SEELEY SYSTEM PROVES
WORTH ON C0RBIN RACER
High Frequency Ignition Adds to the
Power of a Car-Demonc-
strated on Race Track

1t was again demonstrated yesterday
at Ascot that the Seeley ignition sys-
tenn is one of the most important dis
coveries which have been made for the
use of automobiles and other motor en-
gines. President Sweeney has succeed
ed in giving to the automobile world
one of the most successful devices that
will aid the speed Of a car ever set be-
fore the public.
This system is not alone applicable
to racing cars, but to privately owned
machines of any description. The pow
er of the car is materially aided with
the electricity developed by the plac-
ing of the magnets upon the cylinders
and the effect is seen at once.
When the Corbin was at its best in
the old days it never did better than
1:02 o thereabouts for the mile, but
since ne little car has had the Sesley
system installed it has made many a
mile in less than the minute mark. 1t
will be remembered that Livingston
drove 1t in the ten-mile race last fall
every mile but the first in less than a
minute, one mile being made in 5S 2-5
seconds.
During the races yesterday Vice
President Hart of the Corbin Manufac-
turing company was one of the most
interested spectators, because the Cor
bin had never made better than 20
miles an hour in the east under east
ern drivers. This was its record in
the Cobe races, but western men have
taken the little car down the road at
So miles per hour, and that Is going
some.

Car Containing Carbide
Falls in Creek

w. D. Tremaine of Needles, who
drove his Pope Hartford from Needles
to Los Angeles in the remarkable time
of sixteen hours, left Friday in the
same car for the return trip. AS he
was travelling alone and wanted some
thing to help weight down the car in
the journey over mountain and desert
roads he took two bales Of waste and
200 pounds of carbide. It's shame
to think what would happen If he
should upset in creek with that car
bide.
After reaching Needles Tremaine will
make brief stop and will then coS-
tinue on to Phoenix. At this season
of the year the run to Phoenix is one
of the hardest trips in the country,
but Tremaine, who is an expert desert
driver, has confidence in his Pope
Hartford and will push on
He has just taken the agency for

AT COLISEUM
NICE CARD PRESENTED FOR
SEASONS OPENING
LlNGENFELDER AND WHITTIER
WILL MEET
Motorcycle Cracks Will Line Up in
Various Events, and Broken
Records Among the
Possibilities

The opening Of the spring season of
motorcycle races at the Coliseum will
take place this afternoon at 2:3O with
the finest card yet presented at that
track. On Friday the management
had ten men scrubbing the oil from
the boards which had been distributed
there from the racing machines. Sew
enty-fiVe gallons of gasoline were re-
quired to clean it, but it Is now safer
and faster than it has ever been and
a number of worlds records are ex-
pected to be broken this afternoon.
The match race between +. u. Whit
tier of Salt Lake, mounted o.. a Mer-
kel, and Eddie Lingenfelder of Los
Angeles, mounted on an Indian, will
be the principal attraction, and as both
boys are the gamest riders ever
mounted on a machine, and as both
machines, the Merkel and the Indian,
are the most reliable of any racil
motors ever used at the Coliseum, t.
public will be guaranteed the create
match race ever pulled off.
The second feature, which will ba
no less interesting thAn the mat
race, will be a fifteen-mile trade rider
race in which Seymour and Grave
will renew their battle royal for 81
premacy on the saucer track in cor
pany with such riders as Fearless
Bake II. Kittle, Al Ward. AS these
class in the country, this race should
prove thrilling and exciting event.

The third event was the flve-mile
handicap, and the Corbin showed that
she was improving in her speed. for
she never lost her lead, and with Har-
roun at the scratch, the easterner
never got near the bright red car.
The time for this race was, Corbin
5:07 1-5.
The closing number was the twenty
five-mile event, and no prettier race
was ever seen on any track. The few
in the grandstand got to their feet
and sent volleys of applause after
Livingston and the Corbin. showing
that Los Angeles is loyal to her
adopted sons.
This afternoon there are to be two
five-mile races, one Of ten miles and
the last event a fifty-mile number, and
Harroun will undoubtedly try his best
to wipe out the defeat he met yes

Before the smallest crowd that ever
assembled in Ascot park the best auto
mobile races ever run on that track
were contested yesterday afternoon.
True, all of the cars were not evenly
matched, but these soon assembled
themselves on the oval in their re-
spective classes so far as speed was
concerned, the two leaders being the
big motored Marmon and the little
favorite and popular Corbin, now the
property of the Seeley Ignition peo-
pie. AL Livingston was at the wheel
of the latter, and no human being on
any track ever saw more heady. first
class driving than this youngster dis
played in the run with the heavily ad-
vertised worlds champion" Harroun.
Not to say that Ray Harroun Is not
good driver by any means, but Har-
roun went up against the grittiest,
cleverest, nerveiest driver he has ever
Travelled with on any track he has ever
shown speed on. II ever a man had
dust handed to him, II was Harroun
yesterday afternoon when Livingston
took the lead with his little red car,
and polxed the dust into his face and
eyes until Harroun showed the white
feather and lifted his foot from the
throttle of the powerful Marmon. He
kept we'll to the rear for the balance
OF the journey of sixteen miles he had
yet to go, and came trailing In more
than three-quarters of q mile behind
his western rival.
With the clicking of the Corbin's
motor as regular as the pendulum of
the most perfectly adjusted clock,
Livingston hung on behind the Mar
mon for fourteen miles, and Harroun
was not the only man who tasted dust,
for Harroun held the lead for those
first miles and gave Livingston plenty
of Ascot park dirt. AL lives on It when
he Is racing. but IL was at that point
that Livingston showed his general
ship and proved to be the master OF
the circular track game. At the four
teen-mile mark Harroun was about to
lap the tailenders, and this brought
him into the cloud of mother earth
those hind-end fellows were stirring
up. and here he found the Corbin had
crawled up on him and finally was
wheel and wheel. Here Livingston
again showed his nerve. for he shot
she throttle to the Corbin and like a
fash he took the lead. giving Har
roun the dust medicine.

