! l.. p. Scott. Timekeepers at finish
Chris Willis and II. E. Harvey.
The relative positions of the boats
will be signalled by means of flags at
the half and the mile stakes. For in
stance, if the LeilaniS are ahead the
orange and black flag will be waved.
| The Myrtle flag will be red and the
Healani blue. All will be large enough
to be seen by the crowd at the finish.
! This is something new and is admitted
ly a good idea.
George Fuller yesterday found him
self wholly unable to row in the Myrtle
Junior crew on account of a bruise on
his ankle. William Lyle has been put
in in his place.
A. +. Judd will be stroke of the Myr-
tie seniors. o.. Sorenson was stroke last
year. The new man is'a good one and
will be heard from The Healani senior
crew lost Klebahn some months ago
and tomorrow will fall back on Paul
Jarrett FOR stroke. The latter is prob
ably not as strong as the former, but
pulls a good oar.
In the Myrtle junior crew is Arthur
Giles, who has been coXswain for the
club several seasons. He rs brand new
in the crew. w. Alvarez also new, will
be coxswain in both races.
The Healanis junior crew is almost
wholly new but is conceded to be a
good one.
The stakes were put out Wednesday
and so far as the course is concerned
everything is ready for the events.
Seats have been arranged under the
trees at the railway wharf. The Ha-
waiian band will be stationed at this
point.
The railway people have made the
round trip fare rs cents. 1t is expected
that the early afternoon train will take
the Healani and Myrtle crews, band
'rOntArG' q nf a
The special train will leave the depot
at $3.50 sharp 1t will carry cars enough
to accommodate all that may wish to
go. The first race will start soon after
this train reaches the Peninsula, which
will be about or very shortly after 4
o'clock. The return trains will leave
as soon as the races are over.
All sorts of funny or freak wagers
have been made on the races. One
Myrtle hacker has agreed with a Hea
lani to ride a mule bareback around
town Sunday, carrying staff with the
Healani's colors on it, if his first crew
is beaten.
Other Myrtle wagers standing at this
. office and open to Healanis are:
1. Will run one of Pains car track
scrapers from the head of Fort street
to the water front, if the Myrtle seniors
do not win.
g Will run a Japanese ice cream
wheel barrow around town, ringing the
) little vendors bell the while, If the
, Myrtle juniors do not win.
There have been any number of wa
gers to walk from the Peninsula tC
town. This seems to be a faVorite bet
Indications now are that the highway
will be full of downcast pedestrians to
morrow afternoon. The distance II
, twelve good miles, and the roads arr
= hilly and dusty.
Coming down to brass tacks 10 Il
: difficult to pick the winner this year
With the senior crews there has beeI
no display of superiority, so far as cal
be Judged by training. 1t is an unmis
taxable fact that the Myrtles are NOR
' enthusiastics, though this lis usual Wit
, champions. Some of the Healani de
! preston is due to the fact that Kleh
ahn is not pulling. Klebahn's init
mates feel this most.
There is no lack of enthusiasm II
. both of the junior crews. A hard tigh
U will be put up between the bantams
U Wagers upon them have thus far bee
e even. Withal, this may be said of tn
e senior crews, the difference being tha
D there are fewer Healani takers"
:. A fine start has been made in raising
money for Regatta Day, which is
