Joy Leads basr and Pitchers With Great POLO MEN PROFIT BY
'''s p I ' S. uus'0" THE COACHING OF PARSONS

Despite the fact that the polo men
Of Kauai and Maui are experiencing
some difficulties in getting together
the teams which should be at work in
practice for the Thanksgiving tcurna-
ment, there is a confident feeling here
that there will be no trouble in the Sc
curing teams from each Of the other
islands for that week of sport. The
outlook is too that Hawaii will send a
four for the play.
There will be match here this after
noon which will show some changes in
the positions of the men on the con-
testing teams. The absence of E. S.
Damon will mean the placing of Harold
Castle at No. 1 for the Blues, and Pot
ter will play in the place usually occu-
pied by Judd, No. 2, the latter player
going to the Whites in the same place.
The teams will play as follows:
Whites-Irvine, Single, Judd and
Brown, with Erdman as substitute.
Blues-Dole, Dillingham;, Potter and
Castle.
The presence of Mr.. John Parsons,
the English polo player, in Honolulu
thus early in the polo season has been
opportune.
The suggestions that he has made to
the local polo men are extremely val
liable. Polo as played in Honolulu is
self-taught. and Mr. Parsons is the first
expert of the game to give the Oahu
Club the benefit of any coaching. Com
bination was the chief thing urged by
Mr. Parsons. He found that the men
here had correctly interpreted the play
ing of Nos. 1 and 4, but Nos. 2 and 8
were incorrectly playing together, max
ing this position practically inter-
changeable.
His idea of team play is for Nos.
and to play as forwards and 8 and 4
play together as backs. This relation
should be constant, except when side
The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1902-09-27

Is attacking; then and only then does
become a forward.
In the practice game which Mr.. Par
sons coached last Wednesday after
noon he insisted that No. was to be
the only man on the ball all the time,
but that this was not to be his whole
duty and that he should ride off the op-
posing No. 8 should any other man on
his side be in possession of the ball
The men have had in an immature
shape many of the ideas which have
but one thing taught is an innovation
and step forward in the game clearly
appreciated. This is in the method Of
starting the play at the beginning of a
period or after goal. Nos. 1, and 3
were ordered to line up in the center
of the field close together with their
1, 2 and were directed to line up
against them in the same way with
reference to each other, and with the
noses of their ponies almost touching
the other ponies. Then to start the
game Mr.. Parsons gently lobbed the
ball to strike the ground between the
hoofs of the No. ponies with sufficient
force so that it would stop dead in the
middle of the scrimmage.
1t was found that this made the OPP
ening of the game absolutely even to
both sides, as both had equal chances
to tap the ball either straight ahead or
to their own backs. 1t lessons the
chances OF taking the ball from the
start right down to the goal in about
three strikes as have often been done
by No. under the former method of
starting the play.
1t was a matter of great regret to
the local polo men that Mr.. Parsons
was unable to stay longer, for they
have found him most agreeable gen.
tleman and a keen lover of the game.

have been over the course to be sailed
once and were able to get on to some
wrinkles as to how to run it out best.
The Gladys came in long after the La
PaIoma in the last run around Rabbit
Island but Commodore Hebron assures
the racing community that it will not
happen again, although Clarence Mac
farlane is smiling and says he can make
the race, with a good wind, in time con-
siderably under the limit that has been
set.
Fred Whitney will have his crew at
work today in rigging the Helene. She
in now anchored in the row.
The four yachts will take as a start
ing signal the eight o'clock whistle on
Sunday morning. They start from
line even with the lighthouse and the
Healani boat house, go out the channel
between the spar and bell buoys, and
then stand away to round Rabbit Island
and return finish at the same place.
If the event is run under the time limit
the yachts should show up again here
late in the afternoon.

III tate in the week. Francis NJ Brooks
will be the coach for the year and he is
nard at work getting his men to fan
on the ball and to handle kicks. C. f.
Chillingworth is the present captain.
The Males are getting into shape; as
wen, Coach Percy Benson being out
with some seventeen or eighteen men
each evening. He thinks he will have
a fast team, but has not yet taken any
steps to class his men. They are kick
ing and catching well, and are taking
his ideas as to plans readily. The
squad works generally on the field Eva
of Nuuanu street, just mauka of the
Beretania street hill, and then a run to
Robertson's gives the men a chance for
shower bath before donning their street
dress.
The Punahous have not got to prac-
tice. as yet. The team will be taken
out this week by John Waterhouse, the
captain, and he will begin shaping his
men so as to have them in form for
the opening games. There was a meet
ing of the Punahou Athletic Club yes
terday at which time Clarence H. Cooke
was chosen manager of the football
team.
j. 0. Carter, Jr., was reelected man
ager of the baseball team for next year
and Steere was chosen for the cap
taincy, There was some discussion but
it was decided that the funds of the
two teams should be kept apart and
this means that the baseball men will
have a balance to begin work with in
the spring. The matter of regular
organization for the club was discussed
and Rawlins, Armstrong and Soper
were appointed a. committee to draft a
plan for permanent organization.
There are steps being taken to inter-
est the business men of the city in the
matter of a trophy for the football
teams and some encouragement has
been received. A canvass will be made
after the league is formed.

BASEBALL MEMS RECORDS
ON PAST SEASONS PLAY

NOW that the baseball season is over
and the men who won the first place
have been feted and honored, the aver
ages of the seasons play are out and
the showing of the individuals is OBJ
tainable. The averages here given
show the character of the work of the
various men in the field and indicate
that there are men here who stand high
IN the ranks of baseball players.
Joy leads the list of pitchers and his
strike out record is a truly wonderful
one. In eleven games he famed ia
men, and this record is rather unique in
the history of the game here. Lemon
with eighty-four strike outs in the
same number of games follows next
after JOY. This, however, is the only
was not the best fielder of his position
Made up on the basis of the field work
the best team that could be made up
here would consist of the following
men: Kekuewa, KAN, catcher; Clark,
M. l., pitcher; Leslie, H A c., first
base; steere, P. A c., second base;
Williams. H. A. c., shortstop; Akau,
M. l., third base; Waterhouse, P. A c.,
Koki, KAN, Anderson, U. S. c., field
ers. The oldest point of the records is
that in the matter of base running the
H. A C. has no man better than fifth,
and yet is much the best in the general
average of team running. The records
are as follows:
