cidents which must figure in all such
contests. The play was never allowed
to lag, the men getting into it with
decision and speed, riding fast and in
some instances recklessly, as is shown
by the number of fouls allowed, three
being marked UP in one period. The
STICK work was not of the highest order
all the time during the first period, for
the misses were many and in many
cases unaccountable.
Maui disappointed most. The work of
the canary clad men was not UP to
form. Neither was it possible for them
TO make their horses show the speed
that they are known to possess. Frank
Baldwin had to ride Foxy with a whip,
and then he was held safe by Single
very often, on one occasion Dillingham;
clearly outriding him on Puuloa, in a
race down field. This was of course
not the rule, for often Baldwin was able
to make such a squirt that he could
clear the field and bankhand ball on
the goal line, saving the score which
seemed certain for Oahu.
Won Tempsky was most seriously out
of form in the first half of the game.
He missed with frequency when the
stroke was fair and its failure was
fatal Later, especially in the last
period he was in better shape and some
of his stops and passes forward were
fine as any seen on the field. Harry
Baldwin played the careful and consist
ent game that has marked his work
since he entered the list of games, but
Dole could not be held Wilbur both
rode and drove well, but on the whole
there We're some eight goals missed by
the narrowest of yards, the Maui men
driving too hard in their approach
shots.
To Dole must be given the greatest
individual credit for the victory of Ca
hu. Re was in the play from the mo-
nent the ball dropped and never did
| he slack his work. His driving and
placing was excellent, and he saved
goals time and again for the team, by
his heady play. Dillingham; has not

| He was everywhere, and in the slang
of the day, was there with the goods"
at that. He made some of the most
| brilliant strokes of the entire play. once
driving 100 yards by cross stroke as
he passed the ball on the gallop, for a
goal. Likewise he gave a splendid ex-
i hibition of Craftsmanship, for his pony

in the play without losing his right of
way.
| Single played game which was
| brilliant in spots, steady and consistent.
| He drove fairly we'll, but had ill-luck
with horses and gear. He received the
severe fall of the day, his horse going
down and rolling over him but without

ton in better form than in practice.
Judd was too much for Won Tempsky
most of the time. riding off in form
and on more than one occasion when
the ball was up to him stroking well.
Once elaboration cost him a goal but
/ generally speaking he was in form.
| OF the riding in general it must be
characterized as fast. Many strokes re-
! garded as misses must be credited as to
! the rider who sometimes only by the
! hardest work got up in time to throw
! the would-be driver out of position for
| the hit. In this sense the exhibition
was fine one and too much credit can
not be given to the local four for its
! fine team work, which gave each man
| knowledge just where his fellows were
| on a particular play.
| Maui lacks the completeness of or
ganization, in that the men, individual
lily fine players, cannot get together
without more constant work and this
| is not afforded them. The field on which
/ they work too, is not up to the local one
either in surface or turf, and the result
! is that there is a great deal lost in
! placing. With all these drawbacks the
