NEW BUILDING
DIRECTORS OF Y. M. C. A. MEET
viii Appoint Committee of Five
to Have Entire Charge
of Operations.
6From Wednesdays Advertlser.)


The directors of the Y. NJ. C. A. are
going ahead as rapidly as possible with
the work preliminary to beginning the
erection of the new building for which
funds were subscribed in the recent
campaign. At meeting of the direc-
tors held last night it was decided to
have appointed committee of five who
are to have entire charge of the build
ing operations. T. Give Davies is the
directors choice for chairman of this
committee, and it is expected that he
will consent to serve, although he had
not been seen in regard to the matter
last night. The names of the four other
members will be announced later.
The architect of the proposed new
building will be selected by the build
ing committee, 1t is requisite that
he be man familiar with local re-
quirements and with. the erection of
buildings of the class which it is pro-
posed shall be built.
The directors instructed the site com
mittee to use every possible effort to
secure the lot at present occupied by
the library, this to be added to the
other lots Eva of the library. 1t is
stated that it is very probable that the
efforts of the committee will be success
full.
The board also voted to invite John
r. Mott, chairman of the international
committee of the Y. NJ. c. A., to come
to Honolulu to assist in the laying of
the cornerstone. Mr. Mott is a national
figure, and has been in Honolulu several
times before.
The membership of the Y. M. c. A.
was last night increased by 175, that
number of new members being voted
in. This brings the total mem bership
up beyond the 600 mark.
Secretary Super states that there are
now 169 different persons enrolled in
the night classes. Some of them are in
more than one class, the total enroll
ment of all classes being 202.

PATENTS READY FOR
KALAHE0 H0MESTEADS
First Matter to Engage fuckers
Attention on Returning
More New Lands.

Joshua Tucker, secretary to the land
commissioner, was at his desk yester.
day morning at nine O'Clock after ar
irving on the Korea from Frisco town
and the Masonic conclave. The base
ment of the Capitol Immediately began
to cheer up and the damp spots on the
wall retired in disgrace. Tucker at
once sailed into business and roses APP
peared in the desks of his office staff
from the excitement and exercise.
The first matters that come before his
attention upon resuming his duties are
the homesteads at Kalaheo. The home.
steads in this district have been pro.
nounced the most successful in the Ter.
ritory and patents are now being made
out and will soon be signed by Uncle
Sam, giving the homesteaders the
ground.
The land was taken up by Portuguese
and the plots seldom exceed six or
seven acres, garden truck and small
farming making them profitable TO their
tillors, Marston Campbell's desk is
piled high with the patents and there
are several more TO be examined
Still another announcement comes Of
more lands to be opened to homestead'
ing AT Keaau, Walanae. This consists
of about twelve sections and will bC

WlCE[ERSHAM PROVING
AND IMPROVING HIMSELF

Wickersham rs one of the strong attor.
ney.generals among the long line Of
distinguished lawyers who have held
that office but he is on the high road.
The President has shown appreciation
of his encouragement Is talents by
selecting him for such important work
as drawing administration bills to
cover declared policies. Others have
been asked to help him, but Mr.. Wicker.
sham has been assigned to the chief
tasks and given chief authority.
He first demonstrated his knowledge
and aptitude for such efforts when tho
corporation tax was drawn as an
amendment TO the Aldrich. Payne tariff
law. There were many consultations
over the amendment, in which such
great lawyers as the President, Secre.
tary of State Knox, Secretary of War
Dickinson, and Secretary of Commerce
and Labor Nagel participated. That
measure was drawn and redrawn and
in the final stages the work was sub
mitted to the Encouragement.
Planning an Attack.
Very comprehensive plans for attack.
ing the constitutionality of that cor.
poration franchise tax are being
formed. The attorney-general hears
of these plans with composure. He
has asserted and reasserted his conf.
dence that the corporation tax can not
be successfully assailed. If that work
stands and he has like success with the
new laws he is framing, his reputa-
ton as Trainer of federal statutes will
stand out large.
In the mean time there may be some
grumbling in congress. There is
school of legislators, who resent the
framing of legislation outside of the
senate or the house, especially the
framing Of bills by the executive de.
partment for introduction and passage
by the legislative department. The
late Senator Hoar of Massachusetts,
was vigorous champion of that school.
But it is not the attorney general IS
fault that the practise has grown up
and flourished in recent years, especially
since federal administrations began to
have legislative programs and presi-
dents have urged legislation by other
methods than formal recommendations
in their annual messages. The practise
has become necessary, in way, be-
cause the suggestions have been largely
in new fields where much investigation
and consultation have become impera-
tive. The committees of congress have
not been disposed to initiate such in
designations and presidents accordingly
have initiated them.
Then on such highly specialized sub
iects as corporation control, the best
method of conveying an impression as
to just what is wanted, as Attorney
General Wickersham said the other
day, is to nut the idea into the form
of carefully drawn and well consid-
cred bill for introduction into the sen.
ate or the house or both.

