Other Starters Elsewhere in the Medford 500-Mile Could Be By KURT FREUDENTHAL Indianapolis (UPD Record holder Sam Hanks said today Saturday's 500-mile auto race will be wide open chase. But he tabbed five veteran drivers as the "cream of the crop." 1 He also predicted that his race record established two years ago will be smashed barring adverse weather con ditions and major accidents which would slow the field's pace. , IOC Rejects Request for Gate Share By PETER UEBERSAX Munich, Germany -UPD- A world track and field champ ionship meet which would ri val the Olympic games for prestige was predicted today in the wake of Olympic offic ials' refusal to give up a por tion of the Olympic gate re ceipts. The international federa tions which control 21 sports had asked the International Olympic committee (IOC) to give them a share in Olympic receipts, since they have rec ognized the Olympics as of ficial world championships and now need additional rev enue. But the IOC rejected this appeal Wednesday by a 32-20 vote with one abstention. The particular request re jected was that a surcharge of three per cent be added to the price of Olympic tickets to pay' for the expenses of the federations. May Withdraw The Marquess of Exeter, president of the International Amateur; Athletic federation (IAAF) which rules track and field, said after the vote that he is "afraid" the IAAF Con gress later this year will with draw recognition from the Olympics and set up a rival world championship meet. Similar plans already have been announced by other fed erations. Although some IOC mem bers fearfully forecast that the creation of rival world championship games might be the end of the Olympics in their present form, IOC Presi dent Avery Brundage of the United States professed to be unworried. Brundage said he was con fident that more athletes would want to compete in the Olympics than in any rival games, and he said it was im possible to cut the federations in for a share of the gate be cause then "everybody will come and hold out his hand."

May Be Roughest "I think this is going to be the roughest race of them all," said Hanks, now a liaison man between the speedway and the car owners. "We have fine equipment and such fine drivers scattered through out the starting lineup that picking the winner is a tough job.". Hanks, who holds the race record of 135.601 miles per hour, also predicted that the gruelling 200-lap grind .could well be won in the pits. "Pit crews are goin to play a tremendous part in who is going to win this race," he said. Some crews plan for their drivers to make as many as four pit stops, but a lot of, the pit strategy will de pend on race conditions and the weather. - "I hope my record will stand," said Hanks. "If it doesn't, that's progress. Bar ring not too many minutes of running under the yellow caution light" and good racing conditions, the record will go." a?
