WIN BASE
BALL GAME

In other parts of the United
D States even a few fans claiming
this city as their home, but wal
luku produces the greatest number of
bowling. screeching and fit-throwing
followers of the national game to its
population, not only on the islands but
in the country, If the record break
ing crowd of Tuesday is a criterion. 1t
was the return match between the Ma
uis and Honolulus. and the play. while
marred by spots of ochre, had in 1t
much of real interest.
Maui presented almost the same team
which appeared here and Honolulu had
| practically the Athletic Club team,
with the exception of Marcallino, who
going into right sent Louis to second
and moved the others to the right one
step. 1t was a battle of the bat in
every sense. for the Mauis on their own
grounds managed to get nine hits off
Joy while the visitors in turn took
fourteen out of the two men opposeI
to them Jackson lasted only four in
nings, and then giving place to Searle,
the Waikapu twirler guarded the CEN
ter garden and watched his successor
during a fusillade which meant hits
and runs.
But the crowd was one of the fea-
lures. There were men. women and
children who gathered for the purpose
, OF shouting, II seemed, and they did
not overlook an opportunity to carry
out their design in making up the
greatest crowd of the season. They
shouted when Garcia hit safely in the
/ first when Searle struck out Joy in the
sixth, and over Cummings triple in the
ninth. and in between did some of the
most astounding kind of screeching that
| is possible to imagine. If the team had
played up to the roofing there would
have been only one ending to the game,
the humiliation of the visitors, but
when hits would count they were not in
the wood.
Counting began the first time up.
/ Williams hit to first and his bingle was
too hot for Pickard to handle. Louis
famed and Cunha hit the first ball up
/ for single to right sending Williams
to third, from which corner he counted
a moment later on Hansman's out at
first. Joy was hit by pitched ball and
| according to the rules went to his base
but uled there. The second was the
| heart breaker. With two men out on
lilies Marcallino sent a pop into the
! space behind the pitcher and both
| short and second met for II and ii fell
out of Garcia's hands Williams was
| there for klnk and after steal
! both counted on Louis long hit over
second. Jackson smiled feebly when
! the crowd shouted to strike out Cunha
and sent up bale of hay which the
little man pushed out into the lantana
behind left field for three sacks. The
Honolulu contingent was wild and
when moment later JOY hit over sec
ond and scored his catcher, there was
more joy, the inning netting four, not
a one earned
The comedy of errors in the third
consisted of the first one, when Rose
Grams threw wild and let Thompson
safe. Then on a foul fly and out Cum
minSs tried to stop the runner at sec
ond, the baseman letting the ball go
by and the third in turn falling to han
die COrnwells assist Thompson scored
Cunha tagged up one in the fourth on
his own double and joys triple, and
Louis added a mark on his and Cunha's
doubles in the sixth. Thompson and
Aylett walked in the seventh and when
on Marcallino's out Pickard tried to
catch the former at third and threw
wild they both counted. Again in the
eighth Cunha rounded the bags on his
walk, joys sacrifice and the error of
