event.

Oregon State Rooks 101 to 17.

(AP) Pkil Pardee, of Dm 'An

23rd position, for Thursday's 500
mile race, was definitely put out
of the race tonight when ho hit
the wall on the northwest turn of
the track while practicing.
Pardee, slightly injured, was
taken to the city hospital.
As a result of the accident, all
drivers from 24th position . on
will move up one place, and Bill
Undau, Pittsburgh, driving a
Miller special, will take the 33 rd
position. Llndau qualified his car
in 34th position just out of the
original starting line.
INDIANAPOLIS, May 29 -(AP)
A record smashing 500
mile automobile race at the In
dianapolis motor speedway tomor
row was the prediction of drivers
and officials here tonight when
the weather bureau said clear
skies would. prevail through the
17th running of the classic.
Thirty-three daring drivers, sat
isfied that they had tuned their
mounts to their greatest speed and
endurance, went to bed early to
night to rest their bodies for the
bruising they will receive tomor
row on the roughest race course
in the country.
Tiny Speedsters To
Stake Their Last Race
An equal number of tiny speed
sters of only 91 cubic inches
piston displacement and the last
ot their line were under guard in
the speedway garages. Excepting
for a last minute checking in the
morning, they were ready to be
rolled to the starting line. The
race, following precedent, will be
gin at 10 o'clock central standard
time.
The field Is the fastest ever to
win places in the contest. Not an
entry averaged less than 103
miles an hour for the ten miles
qualifying trials with Cliff
Woodbury, Chicago, hitting the
peak at 120 miles per hour.
There were far more entries than
are permitted to participate and
it was a case of the survival of
the speediest In the qualifying
runs.
International Aspect
Adds Much Interest
Several things united to make
the 17th running of the race
more interesting than in other
years. The injection of a truly in
ternational aspect, for the first
time in several years, has added
to its importance. France has sent
Louis Chiron, European racing
champion in 1928, to show Am
erica how speed is handled over
there. With him will be Jules
Mericeau, another Frenchman,
who will pilot an English car.
One hundred thousand dollars
is the purse which dangles Just be
yond the finish line for the winner
and the nine men who follow him
through the 500 mile grind. For
those who start but fail to finish
$10,000 awaits division. In addi
tion the winner of any one of the
200 laps comprising the race wUl
receive $100, regardless of where
he finishes.

Gribble, who was released after
last Sunday's game. It may be
Houk, who played there two
years ago, or Pillette. If the lat
ter. Luke Gin will play in right
field. One factor that may militate
in PUlette's favor is that Edwards
has been planning to shift him to
third when Billy Sullivan returns
to take up his accustomed place at
first, Fleischman moving to right
field.
Edwards isn't sure of playing
himself, the attack of lumbago
that forced him out ot Sunday's
game not having subsided percep
tibly. If "Frisco" decides to sit o
the bench, Ed Cardinal will work
behind the bat. Cardinal caught
a nice game Sunday considering
that it was his first experience in
baseball ot the class played in the
Oregon-Washington league. He
made a good showing at bat as
well as in the field.
The only. -problem about this
arrangement is that Cardinal
doesn't know the YUlans likes and
dislikes as "Frisco" does. With
Barham pitching, that didn't make
so much difference, as the veteran
tosser had the 'visitors ticketed
just, as well as Edwards. Russell
has pitched against Montavilla
before, but doesn't know the play
ers quite jo thoroughly.
In view ot the tight game play
ed last Sunday between the same
teams, the attendance at the hoi
iday game today Is expected to be
the heaviest of the season. It has
been scheduled for 3:15 p. m., so
as not to conflict with the Mem
orial day program.
Salem's American Legion drum
corps, winner of second place in
the national contest last year, will
be on hand to help "drum up
support for the Senators, and the
Salem band also will turn out and
add harmony to the occasion.

Fourth Bracket in French
Net Tournament
PARIS, May 29 (AP) While
the last of her feminine comrades
fell by the wayside. Miss Helen
Wills today advanced to the fourth
round of the French tennis cham
pionship in which she is defending '
her woman's singles title.
Queen Helen nad little difficul
ty in defeating Miss Rath Tap
scott. second ranking player ot
South Africa. -1, 8-3, but an
other Californian, Mrs. May Sat-'
ton Bnndy, was eliminated in the
second round by Frau Friedleben
of Germany. 7-5, 6-1, despite a
gallant effort.
For two brief games in the mid
dle of the second set the speedy
little player from South Africa ap
peared to have found a weak spot
in the champion's srmor. Sudden
ly shifting to a volleying game
after being run ragged by Helen's
deep and well placed drives, '.he
girl the gallery calls "Blllle" won
her ewn service- and .then broke
through her opponent's to draw
level in games at S-alL
But whether the strenuous foot
work and overhead smashing
sapped too much strength or
whether Miss Wills, with her well
placed drives, found an antidote
tor this form ot attack, the Ameri
can began to draw away in the
next game which she tovk on Miss
Tapscott's service. The South Afri
can's excursions to the net were
definitely ended in the short
eighth game which the Californ
ian won at lore on her service
after passing the South African
three times for the cleanest ot
placements.
