"The race is tomorrow. Why run 50 miles off the car now when we might need it late in the race." Apparently holding similar opinions were the news of the Kilter Quetn Special No. 19 to be driven by Roger Ward of LOJ Angele. and the Central Kxeavating Special No, HI to be driven bv Kddie Johnson of Cuyabaga Kails, O.

The alternate tins year is Kildio Sachs of (ireensboni, N.C. in the Hay Heady Special. Perhaps significantly, Sachs has been on the AAA-t'SAC "list" because of a speech he once made at a mooting.

TM1 AMERICAN A Racing Writers and Broadcast -ers Association held its first annual meeting yesterday just before the drivers' meeting and decided Id petition die Speedway formally for hotter press quarters before the next "300." Writers and broadcasters now are crowded duriiii; the practice period into a liny CUblclc under the pit parquet seats which is a virtual madhouse during most of May.

They need some type of adequate quarters within the garage area enclosure. The gorup of racing writers and nnkemen also decided to take applications or new members for consideration by the hoard of governors and to delay voting on a racing "Man of the Yeai" until after the group has been incorporated. ANTON II I ft .1 Speedw ay ow nei read to the drivers' meeting telegrams wishing the drivers well from Mrs. Hill Vtikovieh and Mrs. Wait Faulkner, both of whose husbands were killed in racing accidents.

But a couple of gentlemen who have done and are doing a lot for the het torment of auto racing received a tribute and a gift which were newsworthy yesterday at the annual drivers' meeting in the Pagoda yard. The first went iO Duane Carter, competition director of the United States Auto Club, ami was a simple hut touching one After Carter had finished a brief speech, all of the driver sitting in tical rows according to their starting positions stood up in a silent vote of confidence. Carter had just related that t'SAC had weathered plenty of giowing pains, had admitted that he had made some mistakes and had ronlided that several times ho had been on the verge of quitting the fledgling orgarization. But, ho emphasized he planned to keep on tring and to get the job done. This is the kind of frank and honest talk that raring men like to hear and hey IfMWOd Carter that they're hacking up him and the new racing group l(n per cent.

I-ongtime Speedway observers could remember only one other man who over was given the "stand up" tribute by the starting field at the meeting. That was the late K. I Pop) Myers, Speedway vice-president and "Grand Old Man." The second of yesterday's tributes went to Raymond Firestone, head of the Firestone Tlr Rubber which makes the tiros for all the Speedway cars It was in the form of a plaque which was paid for by a collection from among the ranks of the drivers and was presented to Firestone by Hon Sweikert, winner of the 19.15 race. It was proseutod "in appreciation and gratitude for many contributions to racing." The Firestone Co. each year after the race stages an elaborate series of tire tests and as a result designs new tires for the next year's speed classic.

Kas. A big first inning and Hank Aguirrc's best mound performance of the season last night gave the Indianapolis Indians a 7-2 decision over Wichita. Aguirre limited the Braves to two hits, giving Wichita a total of five bingles in the two tilts played here thus far in this series. It was the first time in seven games that an Indianaolis slabman has gone the route. Aguirre himself accomplished that feat May 20 at Louisville.

Stan Paw loski clouted a bases-loaded home run in the first inning to got the Tribe off to a running start. SOUTHPAW Che! Nichols. 1931 National League Rookie of the Year, made his first Wichita start and the first four Tribesmen to bat reached base. Larry Raines' single past short was followed by walks to Joe Alto-helli and Rill Harrpll. Dave Pope singled to right center for one run and Pavvloski then slammed the hall over the fence at the 345-foot mark, the first 1956 homer with three on for an Indianapolis player.

II was Pawloski's seventh homer of the season, high for a Tribesman, and his first in 17 days. Don Bollweg singled for the Braves with one out in the second but Vince Garcia's hopper to Pavvloski resulted in a double play. Although Don McMahon was busy in the bullpen during the first frame. Manager George Selkirk didn't remove Nichols. The pitcher who went to the Majors from the American Association after the 1950 season retired 12 consecutive batters.
