HALE|WA holiday
MUSIC AND GOLF

A goodly crowd of merrymakers held
holiday at Haleiwa this week end, while
the natives gathered from near and far
to hear Berger's band discourse sweet
melodies.
The arrangements of Manager Church
We're, as usual, excellent, starting on
Saturday evening with luau and dance
and running over to the departure of
the crowded special last evening with
something interesting for every hour of
the day. The band attracted every ma
tive within reaching distance and the
lawn was crowded with appreciative
with his music, starting the moment
his train got in and giving several num-
bers over and above the regular pro-
gram announced for the afternoon. The
vocal numbers OF Mrs. Alapaf and Ellis
We're cordially welcomed.
The golf was most successful, the best
net and gross scores yet registered in
regular tournament being turned in by
the winner, Byron K. Baird, who play
ed a brilliant game. The links were
found in fine condition, Mr. Church
having made new browns and generally
worked on the course to the great sat-
isfaction of the players. The scores of
the first six men We're all we'll down
and While the handicapping of the local
players from Waialua district We're
somewhat grumbled at as being too lib
erai, their actual scores were hard to
obtain and the winter was so we'll
ahead of the second man, a Waialua
player, as to leave little dissatisfaction
with the general result. Mr.. Baird will
never himself get as liberal a handicap
as hitherto, with but one or two ex-
ceptions, his score has never shown
signs of such excellence as he exhibited
yesterday His driving was good but
his approach shots constitute his best
game, landing him consistently close
to his holes. Twice he dropped in
difficult bunkers and twice got cleverly
out of his trouble.
The scatch man, Mr.. Hartwell, though
he made a fair score of 102, three above
Bairds, and the low handicap men, fell
ed Mr.. Hartwell round, but he was off
form, and Baird, playing quietly around
with Allan Dunn, minus spectators was
putting up the game of the day, beating
Dunn who was supposed on form to give
him five points by eight in the eighteen
holes
The second man made a fair gross
of 100, but there were many murmur
ings over his handicap of 20, as he had
been known to make the course in as
good as his gross score within the past
few weeks. Johnson of aWialua came
next with net of SO and gross of ia.
Rawiins with a gross of 106 equalled
the second man but his handicap only
allowed him 81 net. Next came Dunn,
gross 107, net 80, and Thayer. gross los,
net 103 all Is handicap men closely
matched and all showing good scores.
Only four ladies materialized for their
tournament, Mrs. Allan Dunn and Mrs.
w. Rawlins scratch, Mrs. High 5. Mrs.
Sheldon 20. The scratch players We're
off their game and Mrs. Dunn's gross of
SO was overtopped on net scores by Mrs.
Sheldon Sc and Mrs. High IS. Mrs. Dunn
repeated the course later in "A gross.
There We're twenty-four entries, two
being disqualified for playing ha.f the
course and then resting two hours for
lunch. Neither of their scores would,
however. have landed them winners.
