The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1908-09-07

There were barely enough at the big
league grounds Saturday to make a
decent riot, had they so desired. Prob
ably the crowds were too busy down
town enjoying the procession of navy
boys coming ashore. The Puns put 1t
all over the Jewels, to /, and the
Rams did up the Saints, to 0. The
second game was the better, the Kams
and Saints exhibiting some splendid
play. 1t took twelve innings to decide
which was the better team. Barney
Joy for the Saints and Lota for the
Kams pitched the games of their lives.
Gunboat Smith tickled the hundreds
who saw the boxing contest in the
Independence Club arena on Saturday
evening, his go with Higgins proving
a good show of the real article. A
draw was the decision, as announcer
H. M. Ayres had stated before the be-
ginning that should both men be on
their feet and strong at the end of the
go there would be no decision. Not
that there was a very large amount of
science in the exhibition, but it was a
show for any mans money and the
contestants mixed it up in crisp, clever
style.
