This was the collegiate game.
The second game was between Scot

FREETH IN GREAT SHAPE.
The Hawaiian Swimming Club held
their first practise at the Hotel Baths
last evening and all expressed their
utmost satisfaction at the accommo-
dations offered by the huge tank Not
only did the boys go through their
practise stunts but they had general
good time, and in fact they had so
much fun that it was all that Manager
Wood could do to drag the lads away
from the taboggan chute erected over
the water. Shooting, the chutes is a
new stunt locally to the boys.
Geo. Freeth, the captain of the club,
sprung a new one on the boys when
he performed a triple somersault from
the flying trapeze. Just think of turn
ing over three times in the air at a
height of 20 feet before striking the
II.
water Freeth also made some heau-
tiful dives from the high dives and
spring board.
The turns necessary in tank racing
was somewhat new to most of the boys
as they had never before INDUCED In
any tank swimming. Ernest Kopke,
who has been instructed by Cavill in
this stunt, impaired his knowledge to
the others.
Geo. Cooke, who once held the record
for the plunge, thinks that with lit
tie practise he can beat his old record.
George claims that he is stronger than
before.
Billy Roth, Cunha and Hustace did
some sprinting that made the others
sit up and take notice.
When the Hawaiian Swimming Club
makes its initial appearance on Satur-
day night they are sure to make big
hit.
