COAST TEAM
HERE AGAIN
HiIdebrand Wants to Take a
Nine Over to Far
East.

Baseball cruises from the mainland
to Honolulu and the Orient have be-
come popular since Mique Fishers eff
fort of last season, for, according to the
San Francisco Bulletin, not less than
three prominent men in baseballdom
on the coast are planning to take team
over to the Far East. The San Fran
cisco Bulletin of June 30 has the fol-
lowing:
At this time there are three different
parties figuring on taking baseball clubs
to the Orient this winter. Mike Fisher
and Jess Woods must have started some
thing. SO successful was the first tour
of Japan, China, Philippines and Ha-
wall that others want to follow in the
same footsteps Already the Pacific
Mail has received calls from ambitious
baseball promoters looking for rates.
1--WE will give them reasonable, rate
if they want to take clubs over" said
one of the officials of the steamship
company yesterday. I'VE treated
Fisher and Woods pretty decently and
we will do as well by others. As mat
ter of fact, we hope more clubs do go
out to the Orient. They advertise our
boats, our country, and help things gem
erally.o
George Hildebrand, who Travelled with
Fisher and Woods last winter, is asso-
eiated with one of the parties looking
for rates. As he won't play any base
ball this season, Hildebrand has time to
give to such a venture, and as he has
been over the ground he would be a
valuable man to any party promoting
such a trip. OF course, Hildebrand
would have charge Of the players and
look after the playing end If the trip
should go through. lie would attempt
to pick as strong club as he could
find The clubs should sail as early as
possible so as TO reach Japan before
the cold weather sets in. Mike Fisher
sailed from here on election day Nc
vember 81, which was fully two weeks
too late If Fisher should go out again
with club he would start about Octo-
Der /. Then be would encounter warmer
weather III Japan anu SHIhd' as INC
winters of the Philippines and Hawaii
are almost as hot as the Summers, it
matters less what time the clubs strike
there. Fisher and Woods have no
thought of retracing their steps this
year, but they have a trip to Australia
under consideration. Baseball is play
ed quite extensively in the Antipodes,
and tour of that faraway country with
a frst-class baseball club, such as they
would take, might be big paying

BARNEY WANTS
To THRILL Us
demon" OIdfieid Wishes to
Give an Exhibition in
Honolulu.

Barney Oldfeld, the demon among
auto racers, whose wonderful exploits
behind the wheel of the fastest racing
machines in the world, have made him
famous as one of the nerviest men of
the day. wants to come to Honolulu to
give an exhibition next January. His
manager, Walter Hempel, writing from
Detroit, under date of July Is, to Sec
rotary Wood of the Promotion Commit
tee, says:
''Can you suggest any means for Old
field and one other driver to give a
race meet (track) at Honolulu in Jan
uary? Both ears and drivers can beat
SIS seconds mile, on a mile track. We
could also furnish other racing ears
and drivers.
Here's chance for auto scorchers
to see lust what can be done in race
against time. Outside of any pleasant
ries on the subject of seorching, how
ever, Oldfeld's proposition indicates
that HONOLULU roads and the good au-
tomobiling have come to the notice of
