The Pacific commercial advertiser. [volume] (Honolulu, Hawaiian Islands) 1885-1921, 1909-08-16

ONetCDne the lcdu l1dl MAUI NdS gain
ing in court No. 2. Lindsay for Maui
put up an excellent game from the
base line and Turner killed everything
he could reach at the net, but it was
the old story of steady, consistent work
against brilliant and cratic strokes
and Anderson and Low gradually
forged ahead, taking the first set e.,
the second ca and the third 6-3.
Clean and Hard Tennis.
This finished the tournament play
for the day and Honolulu was declared
the winner by the narrow margin Of
nine points and the handsome silver
trophy was presented TO the Honolulu
team for the season of 1909. The con-
tests throughout were noticeable for
good clean tennis and the result was
always in doubt. The hopes of the
adherents of either side would be
alternately raised and dashed to the
ground as their favorites would forge
ahead or fall behind, the interest was
at fever heat all through the match,
the rooters for both sides vociferously
applauding good plays and groaning at
bad ones, but all in the best of good
spirits and craftsmanship.
A delightful hop was given at the
new clubhouse in honor of the visiting
tennis players, commencing at s P. NJ.
The ballroom was lastly decorated
with flowers and incandescent lights.
Refreshments were served at II p. m,
and the guests left at 1l:30, in order
to catch the train that left the gate
of the grounds at this hour for the
wharf.
In conclusion, the reputation that
the good people of Maui have gained
for open handed and unselfsh hos
pitality is too well known to require
special mention, yet it would be I'M
possible not to refer in some slight
manner to the elegant reception that
was accorded, the many little courte-
sizes that were extended to us, and the
game struggle that the losers put up
to retain the cup. Let US all toast our
courteous hosts, plucky antagonists and
congenial friends-the greatest proof
of true craftsmanship and manhood is
to be a good loser.
The following is the score by
matches:

Maui Still Six Ahead.


The total score now stood Maui Il,
Oahu So. and Cooke and Gee, who had
drawn Foster and Collins, were urged
to go in and tie the score, and they
came to the scratch in great shape, tax
ing the first set in a gallop, 6 games
to /. The Maui team braced for a
short time in the second period, but
the Honolulu men were too steady and
won again by the same score Cooke
and Gee were evidently out for rec
ord, and they started in with a rush
taking four straight games with the
loss of but three points. There was a
short rally in the fifth game but it
finally also fell to the lot of the Homo
lulu players as did also the sixth
straight game. This was the highest
score of the day, the Honolulu team
scoring 10 points TO their opponent s
and putting the visiting team we'll in
the lead
A short intermission was now feclar
ed, tables were spread in the enclosure
and an elegant buffet lunch was served
the festive board fairly groaning I'M
der the weight of good things-fried
chicken, sandwiches. salads, cake, iced
punch and cold dishes galore were
served by a corps of competent walters.
Arrangements had been made to accom-
modate seven hundred guests and at
least this many were present It was
a most delightful interlude, the Maui
band playing appropriate selections
throughout

Honolulu in the Lead.

Promptly at loo p. m, play was re-
sumed, Honolulu now leading by SO to
43. On court No. Bockus and Water
house met Miller and R0secrans. The
Maui rooters besought their champions
to do or die and they went after the
Honolulu representatives with both
feet, taking the first two sets 6-3 and

tournament play but the turf court
seemed to take the steam out of his
strokes yesterday while Waterhouse did
not appear TO get started. being out of
condition from lack of practise. The
Maui team had determined to tie the
score and soon had the third period by
a score of ; games to l. Here Water
house and Bockus put up last despair
ing effort and by really clever work
won two consecutive games. bringing
the score to 5-3. 1t was their last
chance. however, the Maui team TAX
ing the ninth game and the match by
total score of Is to s.
As can be seen this would have tied
the score, but in the meantime CAPTAIN
Low and Anderson were playing the
game of their lives against Lindsay
and Turner. Lows service was seldom
returned and Anderson S net PLAY was
of the spectacular order. This being
the deciding and final match it was
apparent that all men were a trifle
nervous but it did not affect the play
of the Honolulu team in the least and