Al TOOK 10 the pNle directly dnead OF

those rear wheels threw sand and
gravel and dust into Harroun's hand
some face and clear eyes was a terror.
IT was too much. Gradually the little
red car crawled away from the big
fellow, and Livingston never again
was in danger of being overtaken.
Never once did Livingston shut Off
his engine in making any of the turns.
Wide open he dived into them as
though on the Palisades at Santa
Monica. The volleys ofs cheers which
went out to the plucky youngster gave
him renewed courage and the last mile
he drove was the best of them all.
The first race of the day had four
entries for the flve-mile--the Marmon

SCARCITY OF PARTS
is DRAG ON MAKERS
DETROIT REAL AUTO CENTER
OF COUNTRY
Factories Taxed to Limit, and 100000
Machines for Season Is Esti-
mate of Those In
Authority

The fact that there are millions upon
millions of dollars invested in the great
factories which are producing so many
thousands of automobiles during the
opening season of 1910 is becoming
widely known, and the manufacturing
of motor vehicles is recognized as one
of the great factors in the economic
situation in the United States.
Various estimates are given as to
the probable output of the 25O makers,
but the most reasonable ones place the
figures between 100000 and 100000, and
were it not for two safety valves which
tend to produce a regulating effect, 1t
is likely that even this great produc-
ton would soar still higher. An over
Whelming outpouring of touring cars,
roadsters and other types is only pre-
vented by the inability of the automo-
bile manufacturers to obtain the nee
essary specialized parts, and the other
regulating spirit is found in the recent
decision upon the Selden patent, by
which the Association of Licensed Au-
tomobile Manufacturers will have the
mower to decide what concerns snail
he allowed to construct motor vehicles
and how many they may produce.
Twenty-one states practically IN
clude all makers of machines, and OF
course. in some of these the production
the trade are found in about six Sec
tions of the country, such as Detroit
indianapolis, Buffalo, Cleveland, New
England states around Springfield,
Mass, and eastern Pennsylvania. De-
troit will turn out the greatest num-
Der and Indianapolis probably will be
second. The factories in all of these
places are already taxed to their ut
most capacity. The Premier company
will produce in all about 1000 cars for
the 1910 season and is now regularly
delivering twenty-five each week to
the sales department. AS it is the
plant is in operation by night as we'll
as by day. This is only feasible when
the makers really manufacture, as
does the Premier company, and not
merely assemble.
Premier cars are being made upon
two chassis models, one a four-cylin-
der. car of 40 horse power and the other
a six-cylinder one of so horse power,
both similar in all other respects, with
the exception, of course of wheel base.
The six-cylinder machine is next to
the longest car built in this country,
for here is a distance of 1391a inches
between the axlec. That OF the smaller
T. lei is 120 inches. The "4-40' is con-
structed as a regular five-passenger
touring car, four or fiVe-passenger
clubman, and a two-passenger road
ster. The big six has the same num-
ber of styles, but the touring car is
equipped with extra seats so that 1t
can carry seven. all facing the front.

Barney Oldfield is to race here In
April. If he is to be taken at his word
In a letter to Frank A. Garbutt, pres
ldent of the Los Angeles Motordrome
company. He congratulates Garbutt
on the progress of work on the track
here and says he will be very glad to
race on it. From the general tone of
his letter, Garbutt says he has no
doubt but that Oldfield can be per-
suaded to take iH match races here this
spring on the motordrome.
F. e. Moskovics. who is In the east
signing drivers and arranging for ap-
proyal of the track and sanction OF
the opening meet in April, is to see
Barney on his trip and talk the mat
ter over. II possible he is to secure
his signature to a contract or get his
promise TO race.
BY the time Moskovics returns to Los
Angeles he will find the motordrome
completed, except possibly in q few
minor details. The grandstand and
bleachers are done. the track and pad
dock are finished, the repair pits are
built, the dirt track Is being made, and
the two tunnels are half dug through.
Jack Prince is satisfied with the work
to date and says I've hopes to turn the
place over to the automobile drivers In
week for pra ctice workouts.
The building for the use of the Aero
club of California as an aviation head
quarters is to be put UP before the big
auto meet. Meanwhile a tent is to be
erected for temporarily storing aero
planes. The club has four machines
ready to take to the grounds, and
others are to be ready for transporta-
tion In a week.
1t is possible that I'm the April meet
for autos, a machine will give exhibit
tions and possibly race an auto. 1t is
believed an auto can make the circuit
twice while an aeroplane goes around
once; possibly the motor may go
faster, as all conditions favor it. Great
things are looked for by the club and
the motordrome company in the de-
velopment of the two sports and their
relations to each other.

drome track was Miss Sybil Bowman,
a local expert auto enthusiast, who
last week drove on the pie PAM in a

traversed the boards nearly a third of
a mile at good speed. So taken with
the possibilities for time-maldng in
safety on this track when completed,
Miss Bowman will ask the privilege
of making a fast mile. AS there are
a number of skilled woman drivers in
the city, 1t is not improbable that dur
