Race Cars Get
Last 500 Tests

INDIANAPOLIS, May 26 (P0.
- Drivers "buttoned up" their
cars today in final test runs be-
fore the seth 500-mile race Mon
day.
The Indianapolis Motor Speed
way had been closed since the
last qualifying session Sunday,
but was reopened for last checks
on carburetors and other adjust
ments.
It was cruising speed session,
with nobody having any ideas
about matching the record quail
ification run of Jack McGrath
of Inglewood, Calf, who became
the first driver to be clocked
officially at 143 miles an hour,
McGrath, slim-6-footer with
startling white eyebrows, also
was the first to reach 14l in
last years time trials and he
actually had a lap of 1902 early
in the race.
He has started in the front
three-car row of the lineup. re-
served for the fastest early quail
fiers, six of the last seven years
but he never has won the race.
McGrath is quite confident
this year. AS his own mechanic
on the Hinkle Special, a 1854
model Kurtis-Kraft built espe-
cially for the speedway, Jack
knows his equipment.
If everything holds together,
I don't know of any reason why
we can't win this one," he
summed it up.

PREAKNESS
Continued From Page c.

Lightly; Jimmy Lynch, Fleet
Path, and Nick Shuk. Saratoga.
John Wezneski, Sticks trainer,
said today he is attempting to
get Willie Hartack for his horse.
If Hartack. the Nations second
leading rider, isn't available, the
trainer said he would like to get
Bobby Martin.
Unquestionably, the size of the
group opposing Nashua is due to
the fat sums slated for the Sec
ond, third and fourth finishers
in the rich race. Second money
is $25,000, more than many of
the prospective starters have
earned thus far, while $4,000
and $500 will got to the third
and fourth finishers, respec-
lively.
1t costs $500 to drop a horses
name in the Preakness entry box
and another $500 to start in the
mlle-and-t three -sixteenths clas-
sic, second of the triple crown
events. .....
Sticks and Go Lightly both
were entered in the last hour
before the list closed. Earlier it
had been announced definitely
that Go Lightly, owned by the
Roslyn Stable. was out of the
race The colt was third in his
last start at Garden State after
winning the Gotham. He has
earned $25, 400 this year, most
of it in the Jamaica stake.
The obscure Sticks, whose entry
made a lot of race track folks
wonder, has failed to win a
race in six starts this year. He
finished fourth in a Balmoral
allowance race at Chicago's
Washington Park last Saturday.
The gelding, whose sire is Rice
! Monte, is being flown East today
and is due to arrive at Pimlico
early tonight.
| When Trainer Henry S. Clark
announced yesterday that Christ
lana Stables Thinking Cap had
been withdrawn it was assumed
that the field had been reduced
to six. But few hours later Gee
NJ Cohen, who owns a CONNER
cial laundry in Baltimore,
changed his mind and told Mary
land Jockey Club officials he
might reconsider and enter
Chuck Thompson, who finished
third in Mondays Preakness
Prep.
The Maryland colt, named for
a Baltimore broadcastter, was
one of the last entries today.
One of the happiest persons
at Pimlico as the Preakness
draws near is Jockey Carlos
Gonzalez, who is slated to ride
Honeys Alibi. He earned the
chance by winning the Freak
ness Prep Monday when the son
of Alibhai reeled off a mile and
sixteenth in 1:4335.
Gonzalez, 21-year-old native
OF Havana, has hit his best
stride of the season at Pimlico,
riding IL winners during the

st. Johns plays DeMatha
Monday and had hoped to play
Mackin today, but Coach Don
Hillock of Mackin says his team

was given too short notice on
the new date.
Hillock first heard that st.
Johns wanted to play today
when he got home from his game

a stall on the wrong side of the
barn. He did not think that it
would be good to have Nashua
facing the track where he could
see part Of the course or hear
the horses pounding down the
back lane.
When Nashua was led from
the track-side stall to the other
side of the barn, it was an OPP
portunity to get a good view of
the handsome. ruggedly built
colt. He stands out among
thoroughbreds like a heavy
weight fighter among a roomfull
of dry goods clerks.
When AL Robinson, the groom
"a former trainer himself ~
slipped into the stall with Ma
shua. the colt began to frolic.
When he plays. it's wise to be
careful and Al slapped at Mar
shua jokingly and cautioned
him to be quiet. Nashua re-
sponded by humping the boards
sharply as he kicked up his
heels
When Nashua was bedded
down in his hand-picked stall,
after Trainer Sweeney had in-
stalled the wire screen at the
colts door. Robinson tied up d
hay rack outside the door and
Nashua Immediately began to
nibble at it as if he was satisfied
with the accommodations.
Has Had Coed Rest
Obviously, Nashua is sharp and
anxious to race. It's been nearly
three weeks since he has been in
competition and suffered the first
defeat of his 3-year-old season
in the Kentucky Derby.
Shortly before yesterdays first
race. Nashua was taken to the
paddock to become acquainted
with the Pimlico grounds and
then was walked slowly back to
his barn by Robinson and
Sweeney. The acting trainer said
Nashua would be worked this
morning to keep him sharp for
the Preakness.
We did not see Nashua before
the Derby, but he certainly ap-
pears at peak condition now
The big colt probably will be
1-to-2 or less in the Preakness
and we believe he will win like
the odds indicate.

AT THE RACES
With JOE KELLY

BALTIMORE. May 26. Ma
shua moved into Pimlico rather
unostentatiously yesterday and
if plans go smoothly. in less
than two minutes Saturday
afternoon the Belair Studs pow
erful colt will go to work and
pick up one of his more lucrative
paychecks.
There was little to indicate
that the big bay son of Nasrullah
had such an important task fac
ing him as he stepped off the
van with its paint faded. SEEM
ingly inappropriate for such a
turf celebrity, near Barn j on
the Pimlico backstretch.
Nashua obviously enjoyed the
six and a half hour van ride
which had started at 4 am. from
Aqueduct on Long Island.
Jim Driscoll, Sunny Jim Fitz-
simmons brother -in-law. who
accompanied the party on the
trip, explained how Nashua felt
about the journey.
las long as we were rolling,
he was happy. for he's a good
traveller" Driscoll said. Then
he went on to explain that he
was not the trainer and not
the groom, but that he had
worked for Fitzsimmons for %
years.
IT 60 along with the stable
and look over things" he added.
Jim has been very kind to me.
Bart Sweeney is in charge
here. but you wouldn't know it.
you'll find him on the other side
of the barn, unloading the van"
Driscoll went on as he held a
chain attached to Nashuas
halter.
40 Gallons Of Water
There was no mistaking Swee-
ney, a short muscular man who
carried two Grated flve-gallon
jugs OF spring water at a time
without exertion. The water,
about 40 gallons. was for Nashua
during his stay at Pimlico.
There was no mistaking the
Irish-born Sweeney's brogue as
he spoke of the uneventful trip,
saying they beat the traffic out
of New York and also the heat
of the day on the road.
1t did not take Sweeney long
to size up Nashua's home and
decide that he had the colt in
