of management of this particular meet
to discourage mushroom athletic or
CARNATIONS, so in the interest of the
sporting public, that they may know
on what ground I stand, I wish TO
ask the following questions and to have
the answers presented to the public
through the sporting columns of the
papers:
F'irst-How old is the Kamehameha
Track Team2
Second-At what place and at what
hour did they meet and elect officers?
Third-Gfve the names and addresses
of their officers.
Fourth-If the Kamehameha Track
Team should win the cup at the Is
land Championship Meet, to whom
is the cup to be given-Kamehameh
Schools. Kamehameha Alumni Associ-
alton. Kalihi Athletic Club, or Oahu
College?
There is no record of any such or
ganization as the Kamehameha Track
Team, and as have been instructed
not to let any man participate who is
not q bona f1de member of the organ
ization which he represents, in order
to enforce that rule, as referee, have
the right to know what organization
a man is a member of. so as to be in
a position to render decision in case
of protests on the field.
