BOTH GAMES
LOOK GOOD
Saints and Hams Are Selected
to Do the Trimming
Tod@y.

The Saints in their last effort to trim
the Diamond Heads in the first series
will appear this afternoon with the
strongest lineup of players ever Sc
leeted from their pasture.
Figuring on the pace and result of
the last two games which the Jewels
have played, Bushnell can see but one
outcome, and with speedy ball to keep
in touch with the Jewels usual open
ing stride, there should be a blue uni
form on top when the dust clears up.
The Diamonds are hard at work, too,
not caring to take any chances on the
result of the second game, as, win or
lose. ii is matter Of keen interest to all
concerned in the result of the first Sc
ries. One game on the wrong side of
the beck may change the entire run
ming.
Reuters form for the last three
games puts him forward as favorite in
the second game, which should prove
the better game of the two. With Jack
Vannatta well placed on third again and
playing the game he played last Satur-
day, he should prove a tower of
strength to Reuter- IS aggregation.
These boys have struck winning
stride, and Hampton's Colts win have
to go some to give them setback.
Handling hunts is one of the Rams
weakest points ana should prove dan
gerous at all times unless Reuter- can
place 'em sooner. The Colts have all
been educated up to bunt, and each in
turn knows what the getaway"
means, so there may be something do
ing in this line also.
Doyle will be Or hand with his anvil
chorus, ready to yell their heads off to
cheer Dick and his team to victory.

left to the jaw for the count of
eight. He then put him down in rapid
succession for seven and nine seconds,
respectively. Kupa made gallant eff
fort to continue the unequal contest,
but the referee stopped the bout right
there.
THE MAIN EVENT.
Both men were loudly cheered as
they entered the ring for the main
event. Young Nelson weighed seven or
eight pounds more than Rafferty, of
the Alabama, who was down to close
on 12o pounds. Frank Rafferty,, by
the way, is the featherweight cham
pion of the Atlantic fleet.
After a lengthy discussion as to
breaking the men agreed to break
clean at the word of the referee.
Round one saw Nelson quickly on the
aggressive but Rafferty, whipped his
left over to the face; then both scored
to the body. Nelson drove his right to
the body and Rafferty's straight left
just failed to reach the mark.
Nelson put his left to the face early
in the second. Rafferty, did some nice
blocking in this round. The sailor got
busy with a Dick Sullivan peck and
then put the right lightly to the body,
following up with a brace of left
hooks.
In the third Rafferty, pegged away
with his straight left and Nelson plac-
ed some stiff rights to the heart and
wind Rafferty, rocked Nelson with a
left jab.
The fourth saw Rafferty, active with
right and left. Nelson looked a bit
puffed. He drove his right strongly to
the body and then roughed it to the
ropes. Rafferty, hooked the left to the
jaw and Nelson scored with a right
body punch. Rafferty, marked Nelson's
left in this round.
Rafferty, pecked away in the next
and tilted Nelson's head on one occa-
sion Nelson swung effectively to the
body and Rafferty, countered with a
stiff right to the heart. Nelson looked
none too good at the conclusion of the
round.
The sixth saw Nelson covering up
better and getting away with left jabs
which had bothered him before. Raj
ferty reached the wind and jaw in
rapid succession but misjudged hard
left drive to the kidneys.
In the next Rafferty, got to the point
with his left and then shot his right
to the heart. Nelson drove to the body
but the blow lacked steam. Nelson
essayed the jaw with stiff right but
Rafferty, covered nicely.
The eighth saw Nelson large and
lively. He opened matters with left
to the neck and then rushed his man
to the ropes. He continued to play
for the wind but was dropped neatly
with a right hook to the point. He
was on his feet instantaneously and
planted his right in the sailors face.

was blocked but he soon after con-

Mike Fisher received a short epistle
from Silent Bill Burns yesterday, who
has both eyes on that Japan-China-
Manila trip this winter. The Washing
ton pitcher was one of the first play
ers to apply to Mike for a position on
his team. Bill had such bully time
at Honolulu that he is strong for the
Orient. What he wrote Fisher about is
that Jim Delehanty, who plays second
for Washington, wants to be counted
in on the trip. Burns recommended
i'm highly for the position, and Fisher
will give the application due consider

UNCLE SANS BLUEJACKETS
SHOW WELL IN THE RING
Rafferty, and Young Nelson Box Ten Rounds to
Draw---OBrien Bests Kupa---C abraI
Wins From Ernie Heine.

