second part of the second inning and
this is how it happened. The 'Tisers
had already scored one in the first half
of the inning and they were ehortling
in great glee for they thought they
had the home team going. "Going9"
well not exactly; they were coming
and they were coming strong.
Deponte came up with bat and an
arm simply crammed with ginger. He
let Manuel Correa deliver two bad ones
and then went for the third. Up, up
and up the ball flew till it was almost
out of sight and, when it did fall it
was somewhere in the wilds of the
hedge beyond first base. While Harry
Chillingworth was hunting for it, the
genial Frenehman romped to second and
the crowd let loose a few loud ones.
Joe Alameda came up next but he
skied not quite far enough and was
caught out. But up stepped this gall
liant NJ Teves, he looked the pitcher
in the eye and smiled serenely when
the catcher failed to bust him on a
fly, he let one more go by him but of
course, he scorned to fan, so he hit the
ball to the timbers tall then round to
home he ran.
That made two runs as Deponte was
on second at the time and, oh, how the
fans went up IN the air. There was a
long bench near first base where sat the
official scorer and the Advertiser re-
porter. All the, other occupants were
ardent Waialua fans and one dear old
gentlemen with a form like that of
Bacchus and a laugh that would put
a thunder storm to shame, shook so
heartily with merriment that the bench
gave way and they ali fell to the
ground.
1t was an exhibition of enthusiasm
that did everybody's heart good and
even the 'Tisers had to smile at the
merriment. From then on it
was a big balloon ascension. The
'Tisers played poor game and seemed
not to want to hold together and the
Waialuas just simply romped through
them, round them, under them and over
them.
Jim Williams acted as umpire in both
games as the home team did not want
him to play. He certainly made good
in ffty-seven varieties. Any time the
league is looking for an umpire, they

At seven O'Clock this morning those
who happen down at the naval wharves

witness the start of Navy boat race
which will be one of the most inter

The racing crews of the flagship

made off the Healani boathouse, both

entrance to the channel.
Both crews are making their maiden
effort in a match race, but great things
are expected of each. The boat races
in the Navy take precedence over all
other forms of athletic sports, baseball,
football, boxing, ETC., being subordi-

That the race will be for the sur

AUSTIN WHITE
TAKES FIRST
Young Golfer Plays Great Game
and Makes Number Eight
in Two Strokes.

There was well-set up youth on
the links at Haleiwa yesterday by the
name of Austin White. and he played
one of the greatest games of golf ever
seen on the links. He Won the first
round of the Tansan cup tournament,
and he won it by large margin.
Perhaps if you told him that he
played grand game ne would tell you
that he was dissatisfied and that he had
missed strokes that he should have
made, but disinterested watcher fol-
lowed him for one round of the course
and the fact remains that young White
played grand game.
The links at Haleiwa, as all golfsts
know, lie along the sea shore over what
would be undulating sand dunes if they
were not made of coral. The links are
fairly narrow, and the way from green
to green zigzags and crosses itself
manytlmes. The ninth hole is not far
from the start, No. is near No. s, and
SO on down the line There are some
bunkers and very nasty patch of
Jagged coral halfway down that takes
off two points every time a ball lights
in that neighborhood.
From the seventh to the eighth green
is distance of 148 yards, with the
wind nearly abeam of the direction of
the stroke. Above the eighth green is
as the slope has way of taking hold of
it were merely waiting to embrace the
ball and hold it in nice position for
quick put. But like other things, it
viii fool you, and golfers say that it is
one of the hardest green's to negotiate,
a sthe slope has way of taking hold of
the ball and directing it in any direc-
tion but toward the hole.
Austin White made the eighth hole
in two strokes on the second round. and
it was done by a mastery stroke and
a splendid put He drove from No. Z
and his ball lighted squarely on the
green where it stopped. 1t was tride
ON the near side of the hole and it
looked as though it would be an impos-
sibility to make it, but our youthful
champion took a putter from the bag,
figured out the distance and uneven
ness of the ground to a nicely, and
quietly rolled the ball into the hole
It was great piece of work, and Mr..
his opponent, and, by the
way, second man in the tournament,
gave little gasp of establishment
when the ball went down.
This did not actually win for White,
but it came very near doing it, and
was a great example of this young
players cool-headedness and ability in
a pinch.
Entries closed at 1870 in the after
noon, and there were twenty players
to sign up for the tournament, four of
whom did not finish. The weather was
fine and the links in very fair eondi-
ton, and everybody who took part
thoroughly enjoyed the game, even if
they could not all put the first of their
initials on the cup.
1t is interesting to note that White
made only one six in the eighteen holes
and that was in the second round when
his ball went into a ditch by the side
of the railroad, whence he had to loft
it over two wire fences and across the
track.
The official scores and handieaps in
order were:

