MOTORISTS PLAN
ENDURANCE TEST
Leading Automobile Clubs
of California to Run From
This City to Los Angeles

Now that the annual meet and races
Of the Automobile Club of California
at Del Monte are over. l.. P. Lowe, the
indefatigable chairman of the club, has
turned his attention once Lore TO the
proposed joint endurance run of the
Southern California.
The plan at first arranged was for
the San Francisco automobilists to
journey in their motor cars to Los An
geles and, after a two d.-ys' rest there,
to journey back in company with the
southern motorists. VINO, after a two
days stop in San Francisco, were to
make the return trip to Los Angeles.
This arrangement would have made a
round trip of about a thousand miles
for the motor cars. 1t is thought
however, that the 500-mile trip in one
direction will be a sufficient test of the
endurance of the cars and, incidentally,
of their drivers.
According to the present plans, the
northerners and southerners viii start
together from San Francisco on
Wednesday, the 21-t inst, and journey
south The first control will be Sa-
linas; the second San Luis Obispo, and
the third Santa Barbara. On the 24th
the motorists will reach Los Angeles.
The event will be in charge of l.. p
Lowe, ). G.. Buckbee and c. c. Moore,
the racing committee of the Automo-
bile Club of California.
The most brilliant performer at the
recent races at Del -ionte was George
P. Fuller. who won the Del Monte cup
and several other trophies and was
selected as the representative of the
Automobile Club of California in the
contest for the interclub perpetual
challenge cup presented by L. P Lowe.
Though Mr.. Fuller is an amateur, who
races for love of the sport. he is hard
ly less skillful than Barney Oldfieid in
rounding the corners or the track at
high speed.
