COLISEUM RACES
ARE POSTPONED
DERKUM is NOT CERTAIN OF
SPEED OF MACHINE
LlNGENFELDER READY FOR NEXT
WEEK IF NECESSARY
Scalp, and the Frenchman
Silently ChuckIes to
Himself

There will be no races at the Coliseum
motorcycle track today, but, because
Of the postponement, the speed fans of
the city will be doubly assured OF
far more interesting program week
hence, because of the certainty of what
will probably prove to be the most
exciting match race ever held on the
local saucer track.
1t had been confidently hoped all the
week until last Friday that the fast
Merkle machine which has been shipped
from the east especially for Derkum's
use would arrive in time to be thor
oughly tuned out, but this hope faded
into ephemeral smoke as the end of
the week drew near and the possibilities
of the Merkle arriving and being paced
in racing form grew less and less 1t
was Friday before Derkum received the
fast racer that Stanley Kellogg has
used on the eastern circuit in winning
his remarkable string of victories the
past season, and the time was then so
short that it was decided to abandon
all hopes of the Pacific coast champion
meeting the terrible Frenchman today
Derkum protested stOutly that he was
that he received a racing machine that
he believed anywhere the equal Of the
Indian machine ridden by De Roster,
and so the Coliseum management de-
cided to allow him to have the call on
the match race for a week from today
and to not disappoint the public by
attempting to hold any races today.
If DerlIum does not come promptly to-
the front, however, and show a willing
ness to meet De Roster at the tape in
a dead in earnest struggle to defeat the
Frenchman, then the management viii
quickly give up all hopes of making
the match at this time, and will afford
Eddie Lingenfelder, the spectacular
speed maniac of Alhambra, a chance to
realize his cherished hopes Of having
another battle royal with his old rival
De Roster, on the banked saucer.
Lingenfelder is here and is literally
chafinS at the bit for a chance at De-
Roster. He brok into the racing game
last spring at the Coliseum, and De
Roster left for the east the same day, !
without giving Lingenfelder an oppor-
tunity TO test mettle with him. Lingen-
fielder later met De Roster at the In |
danapols speedway and galloped home
ahead of the Frenchman, incidentally |
winning the worlds ten-mile champion |

COLUMBIA STANDARD
ALWAYS MAINTAINED
ID YEARS OF MERiT0RI0US
EMINENCE BEHIND CAR
Exec eptlonaIIy Easy Riding, Built OF
Best Materials and Workmanship,
with Fine Lines and LuxurI-
ousIy Finished

The great diversity of climate, ele-
walton and road conditions which are
at once the charm and the difficulty of
automobiling in California are all ef-
ficiently provided for In the Columbia
car. 1t is built with the maximum of
power in proportion to weight. and has
the necessary strength to climb the
most difficult hills, to withstand the
strain of rough mountain roads or the
hard grind of sandy byways
For fourteen years the Columbia car
has maintained a standard so high that
It may be justly said to have become
a standard for cars of the finest and
most luxurious type. The material used
In it's construction is the best, the
workmanship is above criticism, and
the finish second TO none. The Column
bia is built for those who want the
best and are we'll aware that in the
end the best is literally the cheapest.
An initial low cost often proves but a
small item when the upkeep bills come
in. The Columbia is not an experiment,
hut the result of fourteen years of con-
stant endeavor to improve.
The Columbia is an exceptionally
easy riding car, due to the extra long
spring extension. 1t is made in many
styles of body, giving a seating capaci-
ty of two, three, four five, six or seven
passengers
Features of the Columbia are the
position of the foot throttle, which.
operating on the large earburetor, is so
placed that a steady movement Is as
sured at all times by allowing the foot
to rest on the floor; the use of a gov
ernor which prevents the engine from
racing when the clutch is thrown out;
the double carburetor which effects a
saving in gasoline consumption and en-
tails less adjustment in the carburetors,
each one being designed to fulfill its
special duty; the make and break
system of ignition, for which this car
is famous, and an additional ignition

BUICK RECEIVERS LOST
TIRES AT SAN BERDOO
CAR TOOK CHANCES AND HER
GOODYEARS STOOD TEST
Made Two Trips to Phoenix, and Made
Race Track Event, and Same
Tires Are Still Being
Used on Her

An interesting story has crept out
in connection with the victory of the
Buick in the Los Angeles-PhoeniX
motor car race, which goes to show
what the exercise of intelligent in
genuity based upon a reliable article
will do.
The Buick was equipped with Good
year detachable tires and Goodyear
universal rims. At certain difficult
places in the desert, where tires in
fated to the ordinary pressure eX-
perienced difficulty in forcing their way
through the sand, the Nickrent boys
debated their tires to fifteen pounds
pressure and were thus enabled.
through the fiat surface presented, to
drive their car much faster than their
competitors using heavily inflated
tires.
OF course, this was directly con-
trary to the accepted rules for tire
imitation, and was really cruel and in
human treatment of tires, but the
Goodyear tires fully justified the con-
fidence placed in them. and went the
entire distance to Phoenix without
rim-cutting or any other tire trouble
whatever. The stunt could not have
been performed with ordinary clincher
tires Furthermore this same set of
tires which had made the Los An
geles- Phoenix trip twice, were used by
the Buick in the fifty-mile race at
Phoenix, still showing no trouble. To
call the whole a remarkable perform
ance is a conservative statement.
The risk taken in debating the tires
and using them in the manner indi-
Gated is emphasized by the fact that
the Buick lost it's set of spare tires
between San Bernardino and Uplands.
The w. d. NeWerf Rubber company,
with its usual foresight and enter
prise, promptly wired the chiefs of
police at San Bernardino, Cucamonga
and UpIands, with the result that the
valuable set of tires representing a
money value of over 1925 was recov-
cred and restored to the Buick people.

SELLING SEASON NOW
WELL UNDER WAY
MORE ORDERS BOOKED THAN
LAST YEAR
Those in Search of Cars Will Find
Little Difficulty In Meeting Any
Sized Purse in All Glasses
of Cars

The 1910 selling season is now well
under way, and those in search of mo-
tor cars will have little difficulty in
finding models to suit about all purses,
except people who are looking for ma
chimes that would give them twice the
value of their money. That there are
many such people any dealer well
knows.
when are the prices Of motor cars
coming down to a reasonable figure"'
is a question that men interested in
the industry have hurled at them over
and over. When they reply that the
cars at the present time are being sold
at a reasonable price they are laughed
at, and often hear people say they are
going to wait until the real low prices
arrive.
Many people have an idea that the
prices asked for motor cars now are
much in excess of their worth. They
think that the maker gets about 100
per cent profit and the dealer as much
more AS a matter of fact, the profit
has not always been so very large, and
there have been times when there We're
deficits I'm many factories.
The buyer seldom takes into con-
sideration the fact that thousands of
dollars are represented in molds, dies
patents, etc, for these were essential
at the start, and many of them have
been replaced in recent years. The
years of costly experiments to make
the motors perfect left little margin for
the investors I'm many plants.
In recent years the cars have been
growing larger, stronger. speedier more
beautiful, and yet the prices have not
been advanced to any great extent At
the same time there have been put on
the market a number of cars at low
and moderate prices that would have
cost twice as much a few years ago.
These machines are not hastily thrown
together either, but they are built on
the best modern lines and will give
splendid service.

and faster the latter miles of the trips
around the track than she was in the
first stretches, showing perfect lubri-

she stopped was as cool and comfort
able as though she had just come from

of the five-mile handicap, and the

with De Roster.

argument goes. there will be an exciting
