OUR BOYS GATHER
LAURELs ABROAD

Alfred Castle is winning baseball
honors for himself and for Harvard
in the university games being played
in the East. Beginning the season as
spare pitcher in the Harvard nine
he has won through consistent work
a place in the regular firing line in all
the big games. In the southern tour
of the team Castle was their mainstay,
throwing in the hardest game of the
trip against the Annapolis College and
tanning nine of the batsmen.
This record was beaten by him on
May II. when in the box against the
University of Pennsylvania he struck
out twelve and held the hard hitting
Pennsylvanians down TO five scattered
hits. Through the game only two men
came up before him and walked. The
game was a ten innings one and went
to Harvard with score of 4 to l.
Another most interesting point in
connection with this match was that
the single tally secured by the Penns.
was brought in on a single by Kauka
Jrdd. also of Honolulu, who got his
hit in the third innings.

REMNANT
CHASERS
Third Round Today on
the League Baseball
Diamond.

Again will the voice of the fan be
heard; the baseball gladiators once
| more contending in the baseball arena
today for the coveted pennant The
first to combat will be the Punahous
and Males and the second a battle of
the giants, the Honolulus and Kameha-
mehas. Both of the latter teams have
won their only game played and the re-
suit will be large determining fac
tor in the final result for the champion
ship flag. The teams are very evenly
matched and have stubbornly contest
ed many a baseball battle; in fact
some of the closest games on the local
diamond have been played by these
teams. Reuter- and Jones win be the
battery for the Kamehamehas and Joy
and Soares for the Honolulus. 1t is
possible that JOY may not pitch the en-
tire game as the Honoluius have hard
game on the Both and may conclude to
save him. The game between the
Males and Punahous will not be with
out interest, both teams having lost
the two games they have played and
naturally objecting to taking the rear
most position. The Males have inn
proved great deal since their initial
game and will make a strenuous strug-
gle to gain their first victory; the Pun
ahous will also use their best endeavors
to keep from the bottom and can be de-
pended upon to strain every nerve to
obtain victory.
Gleason, the crack first baseman of
the Honolulus, is suffering from an
ugly attack of boils and viii probably
be replaced on first by George Bruins.
Jimmie Williams viii probably pitch
part OF the game for the Honolulus; in
that event Joe Fernandez probably will
hold down the I'd bag.
The Kamehamehas viii have their
full team, possibly the strongest aggre-
cation they ever had, and will make a
strong bid for the game.
The Punahous will have their usual
lineup and Eddie Desha will endeavor
to puzzle the Zebras.
Fenner viii pitch for the Males and
if he has the backing of his team
should make a strong bid for the game.
On Wednesday there will be two
battles royal; the Honolulus meeting
the Oahus and the Punahous the Ka-
these are four evenly
matched teams and the result can only
be In the knees of the gods.
The day will be holiday and rec
ord crowd is presaged.
The trustees of the league are con- |
sidering the allowing of baseball on
Sunday, the winter league having APP
piled for this permission. 1t is posi-
bic that something will be done.
1t is perhaps not generally known
that there is model community here
in respect to accepting Umpire Bower s
decisions without question. While Mr..
Bower is an excellent man he is only
human and elsewhere there are riots
and umpires sometimes have to have
police protection.
Considering the size Of the commun-
ty, there is reason to congratulate the
city on the class of baseball put up
lere; there are few college teams that
could best our local boys.
The moral feature is also thing
honolulu can congratulate itself on;
games are won and lost on their merits
he latter not always being the fact
elsewhere.
