TWO CHAMPIONSHIPS TO BE
DECIDED IN RING TONIGHT
The WeIterweisht Championship of Fleet Will
Go to ShurIock or Trommer---
Smith to Box TrinkIe

There will be two real championship
bouts at the Independence Club arena
tonight. Instead of having any pre-
liminaries, Jack Scully, having the ma
teriaI in hand, decided to make a
double championship event of it and
do away with curtain-raisers This is
absolutely unique in the history of
local boxing-in fact, the records
show no trace of two legitimate cham
pionship bouts being pulled off at the
same place in one night.
Trinkle of the Maryland is the ac-
knowledged champion lightweight of
the fleet, and frankie Smith carried
the amateur championship of the Coast
with him when he started his profess
sional career. These two clever boys
will box fifteen rounds.
The other go will also be of fifteen
rounds duration. Shurlock, who beat
last night, viii try for the
welterweight championship of the fleet
with Frommer from the Tennessee.
Frommer has not been seen in action
in Honolulu. but he sizes up like a
clever boxer and is museled for hard
hitter. so that there is no doubt that
he will make it warm for Shurlock.
The latter made a very good impress
sion in his appearance last night, and

the way he sent in lefts and rights
one after the other on the soldier s
body made the spectators gasp.
Great interest attaches to the Smith
Trinkle go, for Smith only appear
ance here, save in training, was with
McFadden last night, and the distance
was not long enough for a good idea
of his hitting powers to be obtained.
Smith is scheduled to meet Charlie
Reilly in the near future, and this is
grand chance for the fans to get a
line on the probable outcome of this
go.
Reilly defeated Fox. or. rather. was
given draw on account of a previous
a"reement that this should be the case
If both men were on their feet at the
end of the bout. TrinkIe has also de-
feated Fox by good decision in if
teen rounds. 1t follows, then, that if
Smith can put it all over Trinkle. he
will be in line to best Reilly, who has
nothing but string of victories to his
credit since coming to Honolulu. If
Smith can put Trinkle down for the
count, then it shows that he has a
punch which, if he can only land it.
will do the same for our clever
Charlie.
If, on the other hand, Trinkle can
best Smith, it should show that the
latter is not in Reilly's class. AL
though dope worked out on this prin-

The course was three miles straight
away starting outside the harbor and
finishing opposite the California The
long stroke Of the westerners did not
pay in the chop outside but they stuck
manfully TO their thirty eight time and
hoped for a change in the smooth water.
But they were disappointed for, when
the harbOr was reached, the Washing
tons spurted and came over the line
a good three lengths to the good. Not
much money changed hands over the
event as the Washington boys had not
been paid off This morning early, the
Tennessee and South Dakota will row a
race over the same course. b..

PLANTATIONS
FORM LEAGUE

A new league is in the field in the
shape of the Oahu Plantations Baseball
League, the preliminary meeting being
held last Sunday at Eva plantation.
Delegates from Eva, Waipahu, Waialua,
Aiea and Waianae were present and the
initial business was put through III
workmanlike manner.
The league has been promised $25 by
the o. r. & L. Co. and Senator Hughes
has also donated some cash to secure
trophy. It is proposed to approach the
managers of the plantations whose clubs
are participating and welcome add
ton to the trophy fund is expected. The
series viii start about April, next year

ciple does not by any means always
pan out But, whatever the outcome
of the two bouts, there is no doubt
that thew will be hummers. The win
ners will take much the larger end
of the purses in both cases, and not
one of the four boxers can afford to
lose the decision Each sailor is anx-
ious to uphold the honor of his ship,
gain the championship and win the
wagers of his friends. Smith must
make a good showing against TFinkle
or run the risk of failing to be
drawing card when he meets Reilly.
Take it all round. the affair looks
or paper as though it would be far
and away the best thing that Scully
has done yet. All the matches that
he has arranged have been good ones,
and there has been no disappointment
at any of them. The fans will find
it well worth their while to go down
to Alakea street and see this show

TENNIS RESULTS
OF TODAY'S PLAY

The tennis championship tournament
is progressing rapidly. Yesterday af.
ternoon three matches were played off
and one was stopped by darkness. A.
L. Castle beat A. J. Lowrey, 6-3, 6-3;
w. L. Warren beat c. g. Bockus, Sc,
ga, 81; Rs A. Cooke beat Ray Rietow,
81, GIL. The Steere- Greenfield match
is not yet decided. These players have
mutually agreed to play best three cut
of FIVE and they will finish their match
this afternoon on the Beretania courts.
At present they each have set to
their credit, both of which were hard
ly fought, the first one going to four
teen games. Mr.. Greenfield is the only
player not a member of one of the Ho-
nolulu clubs and his work will be
watched with great interest. Should
he defeat Mr.. Steere he has a splendid
chance to be the one to play Will Roth
for the championship of the Islands
after the present series is over.
The Steere- Greenfield match will be
the only one today. Tomorrow the
semi finals will be played on the Pa
cifc courts. r. A. Cooke will play W.
L. Warren, and A. L. Castle will meet
the winner of the Steere-Greenfeld
match.
The finals win be played on Thurs
day, and on Friday or Saturday the
winner of the present series win play
Will Roth for the final championship.
Entries for the other events will be
left open until the singles champion
ship is settled, and then there will b.
some exciting times when the doubles
and the ladies start their tournaments.
