Baseball Game
AT Kaneohe

Down at Kaneoke on Sunday last
there was an interesting game OF

Koolau mines. The latter team won

were up in the air after that. A
fair sized crowd watched the game.

Box October 80
By v. I. STEVENSON.

Now that Charlie Reilly and Dick
Cullen are signed up to box fifteen
rounds on Oct. 80, Interest In the
game is reviving a lot, and the talk
around the sporting resorts all turns
to stoush.
Cullen. who has done good work
in Australia and in the States, has
started In to work for the coming
scrap and is rapidly getting into
form. 1t seems as II Reilly will be
extended to the limit when he meets
Cullen; the latter is a quick man
with his hands and has q wallop in
both fists.
Reilly's style is well known here.
and his many admirers will. no
doubt, support him to the limit in
the coming contest. Charlie Is in
good condition now. and needs very
little work to top him OF for the go
with the latest arrival from the
coast.
Last night there was gathering
OF sports at which the match was ar
ranged and the papers signed.
Many little matters were gone into
and for long time there appeared
to be chance OF q dead lock en-
suing. However. after talk about
these matters things were generally
fixed up without any friction.
The fight Is to be fought under
the clean break rules. and both men
have agreed to box at 1913 pounds.
The men should have no trouble In
making the weight. and the twain
should step into the ring ready to
battle for the Hawaiian lightweight
championship.
Reilly Is going to train down al
the Marine camp and will have plen.
ty of sparring partners for the next
ten days. The Marines are fond OF
boxing, and several OF them are clev
err with the gloves. Nelson. who II
well known to the boxing fans, Is al.
ways ready to don the mitts and roll
into anybody.
Cullen will work out at the Or
pheum theater, and he made starr
yesterday when he went four roundi
with Kid Terry. The latter IL m
aggressive little man and Cullen. By
the manner in which he handled the
Kid, showed that he knows all
about the game.
Cullen uses his head lot, and II
especially good In his foot work. He
has left that works piston fashion
and also carries punch In his right
that means trouble II ever 1t con-
meets with Senior Reilly.

High School Will
Play Hawaii College

There will be something doing In
the football line next Saturday.
when the College of Hawaii and
High School hitch up on the grid
iron. Both teams have been prac-
ticing hard, and the college boys
are prepared to do or die In their at
tempt to beat the school.
Football has caught on this sea-
son o. K, and. although there were
only a few spectators out at the
league grounds on Saturday last,
there are several reasons why It was
30.
In the first place the champion
tennis players were in our midst.
and quite a number Of people would
have gone out to the football only
for that fact. Then the Y. M. c. A.
crusade was on. and many more men
were too busy canvassing for the
building fund to find time to visit
the league grounds.
Next Saturday there should be
fine bunch of fans In the grand
stand, and 1t is to be hoped that they
are kept there. too. and not allowed
to crowd onto the side lines and
block the people who are seated from
seeing anything Of the game.
II there were no grandstand and
bleachers one could understand the
public being allowed to swarm along
the lines, but under the present con-
ditions no one except ofhcials should
be allowed on the side lines.
There win be practice Of the
Town team this afternoon, and all
the players who can possibly make
1t are requested to be out at the
grounds at 1880 or 4,45.
Tomorrow afternoon the Marines
and High School win have prac-
tice, and as the Camp Very boys
have been hard at work training fol-
some time, they should give the
school team hard tussle.
Although that king Of games
Rugby, is being played on the main
land, no move is being made to in
troduce the game here. It seems 9
pity because the California team
will be travelling back and forth Il
Australia In the near future and w
won't have bunch to put up agains
them.

w lking Race
Date Is Fixed

Last night the men who are in
terested In the annual walking race
along Kalakua avenue met. and
much enthusiasm was shown over
the matter. The meeting showed
itself clearly In favor Of amateur
sport. and II seems a. II start to
mitigate the professional evil IL to
be made ut last.
The walking race Will be over the
same course as that OF last year. viz.
from the junction Of Kalakaus ave.
nue. to the waikiki Inn, The prisss
will be useful little articles which
all men are glad to have. and a.
the merchants of the city will again
be invited to donate there should
be plenty Of prises for everybody.
Although no date was nxed for
the event, It was the thought that
December 12 would be about the
best time for the elimination race.
Once that part Of the race 10 pau.
the remaining contestants who have
covered the distance inside Of the
time limit will compete In the event
proper. which will probably take
place on the following Sunday.
A small entrance fec of twenty
Ave cents will be charged, and the
amount obtained expended on the
purchase pf stamps. paper, rope.
etc. At least fifty heel and toe art-
lists are expected to compete In the
walking race. and az tbs. distance ID
only about one and three quarter
miles. some Of the men should put
up good times over the dintance.
The local sporting writer's arr
combining on the proposition and
will do their best to make the race
success. A committee will be %
lected in the near future and al
arrangements perfected f0 the race
These strictly 9mateur events will
do a lot to encourage clean sport
and there is no doubt that there ar
plenty of young athletes In this cit
who are not after the coin all tn
time.
