Woman Driver Not Accepted in Indy 500 Race
Janet Guthrie, 38, says hostility persists among male racers as she prepares for the 1977 Indianapolis 500. The first woman approved to drive at the brickyard recalls subtle resistance, missed support, and cool reactions from some USAC and NASCAR drivers, while praising Dick Simon and A. J. Foyt for backing her. Guthrie heads to Ontario, California, to test the Lindsey Hopkins Lightning for the race, which has reached a recorded speed of 198.7 mph.

Ohio U Falls To Ohio State In Double Losses
Ohio University baseball dropped two games to Ohio State 5-4 and 2-1 in Columbus. OU led 2-0 after Dean Washington doubled in a first inning score, but a fourth inning error and miscues by Ohio State produced the Buckeyes’ runs. Harry Tabler’s late reliever impact and miscues helped OSU seal the second contest as Wright earned the win.
