The ma chine, which was built tn Portland, .will be driven by a Portland boy and will La watched by . thousands of Portland people. '-' '. Christofferson,' the builder, and in ventor 'of various new arrangements, first came into prominence here in 1908. when he drove a Stoddard-Day ton .car in tbe first automobile races held for the Wemme trophy. He had a lot' of hard lock that year and was unable to finish, lie drove a good race while he was In the running, however. ! ' The next year Christofferson was al so af the wheel of the Stoddard-Dayton and this year, with such pilots as Bert Dlngley, Murray - Page, "Cannonball" Murray, Hamlin and Arnold opposing him, brought the Stoddard in in second position, his highest position in a race that year. ?';.' ."y-J -.,..,;-. v ; Invented Carbureter.

' '.'V :,,:,!. ...y". . v,--".i Last winter ChrlstoffersonV inven tive brain got to working and his car bureter, known to the world as the Christofferson-Woods carbureter, was patented i and placed on the market. With, the carbureter off his mind, he turned to the latest problem Of the world, the aviation problem,.--, i, It took a long while to build the aer oplane in which Christofferson plans to flyln ho Angeles in January-and it cost a" lot of money. Had it not ' been for the mechanical skill of the bflilder it would, have cost a lot more. The machine Is, from top to 'bottom, home made yet its trim linen, the bark of the motor and the faet that on its first trial It flew testify to. the worth of the machine. " Experience XJmJrted. : Christofferson's efforts at being a bird man have been limited here " be cause of the lack of a proper place to fly. He, with the Manning brothers, has been working near the .Twelve Mile house, on the base -line road, east 6f the city, but, owing to the position of the track there, it Is unsuitable. He nas demonstrated that the machine will fly, however. ' -As regards other aeroplanes it la, of course very' 'much the' Sfuneryet its controlling factors are claimed to be much superior to those of other ma chines.

The rear of the machine, with the motor running, can be lifted with one's lit tle finger.-';- f v In balancing the machine ' this sen sitiveness is also the prime factor. It has been demonstrated in the flights which Christofferson has made that he has good control of the machine.. The control is attached to his body a is the balancing planes in the Curtis ma chines, but the way they act, like the wings of a bird will, it is said,' make the machine one of the easiest riding yet invented. , Engines Cans Wo Trouble. 1 The balancing planes are attached to the back of the main planes. 1 When the machine is idle as it was in the picture shown in this section they hang straight down. However, as the motor Is started and the. propellor forces the air back under the planes, these wing like planes extend and are parallel with and a part ,o jtbe Jnaln- plants. :. They are. . attached - to cables . which are strapped around the driver's body" so that when Tie sways to either' side the opposite plane is brought down and the machine tilted back to its normal posi tion. , ,i The . power of the ' machine Is fur nished by a BO-horsepower engine driv ing an especially oenstructed propeller. It is in the engine and propeller build ing that the mechanical abilities of the young inventor have been most tested and that be. succeeded is shown by the fact that his engine has never given him a moment's trouble. ' Engine Weigh 850 Pound. . The engne weighs but 250 pounds and is built throughout of Chrome nickel steel Every piece of this steel was imported from Germany and there was but one man in Portland outside of Christofferson hinwelf who understood Its qualities enough to forge it.
