Pag-e 8 College Station, Texas Thursday, May 23, 1968 THE BATTALION New Zealander On Tight Schedule For Indy Spot INDIANAPOLIS, Ind. <A>> — New Zealander Denis Hulme. world road raciner champion last year, is shrinking earth to auto tire size. Flying vast distances to race is old helmet to the international speed crowd. But Hulme is mak ing it ridiculous. The Grand Prix champion will fly 35.544 miles this month to race fewer than 1,000 miles on the ground. He didn’t plan all of it. An extra Atlantic crossing will be necessary because he failed to qualify his Eagle-Ford last week end to earn a spot in the Indian apolis 500-mile race May 30. Hulme has to qualify in Monte Carlo this week, probably Thurs day, for the Monaco Grand Prix next Sunday, then rush back for the final Indianapolis time trials and take off in mid-afternoon Saturday for another flight to Monaco. Hulme will be defending his title in the Grand Prix trials. The native New Zealander was the 1967 Grand Prix champion. His home is in Tauranga, New Zealand, but he races out of Surbiton, Surrey, England. Hulme’s program this month was the Grand Prix of Spain May 5, won by Graham Hill of England; the Monaco Grand Prix May 26 and the Indy 500 May 30'. The events at Madrid and Monte Carlo are a little more than 200 miles long. The New Zealander’s flying month will be London-Indianapo- lis - Madrid-Indianapolis - Monte Carlo-Indianapolis-England. The late Jimmy Clark of Scot land started the super-commuter competition in 1963, racing both on the Grand Prix circuit and at Indianapolis, running a strong second to Parnelli Jones in the 500. He won the 500 in 1965 and probably would have been this year’s favorite in a Lotus turbine, but he was killed at Hockenheim, Germany, April 7. Hulme and Jochen Rindt of Austria flew out of Indianapolis Tuesday night for Monte Carlo by way of Switzerland, because of the French general strike. Hill, Dan Gurney of Santa Ana, Calif., and other international drivers had left earlier. Hulme, only one of the group who failed to qualify at Indian apolis last weekend, was worried about what the French situation might do to his transatlanti; commuting next weekend. “Oh well,” he sighed. “Perhapi I can rent a plane in London."
