SUCCESSFUL FIELD DAY.
The first field day of the Puunene
Athletic Association held on the Folio
grounds of Kahului on the 18th was a
great success. Crowds of people, more
than a thousand cosmopolitans in gala
attire, all bent on a good time, filled
the new and comfortable grandstand
to repletion and overlooked into
grounds near the scene of the sports.
The entertainment began somewhat
after 10 o'clock a. m and continued
till nearly shutdown. The official list
of events was as follows:

I pig.

In the first event the pig, though well
creased, was too tame and when freed
instead of running away calmly began
to nibble grass in spite of the scream
ing and laughter of the multitude. 1t
proved too easy victim, and the
lucky man { MeXican) bore away the
fat porker to his home where a luau
was soon in progress.
In the second event the pole, proved
too slippery and climbing 1t with shlns,
knees, arms and hands seemed impos-
sible. Finally a combination was eff
ifected and Manuel Vasconcellos reach
ed the top. He, however, had to divide
up the prizes among the three other
contestants for to win the event he
stood on the shoulders of the third man
and the third on the shoulders of the
second and the second on the should
ers of the first, who had his feet plant
ed firmly on the ground.
The tug of war between the seven
brawny men of Puunene and seven
muscular longshoremen of Kahului was
indeed the most attractive feature of
the day /
For 10 mnutesa the mighty struggle
lasted, the sides being evenly match
ed, though the central mark on the
cable slightly favored Puunene. The
Kahuluis were always on the defen-
sive, contenting themselves with rest-
ing the systematic Juggling of their OPP
ponents. Finally amid loud cheers
Puunene gained almost a foot and
then the required distance, winning the
event and the prize of SIS. Henry
Daniel was the anchor man for Pun
meme and Puuiwa for Kahului with
John Makahio as captain.
The baseball game was a disappoint-
ment, for the Morning Stars outclass- /,
ed the Puunenes, shutting them out by
the score of is to 0. George Cummings, |
VIM. Horner, John Profit and one or
two others played good bali for Pun /
meme but the machine-like team and
heavy batting of the Stars, not to men,
ton the excellent work In the hoX by
the Kruger brothers. We're too supe-
rior to be vanquished by a pcked-up
nine. however, brilliant the efforts of
