THURSDAY, MAY 31, 1951 [ WALLARD IS WINNER AUTO RACE INDIANAPOLIS, May 31 —(®— Lee Wallard, winner of the 35th an- nual 500-mile auto race at the In- dianapolis Motor Speedway, has made it a driving contest again. The post war theory of competing in the “500” generally was to drive steadily at a speed a little better than previous winning times, mort or less ignoring the competition. Wallard changed that in his first speedway victory. He pushed his hardest all the way yesterday to win at 126244 miles an hour — almost 5 miles faster than Bill Holland' 1949 record. ‘The 40-year-old Altamont, N. Y., veteran treated the big race like & dirt track sprint. It was the fourth straight run- ning of the race without a fatality. Mauri Rose of South Bend, Ind.

Charles, making the eighth de- fense of his crown, won the unani- nous verdict of Referee Frank Gil- mer, two judges and the bored ap- proval of 7,226 spectators in pasting Maxim for 15 rounds. Despite the poor crowd, Charles socketed a $62,147.60 pay-check, hanks to a $100,000 television purse. Maxim, got $31,073 for his losing ef- fort. At the finish, Maxim was a reeling, =+ THE DAILY ALASKA 1'MIRE—JUNEAU, ALASKA SOLONS AT TOP AGAIN, P.C.
