Chitwood's daredevils perform many death-defying stunts, including jumping a flying auto over a speeding car.

This particular feat is performed by Mr. and Mrs. Buzz Bundy. CHITWOOD FORMERLY had six units traveling the country, but this year he has only one, and it features the cream of the crop. Among other performers are Timothy Chltwood, 11, and Joie Chitwood 17, who are following in their dad a footsteps.

Joie is a lormer waianapolis "500- com petitor. Highlight of the modified pro-pram is the return of Bob Reuther In hia rebuilt car. Reuther Is al-most certain to be among the lead, ers. Jimmy Griggs, whe hat been running at Montgomery, the last several weeks ia also expected to return. With that talented pair on hand, the other front runnera ahould have their hands full.

AMONG THE STEADILY progressing drivers, who also must be considered to cop the 30-lap fea ture are John Thonl, and 21-year-! old Charles Stofel. Both have been running better every week. Thoni said the other day that he now has more power than he'a ever handled before, and he predicted a feature win for himself, either this week or next. Stofel is learning how to stay in the groove, and veteran drivers are having a hard' time passing him. Time trials start for modified at 7 p.m.

The odds reportedly were 7 to 5 in Johansson's favor in man-to-man betting. Many thought the price would go up before ring time. The results of a preliminary poll of newsmen arriving in town for the bout showed a heavy swing to Johansson. Last year Patterson was the top-heavy choice as the 5 to 1 favorite against a challenger few of the writers had seen except for his unimpressive training workouts. THE MEMORY of Ingo's punch and Patterson's early destruction, coupled with improvement in training sessions by the Swede, apparently promoted the switch which was running about 3 to 1 In his favor.

INGEMAR Johansson, the champion, relaxed at his Gros-singer, N.Y., camp, letting the strength "flow back into my bones." He planned to come into New York tomorrow to finish his five-day resting period. Floyd Patterson, burning with an intense desire to win back the title he lost June 26, still worked away at his hideaway in Newtown, Conn, where he has boxed 84 rounds in a long training grind, Patterson went two rounds with Bjarne Lingaat, the Norwegian who beat Johansson in the amateurs in 1952. Ha concentrated on a body attack and switched to the head in the final minute of the second round. Earlier he had gone four miles of roadwork. He will run again today, but no more boxing until Monday.

Humbert (Jack) Fugazy, the veteran promoter who acts as managing director of Feature Sports, predicted the fight would draw 35,000 and a gate of $800,000. He said it could top that figure with a break from the weatherman, whose general long range forecast called for Graymere Meet Set Tomorrow; Graham Out COLUMBIA The eighth annual Graymere Invitation golf tourna ment is scheduled here tomorrow with top amateurs battling for the title left undefended. Louie Graham, 1959 winner, Is in the army and unable to defend his championship. Several Nash ville players, including Bill David son, Bob Swope, Elmer Odom and John Deal are among those norm- natea as chief threats for the crown.

NORTH NASHVILLE VTIattrs The 41-year-old Boston Red the year came in tbe third inning off Cleveland's Wynn Hawkins with Willie Tasby on base by a single. The smash had home run writ ten on it from the crack of the hat. The ball rose in a low arc through the rainy mist and cleared the left center field fence near the 365-foot mark.

WILLIAMS SAID he hit a slider and knew when the ball and bat met that he had his home run. "It felt wonderful," he said. Williams paused at third bass for a handshake with third base coach Billy Herman. When he arrived at home plate, the Splendid Splinter wore a wide grin. Boston players stood on the dugout steps to greet Ted and wring his hand.

Williams said: "One reason I played this year was to make up for a bad season last year." (He hit .254 last season and after last night's game was on a .328 batting average.) I can't but feel I'm very lucky," Williams said about joining the exclusive company of 500-homer hitters. They are Babe Ruth (714) Jimmy Foxx (534) and Mel Ott (511). Stan Musial of the St. Louis Cardinals is the active player closest to Williams in home runs with 416, six of them so far this year, "I hoped at the start of the sea son to do it this year," Williams said, "but I didn't think I would get the chance, because of a bad cold early in the season and a leg injury." IN THE pleasure of his excite ment last night, Williams looked back to 1940, his second year in baseball. Asked whether homer No.

500 was his greatest thrill, he said: "It's nothing like the one I got in 1940 to win the All-Star game." Long Balls Aid Music Victory Hermitage Music used two homers and a double by Wayne Yates to defeat West Nashville's Merchants 6 to 5 yesterday in the Optimist Little league. Yates second roundtripper provea nis team with the win. In other games the Eagles clouted Chick Motors 22 to 2 on a three-hitter by Steve Lane, the Teamsters rocked Paul's Curb 7 to 4 as Mike Patterson homered, and Kail's tipped Nashville Gas 7 to 3 as Tom Combs powered two home runs.
