for the first touchdown. Lyman
Kicked the goal.
After theE kickoff the Rams netted
good gains on end plays and carried
the ball to the 25-yard line, where q
tumble lost all their chances. In the
last few seconds of play Townsend
made the sensational play that is
above described. The goal was miss
cd, making the score read ITO.
Credit is due the entire eleven rep
resenting Oahu College. The backs
made good gains, but they were well
supported by the forwards. Lyman,
Desha and Pa were the ground-gain-
ers and all covered themselves with
glory.

Kan! Kan! Ran! Kan! Oahu!
The Blue and Gold trailed the Blue
and White in the dust yesterday on
the Punahou field At the end of the
second half the score stood Oahu IL,
Rams 0. The College boys had turn
ed the tables on the Rams and 1t was
the signal for much yelling and mer-
rymaking on the part of the Punahou
students, who certainly worked their
lungs overtime.
AS to the game itself, 1t was much
better than the first match played
Letween the same teams, and the
Cahus especially showed much i'm
rovement. They out-played the
Kams in speed, teamwork and inside
football. They showed superior
coaching and always got the jump on
their rivals.
The Kams' weakest point was the
handling of punts and 1t was through
divers inability to squeeze the ball
That such a poor showing was made.
Time after time this player fumbled
the ball at critical stages of the
game.
Babbitt and johnson as officials
did good work, but the same old kick
was registered by the losing team. 1t
Is wonder that anyone will act In
the capacity of official for such kick
ers. Some of the rooters along the
side-lines, who do not know foot
ball from a pumpkin, were the loud
est in their Grabbing" and when
Naukana was thrown off the field by
Babbitt for dirty playing the remarks
that some of the side-line Indians
made were disgraceful. Naukana de-
served all that he got and more, too.
Babbitt was perfectly right in his ac-
ton and 1t will make players think
smash the faces of such handsome
lads as Joe Pa.
The game ended in a sensational
manner. Just after Lyman had boot
cd the ball the whistle blew--the ball
fell in McKenzie's arms but was fun
bled, Townsend gathered in the
oval and sprinted to a touchdown
amid strenuous kicks from the Rams,
who claimed that the ball was dead
when the whistle blew. The rules
read that the ball is never dead UNI

American Temperament and Art.

The majority of the men and women
who gave American life it's form an!
direction were not the children of an
artistic race. though they were the
heirs of great literature. They de-
scended from people who have never
pursued art as an end and whose first
/, instructive expression In meeting great
experiences has never been artistic,
but who have never divorced action
from vision nor failed in the long run
to match power in action with some
kind of beauty in speech. From its
English ancestry the country has in
herited an ingrained and ineffaceable
idealism of nature, which enormous
tasks and hitherto incredible prosper
ity have at times smothered and blight
ed, but never destroyed. From other
races have come richer temperament.
quicker sensibilities. craving for JOY
and love Of beauty for it's own sake.
