ONDON, May 28—Manna's easy victory in the Derby yesterday was L sidetracked in the discussion of race followers today for some of the caprices of Lady Luck as exemplified in the outcome of various sweepstakes. James Carew, employe of a Liverpool shipping firm, leaped into the limelight and sudden wealth when it was found he held the coveted ticket in the great Calcutta sweepstakes. He had sold two quarter interests i1 his chance for about $10,000, but will still be able to collect approximately $190,000.

H. E. Morriss, owner of Manna, in addition to taking the Derby stakes, is credited by the Daily Mail with hav- ing the good fortune to share in the rich London Stock Exchange sweep- stakes, worth about $242,500. The win- ning ticket was held by Drummer Graves, an Insurance manager, and G. R. Batson, a clerk, but, according to the Mall, they parted with half a share to Mr. Morriss for £2,900, or roughly $14,000. None of the other winnings was on such a scale as these two big sweeps, the next figures known being that of R. C.

In consequence of this movement the stock exchange people decided upon a great secrecy this year, and entirely altered the form of their tic. kets, calling the sweep a ‘‘mutual subscription fund.” The tickets made no mention of the horse race. and it Irons That Won'’t Dent ROYDON Irons are made of heat-treated steel.

INDIANAPOLIS, Ind, May 28.— Red McDonough, protege and team- mate of Tommy Milton, Tom Alley, a familiar figure around race tracks for many years, and several newcomers in the sport were scheduled to take their qualifying trials today for the thirteenth annual 500-mile automobile classic at the Indianapolis Motor Speedw Saturday. Twenty-one drivers already have proved thelr right to start, having taken the trials Tuesday and Wednes. day so they might not be rushed in the final rebuilding of their mounts. Record-breaking _performances have sharpened the interest of race fol- lowers who already are arriving in droves. Examination of the machines by the technical committee, physical ex- amination of the drivers and relief pilots and other routine was the order of the day. Little is on the program for Friday, all drivers being requested to stay off the track unless given special permission. The public will not be admitted Friday. Hotels are fllling, automobiles bear- ing license plates from many states aa are parked in the downtown district and race talk is superceding all other conversation. Predictions by experts and just the ordinary garden variety fan are that last year's record for the distance—98 miles an hour—will be shattered.
