FRIDAY, MAY 23, 1980- THE INDIANAPOLIS STAR PAGE 39 Crew Bigelow's Preakness Hearing Set For June 2nd Takes 1st Prize Kftj PASS Bi Speeatj Staff Baltimore (UPI) The Maryland thoroughbred racing board will hold a hearing June 2 on an appeal filed by the owners of Genuine Risk challenging the dismissal of a foul claim against Codex in last Saturday's Preakness, officials said Thursday. The thoroughbred board of the Maryland Racing Commission said the hearing will be held at Pimlico Race Course, where the track stewards and attorneys for Bert and Diana Firestone will review an alleged incident at the top of the stretch that the Firestones say cost their Kentucky Derby winner a chance at winning the second leg of the Triple Crown. Genuine Risk's jockey, Jacinto Va-squez, said Codex bumped his horse as the field came around the far turn. He also said Codex's rider. Angel Cordero, struck Genuine Risk with his whip.

The stewards deliberated 10 minutes after the race before dismissing the foul claim. The Firestones took the decision calmly Saturday, but announced on Monday they would appeal. THE COMMISSION has held up distribution of the $250,600 purse until a decision is made. But wagering results will not be involved, it ruled. Meanwhile, the state attorney general's office announced it is investigating a comment made by a member of the five-man thoroughbred board of the Maryland Racing Commission that could lead to his disqualification on the Preakness ruling.

Tom Bigelow's crew, headed by Jim Lindholm and including Bob Van Note, Joe Delp and Bill Englund, walked away with the $10,000 first prize with a razor's-edge decision over Greg Leffler's gang. Bigelow's crew was clocked at 14.04 for changing two right-side tires while the beffler bunch needed 14.50 for the same" practice and settled for the $6,000 second prize. Th semifinals came down to two Armstrong and Alsup Racing. In th round-of-four, Leffler beat Bill 15.07 to 17.59, and Bigelow whipped Phil Caliva, 15.72 to 16.02.

The Pennzoil Chaparral pilot drew 16 votes from the panel which is made up of racing writers and broadcasters. Second choice of the panel is Mario Andretti with 12 votes with Bobby Unser third at six votes. Others receiving support were A.J.

Temperatures in the race cars get up into the neighborhood of 120 degrees when the air temperature is in the vicinity of 80.

The body can lose a lot of fluid in that time, and Tom Bush, who mans the door on the Media Building all month, makes it his special task to come up with just the beverage that the winner would like to have as he faces the press after the race. Bush checks out each driver before the race so that he can have what the winner wants. By the time it comes down to the last 10 laps he's got at least one of everything for the prospective winners. Among the choices are: Mario Andretti, ice water; Bobby Unser, Scotch and soda; Jerry Sneva, a screwdriver; Rick Mears, a Natural Light beer; Johnny Parsons, Gatorade; Pancho Carter, Per-rier water; Roger Rager, a chocolate milk shake; Jim McElreath, a beer; A.J.

Rick Mears has been named the winner of the 11th Jim Clark Award, given to the person in racing who, by his conduct on the track, best exemplifies the spirit of the late Jim Clark. Initialed by the Britannia Club of Indianapolis and now sponsored by the Kroger Company, the award is named in honor of the late Scotsman, who many believe was the greatest race driver of all-time. He was killed in 1968 at Hock-enheim, Germany. MEARS RECEIVED THE traditional booty a scroll, a leathern purse with 33 T-SHIRTS ARE almost as much a part of the Speedway scene as Cosworths.

And while this report may not be so terse as Mr. Finnigin's report to Mr. Flanagan, let us hope that it will motivate you to thread up your favorite fly pole and head for the southland because the fishing for slab 'gills is nothing short of great on many of the ponds and lakes. Earlier this week reports of good blueglll fishing were drifting in from the south so we started doing some checking by telephone and the story was the same just about every place we called. "IT'S HOTTER than a firecracker!" said Bill Ruddick at The Gun Trader Shop at Seymour, and "they're getting them by the 5-gallon bucketful," chimed in Vem Rice of the North Vernon sporting goods store of the same name.

And so it went with just about everybody. Brush Creek has been very good in the last few days for both bluegills and redears, but Lake Hardy has been giving up some good standards and Starve Hoi-low has been good. Of course, the farm ponds that have good bluegill populations are always excellent when the nesting starts. Crickets are a good bet for the 'gills right now often in 10 to 12 feet of water but rubber spiders are also providing GREAT VALUE 1 comp. rrs5v' ta $io WHITE OR SIZES 672-12 good action on fly rods and small spin-ner-bucktail combos are scoring when they are permitted to run fairly deep.

ACTUALLY, IT doesn't make much difference what you put down there, the bluegills will hit it if it even looks like it is going to get close to the nests especially the males. Smallmouth bass, rock bass and channel cats also will be good bets in the streams for this long Memorial Day weekend and the largemouth bass have kept up pretty well even though they now are off the nest in central and southern parts of the state. Crappies also continue to hit well. The white perch (freshwater drum) run has not materialized in the southern rivers and the Wabash as it usually has at this time of year, but with everything else being 10 days to two weeks behind schedule this is not really surprising. White bass spawning runs still are nothing to brag about up any of the streams, but good strings of silvers are still showing up from the lakes.

Some of the larger rivers in the south-central counties are running above normal and murky to muddy, but otherwise nearly all water will be fishable this weekend. If there is any doubt about the clarity of the water in your favorite stream it would be well to head for the upper part of the stream because nearly all of this water is clear.

STOCK CARS on the Ova Figure-8 1 TMl ASSOCIATED MISS Top-seeded Guillermo Vilas of Argentina cruised into the quarterfinals of the $200,000 Italian Open tennis tournament Thursday at Rome, but it was the losing bid of a 16-year-old French player that drew the sympathy of Rome's often unruly spectators. Vilas, showing the form of his great year in 1977, whipped Hank Pfister of the United States, 6-4, 7-5, in a battle of booming ground strokes from the baseline.

The Argentine, ranked fifth in the world, will meet Mexican veteran Raul Ramirez in the quarterfinals. Ramirez defeated Vilas' Davis Cup partner Jose-Luis Clerc, 7-6, 3-6, 7-6. The match that drew the biggest crowd paired Czech Tomas Smid and France's Thierry Tulasne. The 16-year-old youngster, who is ranked 334th in the world and ousted American star Vitas Gerulaitis in a second round match Wednesday, lost to Smid, 6-1, 5-7, 1-6.
