'Won't Fight1 Says Sugar NEW YORK (i) Sugar Rav Robinson says he isn't going to fight again this year. 'I can't afford to," says the middleweight champion. "The way the lax situation is it would even cost me money." That's the way Ray sees it to day. He's been known to change his mind.

Bryan Sees New Record In '500 Race INDIANAPOLIS (AP)' Activ ity was all in the garages at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway Monday as 33 cars qualified for the Memorial Day 500-mile race were being readied for carbure tion tests. The field is the fastest in his tory, and favorite Jimmy Bryan of Phoenix, Ariz., predicts a rec ord run of one or two miles an hour faster than the mark of 135.601 m.p.h. set last year. Bryan, USAC national cham pion, will drive a Belond Special in which Sam Hanks set the rec ord. Hanks, now retired from rac ing, will drive a pace car for the start of Friday s race. The starting lineup will stand as it was completed in Sunday's qualifications. The U.S. Auto Club s Central Area Competition Committee Monday night denied a protest from owners of the Hoyt Machine Special, which was bumped from the lineup by a fast er car. Hoyt owners, Fred W. Sommer and hard F. Sommer, ' objected because Bob Christie, who quali fied a Federal Engineering Spec ial May 18. was given credit for a lap he drove before getting the green flag. That action gave Christie a slightly higher speed than driver Gene Hartley and the Hoyt Spec ial and caused Hartley rather than Christie to be eliminated when a faster car qualified Sunday. The complaint was thrown out because it was not filed within 24 hours after the incident. The car buretion tests will be made tomorrow. Avenue. Approximately 35 cars are slat ed to appear on the card and each competitor will be allowed to run under the specifications of his own association. Any type of speed equipment, running gear, tire com binations or full-race setup will be permissible, provided that the car inswers the description of a hard lop, according to Ray Brackman, association spokesman. "The only thing that wil! be barred from competing in our first race will be a street-type car that is complete with fenders and does not have sullicient safety equip ment," Brackman added. "A wide open race of this type will un doubtedly see some new track rec ords set if the boys can stay right side up." Thd late afternoon starting time was picked so as to enable race fans to hear the entire running of the Traditional" "500" at Indianapolis. In addition to the regular pro gram of two trophy dashes, four heat races and an A and B main, the Klamath Junior Racing Asso ciation, a group of high school Indents who have built their own cars under KRA supervision, will compete in three separate events. Special care has been taken to eliminate dust, not only from the track during the card, but also from the parking area and the county approach road. Additional caretaking equipment has been purchased by the association to assure fans an enjoyable afternoon, said Buff Runnels, Klamath Rac ing Association president.
