ALLEN ID BE NEW ADDITION ALONG
 AUTOMOBILE ROW

Heralded as the type of car experi- enced engineers shave always wanted to build, the Allen, will soon make it's debut on the streets of Phoenix. It is said to be the logical outcome Of years of development by company whose aim has always been to place quality above quantity.
 The Allen has not as yet been seen in Phoenix, but it will be here shortly according to F. s. Paden. of the South err Motor company, state distributors for the Moon and Allen.
 According to Paden the Allen has become distinctly popular in the east. The car is built in Columbs, Ohio, by company which has been steadily growing since its advent in the auto building world a number of years ago.
 The model 43 is a perfected Allen deisgn, resulting from a combination of the engineering and manufacturing experience of the Allen organization with many of the very valuable de- velopments brought out under the severe conditions of war

 There's a fast Hudson in the lineup. It belongs to Poland Nicholson, the son of Pittsburg millionaire. Nicholson is one of the eastern drivers in whom much interest centers.
 Eddie O'Donnell. of Duesenberg fame, is on the ground looking for a car that has enough of the fast stuff to put him into the big money John. De- Palma, brother of the famous Ralph, too is searching the speed camps for a suitable mount Barney Oldfield, who retired from driving to become a tire magnate, will not drive, even for his thousands of friends in Los Angeles, but there is some feverish preparation in the Oldfield garage where twosracing cars are being gotten ready. One is motored with the new 1S3 cubic inch type. The other is a 300 cubic inch motor. Waldo Stein is regarded as a likely driver for one of the cars. All of the drivers who intend to be contenders in the 1920 championship award of the A. A. A. will be in Los Angeles for the opening of the season on the new speedway. So many points will be awarded owing to the import ance of the race that no drivers could afford to stay away and have that handicap to overcome later
 The seat sale opening has been marked by an amazing rush for box seats. It is expected that in addition to drawing the largest crowd that ever attended sporting event in California, that this will be one of the big society functions, rivaling the old-time horse show.

graduated" Murphy's Duesenberg is another of the sensationally tast kind and those speed fans who like to waSe; a bit are establishing the DuesenberS team as favorites even before seeing the new cars.
 Roscoe Sarles has made the boast that he will qualify at more than 112
 miles per hour in his F'rontenac- Sarles is not much given to empty talk so
 when he says 112 miles per hour IL will be that. His car is fast enough to do it and Sarles who has watched the construction of the track says that it will be the fastest course in the world.
 There will be whole flock of From tenacs. Kenneth V. Goodson has en- l tered his car, as has Joe Thomas.

gineers to be the safest gait for the car. From there on up.
 Some idea of what this tremendous speed may be had from the figures ascertained by the engineers in some tests. A car of ordinary weight, strik- ing the curves at 100 miles an hour. exerts a force on the surface equal to a weight of seven tons.
 There will be introduced to the speed fans of California something new in the line of speed when the field is sent on its dizzy way February 21. In the lineup will be the very best that Amer ica has in the way of drivers and cars. For instance, there will be Tommy Milton and his eight cylinder DueSen- berg. This combination has been the sensation of the year in the east.
 At SheepShead last November he travelled 113 miles in 60 minutes, dis tance outstripping the best perform ance of any other car in the world. Tn this same car Milton won the check cred flag in the two Uniontown races. Sheepshead and Elgin. With Jimmy Murphy, his teammate, Milton is now at Daytona Beach, Florida, shooting at the sensational records created by Ralph DePalma in his Packard there last spring.
 Milton and Murphy will ship their Duesenbergs direct from Florida to Los Angeles by express. Milton all ready is a favorite in Southern Call fornia because of his fearless driving. He is one of the most daring drivers that ever gripped a wheel. Some Of his driving around Los Angeles is still talked of as the most sensational ever seen.
 Murphy has been identified with racing for years. He has ridden with all of the best. Now he is pilot in his own right and star. His long experience in the mechanics seat qualified him to jump right into the front ranks of the drivers when he

 '"The fact that I am right next to the Goodyear branch and have we'll equipped storage garage on the other side of me enables me to be in pecu- liarly fortunate position. I have re- ceived a great deal of help from the Goodyear people and they are able to give me all the cooperation in the W orld.
 Tn fact, a motorist can drive up here to get gas and oil or a new tire or a tube, and get anything else he wants while waiting, except new automobile. We have it all, and if we haven't time to make repairs there is a garage right along side where they can be made.''