THEAlL THINKS
MORE MONEY
MUST Be HAD

T. S. Theall, clerk of the house of
representatives naval committee, who
accompanied the congressional party On
its tour of the Hawaiian Islands, and
visited Pearl Harbor when the site of
the naval station was inspected by the
lawmakers, has made n statement in
Washington, and makes some very
favorable comments on the PROPOSE
tion. Mr.. Theall having formerly been
a naval officer and marine corps officer,
occupies his present position mainly
because of his technical knowledge of
naval matters, and is a sort of Off
cial adviser to the house members Of
the naval committee. He says:
"The visiting congressman had the
advantage of the presence of the chief
of the bureau of yards and doc'ss and
his representative at Pearl Harbor in
the inspection of the naval station
there, to which special attention was
paid in view of the prospect that it
may be necessary to increase the pres
ent authorization of $7,000,000, of
which sum about $4,000,000 has been
appropriated. The congressman went
carefully over the plans of the naval
station and thoroughly discussed the
location of the dock and the proposed
shops. They were specially impressed
with the strategical value of the sta
ton, which will be fully accessible to
the largest ships upon the completion
of the projected dredging. The rise
and fall of the tide is about two feet
and there is plenty of water inside.
The dredging already authorized is
progressing so rapidly that it is prob
able the appropriation will be eX-
hausted in February or March next.
The contractor is far ahead of the
schedule in this respect"
The members of congress gave some
! attention, necessarily, to the defenses
of the naval station. They were much
pleased with the progress which has
been made by the coast artillery au'
thorities in establishing Notifications
Mt the entrance of Pearl Harbor and
Mt Honolulu. Some of them believe
that additional Notifications will be
necessary at Barber's Point in order
TO repel an enemy who may approach
from the west, from which position it
might he possible to attack the naval
station over the lowlands.
FThe members of the congressional
party" according to Mr. Theali, "were
much interested in the industry Of the
/ japanese and the Chinese, upon whom

CHAMPION SWIMMERS
COMING TO NAPLES
Great Interest Is Being Taken by
Swimmers All Along the Coast
and New Material Looks
Promising

Les Henry, secretary of the Southern
California Swimming association, MADE
the announcement last night that the
sixth annual tournament would be held
at Naples July 4. This will be the
second Pacific coast championship
tourney to be held in Southern Califor-
mia. Henry has made arrangements
to have c. M. Daniels champion snort
distance swimmer of the world, com
pete against the best there is on the
coast
Arrangements will also be made to
try and persuade other athletes from
the east to stop over in Los Angeles
while en- route to compete in the ma
tional championships at Seattle, which
will be held there in August. There
is already much enthusiasm manifest
ed by northern swimmers, especially
around San Francisco and other north
ern points, regarding the coming
events. Tho northern athletes have
been treated royalty by the southern
enthusiasts and consequently large
number are applying for entry blanks
at this early date Members OF the
Olympic club Of San Francisco have
shown a willingness to send team of
their best swimmers to take part in
the coming tournament.
With preparations being made at this
early date this tournament will I'M
doubtedly be the grandest success. even
held in Southern California. Prepare
tory tournaments will be held in the
near future to prepare the local SWIM
mers and place them in shape. Among
the prominent swimmers that will par
ticipate will be Walter Abegg, the
Swiss champion; Ben Wellington, the
Los Angeles favorite; Frank Holbor-
ow. the speedy short distance man, and
Howard Taylor the Los Angeles high
school athlete who made remarkable
showing at the races held at Naples
last year.
The coming water polo league will
develop new and speedy material that
will undoubtedly show the way to some
of the old-time stars that have been
carrying away the majority Of the
trophies in the past.

MONROVIA WILL MEET
POLY HIGH SECONDS
Monrovla Hopes to Prove That Recent
Successes VIII Bring Her VIC
tory, Although Polys Are
Confident

In view of the successes recently met
with by Monrovia in several more or
less recent track meets the athletes OF
the foothill city will meet Polytech-
mic high second team next Saturday at
the Monrovia grounds. While 1t is
hardly expected that Monrovia will
carry off the lions share of honors,
nevertheless a remarkably good show
ing is looked forward to by all who
noted her previous excellent efforts.
The Monrovia grounds have recently
been improved and a large crowd will
be present.
While Monrovia has but a dozen ath-
letes in the field, several of these are
of the first grade. Harvey is doped to
win the high jump. broad jump and
shot put, while Shepard will be relied
upon for the distance event. Only in
the spirits is Monrovia at all weak. For
Monrovia this amounts to a workout
for the suburban meet to be held the
latter part of the month at Occidental,
in which event she hopes to win first
honors.
Polytechnic will send out the flower
of her many athletes and looks forward
to more or less easy victory. Among
the men who will wear her colors are
Baird and Jones, crack sprinters; Per-
cival the distance man, and Murphy,
who will in all probability carry off
first honors in the hammer throw. A
large crowd will accompany the Poly
squad to the foothill city and Monro-
via at least assures them an exciting
meet.
Poly's Lineup
Poly's lineup will be as follows:
Bentgen-50-yard dash, SS0-yard run,
relay.
Baird-1O0 and 220 yard dashes, relay.
Murray-Hammer throw, shot put, re-
lay.
McPhail-5O and 100 yard dashes.
Haywood--High and broad jumps.
Egly-440-yard dash, mile run.
Heaney--440-yard dash, mile run.
Jones-5O, 100 and 220 yard dashes,
relay.
Percivile-Ss0-yard and mile runs.
Fox-440-yard dash, 8S0-yard run.
Monrovia's Lineup
Monrovia will have the following
men in the field:
K. Harvey-10O-yard dash, high jump,
broad jump, pole vault, shot put, re-
lay.
II. Shepard-SSO-yard and mile runs.
P. Whitaker-10O and 200 yard dashes,
pole vault, relay.
w. Crandall-220 and 440 yard dashes,
relay.
S. Whitcomb-shot put, hammer
throw.
f. Boyd-Pole vault
f. Blackington-Mil run.
]. Campbell-440-ward dash, relay.
c. Glenny-Relay, 220-yard dash.
S. Black-High jump, broad jump.

