The work of Reilly and Cullen last
week was mere boys play compared to
the plans of both men for this week.
Everyday from now on will be busy
ones, all sorts of stunts having been
mapped out by and for each of the
fighters. Difficulty was experienced
last week in securing live punching
bags for the experts, but a few of a
calibre to stay are in sight for the re-
mainder of the training period.
With the arrangement of the preli-
minariess announced on Saturday, the
details of the program may be re-
garded as complete. From now on
there will be merely the routine of
training. The box plan for the con-
test will be in the hands of Fitzpatrick

reserved seats may be obtained.

MARINES EASILY
|. BEATEN BY TOWNS

In the game of football at the
League grounds yesterday afternoon
the Honolulus passed it gently and
easily to the Marines, who were not
in it from the beginning to the end
Of the game.
Neither side was in especially fine
trim, the playing in general being
trifle rusty. 1t is believed by some,
however, that the Townies could have
made an even larger score than they
did with little extra effort.
The score was 6 TO o..
The officials were: Lieutenant Bow

Johnson, field Judge; Bill Rawlins
and Will Dixon, timers.
The next game will be played on

CHINESE AND JAPS
PROVE VICTORS
OLD TIME BASEBALL PUT UP BY
THE OAHU LEAGUE YESTERDAY
AFTERNOON.

The old-time article of baseball was
revived at Athletic park yesterday aft
ernoon, two splendid games being put
on by teams of the Oahu League. In
the first contest the Chinese Athletic
Club bested the Kalihis, to the tune
of 8 to 0, but only after the fiercest
kind of a fight through every inch OF
the game. lhe second battle was one
of the hardest struggles ever witnessed
on local baseball field. 1t was be-
tween the U. S. Marines and the Japa-
nese Athletic Clubbers, resulting in
victory for the latter by the close score
of to g
The crowd was quite large and en-
thusiasm ran high. The Hawaiian band
was present and discoursed lively airs
between innings.
CHINESE AND KALIHIS.
In the first innings no runs were
made and the crowd began to feel that
there was going to be a close game. In
the second innings, however the Chi
nese with bases crowded, succeeded in
getting a man home The Kalihis fail
ed to score. In third innings neither
side advanced beyond second base. In
Chinese made a run on two-bagger by
En- Sue The Kalihis failed, although
bases were full when the side was re-
tired The fifth and sixth innings
were without incident In the seventh
En- Sue struck for three bags and on
passed ball at third, scored. The Beers
again failed to tally.
The eighth resulted in a couple of
! goose-eggs, and the ninth ditto.
MARINES VS.. J. A. c.
The Marines started out badly, fail
ing to score in the first inning and let
! ting the Japs in for two runs The
latter were made by heavy batting on
the part of the ]. A. C's and rather off
quality of fielding by the half-wets. At
the beginning of second innings, Cap
tain Davis, of the Marine team, collid-
ed with the first basemah and was
knocked out. Soares ran for him and
on safe hit by Peyton scored. The
Japs failed to tally in their half, and
in the third innings neither side scor-
ed.
The fourth was notable for much
stronger playing by the Marines, the
heady work of Gibson and Soares be-
ing particularly in evidence In the
fourth the half vets succeeded in maxi
ing one run and shutting out their OPP
ponents, tying the score.
In the fifth innings it was three
strikes and out for both sides, and in
the sixth not a man reached first base
In the seventh there were no runs, al
though the Japs got man to third
base. In the eighth the Marines failed
to score and on a series of bad errors
let the Japs in for a run The Marines
failing to score in the ninth brought
the game to a close.

REVENUE CUTTERS
ARE DISTRIBUTED

WASHINGTON, November { All
the revenue cutters on the Pacific
coast have been assigned to new sta
tons since their return from the Ber-
ing sea and the Arctic ocean. A new
system tor cruising these vessels has
been inaugurated, with the intention
of making every vessel of special
value to shipping interests in the
matter of assisting mariners in dis
tress.
For this purpose the cutters have
been stationed along the Washington,
Oregon and California coasts, and
each has been given particular cruis.
ing orders. The Tahoma will be in
Puget Sound and the vicinity of Cape
Flattery, the Shohemish at Neah Bay
Wash. (Stra1t of Fuca), the Manning,
at Astoria, Ore, the Mccullough at
San Francisco, the Perry at San Ped
70, the Bear at San Diego and the
Thetis at Honolulu
Each will cruise over their several
districts and are directed to give en-
ergetic attention to the needs of ship
