Lack Of Interest Kills
Game For This
Year

Seeker football has not made an
extraordinary hit here this year
among either players or spectators,
and, on account of this, 1t is prob
able that the season will come to a
sudden close after the games next
Saturday at Makiki. a meeting OF
the Honolulu Association Football
League was held in the rooms of the
Scottish Thistle Club yesterday. and,
although no final definite action was
taken, II is practically understood
that Saturday. game between the
Males and the Y. NJ. c. A. will ter
inmate the season.
There are many things that have
gone far to work against the best
interests Of the game this year. One
thing, probably, that counted a good
deal towards keeping the players
from turning out to regular practice
was the fact of the Coast baseball
teams being here. Again, many of
the socker players are also track ath-
letes, and at this time of the year
they want to train for their various
events.
The Males are, of course, in the
lead. They need only one point in
order to have the championship all to
themselves. So If they win or draw
in Saturdays game there will be no
dispute. Many new players have
been brought out this year, and on
that account the season cannot be
ClGssed as "A failure, There will be
several aggregatlcns of veterans to
start things next year. while the pig"
skin kIckors this season were made

had never played in such fast COM
