CLEAN RACING IS DEMANDED PROMOTERS HUNT SPORT BY ADVERTISING METHODS Harroun Not Personally Object of At. tack, but Only Taken as Ex. ample—Local Driv. ers to Shine 1 .".i:'.•/». W. BKMPI-K The criticism of The Herald on the affairs at Ascot park last Saturday and Sunday were In the spirit of general welfare, of the racing portion of the automobile business, and not with In tent to be carping or fault finding; for the readers of these columns will bear testimony to the fact that it was The •Herald which early last fall took up the matter 'of, racing with automo biles, advocated the racing as a feature of In'lie lit to tho dealers as well as en tertaining te the public. This success fully assisted In bringing about that public interest which carried Into the grand stand for the -management the Immense throngs which went two days to see the "king of the circular.track" •Barney Oldtleld —and a number of times placed thousands of the same grand stand to see the local drivers of local cars, until they became as great favorites as were the horses which drew crowds every day at this same park. What is Intended Is that the racing . part of the automobile game shall he kept right and clean as It has been in the past, and no advertising under false colors made to bring money to the box office. \ ■ A better Instance of just what hap pened was the meet of last Saturday, followed by that of Sunday. The Her ald has no quarrel with Mr. Harroun. No paper would be more generous in its treatment of anything he might perform which would coll for the glad hand, even to the point of laudation, than The Herald, but Harroun was overadvertlsed. This may not have been his fault. But he suffered the con sequences of that overadvertislng. Had Harroun been announced as an at traction having made most excellent trials on eastern speedways, the public would have been glad to have seen the driver who had made for himself that reputation. Instead he was brought here and widely and prominently spread before the public as the "world's champion" automobile driver. No other name appeared, and Harroun went on the track with his splendid M arm on car and was most lgnomlnlously de feated —slipping clutch or no slipping clutch. The public Is not Interested In slip ping clutches. The fact remains un answerable that on Saturday Harroun was severely beaten in the 25-mile race with a cor fifteen horsepower leas than his own, his motor being DxiVi-l'icli bore, as against the Corbin 4!4x4V4 --inch bore. His big yellow machine is undoubtedly a splendid piece of ma chinery, and won many compliments on the race track from those who act ually know cars, but Harroun himself lost the race with it because he was driven oft his feet by a more fearless driver, who went in to beat htm and did It. Afraid of Oust No slipping clutch excuses can wipe out the apparent horror of Harroun of diving Into the Corbin's dust, while his opponent simply wallowed In it without a murmur. Harroun himself said to a companion at the pits after the second race: "1 don't see how Livingstone can run Into my trail and take the dust I am giving him." That's Just the point, Mr. Harroun. The same thing was repeated the following day, and in precisely the name manner, at precisely the same spot, and, mind you, also, that Matsgn, who was driving the little Mormon, was giving Harroun, his driving part ner, all the best of it by so timing the stretches that Harroun would pass him there. All this while he kept Living stone pausing his car on the turns, compelling the Corbin to take the out- Bide of the course, which cost valuable seconds, because it Is farther to travel and the track is softer out from the pole than on the line. But when Har roun was mixed In the dust of the slower cars be was lapping his fear of dirt and sand killed his nerve, and there Livingstone excelled and repeat ed the dose of Saturday on Sunday. The (Dining meet will probably be worse than ever for Harroun, unless he :s prepared to take more dirt than ever. With more daring drivers on the i i«it k alongside of him should be the I'uliner-Singer and the Kulck white streak bo entered dust will fly, be cauae neither Slefert, who handles the rainier, nor Nikrent, the Bulck pilot, lias any more regard for a dirt track than for a parlor floor. If the Marmon Is credited with being the dirt stirrer, It Is nothing to the Palmer, with its enormous tires, and a driver absolutely without fear of any kind. That big six-cylinder car can sure ramble some. Nikrent and his •'watch charm" must be reckoned with. Tins little white midget sings like it bird and is tho fastest car to get away in the country, and Nikrent, with his I'luwulx experience, will not care much aiiout how much dirt there Is on the track. The Herald recognizes, therefore with the uncertainty of what entries the park management may have, that it is ilitlii ult to announce cars and driven locally on account of tho pre vailing conditions among tho dealers; but In the future, whin there are at tractions from tbe cast, it will bo well to tiive the public Just what it may expect. That is what has made the Attendance in the past largo and profit able, because the public got what It went to aM and was always ready to no again. Ket it be otherwise, and the people will soon forget the way to Ascot Dark. PALMER-SINGER ENTERS FOR ASCOT PARK RACES At a late hour last night Tho Herald was advised