A very good house greeted the in
auguration of boxing in Independence
Hall last night. The crowd was one of
the most representative which has at
tended a sporting event in Honolulu
for a very long time.
The hall where Martin Denny and
Billy Armstrong battled nearly ten
years ago has been thoroughly fixed up
for boxing entertainments, and the ae-
commodations leave nothing to be de-
sired. The ring is foot too high,
but this will be rectifed as soon as
possible.
The sport last night was good enough
to satisfy the most fastidious. Two
of the bouts went the limit, and the
other ended in a practical Knockout.
Mike Patton refereed all the goes,
and H. NJ. Ayres acted as announcer
and master of ceremonies.
Joe Cabral and Ernie Heine furnish
ed the curtain-raiser, four-round af-
fair. Heine had several pounds the
better of the weights, Cabral tipping
the beam at 119 pounds.
The boys boxed, hitting with one
arm free and protecting themselves in
the breakaway.
Heine started matters with a rush
and dropped his man after they had
been in the ring a minute. He took
the count for nine seconds. A right
swing to the jaw did the damage.
Cabral came up gamely and was
cheered as he went at his man. There
was no effective blow struck during the
remainder of the round.
Cabral pursued rushing tactics in the
second, scoring with a couple of left
swings to the jaw. Heine was wild and
missed several vicious swings. Cabral
put the right lightly to the jaw and
Heine got home with a right hook to
the point.
Heine was very careful in the see
ond. Cabral got his left to the face
and body a time or two and the round
ended with Heine trying to land an
uppereut.
At the commencement of the fourth
Heine swung his right to the face and
connected. but didn t feaze Cabral, who
shortly after scored with a couple OF
lefts. Heine landed his left on the
neck and Cabral put his left to the jaw
and repeated almost Immediately.
Heine retaIiated in kind and the round
ended with both boys going at it.
The verdict went to Cabral.
The second number on the program
was scheduled as a surround 90 be-
tween Kupa of Honolulu and O'Brien
of the battleship Maine. The men
weighed lao pounds.
The lads stacked Gp pretty evenly as
far as appearances went. They boxed

In the first round Kupa was quickly
driven to the ropes with rights to the

land lightly occasionally. O'Brien
showed himself clever at ducking. The
round was his.
In the second O'Brien got home with
a left to the jaw and Kupa staggered

just in time to beat the watch, and

blows. O'Brien downed' his man with

The Jewels outclassed their oppo-

The crowd was a very small one, only

GOOD TIMES
DRAW PLAYERS

The following extracts are taken
from the San Francisco Bulletin:
Mike Fisher is receiving no end of
applications from players who are anx-
ious to be his guests this fall when he
leaves for the Orient. Hardly a day
passes but he is braced by some player
DESTROYS of making the trip. The play
ers who went to Honolulu reported
send-off for the coming event. Fisher
is going slowly in organizing his club.
His intention is to gather together a
congenial crowd of fast, snappy play
ers, who will win applause wherever
they appear. With this purpose in view
he has signed two men already, and
Claude Berry, two Seals, who are very
liable to be seen in fast company next
year. They are clean-cut players, who
are a credit to the game. Zeider was
with Fisher on the Honolulu expedi-
ton, and he was one of the big hits of
the team. Every time Zeider came to
the bat he got the big hand. Honolulu
fans never saw short covered like it
before. Zeider is in for a big recep-
ton when he appears on the Hawaiian
islands next winter. And Berry will
make just as big a ten-strike there as
Pat Donahue, who was prime favor
fte for he is the sort of player who
makes admirers rapidly. He is a DASH
ing artist, who is always in the game
and giving the talent the best he has.
