The IOC adjourned for the night and asked the Montreal delegation to remain on call for possible further questions Thursday. There was no immediate indication of how the IOC had received Dreapeau's assurances. No discussion took place on moving the Games to Mexico City, which has said it can stage them if Montreal fails to get ready The IOC gave no press briefing, as it normally does at the end of a day's work. But all the signs were that the session with Montreal had been rough and tough. Drapeau declined to say how the IOC had responded to his report.

"It is up to the president of the IOC to explain the feelings of his colleagues," he said. But Lord Killanin, the president, left the conference quickly and was not available for comment. An IOC spoesman said discussion on the Montreal problem would be resumed in the morning. The IOC asked Drapeau if he would prepare contingency plans for transferring the track and field events to another stadium if the main stadium is not finished in time. At a news conference afterwards, the mayor said he told the IOC there was no point in discussing such emergency plans.

"It would not be realistic to think there could be substitute facilities," Drapeau said. "If there were more strikes, the strikers would not not let any other work go on anyway. It would be absolutely no use to start repairing another stadium. We would be spending time, money and imagination which ought to be devoted to the main installations we have been planning all along." Earlier, Killanin said he had made no approach to Mexico City about taking over the Games. Drapeau arrived in Lausanne late Tuesday night and spent all of Wednesday campaigning to prop up drooping confidence in the Montreal Games.

eHe told newsmen from breakfast time onwards that the Games will go on as scheduled. He said 15 of the 17 sites are finished or almost all except the stadium and the athletes' village. He lobbied members of the 77-strong IOC and claimed none of them showed any fears or doubts. But he told newsmen the formal interview with the IOC would last only a half-hours and waes still not finished. Whatever response the IOC shows to the Montreal report, no moves are expected at this week's session 50,000 To Attend Tests INDIANAPOLIS (AP) buration tests are scheduled through Thursday at the Indianapolis Motor Speedaway, marking the last chance before Sunday's 500-mile, $1 million race, for the drivers to shake down their machines.

No use of the 2 1 2 -mile oval by the drivers and their cars has been permitted since the close of last Sunday's final qualifications. The track is kept shut down during this final week to imise the chance of injury to drivers and damage to their equipment. The carburation test, a misnomer in that there are no carburetors on Indianapolis-type machines, are used to calibrate fuel mileage, to review pitstop procedures and to map race strategy. A crowd of aprroximately 50,000, just a fraction of the number which will pack the race- Rosenwald Sets Spring Banquet Rosenwald Junior High will hold its spring athletic banquet tonight at 6:30 at the school cafeteria. way on Sunday, is expected for the three-hour period in which the drivers will test their sleek merchants of speed for the final time.

Asked why so many people would pay just to watch an occasional car run around an oval, one veteran Indy observer said, "I guess it doesn't take much to get Hoosiers excited. The twists could be critical for some drivers, whose crews have worked long hours this week taking apart and putting together the race cars in an effort to find the extra milli-sec- ond of speed which could be so critical on Sunday. For Steve Krisiloff, the test will also determine if he is actually going to drive on Sunday. Krisiloff, injured May 6 here in a wreck during practice, has his broken left heel in a special cast that is designed to enable him to wtork the clutch. If Krisiloff doesn't feel he can race with the cast on, driver Bill Simpson will take over his car.

Race rules permit driver changes in cars already qualified. But if the car cannot start, one of the alternate drivers in cars would move into the field. Rick Muther is the first alternate and Al Loquasto is secnnrl China To Get U.S. In Invite SHANGHAI, China (AP) The People's Republic of China will be invited to send a track and field team to the United States and work toward a home-and-home exchange in other sports, the president of the Amateur Athletic Union said Wednesday. "I will be talking with the Minister of Physical Education and Sports when we reach Peking next week," JosephScalzo of Toledo, Ohio, added.

