SETTLE THINGS
FOR TOMORROW
Riversiders Meet, and Arrange
for Opening Season at
AaIa.

The Angel of Peace seems to have
erside League, for everything is get
ting along at the meetings in smooth
style There are no disputes among
the five teams and every member is
acting in a most sportsmanlike man
ner The meeting yesterday at the
offices Of President Atkinson was
very good one. All the five CLUBS
were represented.
After the reading of the minutes Of
the previous meeting by the Secre~
tary, the members got right down to
business. The first thing brought up
was the report of the secretary on the
schedule for the 1909 season. There
was some talk about playing on holi
days, so that the season may be
brought to an end as soon as possible.
After a little discussion, the League
decided to approve the schedule as
presented.
Then President Atkinson informed
the League that he has appointed
Johnnie Williams as official umpire
and asked the members to pass upon
his appointment. Every team was
satisfied with the appointment, which
was Immediately approved, SO Will
liams will be the next man who will
hold the indicator at the Aala dia-
mond. L. Mon Tai was selected as
League manager to assist the treas
urer.
The lists of players for the different
clubs were also presented for approval.
The three teams, that is, the Palamas,
AaIas and the Chinese Alohas, filed
their lists. These were all APP
proved. Manager NJ. Paresa asked for
more time, as he has just been handed
the list by the secretary and was not
given the time to hunt up his men.
Lieut.. A. w. Chilton's list of players
also went by the same route. A mo-
ton was passed that the President De
authorized to approve these two lists
on a latter date.
The Aalas turned up for practlse
last evening at the Aala grounds. n
X Hoopii, who will be manager OF
the aggregation this season, was pres
ent watching his team going through
practise. Among those who are play
ing with this club is Tom Ulukou, al
one time a star performer for the
club bearing the same name in the
old Winter League. Then there is
David Desha, the fielder of the Puma
hous. Desha will make a good adj
dition to the Aalas.
A good day of sport is promised for
the fans tomorrow afternoon. Besides
the two regular games, the band ana
the opening stunts will furnish lots
of amusement. There is hardly any
doubt that the Aala Park grounds will
Ia. filed I'D to the limit.

BECKLEY CUP
RACE, JUNE 27

A change has been made in the yacht
club schedule. The Governor IS cup race
was postponed from next week until a
later date on account of there being no
moon and SO the regatta committee has
recognized the list as follows:
Sunday June~27, Beckley cup race.
July 3, 4, and ) cruise to Haleiwa.
July IL, Maefarlane cup race.
July 81, Governor cup race. This
is Saturday and the start will be made
in the late afternoon so as to enable
the yachts to finish during daylight as
the course is round the Island of Oahu.
During August there will be series
of sea wren races at Pearl Harbor or
off Honolulu every Sunday.
During September the Kalakaua cup
will be raced for and final arbitrary
handicap race will be sailed the latter
part of the month.

only too welcome to come out and
watch.
While there is much friendly joshing
going on between the rival teams. the
game will be really good one. Both
firms number a large list of league
players on their salary rolls and one
has only to look over the lineups to
appreciate the amount of class that is
there.
The game will certainly have plenty
of snap to it for there is keen rivalry
between the two teams and they are
both capable of putting up a game
equal to that of almost any team on
the Island.
Each aggregation has well organ
lied roofing squad and there will be
no lack of noisy encouragement.
Choice of bleachers will be decided
by Tipping a coin and each squad will
form either opposite first or third base.
It is hoped that Pedro will be able
to come out and umpire. At theftime
of writing he had not been seen on
the subjest. Should the big twirler hap
pen to see this, he is asked to make
a point of being on hand to hold the
Indicator. The lineups will be:
Ringers-Geo. Bruins, c; NJ. Pimen-
tai. r; Dom Paul Burns, 1b; Archie
Robertson, 2b; B. NJ. Sumner, 3b; M.
Joseph, SIS: Silva or Wilcox, If; Jack

'Tisers-Louie Soares, C; Jim Will
Hams, p; Che Bui, 1b; Henry Chilling
worth. 2b: Henry Williams, 3b; A.

picked from Albright, Kupau, Paul and
John Perreira, Pfmental and John
Bisho.

Accident
Preventers

Here are some excellent suggestions
for street driving, made to Auto Re-
view by Gratiot Cabanne, of the Odds
mobile branch:
/. When passing a street car which
has come to stand from behind, go
slow as it is dangerous to pass on
perfect control SO you can stop in it's
length.
2. In passing street car which has
stopped, going in opposite direction,
always go slow, as a pedestrian may
step out from behind street car, and
unless your car is under control so it
can be stopped in less than its length,
there is danger.
8. In passing street car from be-
hind on the right, go slow, as passen-
gers are apt to step off front platform
with their back to you.
4. In passing all covered delivery
wagons going in either direction, go
slow, as the driver of the wagon may
jump out to deliver a bundle before
his wagon has come to a stop.
5. In turning corners to the left
always keep to your right. Don't cut
across the short way, as it is against
the law, and in case of accident you
are liable for damages.
6. Slow down at the intersection of
all cross streets.
7. Blow your horn at intersection
of all streets.
s. Pass all vehicles going in same
direction you are going on their left
provided you don't have to go to the
left of the middle of the street. II
you haven t room to pass on their left
without going to the left of the middle
of the street, slow down; stay behind
them until you have room, as you are
| violating the law to pass them on theiI
right.
9. Always slow down and use horn
when you see one or more children
playing either on sidewalk, in yard:
or lots, as they are apt to run in front
| of your ear without looking.
10. Always slow down when you arr
following wagons or street ears OF
which children are stealing ride; als'
when you see passengers going to ge
off, as they don't always wait to ge'
off at street crossings.
| II. Always slow down and use horr
when children are on bicycles or skates
| in the street or on sidewalks. as they
are apt to fall in front of ear.

MORE ABOUT
MAUI JUNKET

Regarding the date that the local
cricketers will go to Maui, nothing
definite was settled at the meeting the
other day. This is to be left to vote of
cricketers, to be taken in the near
future. The possible dates are any of
three Wednesdays in August, II, Is or
25. The team viii leave on the Mauna
Kea on Tuesday noon and return on
Wednesday evening on the Claudine.
The latter steamer will be held over
at Kahului for two hours to enable the
cricketers to take part in dinner and
reception.
The fare for the steamer trip to Ma
vi and return will be 50. This expense
will be borne by the members of the
team. Outside of that there will be
no expense, as the Mauinese have ar
ranged to transport their visitors from
McGregor' IS landing to Kahului and to
house and grub them while they are
there.
There will be much practise from
now until the trip is made. The Secre-
tary of the club states that the actual
team will be selected some time next
week and that, in the mean time, those
who wish to go must turn out for prac-
tise or get left. OF course, every
cricketer who wants to go will be wei
come, but he viii have to do the spec
tator act unless he takes the trouble TO
get out and show that he can do some
thing.
A week from tomorrow, June 90, a
Itch

This win be by way of a tryout match
TO select the team to go to Kahului and

ness and some form viii have the best
chance of being selected to play on
the team that goes TO Maui.
