FIGHTERS QUICK
IN TAKING NAMES

"A question that has bothered a
great many people is why fighters
change their names or add Kid or
Young" to their Names" says AL.
Fellows, the Chicago lightweight who
is now in Honolulu. 81 myself be-
ing a fighter and having a front han
die of Claude thought that was no
name for a fighting man, and as my
second name was Albirni l took the
front part of it and called myself AL
l once asked Edith Aitkens, very
witty little actress, who was quick
on answering questions, why fighters
as a general rule took Kid before
their names, and she said why, be-
cause kids are so hard to put to sleep
But assumed names have also been
very popular with fighters. Of course
such fighters as John l.. Sullivan
Paddy Ryan and Jake Kilrain in the
old times were helped out a great
deal by the fact that they were OF
Irish origin. But nowadays fighter
does not necessarily assume a ring
name of Irish extraction
Norman Selby lived in town
where there was a butcher by the
name of Mccoy who was considered
great fighter, so Norman called him
self Kid Mccoy Tommy Ryan's right
name is Joseph Youngs, and he is
Hebrew. William RothwelI took as
his ideal fighter Jim Corbett, so he
called himself Young Corbett. Hugo
Kelly is an Italian with an unpro-
nounceable name so Paddy Carroll of
Chicago called him Hugo Kelly after
some friend of his in the audience
the first time he fought, as Carroll
was doing the announcing. Paddy Car
roll also named Benny Yanger the
Upton Slasher, as he said that the

RATIONAL GOLF
BY JASON RODGERS

The remarkably fine showing made
by Walter j. Travis in the recent open
championship at Englewood proves
that the former champion is still in
a class by himself among amateurs
when it comes to the most crucial test
that can be applied to a golfer-72
holes of medal play. In 1902 at Gar
den City he tied for second and third
palces with Steward Gardner and this
year again got in the money in a
tie for seventh place, a distinction
equalled by no other American anna
teur.
Mr. Travis, usually unaffected by
conditions, can generally be counted
upon to win top place Starting
out with a 70 on Thursday morning
the excessive heat undoubtedly ac-
counted for his rs in the afternoon
Continuing under the same condi-
tions, he did n on Friday morning,
and finished up with 70 Tor a total
of 300 strokes, only one stroke be-
hind his famous playing partner, VIII
lie Anderson
From the match play standpoint, eli
minating the probabilities of stymies.
Travis and Anderson would have had
a great match of it. At the end of
the Is holes Travis would have led
by four holes, or had the match by 3

day. or for &c holes, the match would
have been all square.
The third round of is holes would
have seen Travis up with TO play,

THE NEW UMPIRE
OF OAHU LEAGUE

A good many baseball and other
people want to know something about
J. II. McHenry, the new umpire of
the Oahu Baseball League. The gen
tleman is a young man, although some
older than he used to be; and is nei-
Their fat nor lean, although some Of
both. He is bigger than some UNI
pires and smaller than others In
demeanor he is urbane, except when
angered; then he is said to chew
things.
Mr. McHenry was umpire for both
the Pacific Coast and California State
Leagues at different times. Then he
went to the Far East, and officiated
as umpire in Manila and Shanghai
Although only one month in Homo
lulu, he has passed through here
about thirty times, to and from Ma
Mia or the Orient.
In business affairs, Mr. McHenry is
what is popular known as "mixolo-
gist" He has been appointed manager
of the Pacific saloon in place of Otto
Winller, who died the other day.

BALL
At ATHLETIC PARK

There will be some blk excitement
at the new Athletic park tomorrow
afternoon All four teams in the Oahu
league are tied with 500 per cent each
and the two winners tomorrow will
give themselves long lead in the
standing column.
The Kalihis will play the c. A. e..
in the first game and the ]. A. c. will
meet the Marines in the second pc
riod Not one of the teams can af-
ford to lose a game and the conse-
quence will be that both games will
be so holly contested that the fans
should have one of those rare treats
that come only once or twice in a
series.
Perhaps the feature Of the day will
be the appearance Of Bill Espinda for
the JapS. Bill has been over on Maui
for some time and has been persuaded
to come back to Oahu greatly against
the wishes Of all the people on Maui,
where he has won championships for
his team by his heady and consistent
twirling.
Ross will most probably catch for
Espinda and this battery should prove
an excellent one for the Jap3 who are
great in the field but need a good bat
terry to work to.
Gorge Clark will pitch for the Ka-
lihis as usual and Shepard, that
blonde wonder from Leilehua, will be
| behind the plate. The Dragonlets
have not yet decided on their battery
but, If a suggestion may be offered
they would be doing we'll to put AL
Pau in the pitchers box as he anC
Chi Bui work well together.
The Marine battery is not yet Civ
en- out but Gibson and Williams will
probably do the honors. This team
has several alternates that can be pu
in the box in case Gibson should bt
Off color, a condition he very seldom
shows, and they will have no troubl,
about putting an effective batter,
against Ross and Espinda.
The fans will find better accommo
dation than ever at the Athletic parl
tomorrow The reserved seat section
has been enlarged and the same will
be done to the bleachers as soon a!
possible. During rhe last TWO game,
the crowd was so great that there wa,
considerable overflow past tn,
bleachers. All these fans had t,
stand but tomorrow there will be row.
of seats so that everybody who pay!
for admission will be able to ST
down.

YACHT RACE FOR
GOVERNOR CUP

The annual yacht race for the Gov
ernor's cup will start at o'clock this
afternoon. 1t will be around the ISL
and of Oahu and the cruise, to count,
must be finished inside of thirty hours
This particular Saturday night is Sc
lected for the race on account of the
fact that the moon is favorable.
The yachts to sail are: Kameha-
meha, scratch; Charlotte c., hr and
2S min; Gladys, hr 81 min The
Hawaii IL, flagship of the fleet, will
sail With the others but will not race
The first gun for the start will be
fired at a: SO and the boats will leave
from the spar buoy promptly at 5
o'clock.
AS the weather is fine and the boats
in good condition, it is figured that
the finish of the race will be some
where around 5 o'clock tomorrow af-
ternoon. Vice Commodore Jaeger's
launch will act as starting boat and
lee stake
The race of the small yachts in the
harbor will take place tomorrow af-
ternoon, starting at 1870. Boats TO go

md Anderson win the sixteenth and
seventeenth to bring the match again
all square. On the last leg Anderson,
with his final 20, was thre holes up,
and would have won the 72-holes
match by the narrow margin of 2 up
and l to play.
Here is a table showing the scores
made by Travis and Anderson at En-
glewood, in comparison with par, to-
gether with the best ball score of the
pair on each hole, showing a total
of 81:
similar comparison of the card
made by George Sargent, the winner,
with that of Willie Anderson shows
that the former would have been 3
holes up at the end Of 70 holes of play.
On the out holes during the -four
rounds Anderson would have been
up, but on the in holes, where Sar-
gent averaged BAN, he would have
been 10 holes up.
On the last Sc holes of play 1.-THE
scores for the first half not being at
hand) Alec Smith and Isaac Mackie
would have been / up on Alec Smith,
and the same on Isaac Mackie.
Aside from the showing made by
Mr.. Travis, that of F. r. Upton. an
amateur from Baltusrol, 304 was high
ly creditable, his first round being "
and his last rs, with rs and 70 in
between. Other amateurs to finish
under 800 were Findlay S. Douglas,
81, and Gilman Tiffany 31S. jerome
d. Travers and Frederick Iierreshoff
did not play on the second day.