"I don't know exactly in form I will do it, but I definitely plan to ask the minister to let us reciprocate for the wonderful hospitality we have received." Hahn Joins Cards' Team ST. LOUIS (AP) -Don Hahn, who was released by the Philadelphia Phillies last week to make room for Dick Allen, has been acquired by the St. Louis Cardinals. The 26-year-old Californian, a one-time member of the Montreal Expos and New York Mets, replaced outfielder Jay Schlueter, who was placed on waivers. Hahn appeared in nine games with the Phillies this season and was hitless in five times at bat.

"Chuam is the minister of sports because of his vast knowled ge and administrative ability, not because he was a table tennis champion," a spokesman explained. "In the People's Republic, we have no sports idols. Instead of individual heroes, we have collective heroes." Scalzo said if China accepts his invitation for a track and field visit, it is his personal hope to pattern the visit after that of the Americans here.

"For instance, we would like to have the team meet regional teams of our own, possibly in places such as Los Angeles, Chicago and New York," he said. Since the third national games the first since 1959 will be held in September in an Olympic-style, all-sports festival in Peking, China is expected to be receptive to overseas bids. "There is no reason we should not enlarge upon our association in other sports," Scalzo said. The AAU executive spoke of the proposal as the U.S. track and field team prepared to meet a second team of Chinese regional stars and juniors here Thursday and Friday.

These warmups billed as friendship gatherings rather than competition with no scoring lead to the more important meeang with the Chinese national team in Peking May 26-27 "We will see their best athletes in Peking," said the American Coach Bob Giegengack of Yale University. "I am sure we will be sur- pised." "I talked witn a group of about 20 Chinese doctors at Canton," said Dr. Tony Daly, of Inglewood, the U.S. physician. "I found the Chinese have no special food supplements or dietary program for their athletes.

Locklear Says He Won't Report SAN DIEGO (AP) After criticizing the team, San Diego outfielder Gene Locklear was assigned to the Padres' Hawaii farm team Wednesday. But the outspoken player said he won't report. Locklear is batting .441 but has been benched in favor of the higher paid Bobby Tolan. In interviews with reporters, Locklear let loose a torrent of criticism.

"I don't need baseball," he said. But, after the news accounts, he said he was called before E.J. "Buzzie" Bavasi, president of the National League baseball club, who demanded an apology. "I said, 'Why should I apologize? What I said was the He said they were sending me to Hawaii, and I said I wouldn't go. He gave me some papers to take to Hawaii.

I tore the papers up." Locklear has never accepted a pinch-hitting role since being traded to San Diego. ATLANTA Atlanta Braves are off to a slow start and Ralph Garr, the defending National League batting champion, feels he may be the culprit. "I feel like if I don't hit, the Braves don't win," said Garr, who won the batting crown a year ago with a .353 mark but is struggling around .250 now. "I hate to say it, but that's the way it looks," said Garr. "I know some of the clubs around the league feel that way, that if Garr doesn't hit, you can beat the Braves." So far, it has worked as the Braves remain under the .500 mark.

Garr, who owns a .327 lifetime mark, is puzzled over his slow start but vows that will soon change. "I know I'll hit over .300 but I'm a little worried now," he admitted. "After all I am human, too. Nobody is sadder than me," said the 29-year-old left fielder. Garr, after his batting title a year ago in which he also led the league in hits with 214 and triples with 17, went to arbitration in a salary dispute over the winter and won a contract for $114,000.

"There's no extra pressure on me," he said. "The money is for what I've done, not for what I'm doing. It's just a game of bargaining. The only way ou get money is by statistics. They'll take it from me if I don't produce.

Garr, however, still leads the Motorcycle Racing Set At Lynn Haven Motorcycle racing will be held this Summer at the Sunshine Park Speedway, formerly the Gulf Coast Speedway, in Lynn Haven near Mowat junior high school.

He also has become one of the favorites of Atlanta fans and has nearly 50 followers in the left field stands who call themselves "Garr's Gallery." "They just want to win, said Garr.

"And that makes me try that much harder." 'I'd be over .300 with a couple of breaks," Garr added. "I've been hitting the ball good btit it's just been a matter of I'm just a little bit off."
