FIELD DAY BOOMING
CLUBS PUTTING FORTH
SOME SPLENDID TEAMS
Kamehameha Have Strong Combination
But Fight for Victory Will Be
Hard-PunahOu Has
Hard Luck.

The close approach VI the Boys
Brigade field day and the fine weather
which has prevailed lately is squirting
tue various athletic organizations
which are to enter teams for the events
into hard efforts for supremacy and
it is now practically assured that the
field day. despite the fact that 1t has
had to be postponed twice, will be a
great success.
The chances at present seem to
stand in favor Of the Kamehameha
boys. who are to enter n very strong
team, but the Males may also make
bid for fame while Punahous, despite
series of reverses, still has a fight
ing chance and has II no means given
iip the hope of victory.
The withdrawal Of the II. a. C.'s has
reduced the number Of contesting
teams to five. but the best men of that
club will not be absent from the field
as they have been picked up by the
Males and the Kamehamehas.
The Artillery team is somewhat Of
an unknown quantity and it is not
Nnown what they really can do. II Is
said that they have some CraC' men,
but II is not known in what condition
they are.
I The Y. NJ. G. A. will enter some good
men. but this organization Is hamper
ed by the fact that many Of its best
men belong to and will enter Tor Other
clubs in the city.
The kamehameha people have great
expectations for nearly all the events.
ley expect Akana to win the 100 and
the 22O.yard dashes and Scharsch the
440 run. They hold Hardee good for
both me high and low hurdles and ex
pect that Hardee will take the honors
in both the high jump and pole vault.
Pu is supposed to be good for the
broad jualp, while they pin their faith
} to Kauai on the hammer throw and
shot put. Richards Is another good
; man for the shot put.
Tue Kamehamehas are also pretty
sure of winning the relay hace and
with good reason, as they are putting
up-sn exceedingly strong team which
Il will be hard for any of the Other
clubs to beat. In some OF the events
the Rams may be reckoning without
their host. Ii Miller of the Punahous
for instance, Is in good trim. he ought
to win the high jump and high hurdles.
and Duffie OF the Males may prove to
be good at the hammer, although he
at present is an unknown quantity.
PUBIC OF tho Males may siso prove q
better man than Kauai at the shot put
The Punahous have, since the post
, ponemcnt of the event from the day
first given. met with very hard luck
which has reduced their team cOnsid,
erably in strength. Humes, upon
i whom they were banking for the role

Q versity OF Washington. has gone TO
. Manila. Miller. the crack high hurdler
and high jumper, who won both these
1 events in the meet with the Kamcha
. mehas. strained muscle in his leg IN
doing so and, although he will enter,
, his injury Is not as yet well and may
: prove injurious to his performance.
! Williamson. who should have done the
u low hurdles and have entered in tho
relay, has a bad cold which has forced
= him 10 quit training and may keep him
$ from entering altogether. Charley
, Dole, who has entered for five events
; has strained a muscle in his leg and
+ may consequently not show up as well
W, as usual: while Campbell. who was
good in the pole vault and the broad
jump, and Allen who got second in the
