has returned 10 his old love. the Mike Boyle racing team as a mate for Wilbur Shaw and George Con. nors who has heretofore driven for Joe Marks from Gary, Indiana.
 Marks has entered two cars one to be driven by Tony Willman. cliff Bergere, Hollywood stunt man on vacation, returns again as car owner as well as driver. He fin- ished third in 1889 and went out of last years race with a broken oil line but he needs only l86 miles in the race this year to become the 'iron man of the Speedway" and top Lou Meyers record Of 5,064 miles driving in competition in the 500- mile race.
 SuperchargerS
 Mechanically there are an even dozen supercharged motors in this years race which means that their cubic inch displacement averag g. around i82 cubic inches while the rest of the field varies from 225 to 270 cubic inches. Seven Of the cars are front wheel drives while two of them drive off Of all four wheels with the motors mounted in the rear. There are twenty four -cylind- CT motors; thirteen eight-cylinder motors; six slX.cyiinder motors and one twelve and one sixteen. cylinder engine In the competition.
 New or redesigned cars which will attract the interest Of the railbirds this year nre led by the four wheel drive, rear-motor guinea pigs' which the old master Harry Miller designed three years ago but have just been brought to a point of per- fection. Now handled by the expert mechanic Eddie Offutt, the cars were given exhaustive tests in Utah this summer with one of them chalking pan official 500-mile rec- ord average of better than i43 miles per hour. The official 600- mile record at the Speedway still stands at IF miles per hour set by the late Floyd Roberts in 1888. Ralph Hepburn's new motor which features a fuel cooling system will fascinate the experts who also have been interested in the news that the sixteen cylinder Sampson entry which contains the Prank Lockhart motor has given up secret of bad timing which had handicapped 1t in the last two races. The Masera- tis which were driven by the two French drivers last year have been revitalized with American parts by American mechanics and early tests have shown them running with in- creased horsepower.
 The intense interest in the race this year which is indicated in record- breaking advance ticket sale is said by officials to be traceable to the intense rivalry in the field because of the virtual interruption Of the competition by drizzling rain for the final l25 miles last year; the definite improvement in American racing cars which are expected to wipe the two-year foreign car reign with e victory this year; Q re- newed interest In speed and motors because of the Defense program and the fact that Friday, May 90. Dec- oration Day will be the start of a three-day weekend holiday period.

Notes

Notes
 The fair weather last week made 1t possible for all Of the matches of the Lux Golf League to be played during the week, and with few ex- captions the matches ran true to form which speaks well for the three quarter handicap that Is being used in the league this year.
 Roger Sunny Boy" Drufva had low score for the first week with Q 30. If his putting had been bet- ter this score would have been reduced by 3 or 4 strokes.
 Foot In the Bucket Slason has been talking about "grosS" so much lately that he did his best to get a half Q gross in his match last week when he ended with c beautiful TO- His efforts were 50 diScouraging that his partner quit and he had to take on Maynard, who IS replacing DiCorpo.
 AhV uut tecb nHnuiCnppeU Herman Lux considerably, but after he once landed on the fair- way he showed that he certainly knows how to play his shots off of the grass. He and KunkeI will make it tough for most of the teams this summer.
 Dan BlanSheld, won the "booby' prize for the week with 70 but even at that his team won because "Howie" O'Loughlin was shooting them straight and true.
 Piper Cub" CrandaII was hit ting them Up in the air instead of out striaght which made t easy for his co-piIot and partner Ora. ven-Drufva to win their first match.
 The match this week which h holding the most attention is the one between Reid and Kuester O'Laughlin and Bransfield, as its results will prove to e great extent the merits of the new handicap system. Keuster says that he t going to put the "hornS" or OLaughlin the same ac ke did or slaSon last week.
