[By J. P. Yoder, United Press Staff
Correspondent]
CHICAGO. June 26.—Mercury was
made to look like a piker today
at' Chicago's new automobile speed
way. Dario Resta, an Italian, who
looks more like the real thing in col
lege athletes was the man who put
the runner for the Gods to rout.
Resta smashed almost everything
but his bullet shaped Peugeot. From
the minute startpr Fred J. Wagner, of
the New York A. A. A. whipped his
"go-it" flag unde.- the noso of Barl
Cooper in a box like Stutz, until the
race was over, speed was king.
Resta not only won the 600 mile
jgrind in record breaking time but
lie shook up the time records for
distances in between until a set
of bewildered judges were unable to
Jteep track of them.
Sr.
-.n Averaged 97.6 Miles an Miles
Resta covered the 600 miles in five
hours, seven minutes and twenty
seven seconds. His average for the
distance was 97.6 miles an hour,
whiciv is a whole lot faster than any
mortal has ever traveled on. wood,
dirt or concrete before and a great
deal faster than a lot of ordinary
folks ever will: or want to go now or
in the.'future.
Except-'on- one. or two or three oc
casions when Resta's burning speed
fairly melted his- tires and made
changes necessary, the Italian led all
the way.. Resta had to do what he,
did to win the $23,000 he shook down.
He was RBiili$d to the danger limit

•Stutz cars until his lead was cer

For Busy Bugs
tests of games are coming In faster I
than the games can be played. Now
comes James Hamilton with the de
mand that games played with Mason
City by his club be thrown out be
cause the Claybakers had five veterans
on their club. He also wants games
'played at Marshalltown thrown out
because he alleges Richards had fif
teen men on his payroll. Also Jimmy
makes the request that Egan's men
be Investigated, saying he has a strong
suspicion that Ned is using more than
four yeteTrans.
If this protest stuff keeps up, what
are we coming to It will take all
"winter to' finish the schedule.
Doc Andrews and Dick Rohn should
toibble'.if the lsaguo blows up. Judging
from what we've lamped this season
•they both missed their calling when
they dodged the footlights and failed
to hatfken the call of the burlesque.
Dick bedecked In hickory shirt, false
whiskers, straw bonnet and dusted
with hayseed, would warm the heart
of a lightning rod agent.
Up In Waterloo the papers say Doc
Is temperamental. In Cedar Rapids
they explain it by saying his capacity
is not in sympathy with his thirst.
Dr. Jay on the War Path.
Those of you who know Dr. Jay An
drews—and that includes almost every
body—and those of you who don't, will
appreciate the interesting story of
what tWe world's greatest cut-up pull
ed, up in Cedar Rapids. Listen to the
Cedar Rapids Republican as it tells
the story:
"In all the many celebrated dis
plays of temperament and foolishness
that Poc Andrews, feverish boss of
the Waterloo bc.ll club, made during
Central association history in the
Bunny park. Cedar Rapids fans never
saw anything as thrtllingly amusing
and laughter provoking as was Doc's
carrying on while he and his Jays
were losing the game Thursday after
noon. The brief facts are that Doc
was fined by the umpire, dragged out
of the park by SpedlaT Officer Giffrow,
that he looked over the fence while
standing on a fr.rmer's wagon, peeped
through the holeg in the boards, was
refused a ticket r.fter he tried to pay
for |t, was led to his hotel by Alvia
Fitzgerald, and lost the game by a
score of 6 to 3.
Doc showed by his action before
the battle that he was properly tuned
for something extraordinary. He
prp-nced around like a goat let loose
and cut capers which

An idea of tli^. speed made on 'he
Maywood track can be Judged when
it is realized that the ten first men
made better time than DePalma's
winning mark of 89 and a fraction at
Indianapolis, May 30.
Long Distance Marks Fall
Practically every record from 50
to 500 miles fell before Resta's sput
tering, roaring car. -They went so
fast that even the judges frankly ad
mitted they'd have to have time to
compile them.
The winner ran a) heady race
throughout. He was always consis
tent. He refused time and again
to fall for the grand stand orushes
that his rivals tried to draw him
into. He steered
hiB
race as though
nobody else were in it.
A remarkable race also was that
run by Harry Grant in his oft times
assembled and many times reassem
bled Slunbeam. The stops for oil,
gasoline, new tires and repairs made
by the others vere too numerous to
keep count of. Grant didn't shut off
steam once.
No Accidents to Mar Race
There wasn't a sign of an accident,
except twice. As Gil Anderson ap
proached the press stand at the end
of the 91st lap a tire exploded but An
derson righted himself and went on
to his pit.
Then on the 320th mile, Earl Cooper
and Grant nearly smashed into Res
ta during, a speed brush. That was all.
The crkwd was not up to expecta
tions. Dekpite the ideal day, less
than 90,001 saw jfche race.
The stands aiid parking spaces
could have accommodated twice that
number with ease.
Resta's $23,000, winning included
$20,000 for first prize and $1,000 giv
en to the man leading at the 200, 800,
and 400 mile marks. Earl Cooper took
the $1,000 for being in the lead at
the end of the first hundred miles.
thought he was on the high road out
of the second division. While warm

that he was posing as a trick smoker.

after the manner of fake Roman sen

From Doc's eyes shot sparks of flr'.».
The enraged manager's eyes intended
to scare the umpire into shivers.
"Umps" Harris took too .much of the
acting, but found it impossible to take
all.
"Harris ordered Doc out of the park,
but Doc would not go. There were
heated words, angry steps and elabor
ate shakes of fist from Doc cs the um
pire called Grounkeeper Collins to
call a policeman. Special 'Cop' Giffrow
appeared on the scene. Several Wat

tried to reason. Doc pulled on his
sweater, but forgot be. had it on and
went looking for it on the bencn.
Many times he jerked himself away
from those who would rescue him and

to stop and allow him to watch over

"An enthusiastic yell of -welcome
went up from the stands when Doc's
corpulent form wrapped in blue-sweat

Tex Sheldon, Doc's first baseman,
waved a welcome to his boss. For sev

made a motion as if something hap
