Males Also Successful
in Thanksgiving
Games.

| The Diamond Heads and Y II. 9 A
furnished the opening socE1er game a
the bail park yesterday.
Despite the wretched weather, the at
tendance was fair.
Captain Grune Of the Heads won the
toss and elected TO defend the Waikiki
| goal.
When the teams lined up it was no.
ticed that Al. Williams. the Heads bril-
| liant outside right, was not on the
| field.
Waiting for this player 10 turn up,
the Diamond Heads played a man
| short for fifteen minutes.
| "Old Hoss'' F1ddes held down the
post of outside left for the Heads. 1t
| was his first appearance on the foot
| ball field this year.
The field was slippery and continuous
rain made the ball greasy to a degree
that initiated against anything like
accurate passing.
The Y. II. c. A. ranks were strength
ened by the inclusion of Stanley Beard
more and L. G. Blackman, both OF
whom showed 10 good advantage.
Considering the state of the ground,
both sides played remarkably fast in
The initial game.
The Diamond Heads claimed con,
tinual attention by their fast rushes
down the field.
Toward the end Of the first half the
Initials broke through the Heads de-
fense. Gleason slipping and in falling
contriving TO head the ball through his
own goal.
The Heads tried hard to balance the
account in the first half, but failed.
After ten minutes play in the second
half the Heads evened the score, after
2 lively rough and tumble in their op-
ponents' goal
Five minutes later George Desha
scored a second goal for the Heads
on Fernandez's center.
The Christians then made a strong
rally and, with only ten minutes left to
play, netted goal.
The Heads renewed their efforts and
managed to score another goal. despite
the desperate defensive efforts OF their
opponents.
Fiddes. who scored the last and de-
Gliding goal, played an excellent game, |
considering that he was short of prac- |
tise. He Will undoubtedly be of vaIu-
able assistance to the Heads in their
fight for league honors.
The weak spot of the Heads is on |
their left wing.
(2) MALES VS.. PCNAHOUS 0)
The second game, between the Males |
and Punahous, resulted in win for /
the former by The score of 2 to o. |
Rain fell heavily at intervals
throughout the game.
Punahous had the best of the play |
from the start and should have scored
twice in the first half but for chances
missed on the forward line.
The Punahous played the better game
throughout, out the proverbial Maile
luck came to the rescue and the green
and gold boys scored a goal in the
first half.
Rain made the ground terribly un-
playable in the second half. Males

Punahous' goalkeeper was taxed to the