purse, have been frequent on the Ash
attic station, and it is said that the
West Virginia once had crew racing
in $4,000 purse event. The Mary
land is said to claim the champion
ship of the Big Four.
The racing cutters used by both
crews are of identical pattern. Each
vessel in the Navy is supplied with a
regulation racing cutter, not a whit
different one from the other, so that
each warship's crew, when it puts its
cutter in the water, knows that the op-
ponent has no advantage, except, pos
sibly, in the men themselves.
All day yesterday and portion OF
last night the West Virginia crew of
eleven men, including the coxswain,
worked over their boat on the upper
deck. They burned off the paint and
then reoiled the bottom, after subject
ing it to a thorough scraping. The
men worked under an awning and by
electric light, and when they finished
their labors they believed they had
the best boat.
If nothing unforeseen happens, the
race viii surely come off at the hour
above mentioned.

want to get the snap shot kid out be
hind the box and he will please every
body because he knows the game and
has a natural instinct for umpiring.
After the game Al Waikaloa, like
the grand little sportsman he is, walk.
ed up to Jim, shook hands with him
and called for three cheers for the best
umpire they had ever seen in Waialua.
This made all the 'Tisers feel good
and they felt whole lot better when
they got through with the luau to
which they were shortly presented.
Waikaloa is a new departure in base
ball captains on this island. He takes
both sides of the case and is the most
unprecedented person that you can
imagine. He stood near first while his
men were batting and, if he thought
a man were out on a close decision,
proclaimed it with no bashfulness. For
this and for his general management
of the best sporting team on the map
he deserves the dousing of all lids to
him and the appreciation of the people
of the Waialua district.
Outside of the terrible drubbing the
'Tisers got they were treated grandly.
The people of the neighborhood had
raised fund for their entertainment
and that same thing was of the very
best. There was band that played
between innings and quintet that
played during the luau and while the
may be wrong in its fore
cast of the game it was certainly right
when it stated that the 'Tisers would
board the train sproclaiming the Waia-
luas the best sportsmen in the world.
The first game was won by the
'Tisers by the score of 4 to 8. 1t was
a close and interesting game and was
between supposedly second nine of
the 'Tisers and local team named the
Haleiwas. Tt was mere curtain-raise
and was not taken very seriously by
either side. The embarrassing joke
had, of course, referred to the main
event and the hearts of the Waialuans
jumped with joy when the balloon went
up in the air.
The following was the official score
of the main event:

Great Crowd Watches the Advertiser Team Go

Oh where is that barrel of whitewash
The 'Tisers were going to break9
Alas it was found, all broke on the
ground,
The 'Tisers had made mistake.
Instead of producing the whitewash
They talked of so merril-ee
They all wore sad faces for those emp
ty bases
And were beaten by ten to three.
And that is the whole story. The
Advertiser team returned from Hale.
iva or very disheartened special
train last night. They won the first
game, which was supposed to be joke
but lost the main event by the over
whelming score of 10 to 8.
Full of confidence the 'Tisers board
ed their special train yesterday morn
ing. They were on their way to Ha.
leiwa to play the Waialuas double
header and, as represented in yesterday
Advertiser IS cartoon. they were there
with chime of bells ringing merrily.
Alas and alaek, what falling off was
therel
Not only did they not hold the Wal
aluas down to nothing but they were
uneeremoniously taken up and dumped
in the river of defeat to the tune of
10 to 3.
Considering that the special train ar
rived in Honolulu not till nearly half
past ten it is impossible to do justice
TO the two games and tell all of the
wonderful incidents of the great double
header. But, whatever else is missed,
the whole world should know of the
exeruciating roar of 'fWhere is that
whitewashl' that went up when the
Waialua team scored their first run in
the main event.
The ground was crowded with fans
who swarmed up to the lines and even
got so near that beneicent policeman
had to push them back so that the Of
fetal scorer could see what was going
on. Along the road was a row of bug
gies and automobiles, for every inhabi-
tant OF the district of Waialua who
was not actually partaking in the golf
games was there to see the baseball.
That great first run was made in the