that the Palmer-Singer had been entered tor the .Saturday and Sunday events at Ascot park by the Stewart Speedometer company and Frank Sicfert engaged to drive the racing car. It is understood also that the Buick will be entered by the Buick factory, as predicted in The Herald of yesterday. These two cars, with tho Corbin, the Reo Bird and big Marmon and Colo, will make one of the most Interesting matches ever pulled off at the track. It la reported that a large sum of money has been placed on the Corbin and Marmon cars for the coming meet, as Harroun is said to be "daffy" on the subject of beating everybody. He has also talked light with some of the newspaper men, The Herald man in particular, but Mr. Harroun will do well to make an effort to win something' on Saturday next, which will kfop him right busy. The Palmer-Singer is a dangerous machine for the next meet, as a bird has whispered the car has rolled off practice time which will indicate a mark far below the sixty seconds. Little Cole '30' Brought Here from East to Participate in Los Angeles Race \ ■■jJjffiitffflA Mp* 8^ .rttatiA B?^^3 mm jjatfTt ■ SL., W. M. Endecott has been In the racing game since the year 1905, when he entered the employ of the Thomas company, driving a two-cylinder Thomas and later a three.cylinder Tincher car. In 1907 he went with the Moline people and drove the first racing car turned out by that factory, which he helped design. In 1908 he left the Moline factory to enter the service of W. N. Mitchell and drove their first American racer. Last year he became attached to the Cole people, in whose employ he now Is. Endecott has been in three bad acci dents when his cars turned turtle with him, and last December he drove in a race with the thermometer 2 degrees below zero, having both his ears and his nose frozen. His car was the only one to finish. SOUNDS FROM THE MUFFLER <'. J. Yeager, agent for the Paterson Thirty, has received his racing ma chine and it 1r his intention to hold the car for its first appearance in the AiUdena liill climb. The car is said to be vary fast, and Yeager expects to make a first row drive with it on the track! 11 mold Stone Ib to drive the little Marinon Saturday and Sunday next at Am ot park. This Is the car which Joe Matron drove in th« meets of last week, and Stoney expects to gel some additional spend out of it. The Heo Hlrd Is being- equipped with the Seeley ignition system preparatory to next. Sunday's events. Al Livingstone has been engaged to driVH in the Nineteenth avenue hill climb In Sun Francisco March 30. ti* win nliip his little Corbln by boat next Monday morning and will accompany, so he may be constantly with the rac inK machine. Nick Nikrcnt was on tha Ascot track yesterday with the little "White Streak" Uulck and was working hard to turn the oval in 1:04. The midget seemed to balk at its game, but Nick expects to havo it in better humor by Saturday. The big Palmer-Singer racing oar for which the company sent O. Werner a brand new engine because of his sticking to the racing game, was on Ascot track yesterday, and Frank Si>- fert, with Danny Long pumping oil, tore off a few miles at about l:0<S and 1:04. 'I lie life of the promoter of races the.se days is full of troubles and much grief. First, there are "world's cham pions" who get licked to a fra/./.le; second, there are cars that make i f showings under alleged fast men, md then It Is hard to tell what cars are to h« entered on account of the action of the Dealers' association, which frowns on unlicensed cars participat ing against licensed machines, and there you are. Never lias the Corbln been so fast an it will be In next Sunday's race.", is the Olalm of Livingstone, its driver. A corps uf mechanic* are tuning the ear Up to the iiuest notch, »o that ilar roun will hava his hands full again for Saturday and Sunday. "Ox-World Champion" Ray Har roun has awakened from his dream and Is inoculated with the betting bee at this iat.- hour, it is stated that he was around yesterday offering to "bet a million" that be will beat the Corbln next Saturday. Maybe, muybe. Before Harroun gets to betting away all of his money it would be well to delay further racing on the track and put in practice work. He might en gage some wood sand and cement mixer in front of one of the thousands of buildings being erected in this beauti ful city and statid In front of him all day, permitting the aforesaid mixer to Shovel sand In his eyes so that he may become accustomed to what will be banded to him worse than ever next time, because there will be some addt tlonul dirt throwers in big and little curs who thrive on just that kind of food from a competitor. Joe Matson, it is stated, went to Fresno, where he was to have com municated with Manager Hempel, but when the latter "long distanced" him yesterday Matson had departed for San Francisco. Looks as though the solemn Matson will be among the missing for Saturday's events. When BrUOO Zelsel arrived at the track Sunday with his Sterling he smiled and said: "Never mine, I hey something up my sleeve today for theea boys." In the first time around the track in practice he followed this with the remnrk: "Ach, she mishlng; she's mishlng." No vehicle attracts more attention on the streets than the Warner Meter car, which records the speed, miles and distance us the car operates on the highways. A "live one" got away from