Anniversary Indianapolis Motor
Speedway 500-mile race today.
Swarming into the huge
grounds of the famous race
course, from $4,000 to 100000
persons were here to cheer 80
drivers in what is predicted to
be the fastest pace ever witnessed
at the speedway. The crowd
numbered 10000 last year.
While 33 worlds famous drivers
tuned their machines, mass bands
paraded before the rapidly filling
stands this morning. Leading the
parade were Ray Harroun, winner
of the first race a quarter of
century ago, and Joe Daqson, who
captured the second event. Both
drove the Anticipated racing cars
in which they yoared to victory.
Dick Merrill, Atlantic flyer, took
his post as official starter an hour
and a half before the contest was
scheduled to start.
It was a colorful spectacle when
the pit attaches pushed the racing
cars itno position at 9:25 a. m. All
colors of the rainbow were seen in
the speed creation as they lined
up in relative order determined by
their qualifying time.
Pete De Paolo barely finished re-
pairs to his car in time to replace
it in line with Tony Whitman, Of
Milwaukee as driver. Crank case
trouble also bothered Bob Swan
son, of Los Angeles, who, however,
placed No. 80 in the lineup.

Col. Eddie Rickenbacker, speed
way president and former race
driver, today predicted that the
average of the race champion
would be at least 112.750 miles an
hour, but many observers believe
that his estimate was conservative.

Yanks Set Pace
In A. |. Race

NEW YORK. May 31.-Decora-
ton Day ususally finds the major
league standings fairly we'll set
for the season. But this year is
an exception to the rule.
Only two teams in the Ameri-
can League seem destined to hold
their present positions and none
is sure of its spot in the National.
Only a blast of dynamite could
shake the Yanks out of first place,
now that they've hit their stride,
and it would require something
more than that, plus new pitch
ing staff. to lift the Browns out
of the cellar.
1t still is anybody's race in the
National. The Cubs are beginning
to show their real strength, the
Bees are doing far more than any
body had right to expect, and
only the Reds continue to disap-
point.

INDIVIDT AVERAGES
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1937-05-31

Those expected are Johnny
Pena, crack featherweight chal-
lenger who meets Lou GevinSon,
Washington Jewish star, in one of
the five 1O-rounders; Sandy Nc
Donald, the big Scot who faces
Alexandria'S Bob Tow; joey Archi-
bald, the whirling derviSh from
Providence, R. l., who battles Ray
Ingram, and Ossie Stewart and
Tom Chester, the middleweights
who will clash in the lone colored
bout.
Coincident with the arrival of
Pena Mcdonald, Archibald, Stew
art and Chester will be the appear
ance this afternoon in the Nations
Capital for the first time of Lou
Ambers, lightweight champion of
the world, who is coming here to
second his bantamweight stable
mate, Archibald, and also talk
terms with the promoters regard
ing a future bout at Griffith Sta
dium.
Quarles Training
Norment Quarles, another Of
the invading boxers, was the first
of the out-of-town battlers to show
up, having arrived Thursday to
drill for his hereunder with Cow
boy Howard Scotia bout which
is teeming with interest, and from
which will come the man-possibly
to meet Champion Ambers.
Practically the entire contin-
gent of fighters with the excep-
ton of Gevinson will taper off at
the Eleventh Street gym, where
for weeks Tow, Ingram and Cow
boy Scott have been pointing for
these all-important matches. Gev-
inson has been working at the
National Guard Armory.
The little gym will buzz with
activity. It is the rule there, how
ever, that no two fighters on the
card can train or be in the gym
at the same time.
Quarles indicated that he may
wind up his training today under
the protective wing of his desig-
mated trainer, fat Eddie Ross. The
seventh ranking MIA. feather
weight, and protege of Jack Demp-
Sey, said he would polish off his
work tomorrow with a round Of
COLA game he loves. Bobby
Goldstein, his arch rival in col
lege days, will accompany the
Carolinian in his tour of the
links.
None other than Ray Arcel, the
cagey veteran trainer who worked
with Jimmy Braddock and a host
of other boxing greats will train
and second Mcdonald, Pena and
Stewart, which isn't very good
news to their opponents. Arcel's
tenth round ring strategy, obServ.
ers say, was responsible for Pena'S
thrilling victory over GevinSon
when they fought in February at
the Arena.
Officials in charge of the Police
show expect something like an
advance sale of $4,000, thus as
surfing the success of the show.
Tickets, priced at 81, $3.50, $2.75
and $3.45, are on sale at Turner'S

