In former years, general admission tickets never have been available until a few days before the race and most fans waited until they reached the Speedway to obtain them. Congestion at the gates was Inevitable because everyone who enters the grounds on race day must buy one of the $3.00 general admission tickets, regardless of whether or not he already has purchased a reserve seat.

Provisions for the advance sale of general admission tickets this year, however, will make it possible for race traffic to move much more rapidly with few fans holding up the steady flow of cars to buy tickets and count their change. SCHELL, WHO sponsored the cars of Rene LeBegue and Rene Dreyfui in 1940, when LeBegue won 10th place in his first appearance at the local track, has chosen two other veterans of European road racing competition as his pilots this year. Raph (single name Is correct) the colorful Frenchman who drove in the 1936 Roosevelt Raceway event, will be at the wheel of Schell's Alfa-Romeo and Scheil plans to qualify the other car Harry O'Reilly Schell (left) heads a French racing team which posted its official entry fee yesterday for the 500-mile classic at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway May 30. Schell and Louis Gerard (center) will divide time behind the wheel of a six-cylinder Maserati and Raph (right) will pilot an eight-cylinder Alfa-Romeo. Johnny Murphy Sets Pace For Loop Pinmen With 699 can Legion: W.

Holden. 500, and Ray Ingalls, 593, friends Mixed. Doubles List Changed Buffalo, April 3 (UP) The scoring lull which had settled over the 43d annual American Bowling Congress championships came to an end today as teams from Akron, and Gowanda, N.Y., moved in among the top 10 in the doubles division. The Ohioans, Steve Pecellak and Tony Kedasic, fired a 1,287 score to take fourth place with the highest mark ever posted by a team from the Rubber City. Pecellak rolled the first "700" series of the current classic with a 248-232-230.

On the same shift, Ed Corbett and Charles Merk of Gowanda took sixth place in the tandem event with 1,272. I.A.B.A. Hits Fee Proposal; Municipal League Openers Set As Probe Result Teen-aged youths about to be relieved as guards at the Fort Benjamin Harrison disciplinary barracks, fear that publicity they received will cause them to be shipped overseas. H. Ralph Burton, special investigator for the House of Representatives Military Affairs Committee, reported to Representative in Congress Louis Ludlow yesterday In Washington, that the teenage soldiers he interviewed here uniformly feared they will be given foreign duty.

BY DIRECT orders from Gen. Dwight Eisenhower the 425 guards who are less than 22 years old are to be relieved by April 30. Burton's report declared that the use of teen-agers as guards, first disclosed by The Star, had been in violation of Army regulations. Those he interviewed, he said, "voiced no great objection to guard duty." However, they admitted that standing guard alone at night over 50 to 60 prisoners is "hard to take," he said. There was one uniform gripe.

Those interviewed testified they were lucky if they got one day oft in 15, and some had been on duty 22 days without a break. LAC Remodeling Program Opened; Roster Hits Peak With the largest membership roster since Its organization, tht Indianapolis Athletic Club yesterday announced an extensive remodeling and redecoration program already begun and to continue over a two-year period. Cost of program was not announced. J. W.

Stlckney, club president, said construction of a new kitchen, installation of new refrigerators and redecoration of the main dining room already is under way. The renovation program includes redecoration of all individual rooms. APPOINTMENT of A. K. Martin, former club manager, to a new position as managing director also was announced by Mr.

Stickney. T. C. released from service in th armed forces, will become manager to succeed Mr. Martin.

The club now has 2,700 members, largest membership in iti history, Mr. Stickney said. Vole Inspector Fight Carried io oiate uoara The fight between Michael J. Hanrahan and A. Jack Tllson, Republican majority members of th Marlon County Board of Election Commissioners, and William E.

Sleekier, the Democratic minority member, over selection of inspectors for the central count of votes in the May primary election, was carried to the Stat Board of Election Commissioner! by Mr. Sleekier yesterday, Mr. Hanrahan and Mr. Tilson voted to give the 300 inspector Jobs to G.O.P. faithfuls over tht protest of Mr.

Sleekier, who contended the posts should be divided equally between Democrats and Republicans. Mr. Sleekier asked an official opinion on the legality of tho action from the state election board. Maywood Plant To Be Kept Busy On Jet Engines Contracts for Jet engines alone will keep the Maywood plant of the Allison Division of General Motors Corporation in production for a year and a half, It was disclosed yesterday. This was made known after it had been reported erroneously that the war plant had reverted to the Reconstruction Finance Corporation.

A company spokesman said that the plant, still Is undor direct control of the Army Air Forces and, according to plans, will retain the status indefinitely. A movement of a group of veterans headed by William Spenee, chairman of the Marion County GI Voters' League, to investigate possibility of having the government convert the gigantic plant in dwelling apartments, was based on unfounded reports that the plant was not in operation, it was pointed out.

Virginia I Glenn Bretz, Mentor Of '46 Finalists, Out Evansville, April 3 CP Superintendent Alex Jardine of the Evansville public schools announced today the resignations of the head basketball coaches of two high schools, Glenn Bretz of Central and Tom Rea of Reitz. Jardine said Bretz resigned as coach and teacher, effective immediately, after being informed that he would be replaced as coach next year. Jardine said Bretz had been accused by Mrs. Theodore Lockyear, a member of the school board, of influencing basketball players against playing football. Bretz denied the charge.

His Central team was rated with the best in Indiana during the season just ended and reached the state tournament, losing to Anderson in the afternoon round. BRETZ HAD been coach at Central three years and previously coached at Huntingburg and Bloomington. He is a graduate of Indiana University. Rea, who will continue as a teacher at Reitz, said he had had enough coaching. He had directed the Reitz teams 10 years and previously was coach at Jasper and Washington.

Successors to the two coaches have not been named, but speculation has centered on the Biggs brothers Walter and Clarence. Walter has been assistant to Bretz at Central and is considered likely to be moved up. Clarence coached at Bosse last season and may be moved over to Reitz to make room for Bosse's prewar coach, Harry King, now back from service.

BICYCLE ACCESSORIES Steel Wire Baskets, Headlamps, Kicks tands, Toys, Games -STEELE 319 m. TENTH -CHERRT MT Logan And Zabek Join Indiana Nine Bloomington, April 3 (Spl.) Coach Paul Harrell said today that "things are looking up" for his Indiana University baseball team after Pitcher Johnny Logan, voted the Big Ten's most valuable player in 1942, and Ed Zabek, last year's starting shortstop, returned to school for the semester which starts Friday. Logan was separated from the Army last week as a lieutenant. The Richmond senior won five games for the Hoosiers in 1942 and compiled a batting average of .333 in conference games.

He won 12 of 13 games while pitching for an Army team in Europe last year. The return of Zabeck, of East Chicago, who won a starting berth as a freshman last season, is expected by Harrell to considerably bolster Indiana's Infield. ball on publicly-owned park diamonds. "Feeling that the public parks are built and maintained by the funds raised by taxation upon the thousands of spectators and players, as well as the industrial organization and sponsors, we feel it unjust to propose additional fund-raising by fee collection." Copies of the resolution will be sent to Mayor Robert H. Tyndall, the park board and the Federation of Civic Clubs, Howard said.

He added that representatives of the I.A.B.A. will meet with the park board after Paul V. Brown, superintendent of parks and recreation, returns to Indianapolis next week. Officers elected for the Manufacturers' League were Carl Wolf, president; Arnold Freas, vice-president, and Frank Baird, secretary.