Motor cycle Policemen Coe and Gardner In a local court the other day and tears fell from the eyes of these two riding naVkahawi because tho man charged with speeding asked for a Jury. About the only eastern driver who lius little or nothing to say is Ende cott, driver of the little Cole Thirty, hence Endecott did not get his eastern tootsey-wootseys in it here. A broad grin steals over the face of Frank Slefert, the well known and al ways popular driver of the big Palmer- Singer Sixty-Six. Foxy Frank in prac tice made 1:04 on Ascot, but ho did it with a grin, and Slefert, It is expected, hns about five or six seconds more to loosen up with the big racer. The Western Union Telegraph -com pany reports, a very heavy Increase in its business since last Saturday night. While the real reasons for this increase are not disclosed by the officials of that company it Is believed that the volume of the business was explana tions to the factory as to why the Marmon Forty-five lost the races as Ascot. Fifteen miles faster to the hour is what Livingstone claims will be the increased speed of the little Corbin when she next appears on the track. A two-minute horse could not be more attentively looked after than this little machine. The "other noted drivers" of Los An geles are lining themselves up for honors day by day, who will bo crowned "world's champion." AGED BANKER DIES ST. LOUIS, March *9.—John Wahl, president of the German Savings in stitution and the oldest banker in years and length of service, died of heart dis ease this afternoon, aged 77 years. LOS ANGELES HERALD: THURSDAY MORNING, MARCH 10, 1010. WINTER BASEBALL Officials of the Southern California Trolley league will meet next Tuesday afternoon at 210 Lissner building to make final arrangements for an early opening of the league schedule, which, if possible, will be Started as tirst an nounced, March 2<l. But some of the managers are of tho opinion that thli date Is a little early and it may be changed to some date in the early part of April. All umpires who have any intention of putting In an application for a position on the league's official Indicator staff are requested by Presi dent McCormick to submit their appli cations at the coming meeting, when they will be acted upon. President McCormick also requests all local am ateur players who wish to play with the Trolley organization to submit their names and state with what team they played during the past winter sea son, in writing, at the meeting or leave It any time before Tuesday at his pool room. The Wleland OlUb and the Hat Box team are scheduled to mingle on the Thirty-eighth and Alameda street dia mond next Sunday afternoon. Pitcher .Sexton, who made such a successful record en a mound artist with the Maleri the past winter sea son, annexed the biggest triumph of 1 is career in Southern California yes terday, when he SO handily trimmed tin White Box aggregation. Beaton • apltter worked beautifully during the beach contest, even better than It did last Sunday at Santa Ana, when he shut out the villagers in a ten-inning contest This clß** of heaving ought to set some of the big league mag nates after the Seattle management, which at present holds the spit ex pert's contract. Therp is only nne place that McKay outshines hli performance in the neigh borhood of the second cushion and that place is with the stick. And a home run, too. With a ball player to hold a posi tion steadily liccoir.es very near rou tine work with him; that is. he knows What is expected in that position whenever a play comes Up, unless there is bonehrad In his makeup. This same player who Is a star at his position, when shifted to another, before he be comes accustomed to it, will be playing at a grent disadvantage. From the | new position ho will see plays from a different angle and each play requires | a change of form from his old method when playing the old position. There fore a player who may be a crack in tlelder at one position to which he has become accustomed will fall down Jo a eertaii extent when installed at an- Other point on the diamond. Yester day Gus Na«t, who has played the short field ever since he broke into the game on the local sand lots, and this winter made an enviable record at the same position with the Santa Barbara club, the pennant winners of the Winter league was stationed at the third cushion in the I^ong Beach line up and It feU to his lot to make the only error the beach club made dur ing" the game. Although an error may be caused by a pebble or a small de pression in the soil most anytime, It Is a good gamble that had Nast been in his old position that one bum bingle would have been scored against an other if at all. Jimmy Kerwin took kindly to the offerings Of the White Sox mound art ist yesterday and one of the clouts was for two extra bases. Jimmy has the confidence now and nothing short of a Kansas cyclone can stop him from becoming a regular in fast company. Clarence Marshall, the long boy who was tried out by the Beavers in the last two seasons, has been wintering TROPICAL SELLING STAKES CAPTURED BY FAVORITE Vosper Puts Up Vigorous Ride and Scores In Final Sixteenth.

McCormick team in the Southern Trolley league, who signed Marshall up for the class D league which will start shortly. .Tlmmif> McAleer believes that in Bill Hendrieks he has uncovered the one to round out the pitching staff of the Senators.
