A run of 800 miles at the remarkable
average speed of To miles per hour was
the great feat performed by Teddy Tetz-
| laff at the recent Santa Monica races.
Driving a Lczier stock chassis before
crowd of 1900 people, he became famous
In day by double victory over field
of foreign and American racing cars. In
two OF the greatest automobile races in
this or any other country Tetzlaff not
only won the stock chassis race OF 15i
miles, but with only a twenty minute
stop for the purpose OF allowing other
cars to finish in the first race, won the
aO2-mile free-for-all race. defeating the
i big free-for-all races. which started n
| fresh against his stock Lozier, which had
just finished the record-breaking stock
chassis race.

worlds great automobile racing had
stock chassis ever Travelled so fast on
the road, and only once has this time
ever been exceeded by any car either in
America or Europe. and this by Nazzaro
over boulevard course in Europe, who
driving one of the highest-powered rae
| ing cars in the world, exceeded this time
| by only a small margin.
| In the 203-nile free-for-all race ifnme-
diately following his great stock chassis
performance Tetzlaff averaged TIP miles
per hour; also breaking all records ever
| made IN America By any other make or
