When the roar of the motors marks the start of the Indianapolis Memorial Day classic and the forty, qualifiers hit the bricks of the speedway for the 500-mile grind, Billy Arnold, last year's champion, will be a favorite to repeat. With but two days for the remaining en- tries to qualify, Arnold and his last year's car have set the pace in the preliminary grind at 116.08 miles per hour, This mark is about three miles per hour better than his qual- ifying time last year. Billy's first attempt on Saturday was attended by misfortune. He then set a pace of 113.848, at the time the fastest rate of the quali- hers, but the attempt was dis- allowed by the officials because of a dragging brake rod which was" not fastened by the assembling me- chanica. The rules state that a car must be completely assembled to qualify properly. Arnold's spectacu- lar Saturday attempt, finished after dusk, was therefore in vain. Out of the field of forty quali- fiers, sixteen places remain to be filled, with but two days in which to run the ten-mile speed test.' The first row in the start of the race next Saturday will include Snow- berger (at the pole), Cummings, and Bost. Those drivers who quali- fied Monday are: Gleason, Quinn, Farmer, Shafer, and Boling. Cantlon, prominent Detroit driv- er, has not yet qualified because of trouble in the front axle of his car. Louis Meyer, former A m e r i ca n champion, and the veteran De Pal- ma are among' those expected to qualify in the remaining sixteen. One of the features of the con- test will be the first oil-burning motor ever built for an automobile race. This car, entered by the Cum- mins Diesel Corporation of Colum- bus, Indiana, qualified Saturday with a speed of 96.871 m.p.h.

HIG LEAGUE STANDINGS AMERICAI LEAGUE RUTH, SIMMONS, CO REMAIN AMONG These Three Stars Take Places at Top Early in Season. Every spring there are a group of baseball players that burst forth 1 in all their glory during the firstI few weeks of the campaign to slug their way into the selected list of first five batters in the big leagues. In nine cases out of ten, no more than one- of these same five menI will be in the same list at the end of the season. Some players are just naturalt spring hitters, and in the summer when the hot weather sets in their work falls off to a great degree. Some are rookies, who bat far above their heads when they first face the hurling of big league pitchers arid fall down later when their weaknesses are discovered. Yet, this year in the American League, even at this compartively early ' date, there are three batters among the first- five who may be expected to still be among them when the last man has been retired next September. . simmions Stands h, "Bucket." Al Simmons, leadifig batsman of the league. at present and is cham--- pionship hitter last year, is one of the greatest natural hitters ever discovered, in spite of the fact that he bats in an unorthodox manner. He is guiilty of the crime of putting his "foot inthe bucket" when he swings at the ball, or in other words, of drawing his left foot when the ballcomes towards him. This is the great fault that most managers try to correct inhnew recruits just coming up to the big time, but it has won everlasting batting renown for Simmons. Babe Ruth stands in number two position among the leading bats- men. Ruth has always been known for his -home run slugging ability, but all too few fans fail to realize that he is a great hitter as well. Ruth, barring injuries, should still be- among the elite of the batting world when the end of the season comes around. Cochrane Puts Pep in Macks. Gordon "Mickey" Cochrane, pep- pery catcher of the Philadelphia Athletics is the third member of the leaders who should still be among the first five when the sea- son draws to a close. Not only a 1 great catcher, but a great batter as well, Cochrane is the spark plug that has driven the world's cham- pions to two straight titles. He is CHRANE SHOULD FIRST FIVE HITTERS standing in fourth place. The other two men in the lead- ing five probably will not stick, al- though both of them are hard hit- ters and have an outside chance providing they are in for a success- ful season. Bob Fothergill, out-, fielder with the Chicago White Sox, has always been a hard hitter, and is know standing third among the league leaders. Fothergill, how- ever, is not the best fielder in the world, and has always had a hard task holding a regular job in the past. Number five is Earl Averill, star center fielder of the Cleveland In- dians. Averill is a steady player, and a naturally hard hitter, who may or may not continue in the fast pace he has set for himself. In his two years of big league ball he has always shown marked hit- ting ability, but never before has he been clouting the ball at such a clip as he has shown this season. Gabby Street Orders Daily Batting Drills ST. LOUIS, May 26.- (P)-In an effort to improve the Cardinals' attack, Manager Gabby Street has ordered daily morning batting drill, effective today. He said the batting practice would continue "until fur- ther notice." The team's batting average toffy was .260. Although the Cards. returned from their first long trip into.r the en- emy's country with a record of sev- en victories and five defeats and still holding first place, Street was disappointed with the hitting.
