Arizona republican., 1914-09-24

There is going to be q San Diego to Phoenix road race that will eclipse every road contest ever held for two wheeled benzine buggies, for at a conference of the Phoenix clubs committee last night with Chairman Ray Smith of tho San Diego commit = tee. a contract was signed, on which the 1914 race is to he based. And in that contract are the seeds of har mony that will grow and bear fruit of lasting benefit and publicity not only to hoth organizations, but to the cities themselves. In other words. the visit of Smith has at last resolved every difficulty, so that the arrangements are now all shipshape and Bristol fashion,
 The race will start in San Diego on the morning of Friday, November 6. will pause over night at Yuma for a start Saturday morning, haltS again at Agua Caliente and on Sunday, finishes in the city of Phoenix. Four teen hours is the fast time predicted by smith, who, in addition to being 1he head booster is the man who won second money in last years race.
 Fourteen hours is not too little a time. he says, for there will be va rious reasons why the race should le faster this year than last. Paul Derlum's time in 1913 was Is hours and four minutes. And the second years course is about forty miles shorter. Then, too, the riders know the road thoroughly. so that they can certainly make better time. The fact the motorcycles made better speed than the autos. San Diego to PsoeniN in 1912-is still . thing the two wheelers are proud of in this big southwest.
