SPORTS OF STAR CAR DRIVERS INFAST TIME TRIAL Thirty-Four. Machines Qualify for 500-Mile Auto Race at Indianapolis. RACE IN BLISTERING HEAT More Machines to Get Tryout and Officials Fear for Big Field. Indianapolis, May 29.—Thirty four cars qualified to-day, two were withdrawn and ten remain to make the elimination speed trials for the 500-mile automobile race to be held here on Memorial day. Special qualification tests are being given these ten remaining cars today. It now seems certain that there will be more than forty starters in the big race. The large size of the field of starters 'is giving the speedway managers more concern than they are willing to admit. In this con- nection practical starting with a field of a dozen cars was held on the track Saturday under the direction of Carl Fisherand other spedway officials. The largest field ever before started on the Indiana- speedway officials. The largest field six cars. With this number largely increased the chantes for accidents are made manifold. Raid The Farmhouses The drivers who qualified did so under a blistering sun that burned their faces and parched their lips to painful degree. Unable to secure other satisfactory head protection several drivers made raids on farm- houses near the grounds and re- turned with blue gingham sunbon- nets of the day sailed around the speedway in dizzy fashion. With more than - ten thousand visitors at the track and the cafes on the grounds unopened, farm- houses within a radius of several miles became extremely popular with the hungry, thirsty throngs. Fried chicken and iced milk served under the trees was the order of the day, and many a thrifty housewife reaped a harvest before nightfall. The following officials “‘of the American Automobile = Association directed the qualification trials: S. M. Butler, chairman of the racing board; A. R. Pardington, referee; C. H. Warner, timer, and Fred Wagner, starter. Not Told of Time Made. The drivers of the various cars were not told of the time made, nor were they apprised of the distance to be covered to qualify. - Each car was sent around but one lap, and dur- ing that lap was required to attain a speed of not less than seventy- five miles an hour. The official took the time at a certain half-mile stretch of the two and on-half-mile course. The only announcement was made when a car had qualified. Louis Chevrolet, driving a Buick, is said to have driven the fastest round of the day.’ Chevrolet was going a 100-mile-an-hour clip when he finished his trial. He pulled up smiling and said the course was in the best possible condition. 1 Criticising Dad. “An old man in Missouri tried to commit suicide by banging himself with a blind bridle,” said Champ Clark. “His son cut him down just in time. “When the son cut him down and brought him to the old man complain ed feebly: “‘It ain’t right, Henry: you've kept your old father out of heaven. “‘You'd cut a fine figure in heav en looking through a blind bridle wouldn't vou? retorted the =on " friends there, Masten's Orchestra The Popular Store Stop and think before you drink, Then go to Netzer's Soda Fountain.

Gonvick, Minn.,, May 29.—(Daily Pioneer Special Service.)—In one of the most exciting games of the sea- son the “Clearbrook Cubs” went down to defeat at the hands of the Gonvick baseball team by a score of 18 to 2. This makes the second game play- ed between the teams, Gonvick win- ning both games. The main fea- tures of the game being the battery work of the Gonvick team by Ness and Clark, Ness allowing only seven safe hits and striking out twelve men. Thjs coupled with the heavy batting of the team, in which they scored 22 hits and only 4 strike outs, stunning the Clearbrook boys and they made hopeless attempts to keep this record down by using three dif- ferent pitchers and catchers, muster- ing into service at least 15 men in all.

The latter, a gaunt, stern faced female, was bullying the meek little fellow, who trudged just in front of her with downcast head. Suddenly the woman, turning, saw a bull racing down the road behind them. She quickly took refuge in the hedge, but her companion, unconscious of aught but his woes; kept on his way. The bull caught up to him and sent bim spinning into a muddy ditch, then con tinued on its wild career. As the woe begone figure crawled out of the mire he saw his better half coming toward him. Plucking up a little spirit, he whimpered, “M-M-Maria, If you hit me Uke that a-g-g-galn you'll really get my temper up, so I warn vou."
