The one thing that was noticeable
in the game was the fact that the
Maui ponies We're much stronger and
faster than those on which the Oahu
/ players rode. The Maui men changed
often and always came out with a
fresh horse, which was full of life and
( speed. The mounts seemed all to be
! accustomed to the game and played
( ike veterans. On the other hand, IN
several cases, the Oahu men had to
come in and change their mounts, be-
I ing unable to get any speed out Of
/ them.
FIRST PERIOD.
4 The game started with things looking
black for Oahu. Fleming and DR..
{ Baldwin of that team were both hardly
able TO stay on their horses and Shin
gle played an erratic game at first.
Dillingham; did steady work, which was
at times brilliant, but even at this was
hardly up to his regular game. Short
/ ly after the play began Maui rushed
the ball down the field and scored be-
fore the Oahu team realized where
they We're. The play centered from
then on around the Oahu goal through
out the period, save when Walter Dill
| bingham made a long run up the field,
passing back and forth with Single,
and scored for Oahu. The Maui men
made much longer drives and Krum-
j bhaar barely missed scoring with a
long drive from nearly the center of
the field. After a long scrimmage
around the Oahu goal, Maui scored
once more making the score 2-1 in the
visitors favor at the end of the pc
Rod.
SECOND PERIOD.
Shortly after play was called, F. F.
| Baldwin made long run up the field,
his pony showing magnificent speed,
but he missed the goal by a hair.
Krumbhaar did some fine riding off.
at times taking care of two Oahu men.
and Single, mounted on Johnny B., was
unable 10 get him out of fit of sulks
which destroyed his usefulness.
Oahu was forced to make safety,
and a few minutes later the play was
repeated. The ball would only go a
few yards from the blue and white
goal before it was driven back again
Dillingham; tried mis- best to stop a
drive of S. A. Baldwin's which was 60
ing directly between the posts, but
could not, though he barely tipped the
ball and so scored a goal for his OPP
ponents. Krumbhaar scored a few min
utes later by a clean backhand stroke
from well out in the field. The period
ended with the ball behind Oahus line.
THIRD PERIOD.
When the ball was brought out Dill
bingham had the luck to break his
stick, and, while he was coming over
for another, Maui scored again, in a
redhot scrimmage in which all the
Oahu men had hard luck in missing
strokes When the start was made
once more Dillingham; made pretty
run, going almost the length of the
/ field, and passing to Single as he
neared the Maui goal. Single hit true,
but the ball hit Maui horse and
went behind the line. At this point F.
F. Baldwin, aided by pretty riding off
on the part of S. A. Baldwin, made
a run clean UP the field and scored for
his team. His pony showed speed far
/ beyond any of the Maui mounts, and
he did a fine bit of work. S. A. Bald
win also added another goal for the
Tigers, carrying the ball along half the
length of the field.
Oahu then seemed to wake UP and
through a run started by DR.. Baldwin
and completed by Dillingham; and Shin
gle, made a tally for their side. Maui
evened this up and forced more safeties
from her opponents before time was
up, making the score II IA.
FOURTH PERIOD.
Here Oahu shone. Throughout this
entire fifteen minutes she played al
around Maui, Fleming getting back
into the game and playing like him.
self once more. While his work was
not the most spectacular, he hardly
missed a stroke, and though not as well
mounted as the Maui men, he was in
the right place at the right time. Bald
win also did better and Dillingham; and
Single did not fail when called on.
For the first time Oahu played ar
aggressive game, which was probably
the result of chat which Captain
Dillingham; had with his men during
the intermission. The play was al
around the Maui goal. Dillingham; fl
nally scooped the ball into position and
with a wrist stroke dribbled it through
The next goal of Oahu was made by
Shingle Dillingham; took the ball VI
the field, Single being close behind
and the latter smashed the bamboo
root through while the friends of OAHU
cheered.
]. L. Fleming got the next score fol
Oahu, picking the bah out of a hot
mixup, in which there was more or less
rather rough riding off, and making
the score IA. At this time there seem
ed to be a possibility that Oahu might
tie the score, but it was too late. The
ball was carried down to Oahus goa
by Krumbhaar, and the prettiest
