ANOTHER GAME
WITH SOLDIERS

Jess Woods has made arrangements
with Lieut.. Watts of the 18th Infantry,
on board the Sherman, for a game to
be played tomorrow, Tuesday, after
noon at $3.50 o'clock at the league
grounds. A picked team will be got
ten together of the best players in Ho-
nolulu, to meet the army team that is
supposed to be the very best that
Uncle Sam can produce. This team
come with a great reputation, and
they have very long string Of vic
tories to their credit. While in San
Francisco they beat the Preside Team,
which is considered one Of the fastest
teams on the Coast. If they are as
good as their record goes to show, they
will give the locals a hard rub.
There will be an admission of CSC.
charged to the game, and this will in
clude any part of the stand. There
will be no reserved seats. This will be
good practice for the home team and
they will spring some of the new plays
they have been practising.

BOWL SECOND
ROUND TONIGHT

The second round in the doubles
bowling tourney will take place on the
Baths Alleys tonight. McGrew and
Wilder will bowl Mcclure and Bower
and Robinson and Castle will meet
Schmidt and Young.
These two matches promise to be we'll
contested and some good bowling may
be expected. Castle has set a record
for all ambitious bowlers to shoot at
but it is thought that it will be long
time before it is beaten.
The Oahu College Bowling team will
meet the Custom House team. The
College boys have accepted the sweep
ing challenge of the Customs boys and
it is now up to the latter to set a date.
This will be a match that will be very
interesting.

MANY PLAY FOR
WHITE ROCK CUP
William Simpson Wins Right
to Have Name on
Trophy.

Once more an outsider has won the
right to have his name engraved on
the White Rock trophy. In over two
years that this cup has been played for
monthly, no player has been able to
secure it more than once. and the play
ers are getting rather excited over the
matches. William Simpson was the
lucky man yesterday, winning out with
a gross score of SO, which his handi-
cap of is brought down to IS.
Frank Halstead, c. E. Edmunds and
]. D. Gaines all tied for second place,
at 81 net, and played off to see which

which goes with the distinction of be-
ing the runner-up. In the play Ed
munds won out, with a gross score of
SO, which his handicap brought down
to So. The scores Of the day were aa

HAMPTON WILL
CAPTAIN TEAM
Punah0u Man Elected to Lead
All-HaWaii Against
Fisher.

Bill Hampton is the choice of the
All-Hawaii baseball team that will
meet Mique Fishers All-Star aggrega-
ton next month for captain. Hamp-
ton was elected yesterday afternoon
at the ball grounds after the team had
gone through their practise work. He
is without doubt the very best choice
that the team could have made and
the players showed the very best OF
judgment. Hamp is an all round play
er and a man who knows the game
from all angles His record while he
has played here has been the very best
and he has made a name for himself
and has turned out some very good
teams. He came here with the Marine
team and acted as captain for them.
He afterward captained the Elks and
the Oahu teams. Bill has been playing
in the pitchers box for the LAST few
seasons and while he has always pitch
ed good ball, he was out of his place.
He has never been in the best of SHAPE
to play but nevertheless has always
made a good showing. At the present
time he is holding down job that
will allow him to practise and he will
be in the best possible shape when the
umpire calls play Ball. in the Coast
series of games. Hampton will no
doubt play third base on the team and
from that position he will be able to
hold the boys together and act to the
best advantage as captain.
Bill Vannatta, the captain of the
Kan team, was chosen as the second
captain and in the event that anything
happens to Hampton, Van can take his
place. The job is nothing new to Bill
and he will make an excellent second
captain. Vannatta needs no introduce
ton to the baseball public, as his work
is too well known here. The chances
are that Jim Williams and Vannatta
will be chosen to hold down second
base. Of course it is not definitely
known but it is thought that both
these players will be given a chance to
show what they can do.
Hampton says that he is going right
to work and, with the committee, will
begin to round the team in form. He
means to leave no stone unturned to
bring glory to Hawaii in the. baseball
line. why. just think what it would
mean if we could take a couple of
games off Fishers team" said Bill. |
Every paper in the United States |
would publish an account of it and /
people would wake up to the fact that |
we were on the map. We will at least |
give them a run for their money"
Hampton has the proper spirit and |
there is no doubt but what he will
work just the way he talks.
F. E. Steere has promised to do all |
that he can to round the team in form
and he will be out this week to help /
coach. With Sanborn. of Kauai; /
Steere and Sheldon in the game a fast
team could be gotten together and the |
going of the st. Louis team to the
Orient would make no difference. At
that it is claimed that some of their
best players could not get away to
make the trip even though the thing
did go through.
The idea now is to get together and
play ball. Work will be the by-word
and with the assistance of the public,
Honolulu will be treated to the great
est baseball games that have ever
been attempted in this country.

PALAMAS WIN
SECOND SERIES
Defeat Chinese Athletics in a
Close Game at Aa1a
Park.

Before the biggest crowd that ever
assembled atAala park to witness base
ball game, the Palama A. C. defeated
the Chinese Athletics yesterday after
noon in the championship game for the
second series of the Riverside League
The weather was at its best, which
added the more to the pleasure of the
thousands present.
fifth inning, when the Palamas brought
in four runs. This started the crowd
yelling, until the noise could be heard
several blocks away. Akina, who was
in the box, in place of Lo, the regular
c. A. c. twirler, was somewhat off and
Lo was called in the sixth inning to
help. 1t was probably due to the
heavy batting on the part of the Pa
lamas, that the Athletics met their
Waterloo.
In the seventh inning, Lo brought
home a run for the Chinese team on
the wild throw of Kealoha to first. This
gave the several hundreds of Chinese
who were present a chance to make use
of their voices. In the eighth inning,
the Chinese boys scored two more and
then the Palamas began to guess. How
ever, by the good work of Chas. Paa-
luhi, the biggest box artist in the River
side League, they managed to give the
Athletics a goose egg in the last half
of the ninth inning, thus making the
score to in favor of the Palama
A. C. Next Sunday, two out of three
series will be played between these
two teams for the championship of the
Riverside League.
