Los Angeles. Cal., March 20. Teddy

Tetzlaff, at the wheel of his Loiier,

which won him worlJt-wide fame in the

.Santa Monica road race, yesterday

afternoon hauled down the colors of

two champions when he defeated Ralph de 1'a.lma and the Flat. "90" in a match race for 100 miles and incidentally swashed De Palma's former

speedway records of twenty -five and

fifty miles and set a new world's rec

ord for 100 miles smashing Ray Har-

roun's sensational time by more than

two rali'i's.

TetzlaftVs time for the 100 miles was

1 hour 14 minutes 29 1-6 seconds, and De Palma's time was 1 hour 19 minutes

34 1-5 seconds.

Tetzlaft's race was faultless from the

moment that Referee Harry Staver of

Chicago gave the starting signal. He took the lead over De Palma at the slart, and the king of all the eastern drivers never after that had a chance with the Californlan.

Both men drove a very careful race

during the flrst ten miles, each wait

ing to see the other fellow's game.

When it became apparent to Tetalaff

that De Palma was playing safe, Ted

dy opened up. His best time until the

twelfth mile had been forty-six sec

onds. He careened around the track

in the thirteenth lap at forty-four seconds for the mile, and he passed the

tape in the fifteenth mile- at fortytwo seconds. A burst of speed in the

seventeenth mile nearly caught De

Palma, and when in the nineteenth Tetzlaff passed De Palma' with the mile

lead the immense crowd shook the grandstand with their cheers. His time for the nineteenth mile was for

ty-one seconds. The much looked for

tire trouble was lacking, despite the

great speed.

Both cars were shod with Mlchelins,

and "Win as Usual" Jordan was on deck with a force of men who brought

cheers from the crowds with their wonderfully fast tire changes. De

Palma only changed two tires during the race, and Tetzlaff pulled up only in the seventieth mile to have a rear

tire changed. De Palma's change was made in exactly one minute arad. forty seconds, and Tetzlaff was sent away forty seconds after he drew into the pit.

Several of the local sport writers have been subpoenaed by the district attorney to assist him in unraveling what appears to be a perplexing question to this official. Many times the writer has been asked to deflnitethe difference between a prize fight and a boxing contest, and to these queries I have always given it as my opinion that the term prize fight Is an obsolete one, having died when the old bare knuckle Hays came toy an end.

END TO RACING

IN THE EAST? New York, March 19. The question

of running races on the Metropolitan

tracks this summer still lies in the

balance, according to an Indicative

item of routine business at the meet

ing of the stewards of the Jockey club.

By vote of the stewards the secretary

was instructed to advise Starter Mars Cassidy that "pending uncertain con

ditions the stewards could not give him a definite answer" at this time and

he was therefore released from any obligations. YOUNG MOW ATT
