TIMELY AUTO TOPICS i BOSTON "VOTING' RUN Cities to Ballot ov Question of Popularity. Fourteen entries have already been re ceived' for th° annual New York to Boston run on March •". The start J3 to be mad© from th« Hotel Astor M C o'clock In th« morning. L,. H. Perlman has offered a trophy for which the contestant? will strive. Unlike most, motor car contests speed will play no part in «1»t« > rminlnK' the winner of , th© event, for the competitive feature will be confined to 4 vote for the most popular car in th« run, the ballots to b<> cast by" residents of. Boston ar.d cltie? atioig- the route. A daily newspaper In each city -^nich has been selected as a voting station will pub- ■ lish th? official ballot in Its column for one i week, beginning the Monday previous to the race, and the ballots rvi!l contain th© names c* th? cars pnt^r^d up to the Tim 1 of j go:r>p to press. TYTien there is more than j on«? car entered of the nine make, each car will have a ballot box. but the ballots will be counted collectively. As each car starts the driver will receive an official ballot box. Upon arriving at a voting station the rep resentative of the entrant of th« c?r must place the ballot box in a conspicuous place, but must not allow it to be out of his pos session. Each checktn? station -will be in charsre cf a sub-refeiec of That city an<i he trill be appointed by the newspaper which print? the official ballot. The oar receiving the most votes will et*-: the trophy. Th" controls or voting stations will be at. Bridgeport, New Haven. Hartford. Sprtng n>ld, Worcester and Boston. No contestant will be allowed to remain more than thirty minutes in a control or the vicinity of one. Toe entrants must si^n an agreement not to do any speeding:, and none Of the con te«tinr cars will be permitted to pass the pacemakinsr car. Women v. ill be allowed to drive cars in the contest and permission is given to those who dc-sire to decorate their. machines. A. H. Whiting has been selected as honorary referee by Samuel M. Butler, chairman of the contest board of the American Auto mobile Association. The plan of the Touring Club of America to organise a series of six Eastern tours during the spring and summer seasons , has found a warm exponent In Mrs. Joan New ton Cuneo. probably the best known woman motorist and tourist in this country. Mrs. Cuneo, who has been a conspicuous figure in several Glidden touring events, has many excellent idea? from a woman's point of view on the manner In which such events ought to be conducted. 'The trouble with competitive event?, such as- the Glidden tour," said Mrs. Cuneo. "is that participants become so engrossed with the effort to maintain perfect scores that they lose all touring enjoyment. Their thoughts are centred on arriving: at a given point at a given minute, no sooner or no later, and they are in dread every moment tesi a punctured tire or some other mishap cause them to fall behind. They are re quired to arise at uncomfortably early hours, to stand in lino waiting for break fast room doors to open and then to gulp their morning- meal, so as not to cause an instant's delay at the starting line. "Ones they get under way they are forced to trail along in some one else's dust, and arrive at the noon and night controls coat ed with dost, both within and without. At the night stops their ears are taken from them and locked up in garages to prevent any work being done upon th««ni. It Is a case of rush and cat. rush and eat, twice every day. for the schedule must be made whether the sun burns like a furnace, the. wind blows a pa!« or the rain falls in tor rents. There is no fun in it, and there is no real touring in it. "It is absolutely impossible to enjoy the scenery in a competitive tour. As a mat ter of fact, few participants have a knowl edge of the names of the towns they pass through. This was illustrated in my own case. At the recent automobile show in Madison Square Garden I was introduced to several persona who informed me that they had recoarnized me from seeing me pats through their town on the last Glid den tour. 1 inquired the name of the town, and. though they took it for granted that i must have remembered It, I will confess that 1 did not remember ever to have beard the nam** before. This. I think, is a good illustration of how little so-called tourists In trophy contests really known of the .routes they travel." Percy Owen, rice-president of the Carl 11. Tape Company, announces the appoint ment of George 11. Stowe a.5 sales raan uxrv. Mr. Btowe has been prominent in automobile affairs in Massachusetts. General John T. Cutting announces that the Dldsmobile Company oj New York has leased the store at No. 10C5 Broadway that adjoins the Oldsmobile salesroom on the north. The company has U»en cramped for room in Its present quarters 'or sorr.e time, and will have twice at much floor space when it gets possession of the store i.< xt door. The additional salesroom trill give the Gldsmobiie firm another fifty feet of Broadway frontage, and is as deep as the present store. In .i statement issued by the Goodyear 5 rr and Rubaar Company, of. Akron. Ohio, yesterday. if was ■■*! that forty-four of tho leading automobile, manufacturers had contracted for Goodyear tires for their 1510 output. This amounts to about 35 per cent of the estimated If<O,OJG new automo biles to be manufactured during 1910. The remaining 64 per cent Is divided among twenty-two established tiro makers.

In on« sf the prettiest contests ever sees on an Indoor track Harry Gisslng carried the colors of th» M Regiment to victory In ths one-mile Military Athletic League relay race at the Spanish War Veteran*' K-ames at the M Raiment Armory last night. QaslßßJ ran the las] quarter of a mile in the exceptional time of. 50 3-5 sec onds. Opposed to the TZA Regiment quartet wen teams from the Tilt and 23*1 regiments, and both had. out their strongest runner". The much-talked-of M»;vin Sheppard ran second for the 2Zd Regiment, and ho more than held his own -with Park*, of the 71st team. McEntee. "who relieved SheppartJ. found Dorland. of the 71st. a tough cus tomer, -while Bacon, the third man for the 3d. failed to keep up with the others. There -was practically no difference be tween McEnt** and t>orland at the end of their quarter, so that Olaslug and E?an p?ed away in the final relay on even terms. Egan led for half the distance, and then Gissing cut loose. In a twinkling hi had passed Egan, and. increasing the distance between himself and h!s rival at every stride, ■won by nearly twenty yards. Th* time — 3:27 2-s— was only a second behind, the record. An unwieldy field of seventy runners too* their marks for the two-mile handicap, •with George Bonhac and Mike Driscoll on scratch. At the start Bonhag 1 »ped away so fast that Drlseoll soon beg-in to los« ground. The champion picked up his field rapidly, every additional lap finding addi tional handicap men giving way as a result of his space devouring stride. F. A. Bren nan, a Pastime athlete, with an allowance of 150 yards, kept In front for a time, hut Baahasj caught him at a mile and a half and thereafter had th«» race at his mercy. The Indoor klnar did not exert himself throughout the, last two lap?. »lse he might have come clos<» is hi* own Indoor record for the distance— 2-5. As it was, Bon hag covered the route in 9:33 4-5; Erennan was second and Eddie Carr. the veteran Xavier man. third. Be many turned out for the half-mile ' handicap that it had to be run in heats. j Both Gissing and Egan startsd from scratch in th« fir«t heat, but the Interval ! between this and the gruelling relay wa3 | too short, and neither finished. B. A. Ogs. a Mohawk runner, with forty- two yards start, won the final heat. Quite a crowd turned out.
