HARRIS OILS ARE WINNERS
AT THE ASCOT PARK RACES

Harris oils again added glory to
their already we'll earned regulations,
that brand of lubricant being used on
the winning fyer-the little Corbin,
which car took three events in the first
money class, namely, the fivemile,
ten-mile and the fifty-mile events.
And to add to the general cleanup,
the big Chadwick, which gave an eX-
hibition mile run in slap-bang man
ner, was another car to bring home
satisfaction to the makers and agents
of the Harris brand of goods.
Frank Free, who drove the Corbin,
stated in his usual blunt manner;
Take it from me, I have used all of
them, but the Harris is the only oil
ever use in racing
Chanslor & Lyon, who are the agents
for the Harris oils, state that thei"
sales of this brand of lubricant are
constantly and steadily increasing as
the goods become better known, al
though they have been a staple article
on the market for a long time, and
that the taking of three events in one
day with the winning car is sufficient
satisfaction to them, with the addition
of the fastest mile made on the track
by a car giving an exhibition run
simply emphasizes the question all the
more.
Los Angeles herald., 1909-10-31

that these entertainments are to be
of the class entirely different from
those with which Ascot park has re-
Gently been familiar.
There is but one thing to be re-
GREETED. and that is that the people OF
Los Angeles should have overlooked
an afternoon of exciting pleasure IN
witnessing these monsters. of the road
in wheel to wheel races and all car
ried out with the precision of an army
movement.
Manager Hempel was the man of all
things yesterday. Started the cars,
tagged them home at the end of their
runs. made the announcements of the
positions of the cars, watched the time
scoreboards, saw that the officers kept
the track clear and everything moved
like clockwork.
Hemple kept things moving from the
first event to the closing one and the
competition was sufficient to call forth
loud acclamations of approval of the
several cars and their drivers from
the well satisfied audience that COM
fortably filled the grandstand. Not
withstanding this the attendance
should have. been far greater than 1t
was. for never has Ascot park wit
messed more complete arrangements
than were present at the opening, or
rather the rejuvehation of the famous
race track. The course was patrolled
Los Angeles herald., 1909-10-31

with real policemen under the charge
of a sergeant and the most perfect
order was maintained all the way
through. -
The first event was the five-mlle
number on the program, and when
the Corbin won in minutes % 80
seconds Following this came the ten
mile contest with the Corbin, Wlnton,
Palmer-S Singer. Royal Tourist ana
American at the tape. This the Cor
bin also won in II minutes 40 sec
onds. and the final event of fifty miles
was taken SO easily that the little car
needed scarcely to take her highest
speed. In this race the Winton as IN
fine ten-mile event, made the start as
though there was nothing in the run
ming but the Winton, but Fran Free
took her measure soon in the game
and at less than the third mile hau
tbe Winton called back behind nm
and off shot the Corbin into the leau,
never again to be overtaken, and at
tbe end of the race had made new
record of $3.50, the Winton Tagging
behind badly for several miles. rms
race scored as follows: Corbin, VIM
ton and Royal Tourist, the Palmer
singer falling early in the race anu
was taken from the track.
The Chadwick gave an eHhlpllloH
mile run.
In the five-mile free-for-al there
Los Angeles herald., 1909-10-31

were three entries-the American,
ROYAL Tourist and the Palmer-Slngef.
This race the Royal took readily IN
5: 40 3-5, making as pretty and consls-
tent a run as was ever run on any
track The Palmer-Singer took second
prize with the score of 500. The amer
lean met with trouble in the first lap
of the race and was taken from the
running.
The track was fully and thoroughly
patrolled by a squad from the Los
Angeles police force and mounted po-
lice men on the outside of the fence.
The public had the opportunity to
see the improvements that nave been
made by Manager Hempel The fence
at the grandstand has been removed
and repair pits placed directly in front
of the grand stand, so that the audi
ence could have a fun view of every
thing going on in the cars. Wire lines
have been extended to each and the
new score board showing the position
of each car in the race made a hit,
for it told the whole story of the races
as they were occurring without ask
ing a question or depending upon the
announcer to hear the results.
A military band dispensed lively and
appropriate airs during the entire en-
tertainment, and this afternoon when
the second days events take place the
park should be crowded, for never
have the people of Los Angeles had
the opportunity to witness events car
ried on with the precision of military
camp as at these races. The cars are
brought promptly to the starting line.
There are no tedious waits, and this
afternoon everything should work as
smoothly as though it had been an
everyday affair for years. The races
will begin promptly at 2:30 o'clock,
and today there is to be a 100mile
event which undoubtedly will be ex-
citing from start to finish.

WOMAN DRIVERS ARE TAKING
KINDLY TO IDEA OF TOURING

The woman drivers of America have
taken kindly to the proposed national
tour for drivers of the fair sex, and so
great has the interest grown that it is
not at all unlikely now that a trophy
will be offered. In fact several have
said that they would give the trophy
providing some interested body would
take charge Of the event. In America
there arc "A number of motoring CLUBS
for women only, and the Quaker city
has one of these. This club has not
been approached i'm the matter, but a
Philadelphia man said recently; II feel
quite sure that the women of Philadel-
phia will become interested in the pro-
ject Mrs. Joan Newton Cuneo, who
drove across America with three woman
friends; Miss Alice Potter of Elgin, Ill,
who drove from Elgin TO New York and
back on a shopping tour with three
woman friends, and others of not in
the world OF motoring have all ex-
pressed their intention of entering a
tour promoted for women only.

known in the automobile trade as one
Of the veterans, is the manager of the
compay in New York. Referring to
the aims and policies OF the new man

of campaign and policies for 1910 will
consist of putting forth every energy
to place the Isotta to the front all over
the United States instead of combining
efforts and sales simply to New York
city. The Isotta company will cover
the United States thoroughly and place

cities to act as distributing points

the coming Vanderbilt Cup race with a
stock Isotta belonging to a customer

OF the elgnt ulIefent modes manu-
featured by the Italian CON- any, in
Guiding a full and complete stock of
parts for the use and benefit of all
Isotta owners who desire replacement
or repairs. In short, it will be a con-
slant aim and study of the company
to aid and assist all who have pur-
chased Isotta cars in the past or who
may decide to do so in the future in
every possible way.
The Isotta company will also act as

guarantee of seventy-five years of
square dealing behind them.

In Berlin and Hamburg.
The average yearly income for the
skilled workmen who reported was
found to be S45S.S3 and the average
expenditure $4J1.Tl. of which 5l.5 per

the unSkilled laborers in both indus
trial and commercial occupations the
report showed au average yearly in

expenditure of $4ll.70. "a per cent Of
which went for food alone.
A recent study of the standard of liv-
ing in New York city. made under the
Sage foundation. led to the conclusion
that it was impossible for a family Of
average size. five or six. TO maintain
normal standard of living on an In
come under $500 Il year. This conclu-
sion has been substantiated by an In
vestigation by the federal bureau of
labor, which showed that the average
income among l,4l5 workmen in the

the percentage of skilled labor was
high, was SS34.S3 Against this was
an average yearly expenditure Of
$77S.O4, of which only 43 per cent was
spent for food.