CRACK FEATHERS
COME TO TERMS
W0LGAST AND BAKER SIGNED
BY M'CAREY
MAKES BEST CARD ARRANGED
HERE IN LONG TIME
Furnish Main Event Of Big Show at
Maud Junction Tuesday Night.
Topnotchers Confident of
Adding to Laurels

One Of the best cards that have been
arranged locally in long time was
put through yesterday by the Pacific
Athletic club, when Ad Wolgast, UNI
doubtedly one of the greatest feather
weights of the day, and Harry Baker.
formerly considered next to Abe Attell
in that division, were matched for
ten-round bout at the Maud fight club
next Tuesday night. According TO the
articles of agreement the boys Will
weigh in at 125 pounds at o'clock in
the afternoon, and there will be little
advantage for either in this regard.
Despite the ugly stories circulated
after his fight with Walter Little last
week, Wolgast is one of the greatest
drawing cards today that any fight club
could engage, and the Pacific Athletic
club has shown excellent judgment in
arranging this card. Attell stopped
Baker in eight rounds, and Harry
skidooed to Philadelphia, where he
gained experience and developed into q
real top-notch fighter. Wolgast fought
Attell most creditably in recent ten
round bout, and in all his local en-
gagements has shown that class which
places him next to the champion II
not on par with him.
McCarey certainly has arranged
card that should fll his fight barn next
Tuesday night, and the fact that 1t Is
the best betting card that has been
arranged in Los Angeles In a long time
indicates the degree Of interest which
the supporting fans will take in this
bout.

AMATEUR COMMISSION
REFUSES REGISTRATION
Chairman c. 3. Raitt Probably VIII
Have to Serve Out His Term, His
Associates Being Well
Pleased with Him

Amateur baseball was discussed at
length at the meeting OF the southern
California commission of the A. A. y.
last night at the Los Angeles \. Nj. y.
A. The first subject to come before the
commission was the selection OF a new
chairman. This was made necessary
by the resignation of Chairman z. Is.
Raitt at a meeting held two weeks ago,
when he stated that 1t would be I'M
possible to act in that capacity on ac-
count of his present duties in connec-
ton with the Los Angeles Fairgrounds.
His resignation was not accepted ana
| 1t practically was decided that he would
| have to serve for some time to come,
and possibly for the full year. The
designations of w. III. Leonard and
Haynes Reed, as delegates-at-large.
were accepted, and the chairman was
instructed to communicate with Presi-
dent Sidney Peixotto for power to APP
point representatives in their places
These appointments will be made in all
probability at the next regular meet
ing. to be held the first Wednesday In
April.
academy reported that he had received
an anonymous letter, accusing two of
the Long Beach high school baseball
players of having played In Sunday
games with professional clubs at the
beach town. Nothing was done in re-
cara 10 lnc cnuTBtS, do IL was AlOI Ncii-
sidered of sufficient Importance to JUS
tify official action.
The case of Herbert Witt Of the Or
ange Union high school was brought,
before the commission by Witt in per-
son, and after lengthy discussion OF
his amateur standing 1t was voted to
reinstate him upon the promise that he
would take part in no more Sunday
games with professional baseball play
ers. DR.. Barker of Orange was APP
pointed a committee of one to investi-
gate the baseball situation at Orange
and report at the next regular meeting
The application of Cam Lafferty, the
former Polytechnic high school student,
for reinstatement, was laid on the
table for one month, and Rev. Father
Martin was instructed to have Lafferty
appear in person at the next regular
meeting, April 6, and show why he
should not remain suspended from the
ranks of the amateurs.
Les Henry as usual, made strong
argument in behalf of the amateupp
and in part said: II see no reason why
consideration of amateur baseball
should be deferred. There are several
fast amateurs in Southern California,
and some provision should be made to
protect the amateur and weed out the
professional. This is serious matter
and should be taken up at once to
properly adjust the situation" No
definite action was taken. however.
