concrete. This literally
grinds the tires to pieces, Stapp
said, and a blowout usually means
an accident.
Stapp, who has been in the busi-
ness long enough to have few il
lusions, often wonder why he drives
at all. Like his comrades, he has
thought about hanging up his
goggles.
But, he says. there is always the
chance of hitting it lucky" and
collecting several good purses. And
then there is the sense of exhilara-
ton the drivers get when they "let
the buggy OUT

And even if it didn't keep you abso-
