Every indication pointed to at least eight or more cars in readiness Jxr qualifying Wednesday. Joe Lencki seemed quite certain of securing a four-cylinder engine for the Blue Crown Spark Plug Special, which Mauri Rose drove in his attempt to qualify last Saturday. Lencki is determined to have that car in the race with Rose at the wheel, despite the unfounded rumor which spread in the garage area that Rose might drive another car Lencki also is getting his other Blue Crown Special prepared, which Tony Bettenhausen originally was assigned to drive Much credit buities, including assorted Dase ct THAT ROCKET TEST -Duke Naion, a prominent contender for 500-mile race honors May 30, is shown above sizzling over the Speedway's back stretch Tuesday in a test of rocket propulsion as applied to racing cars.

Fifty-five itnutes were needed to play-.

the rst two' innings. -J-: should be given Lencki, who for years has been striving to winner for this event entirely on his own, not calling on the aid of what he terms "fancy" engineers. In spite of the many obstacles to which he has been subjected several times, he stubbornly cat? ries on with unlimited determination. Through the tireless efforts those owners such as Joe Lencki, many mechanical features been developed and recognized by leading auto manufacturers who eventually adopt them for cars driven by Mr. Joe Public.

A COMMON question which any one in connection with auto rac ing asked many times is: "Who will be the great race? car designers and builders in America in the future? Who will be the successors to the hights once occupied by those automotive greats Fred S. Duesenberg, Louis Chevrolet, and Harry Miller? The general reply to this question is based on the fact that it will take a lot of money to follow in the footsteps of any one of the "Big Three." When those great engineers of Speedway masterpieces started their careers, a dollar was worth a dollar, and cveft then, the cost of a racing job ran more than $10,000. Today the cost of the same car would be double if you could get the material and if the boys in the shop didn't get called out on strike. But there are always a lot of dollars kicking around in the pockets of sportsmen, and it's almost a certainty that some wise gent is going to get enough dollars and brains together to duplicate the jobs of Duesenberg, Chevrolet, and Miller, who have passed from the scene but live in memory as the "Big Three" of the Speedway. Harry C.

Stutz was one of the greats, too. but he retired from Speedway competition just as the "Big Three" came into the picture. Later, in 1923, Stutz paid Harry Miller the high compliment of entering a Miller job in the 500-mile race under the label "11. C. S.

Special," and justified his confidence in Miller by winning with Tommy Milton at the wheel. Harry Miller, the last surviving member of the "Big Three," was a custom builder of racing cars. Some young man or several of them will follow his lead and, believe it or not, they will build better, faster, safer cars than Miller, Duesenberg, or Chevrolet. That's progress, as the auto industry knows it always better than the best that has gone before. So, bring on the next generation of race car bulders! ONE OF THE busiest A.

Deacon Litz is back on the scene at the Speedway, thus giving all in Gasoline Alley the assurance of some hearty laughs, particularly in the Italian dialect to which he is most partial. Rudi Caiacciola.

Caracciola. most colorful racing figure in all Europe, Is gentleman to the ultimate degree and would add great color to thp coming 500-mile event. He made the trip from Switzerland eveh though he was deprived of bringing over his own car.

His hope js that he may arrange to drive another mount here; otherwise, la? will at least get' a general idea of the layout of the Indianapolis Speedway, and will be well prepared for his anticipated trip to race here in 1947. Caracciola has won the German Grand Prix five times tltp Switzerland Grand Prix three times, the Italian Grand Prix twicf and Grand Prix races of France, Belgium, Spain, Monaco, Tunis Tripoli. He is hailed as the greatest racing champion of all time in Europe.
