REPORT FROM
THE SHAMELESS

Since there are no friends of the
Bulletin baseball players seeking to
have the narrowing details suppress
ed, it may be stated that the Adver-
tiser team yesterday made something
over twenty runs to the eight of the
Calves at the league ball park in the
afternoon.
There may have been more runs for
exact track when the amount reached
the eighteen or twenty mark.
In the first place, the Bulletins miss
ed their Pearline, Albright, for the
little old Sapolio did not get into the
wash until 2 o'clock, when he blew
onto the field with the remark that
he had a good excuse for being late.
The good excuse may have been in
the grandstand or at Sunday school,
but nobody knew, since he kept mum.
In the first inning the Users made
six runs like daylight fireworks. If
Albright had been there, there might
have beea a different tale in the first
inning. Brewster was another man
missed from the field, not that tie
Stars were playing, but the father of
Sunday newspaper ball should have
been on hand to inspire the players.
There was not so immense a crowd
as on the preceding Sunday. When
the first game started there were but
seventeen paid admissions, and when
a lady with a five-dollar gold piece
wanted to buy five tickets she and
her friends had to be admitted free
because there was not enough money
on the field to make change.
In the second game, a well-played
affair, the Mercantile Printers defeat
ed the Paradise boys by eight to two.
1t was a case of Paradise Lost, in
spite of the angels in the grandstand
who rooted royalty for their team-one
white-robed archangel and several
other daintily-attired Birds of Para
disc. They made a noise like the
other place, however, when their team
lost

HILO'S BIG FOURTH OF
JULY BALL GAME

HILO, May 21-A feature which IS
to be presented at the coming Fourth
of July celebration In Hilo, If arrange
ments can be made, will be baseball
game between the stalwarts from
waimea and a picked HiIo team. Up
Waimea way they have an idea they
can play ball, an opinion which is
shared by the many admirers Of the
PLAYERS. and it has therefore been de-
cided by the management of the COM
ing celebration to offer SIS trophy
to be played for here in Hilo on July
the Fourth. That the Waimea boys
are sports is not to be denied, and
their acceptance of the challenge is
therefore anticipated. It win be
