THE NAVAL OFFICERS
SLIP IT TO FATTIES

The Navy men were too much for
the ball tossers of the University Club
in the game played on the Punahou
grounds yesterday afternoon, putting
it over the local men to the tune of
6 to 3. The score would have been
fatter on both sides had not the play
ers been as fat as they were.
1t was a great game, though. Digni-
fed citizens of Honolulu who have not
been known to move faster than a slow
walk for years romped around the
bases, chased wildly after elusive balls
that persisted in slipping through their
fingers or rolling between their legs.
The game was played on a grass field,
to the great and unholy joy of the root
ing brigade, who hooted gleefully every
time Babbitt lost his footing on the
slippery sod and rolled over, or when
Hemenway, making desperate effort
to pull down fly from eleven feet
over his head. sat down on the back
of his neck. The ine-ups were as fol

TWO MORE BIG GAMES

There win be two big games of ball
at the league grounds this afternoon.
The Pennsylvania will play a picked
team from Aala Park instead Of the
KAN West Virginia game as previously
announced. The F. F. vs.. will supply
most of the picked team for the sec
ond game so they respectfully gave
way to the Pennsy boys.

The sailors got the worst of it in
| both games at the league grounds yes
terday afternoon. The Sparklers slip
ped hard one over on the Cherry
Tree kids and Sergeant Barry's bunch
of Kokua youths handed it to the West
Virginia by close margin of 4 to 3.
The first game was late in starting
and the local players were the cause of
! it. Eddie's gang of swatters had an
easy time of it with the Washington
team They went to bat first and made
two in the first inning. The Washing
tonians replied with one in the second
half.
The Jewels made two more in the
. seventh and in the eighth, they made
a run and left the bases full. Then
Bill Hampton produced a magnificent
swat that amounted to home run and
four men came in. They also scored
another run in the ninth. In the
seventh inning the sailors scored off a
poor throw by Davis.
The second game was more close and
exciting. The F. F. VS.. scored one in
the second and two in the eighth. The
Kokua kids made one in the first, one
in the third and two in the fourth.
Schaeffer pitched for the West Vir-
ginia but was not in extra good form
and was father badly swatted at
times. The feature of the game was
that the losers made no errors while
the winners made two. The winning
runs were all earned and came from
good, hard swatting.

FIVE SCHEDULED
BOUTS DW|NDLE
Fans at Aloha Park Treated to
Half What Management
Promised.

The FIVE boxing events promised to
the public by Fred Smith at Aloha
Park for last night, reduced them
selves to three. Two of them were
scheduled bouts, the other one was a
film.
The bouts were good. Each one was
a hummer. Sam Hop and Sareoni put
up a rattling go. Both swung wildly
and very effectively and it was a case
of fadeawav Poor Old Sam. the
gamest Chinese boxer that ever donned
a glove, faded away first. From start
. to finish it was a case of nip and tuck
for both men. Both were more than
nearly out az several stages of the
game but Sam got the curtains first.
The second go was between Kid
Frapklin and Kid Terry of the Iro-
quois. Franklin was. utterly out of
condition but stayed gamely through
Hhe bout He showed himself to be
the cleverer by far but, had the bout
lasted few more rounds, he would
certainly have succumbed to Terry IS
onslaught. This bout was for six
rounds and Referee Jack Weedy gave
a very proper draw decision.
The final bout was between Mac
Donald of the Tennessee and Charlie
Reilly. The little Irishman from the
cruiser was there with the goods and
made banging battle all the way
through. But Charlie was too clever
for him and took a well earned deci-
sion from Referee Les Petrie who man
aged the lads well under the clean
break rules.
just why the various bouts, given
to the newspapers as scheduled for last
night and properly written up in the
sporting columns, did not come off, it
is hard to say. Mr. Ayres was instru-
mental in arranging most of the bouts,
which he did to everybody's satisfac-
ton. He was also to have refereed the
bouts and TO have received a considera-
ton for the same. The answer is yet
to come
