RACE FOR OLD CARS


 Los Angeles, Cal, June 19-A race that for general interest ought to have the Indianapolis annual event backed off the boards was proposed this week by B. l.. Symonds of the SyInonds Mo tor Car Go, when he issued a sweep ing challenge to race a 1904 air-cooled double chain-drive Marion against any car in Los Angeles built during that season or prior to that time. tHThat race is open to all comers,'' said Sy- monds. "I will race for any distance up to 100 miles for any purse the other contestants may desire. Pro vided that it is at least nine years old, no car will be barred because of age, color or previous condition of servi- tude." While Symonds is very reti- cent concerning the speed of his an cfent wagon,< experts who have ex- amined 1t are confident that with proper tuning 1t will do at least 30 miles an hour and possibly five miles an hour better than this.
 No takers have yet openly appear ed on this excellent sporting proposi- kered and ancient cars, with motors concealed in various strange places about their anatomies and which in operation emit noises strangely remin- iscent of a lung sanitarfum in full blast, have been quietly insp pecting the challenger. The speed-wagon to which Symonds pins his faith former ly belonged to c. P. Dodge of this city, who estimates that he has driven it upwards of 100000 miles. Constant exercise has kept it in good condition and prevented it from becoming rheu- matic in the Joints.

TWO LONG TOURS.

Three Henderson cars will start for San Francisco on July 1st in two ex- actIy opposite directions. Two of these will complete their, drive to the Pacific Coast in twenty-six days while the third will be two years on the road, arriving in San Francisco July 1st, 1915, during the Panama Pacific Exposition. Two will be touring mod els entered in the Indtana-to-Pacific tour of the Indiana Automobile Man ufacturers' Association. These cars will be equipped with the Harroun kerosene carburetor and will use this fuel during the entire tour. The third car will be driven around the world by MT. Edwin P. Kohl. This will be a roadster model
 Several cars have made the trip around the globe but as rule they have followed the beaten paths. Kohl and his companion are going to keep away from the usual routes and go in to territory where a motor car is sell dom seen. They expect to penetrate the steppes of central Russia and the wilds of south eastern China north of the IIima1aya mountains, cross the Syrian desert, follow the east coast of South America to the Panama Ca Zei and along ehe west coast of Cen tral America and Mexico to Ca1ifor- mia. The drive. in western Mexico will be fraught with more danger as the country is sparsely settled, Indians predominating.
 Roughly the itinerary of MT. Kohl and the Henderson is as follows: Start July 1. 1913, for New York City; sail to Liverpool, touring England. Scot

For hauling nitro-glycerine in Okla hona where they shoot the oil wells about the same al a subway contractor blasts his way through wall of rock a. White truck with a special body has been built for the Eastern Torpedo com mpany of .Bartlesvil1e. Across the frame there are placed several cross sil1s of pine. These siIls are spanned with a layer of asbestos to prevent heat fro reaching the load. Above the covered with a thick rubber mat to reduce jolts. Over the mat there is a copper pan covering the entire load ing space and having high sides to guard against the fluid reaching the chassis in case Of a leak in one of the cans. Dividing the entire loading space are thirty cell, each 7'' 7'' 17'' into which cans of nitro glycerine are placed.
 The cells have a wood cover to pre- vent anything being dropped upon them. When 8 can has been lowered into the pipes of the oil wells, a rock is dropped down the pipe and the en- suing explosion breaks up the sub-sur- face rock and earth. quickening the flow of oil The truck is now in ser vice, piloted by a, driver who is cheer fully indifferent. Forty pounds inn pact will Ignite a charge.
