Thomson's new car, owned by Art Lathrop of Indianapolis and Coleman Glover of Moline, was due here late yesterday. It was being towed from the West Coast by chief mechanic Bob (Rocky) Phil-hp.

Fort Wayne's shook off a one-coal de- icit early in the first period to sweep past the Indianapolis Chiefs for a 5-1 victory here last nipht and eain a 2-0 lead in the semifinal round of the In ternational Hockey League playoffs. Heavy rains reduced ad vanced sale of 3,500 tickets to a "show up" crowd of 1,610 as water fell a foot deep on the north side here, blocking all primary entrances into Allen County Memorial Coli scum. The Chiefs put all their first class hockey into the opening period and then the burden fell on the shoulders of goalie Cliff Hicks to pre vent further rout by the Komets.

HICKS finished with 30 saves, turning aside 16 in the first period and got little help from his teammates after the opening period as the Chiefs got only two shots on goal in the second period and five in the finale. Bob McCusker and Fddie Long put the teeth in Fort Wayne's attack with two goals each. But with the exception of a few hard body checks sprinkled throughout the game, there was none of the heated exchanges that nearly set off a riot when Long and Indian apolis' Jim Farclli fought for 15 minutes at Indianapolis Tuesday night. Indianapolis, anxious to even the series, took a 1-0 lead at 2:19 on left winger Claude Vinet's score. It was a rebound of center Red Leer's shot and Vinet beat po.ihe Glenn Ramsay, firm" point blank in front of the net.

The Komets tied it up at 16:24 of the period when McCusker came out of a scramble behind the Chiefs' net and tucked in a shot from the right hand side. Ft. Wayne posted a 2-1 margin at as Long took a sharp pass from McCusker and had plenty of time to sight in on the Chiefs' goal before he fired from 10 feet away. Indianapolis' back was broken early in the second period. Leger went to the penalty box with stven seconds gone for tripping and Picard followed him at 1:43 for high sticking.

Withthe Komets holding a 5-3 edge in manpower, Long uncorked a 35-foot shot that was completely screened from Hicks' view. McCusker posted his second goal at 17.06 of the middle period with a 10-foot backhander. INDIANAPOLIS continued to flounder in the third period and Ft.

The car is an old Indianapolis-type i 500-A chassis with a 6-Liter Buick engine under the hood.

The fenders in question look like they came off a bicycle and were obviously added to comply with the rules. Some doubt has been cast on their safety although most of the other sports car drivers appear in favor of letting the car run. TICKET prices for the sports car show are steeper than those for the pair of 100-miiers to be run Satur day, one regular USAC na tional championship event and another open to cars of any engine size. With only 22 sports cars at last count, the field for the Sunday race is bound to fall far below the 60 starters which had been advertised. BILL FRANCE son of the president of the speed way, held the track record here briefly.

He also set some kind of a record for alienating a father. When the paving of the track was completed one night just before dark, big Bill was out of town on business, so little Bill climbed in a Chevrolet stock car and became the first to circle the track completely. He got in a lap at 118. But when his father came backL France Sr wasn't overly that his boy had beaten him to the honor of being the first man on his race track. The Frances envisioned that this might also become the motor boat racing center of the United States.

They plan to run races on a mile course in an infield lake, which was created when the dirt was removed to build up the high banks. Some thought also is being given to bringing two professional football teams here for a pre-season exhibition game to be played in the grassy area between the track and pit lane in front of the Campbell grandstand. Visitors to the track yesterday included A. J. Thatcher, head of the Indianapolis department of parks and recreational; and Robert P.

Fla. (AP) Baltimore traded Billy Loes, temperamental right-handed pitcher, to the Washington Senators today for Vito Valentinetti, also a right handed hurler. The 29-year old Loes has been in hot water with Baltimore Manager Paul Richards since early in 1958 when he objected to the way be was used in relief. The outspoken Loes often has been quoted as wishing the Orioles would trade him. Last season was Loes' worst in his nine-year major league career.

He appeared in 32 games for the Orioles, winning three and losing nine but posting a respectable 3.63 earned run average. Hon. Run lo Angli, HfH'jl. Al tl. lanbatt IJ.
