bound to win on Saturday Cor at the
end of the first half the score was six
| to five in their favor but casualties on
the field laying low two or three of the
best men weakened their line, and the
Punahous towards the end depended
almost entirely on playing tandem
through the center Among the Puna-
nous Morse displayed head work and a
feet pair Of heels on several occasions

with excitement. Fernandez, the dough-
