Over the past few years, that image has begun.to change. The Indianapolis 500 Festival is. trying to keep up with the changes, scrapping the traditional Mayor's. Breakfast for a more familyfriendly celebration. "Start Your Engines" is a new program that will allow the public.

to drive laps around the historic Indianapolis Motor Speedway for $10. "Driving around the track in your vehicle will be a great tradition for families and race fans," Al Smith, president of this year's 500. Festival, said during a news conference at the speedway's Hall of Fame Museum. "Our goal of the. festival is to really broaden it for children and families." The 500 parade will be held.

in downtown Indianapolis beginning at noon on Saturday, May 24, the day before the race. The grand marshals will be new head football coaches Cam Cameron of Indiana University, Bob Davie of Notre Dame and Joe Tiller of Purdue. Other confirmed parade guests include Olympic gold-medal-winning gymnasts Jaycie Phelps, Amanda Borden and Shannon Miller as well as Capt. Scott O'Grady, the U.S. pilot who was shot down in Bosnia and retrieved in a daring rescue.

(AP) Ten followers cult leader Marshall Applewhite told residents here 21 years ago that a UFO would them up and take them to the Kingdom of Heaven in a "few months," a newspaper reported. And that wasn't the only trip followers of "The Two" made to Indi-: ana that year, According to The Muncie. StarPress, the followers spoke at Ball State University June 10, 1976 during a recruiting trip that didn't include Applewhite. Four members also spoke at the Allen County Library in Fort Wayne the next day, describing a "human harvest" that would lead to a spiritual awakening, according to the Fort Wayne Journal-Gazette.

Thirty -eight Heaven's Gate cult members and Applewhite were found dead March 26 in a Rancho Santa Fe, mansion. Members left behind messages that they participated in the mass suicide so a UFO following the HaleBopp comet could take them to the "next level." Details of the 1976 speech at Ball State are scarce, but poster's promised the talk would "clarify: the evolutionary, level above humans as originally presented by 'The Two' and explain UFOs." But in the days leading up to the speech, several members spoke with local newspapers about their mission. '97 OLDS BRAVADA Per $339 Month.
