ISLAND ATHLETICS
FIELD DAY PRODUCES EXCEL
LENT SPORT
Kamehameha Boys Win Great Victory.
Events Closely Contested-Seven Rec
Ords Broken.

Perfect weather made perfect racing
al the Boys Brigade Field Day on Sat
urady afternoon. The whole affair was
wonderfully successful and free from
even the smallest bitches. The pro-
gram went off promptly, a feat not too
often performed at race meets and for
which all honor must be given the Off
Gals of the day, there We're no protests
and seven island records were beaten.
The crowd that gathered was large
one and filled the grandstand to over
flowing. 1t was an orderly one too,
even when Kamehameha School i'm the
person of her victorious boys hardly
knew what to do with themselves in
the strenuous joy of winning. The cup
was won and well won and there was
cheerful spirit of pluCky rivalry
throughout the day that speaks highly
for the craftsmanship of island boys.
Hopelessly behind, Punahou dOggedly
stuck to their determination to win
what they could and with the gritty
performance of KaulukOu at the pole
vault and the last struggles in the re
lay race showed the stuff they were
made of.
Amid the excellent form and natural
aptitude displayed, two boys stand out
very prominently and under the requis-
lite training, would rank high in Ameri-
Hardee. Akana's 22O yards in % 2-5
seconds was excellent work on the soft
track and Hardee's winning pole vault
OF ten feet eleven inches is a really
marvellous feat for a mere youth. There
have been plenty of big collegiate
vaults where the winner did not beat
Kaulukou's ten feet eight inches. Har-
dee's high jump was also unusually
good.
wv, A. g., +,1-,r, i,+o ,o,,,,i,7 a.,,a ri o,,
that the boys training has all been
amateur and somewhat desultory on
that and other accounts, Saturdays
sports were astonishing in results. The
presence of one or two athletically in
clined and trained masters at the col
leges who would institute regular train
ing tactics would produce some island
| records over here that would send the
mainland figures a glimmering.
The distribution of Wreaths to the
winners by Princess KawananakOa and
| her court of youthful beauties was a
| pretty idea, well carried out. The Ka-
mehameha Boys Glee Club and the
| general union spirit shown by the boys
in cadet gray helped the pleasure of
the afternoon appreCiably as did the
presence Of the band.
