meet in which he hasn't been
called on to run both the mile
and 2-mile, and what he could
have done on a warm day on a
fast track is anybody's guess.
His 9:04.2 broke his own per-
sonal record of 9:04.5, set in
1851, when he finished second to
Don McEwen of Michigan in the
NCAA championships. That was
the second fastest collegiate q
mile that year-McEwen's 9:O3.2
win ahead of him being the tops.
Last year Cappy had the coun-
try's best with 9:17.1 for the
IC-4A championship. MANY big
meets last year were run at met
ric distances because of the up
coming Olympics.)
Cappy has improved right
along this year. That was his
fourth 2-mile race, and here's
what he's done previously:
Stadium record 9:2O.8 at
Navy. stadium record 9:27.8 at
Maryland and stadium record
9:13.3 at Georgetown. On all
those days he also set stadium
records at the mile distance.
His work yesterday put him
far ahead of those he'll face in
the big meets ahead. Fred
Eckhoff of Oklahoma ASzM did
9:28.6 in the Birmingham Re-
lays and 9:20.1 in the Penn Re-
lays, and Walt Jewsbury of
Illinois had 9:23.5 in the Drake
Relays on an off track. Those
ordinarily are very fair times,
but don't compare to Cappy's.
Terps Dominate Things.
AS for the rest of yesterdays
dual meet, it mostly was Mary
land as the Terrapins won by a
1888 margin. It was even bet
ter than the District AAU meet
of the week previously. when the
Terrapins topped GU by 81

three freshmen who were first

Conference rules, and they &C

Semi-Stock Engines
May Take Star Role
In indianapolis 500
BY the Assoeiosed Press

INDIANAPOLIS, May 7. -
Two or three cars powered by
semi-stock passenger auto en-
gines are threatening to end the
long domination Of the Indian
apolis 500-mile race by special
Offenhauser engines.
George Connor of Los Angeles,
who has started in IL Indian
apolis races, hummed around the
Speedway Tuesday at 134h
miles an hour in a Chrysler-
powered Hoosier racing team
special. That was faster than
about half of the cars that quail
fed for the last years $500.
The only semi-stock in the
1852 race was a Cummins' diesel
truck engine that was given a
special handicap in piston dis
placement.
Russ Snowberger Of Detroit
was the last driver to win a
starting spot in the Memorial
Day race with a semi-stock auto
engine and that was Is years
ago. He had a supercharged 281-
cubic-inch Packard that pro-
duced a little more than 122
miles an hour.
Motor Size Limited.
Connor's car. and a mate to
be driven by Johnny Tolan. Ma
tional AAA midget racing cham
pion from Denver, are limited to
the same size power plant as the
special ur-cylinder racing en-
gines that have won the last
six indianapolis classics.
The Tolan car was used in
Firestone tire tests last summer
with a Va Chrysler engine of
331 cubic inches piston displace-
ment.
Connor ripped off an unofficial
140 miles an hour and Owner
Roger Wolcott, indianapolis
sportsman. Immediately became
interested in getting the COM
bination into the race.
Chrysler Central Engineering
at Highland Park, Mich, built
the engines that made the semi
stocks genuine contenderS.
Piston Stroke Shortened.
The stroke was shortened al
most an inch to 2 1882 inches.
The bore was left unchanged at
3 1916 inches. That gives a pis-
ton displacement of 272 cubic
inches, well within the 274.59
limit for unSupercharged engines.
Instead of the conventional
carburetor, the engine has fuel
lnlectors which squirt charges
OF alcohol into the cylinders. A
short crankshaft was installed
and the engine has a magnetic
instead of battery.
1t also has a racing cam, but
the block. head, rocker arms and
push rods are stock. It's much
closer to being a stock engine
than many of the modified
stocks" that powered some of the
pre-World War II race cars.
Says Cars Handle Well.
Connor, who has hopes of win
ming on May 80 for the first time.
says the cars handle we'll and
run smoothly. He notices the
biggest difference in accelerating
out Of the turns. The V-8 doesn't
give the bumpy surge of the
four-cylinder engines.
The 46-year-old Conner's best
finish was third place in 1949.
Tolan. 34-year-old Marine vet
eran OF Guadalcanal, has been
trying to get into the Indianap-
oils lineup for the last two years
but hasn't survived the time
trials.
A third Chrysler-powered car
has been entered by Murrell Bel
