WA|ALUAS HAND
( IT TO EVA TEAM

/What do you know about those white
flwash steaiers out at Waialual They
! have gone and put it over the Ewas,
and there is great rejoicing down Ha.
leiwa way. The score was to 2, and
the following account is from the pen
of one of the original burglars, who
broke int the baggage wagon and split
the 'Tisers' whitewash tub.
"In the last ball game of the sea
son played on the Waialua diamond
last Sunday, the bunch of SASSY
Handy Kids from EVA plantation
were unceremoniously taken up and
dumped into the river of defeat to the
tune of to by the Waialua planta-
tion star aggregation of ball players,
who claim to be the plantation cham
pions.
1.-The game started after / clock,
with the Waialuas at bat and the Ewas
in the field. In the first inning the
WIaialuas scored four runs against the
Ewas' one. Nothing doing for the
second and third innings for both sides.
In the fourth inning the Ewas scored
their second run, and were held down
for the rest of the game. The Waia-
luas tailed one run in the sixth inning.
In the last half of the seventh Man
ager West of the Ewas, who was walk
ing up and down the first base line, was
heard to tell his boys to score some
runs in this inning, as it was the lucky
appointed when their batters came up
and sank sadly to the plate in the
order of one, two, three. In the ninth
inning the Waialuas scored two runs,
and the Ewas could do nothing. The
game ended with the score to . in
favor of the Waialuans, and the Waia-
lua fans jumped into the air and in
dulged in shouts of victory.
"Pitcheer Geo. Clarke of Eva was in
I his usual form, but the clever Waia-
luans found him in the beginning of
tuo game anu Ddtteu HIS ueilNeIy al
over the field. The Waialuas could
have tailed more runs, but they didn It
want to delay the game, as the visitors
were SO anxious to catch the afternoon
train, and they couldn It wait for the
Haleiwa Limited, on which they came.
"Frank De Ponte, the Waialua slab
ort;ct did Sauna ,noryalouc ritchiho
and he had good support out in the
| field. He was great surprise to the
Ewas when they failed to find his
curves, especially Jack Vannatta and
Geo. Clarke, the Eva battery, who
both famed the air once.
Supervisor Andrew Z. Cox was very
generous by helping the home team in
the way Of genuine Waialua luau for
the entertainment of the visiting team,
to which they did ample justice.
"There was great joy in the hearts
of the Waialua fans over this victory,
as it is something to win from team
which defeated the cup winners from
Honolulu. The Waialua team holds the
record among the plantation teams for
winning the most games, and Ahuna
Waikoloa, captain and manager, de-
serves great credit for his able man
agement of the best sporting team on
this island. The members of the Waia-
lua Athletic Club take this opportunity
of thanking each and every baseball
enthusiast in Waialua for their acts of
kindness and support they have given
the local club
