The woman, identified as Mrs. Willoby Calvert, 936 Indiana Avenue, Apt.

709, was dead on arrival at Marion County General Hospital with bullet wounds in her left chest, shoulder and police said. HER SON, James Willoby, was taken to General with a bullet wound in the left side of his chest. Police said Sherman Toliver, 55, surrendered at Police Headquarters a short time after the 10:10 p.m. shooting. He was charged with murder and is scheduled to appear in Municipal Court, Room 10, to-' morrow.

Revson had worked up to second followed by Al Unser and Samsonite teammate Joe Leonard with Lloyd Ruby hanging close in his Utah Stars Ford. At the end of 30 laps, Donohue had led all the way and already earned $4,500 in lap prize money. Hulme had already spun his Gulf-orange McLaren and came into the pits to replace his tires. Revson had stopped for fuel and adjustments and dropped back to sixth place by the end of 40 laps. DONOHUE made his first pause for engine refreshment on the 51st lap and got away with a 28.09-second stop that saw Leonard jump into the lead for two circuits before he, too, had to stop for fuel.

Bobby U's Olsonite Eagle then moved into first place until the 65th lap when Donohue took over the pace again and seemed to have everything working just plain lovely. Then disaster struck for the only car ever to exceed 180 mph at the Speedway as fourth gear broke and shattered the gear box. Ironically, it was after 66 laps that Car No. 66 finally faltered and stopped coming out of the fourth turn and the Media (Pa.) driver parked it in the grass and walked back to his pits. AL WAS READY and waiting for any such mishap and took the lead for the first time in the day, trading the "jump" back and forth with his teammate until a wheel in the turbocharger on Leonard's machine finally conked out on the 123d lap with Al firmly in control.

Just before his sidelining, David Hobbs of England and Rick Muther of California combined for a crashing spectacular right in the middle of the main stretch with Muther and his car getting the worst of the collision. "The engine let go in my car just as I came out of the fourth turn," said Hobbs, one of two foreign drivers in the race. "I mean it went 'bang' all of a sudden. I tried to stay on the outside of the road and get stopped. "Rick must have tried to stop when I slowed down so suddenly but he banged the inside wall and spun up and almost knocked the front end off my car.

It was a pretty good impact; I remember it quite vividly." Muther was taken to Methodist Hospital for treatment and released and Al Unser and others took advantage of the yellow light for an "extra" pit stop. Concluded From Page 1 track hospital and 10 more taken to Methodist with the most seriously injured being Dr. Vincente Alvarez of Buenos Aires, Argentina, a photographer, in serious condition with head and internal injuries. Unaware of what had happened off the track, Donohue had jumped into the lead before the field reached the southwest turn with 1968 "500" champion Bobby Unser second and pole-sitter Revson third. NOT SINCE Parnelli Jones and the famous No.

40 STP turbine had a race car threatened to make a shambles out of the rest of the field as Donohue stuck his foot on the throttle and set a 170 pace that was too hot for anyone to handle. He was averaging 171.054 after four laps around the 2-mile track, breaking the previous record by almost 8 miles an hour. While ambulance and rescue workers were working on the photographers' stand wreckage, trouble was getting into the act on the third turn. Steve Krisiloff felt the engine let go in his STP McNamara and spun in his own oil. Kenyon then lost control of his Sprite Special as he slid in the spilled oil and bounced into the outside wall.

WITH TWO safety patrolmen standing by, Kenyon stood up in the car and started to get out. Just then Johncock came sailing through the slick stuff and lost control of his Norris Industries Special and locked up the brakes. "All I could see was Mel trying to stand up in the car and the two firemen or whoever they were," said Johncock. "I came swinging around and sliding into Mel's car. They must have seen me at the last second because the firemen disappeared and Mel crouched back into the cockpit.

"I thought sure I had him. If he hadn't squatted down, I'd have wiped him out because I ripped off the entire left side of my car and drove right over his head. He's got. to be lucky to be alive." WITH JOHNCOCK now involved, Mario Andretti came slipping through the oil and rammed his STP McNamara into Johncock's machine. The yellow light was shining through 28 laps before starter Pat Vidan dropped the green flag again and Donohue almost nonchalantly began pulling away from the pack.

After 30 circuits, Ik Blast Hurls 18 Firemen: IT JUST MIGHT have been this unplanned but appropriate pause for refreshment that gave him the cushion he needed to hold off Revson's bid for victory. Bobby Unser had been moving with the speed of an Eagle and had dug into the lap money nine times and after 130 laps, with Leonard out of the show, it was brother-against-brother with Revson and Ruby desperately trying to make up ground. Ruby, who had led for three laps earlier, ran out oi fuel and coasted into the pits but needed a restart to get the engine going again and the crowd groaned with disappointment over his 1-minute lapse. BUT THAT was only the foretaste of the "usual" Ruby luck as, running without a fourth gear, the gear box began disintegrating and finally ground itself to pieces dooming Ruby to an 11th place finish and 174 laps completed. While Ruby was having his problems, Mosley and Bobby U.

were going through their unrehearsed dance step in the fourth turn. "I really don't know what happened to Mike," said a dazed Bobby 30 minutes after their 164th lap accident. "I saw something black fly off his car and he went into the wall. I locked up the brakes and went into the outside wall, too. "THAT'S THE LAST thing I remembered for awhile.

I know I hit it and apparently I went down across the track with Mike. The next thing I knew was someone yelling at me to get out of the car before it caught fire. I tried but couldn't move. I don't know if I finally got out on my own or not." Mosley's G. C.

Murphy Special caught lire and sailed down across the track and ended up on top of Donohue's parked McLaren demolishing both machines. It took a pair of wreckers to pry open Mosley's car and get him out. Gary Bettenhausen came on the scene and stopped his car. jumped out and ran back to the burning machine, grabbing an extinguisher on the way and spraying the cockpit as Mosley was still trapped inside. KRISILOFF'S vehicle was also parked on the grass alongside the Sunoco McLaren and got additional damage.

While the yellow was out, Al drove around the track twice before he saw his brother waving an "OK" then roared on towards victory and the expected $250,000 payoff at tonight's Victory Dinner. After 180 laps, Al was in front of Revson by more than 30 seconds while Foyt, struggling desperately to becoms the first four-time Indianapolis winner, hanging in third ahead of Vukovich and Jim Malioy in the second Olsonitj Eagle. With 10 laps to go, Al had established a new race record of 157.256 mph and earned $13,950 In lap money alone. 4 Missing Atlanta, Ga. (AP) Four firemen were reported missing and 18 were hospitalized after an explosion ripped through a' burning downtown restaurant last night.

Rescue workers began probing the remains of the i 2 -gutted structure for the missing firemen after the flames had been brought under control around midnight. There also were unconfirmed reports that four onlookers were injured by the explosion. Mayor San Massell went to the scene of the fire. "I just can't understand having 20 men in a building of that size," Massell said. He added that at least five of the injured firemen were In serious condition.

"I don't pretend to know the proper methods of firefight-ing," Mascll said. But he said the number of firemen sent into the building "seems like a terrible risk on the surface." Firemen had been battling a blaze in the basement of Davis Brothers Restaurant adjacnet to the now-abandoned Georgia Hotel for about 45 minutes when the explosion erupted in the three-story structure.