COLLEGE AND HIGH ATHLETES COMPETE IN d.
PiCkMary|and
T0Win Team
Crown

The District of Columbia track
and field championships Of the
Amateur Athletic Union will take
place rain or shine today at Col
lege Park, Md, beginning at $3.50
o'clock.
Close to 100 entries from the
local and nearby colleges, CLUBS
and high schools together with a
group of athletes competing un'
attached have sent in their entries
Sienifying that the meet as usual
will be interesting and well con-
tested.
Although Maryland University is
a strong favorite to take the team
trophy, having entered a squad OF
Is men, the other local colleges,
GEORGETOWN, Gallaudet and Catho
lie University, together with the
washington Track and Field Club
will cut heavily into the scoring
and furnish some real competition
for the gold medals.
Guckeyson in Three Events
Bill Guckeyson, Maryland all
round star, is entering three
events, the shot, javelin and dis
Gus. and will strive to break three
records in these events. One OF
these, his own javelin record, es-
tabliShed last year when the
championships were made a
regional Olympic tryout, seems
very likely to fall. Bills throw
last year was 2O4 feet 6la inches.
Edwin Miller, who set the pres
ent District A. A. U. record while
a school boy at Eastern High
school. is the prime favorite in
the high jump. Competing Tor
Maryland University this year as
a sophomore, he was the only
Maryland man to win a Southern
Conference championship at Re
leigh early this month. Prior to
that triumph he has leaped as
high as six feet four and one-halt
inches in dual meets.
Miller High Jumper
Miller is probably the best high
Jumper ever to come out OF this
section of the country. Dave
White and Francis Morris, team
mates, and Elmer Babb, the all
round star of Gallaudet, are the
only other men who have a chance
to push Miller at all. They
should at least battle for the
three remaining places.
Probably the most exciting event
will be the handicap medley relay
The first men running the 44O
will receive all the handicap for
their team; the next two men Will
run 200 yards. while the anchor
man will run $50 yards. Catholic
U, is entering two teams, Gal
laudet one, Maryland varsity and
other Maryland boys are compel
ing as the Belair Athletic Club.
This race has always been a bat
tie down the home stretch and
never has the winner been a pre-
race favorite. Each man on the
teams, finishing first. second and
third will receive suitable reward.

runs in four innings in some in
stances.
This surrendering of quick leads
is demoralizing to a team. There
is the element of morale, but we'll
skip that, and 60 into the physical
phases of baseball alone.
Stage Double Steal
If team is leading, a manager
can try stealing a base at strategic
points. He can put on a double
steal, or maybe a hit and run.
When he is playing this sort of
baseball, his team is in command.
But take the other side of the stu
alton. Instead of leading by three
runs, he's trailing by three runs.
A man is on first base, and a
batter hits a single to medium
right field. The third base coach
holds up the runner at sec md
base. He's as good there as # he
is on third, and unless the ball has
been hit deep, the base runner is
flirting with a putout if he tries
to advance.
Three runs behind, unless the
pitcher takes a windup, the runner
can't steal. There are other plays
that the team leading can make
that would be folly for the trailing
team to attempt.
Not Hitting Straight
The Griffs under the conditions
have simply been playing the
other teams game, unable to step
out and do the things that an
alert team we'll equipped with
versatile players could attempt. 1t
has been the case of hitting
straight away with the opposition
able to present set defense
against game they knew must
be played. Small wonder that the
club could not win.
Four of these sudden death de-
featS have been charged against
Joe CaScarella, whose inability to
win this year has been a bitter
disappointment to the Washington
club. CaScarella is said to have a
sore side. Buck Newsom figured in
five of the lose 'em quick" bat
ties. Jimmy DeShong, Pete APP
pleton and Monte weaver pitched
in some of these games.
Pleasant indeed was the variety
in the final game of the series with
the Boston Red Sox in the Hub
yesterday. It was Boston that Ia
bored under the handicap of heavy
early scoring by the foemen. The
Griffs pushed half a dozen runs
over the plate by the third inning,
plunging into utter gloom a holt
day crowd of 10000 fans who
rooted as only Boston Red Sox
fans can root.
Wins First Game
Not only was it pleasant to have
the GriffS win; to have them
smash the letters that have bound
their bats in recent games, but it
was pleasant to have Pete Apple
ton win his first game of the sea-
son for himself and by himself.
Pete's two victories had been. won
as a relief pitcher. But he was all
hot sand and ginger yesterday.
He checked Boston handily
enough, allowing seven hits for
II bases, which strangely enough,
were good for only four runs.
Jimmy Foxx and Colonel Mills hit
homerS.
Appleton did something more
than pitch. Yes indeed he did. He
drove in six runs with a triple and
three singles, which comes under
the GENERAL heading of an individ.
