Police 80 8 80 A
The slaughter of Vivian Richardson
IN the first; legacy of runs for the
Male Ilimas in the fourth and sixth;
a tie in the eighth; the collapse of the
Police when the alarm sounded; the
indomitable playing of the Inhabitants
of the green and gold sweaters, and
such is the history in brief of Satur-
days game.
1t was a good sized crowd which
dared the perils of the trip to Punahou
to witness the struggle OF the tail
enders. but the discomfort incident to
by the surprising uniqueness of the
game.
The proceedings opened by the Males
catching the scorers eye once. A nice
young man named Richardson was
good enough to offer to supply the
meant well, and should receive credit
for his good intentions. He faced the
Finest one at a time, and they liter
ally tumbled over each other in; fran
tic endeavor to get a crack at the good
thing while it lasted. He was natural
dice to the Merchant street brigade,
A frosted bon bon, perpetual delight
SAY it was a cruel surprise to see
those policemen go round-one would
never have suspected that they pos
sessed such sprinting abilities.
Dots a fine dingl" exclaimed a
/Nt-& Of ler. Aar-Ic n
when the circus was at its height.
Richardson stuck to his post truly
and well. He might have been a gen
eral reviewing a regiment of cavalry
on a kite-shaped track Finally the
continued circling of the Police upset
him. He turned dizzy, reeled helpless
ly, and gave place to George Clark
grace to tot up the tallies which in
process of time he announced as being
to 1.
After which you couldn't buy Police
stock for love or money.
The Police ran in a couple more in
the second and they were, metaphor
ically speaking, clubbing themselves
out of sheer eXuberance.
The third was productive of one for
the Males.
In the fourth the kahuna of the
Male Iiimas got to work in no uneer-
tain fashion. Just how it came about
is a moot question, but the most gen.
orally accepted theory is that the ka-
huna prompted a small boy to yell
haul i'm at juncture when the bases
We're thickly sprinkled with Male men.
The effect on the custodians of the law
was magical they came to attention,
gazed steadfastly in an opposite direc-
ton to which the call came from, and
suffered their opponents to pile up 5,
making the score IL to z.
''Seven-eleven,' natural dice"
shoot you two and a half yelled the
crowd.
! at the end of the fifth twas IA to
| 9 in favor of the Police. The Males
netted 3 in the sixth, making the score
! IA to II. The seventh was barren. A
compilation Of a brace by the Males in
| the eighth made the score IA all. The
spectators writhed with excitement.
The Males went to the bat. They
garnered a single.
| Murder" fire" beer" shouted the
crowd in their unholy efforts to bring
| the work of the Police to naught.
| With two men out, the doughty
| ChilIingworth shook his stick time or
| two and pasted a low one between first
and second.
Cheese it fellows" yelled an adher-
ent of the bluecoats to the Male lima
| baSemen, mere comes the deputy.
The ruse failed to work, however, and
| the fielders stood their ground.
| The deputy sheriff made the base all
right. but fell into trap laid by one
| of the crowd, who told him that he
| knew where Fujihara, the missing
murderer, was. He stepped from the
/ bag to ask his informant to be good
enough to write it down, and Paehaole
attended to his case.
| And SO It came to pass that the Male
Ilimas won their first league game by
one run.
/ The official score:
! MALE ILIMAS.
