The town OF Baalbec contains some
5000 inhabitants, about a quarter Of
whom are Christians, writes Robert
Kitchens in the Century. 1t has a gar.
rison; it is the seat Of bishop of the
Greek Catholic church, It owns four
mosques, three churches. six schools,
-four monasteries, three hotels and a
Turkish bath; but all these glorles lie

ATHERTON RICHARDS DEFEATS
CAPT. LOW FOR WALL TROPHY

Playing by far the best game he has
played in the past week, Anterior Rich
ards defeated Captain Low yesterday
afternoon on the BeretanIa Club courts
in two straight sets, winning three out
of the five sets necessary to own the
Wall cup until it IS played for again
this fall.
Long before the hour set for the
match, friends of both players began
to arrive, and by the time the play
ers were ready to start fully two hum.
dred people were present to see the
play.
Richards won-the toss and took the
makai court which had the advantage
of being shady, although the sun was
not bright enough to cause any dis
comfort on the mauka court.
Both players started In with a spleu-
did exhibition of the game, Richards
winning the first game, on Lows SER
wee after some good rallies in when
he used his back hand and fore arm
strokes to good advantage. The second
game went TO Richards after he had
| forced the game to deuce several
times. During the rest of the set
many good rallies were made, the
| younger player managing to win with
a Ga score. After a few minutes
rest both players lined up for the fifth
and deciding set of the match which
was won by the coming champion by
CO score.
Low seemed to be firing during this
set, his playing not being up to his
usual standard as Richards managed
to pass him at will, his back hand
strokes well placed winning for him
point after point. More applause was
shown in yesterdays play than in any
other during the tournament, and
when the crack youngster finished the
match he was given a hearty hand
claping which lasted for several min
utes.
Richards played his usual back court
game, coming up to the net only three
or four times during the sets. With
more net playing Richards would be
able to give any one in the territory
a hard match for the honors
Out of the fifty-six games played
Richards won thirty games to Low s
twenty six, the scores for the match
being: Sc, GA, Sc, Ga, GO. This
next tournament for the cup will be
played some time in September.

Opening Games July 8.

AS official wore mas been received
from Japan relative to the Waseda
team coming, the date for the opening
games has been set for July at Attn
letic Park. The crack Japanese team
will arrive here on the Chiyo Maru
either July l or and will remain for
six weeks playing altogether twelve
games with the local teams.
A game will be played each Satur-
day and Sunday afternoon while the
team is here, the regular schedule Of
the Oahu league being played at the
completion of the international series
Great preparations are being made by
the local Japanese to receive their fell
low countrymen, and it is almost GER
tain that steamer will be chartered
to convey the band and officials of the
Oahu League with the reception COM
mittee, out to meet the Chiyo on her
arrival off the harbor. Reports have
come from Japan, that the Waseda
team have improved a good deal in
their playing, which if true, will be

Ready For Wren Race

At ten O'CLOCK Sunday morning over
the regular Pearl Harbor course the
fastest boats of the wren class VIII
start in the race for the H. E. Cooper
trophy which was presented last year.
Nearly every owner of these speedy
craft is expected to be ready when the
starting gun is fired and if strong
winds prevail the race should be mGde
in good time.
The keenesC rivalry of the right sore
exists among the owners of the small
craft, and the race on Sunday should
be one that will be long remembered.
Wilder, Bowen and Rletow all claim
that their boats are the fastest in the
yacht club and from all indications
the race should be between these three
boats although there are other fast
ones entered. A number of the own
ers expect to run down TO Pearl Har-
Dor tomorrow afternoon about the
same time, and it is almost certain
that good natured racee will result.
The Hawaii with a number of peo-
pie on board will also go down to be
present at the chowder that will be
made in the evening and to be IN
hand Sunday to witness the race.
From rumors in circulation among
the yachtsmen, a number of new wrens
are likely to be built in the near flu
ture, Or in time for the races on July
4. The next scheduled race for wrens
after Sundays will be on June 5 for
the Macfarlane cup.

good news of thee local graduates of
the Japanese University.
A few years ago Keio University
was able to defeat the Wasedas in the
series of games for the championship
of Japan, but it is understood that the
Waseda team easily defeated the
Keio's a few weeks ago Everyone
who saw the last international series
which we're played here two years ago,
remember what good game the white
stocking players put up, and for the
sake of assuring good games the To-
cal teams want to get in and do some
hard work at practice in preparation
for the coming games.
Season tickets for the series will
be On sale in few weeks, and to help
make the series a success, it is up 10

Navy Races Planned.

AS soon as official word is received
relative to the Pacific fleet coming
here this summer, a committee COM
posed of members of the two boat
clubs will meet the athletic officer OF
the fleet, and will endeavor to get up
races for the navy crews as a part Of
the regular program on Regatta Day.
Last year several races were held
between navy crews which proved a
success on Regatta Day, and If the
fleet should be in port a number of
added events are likely to be arranged
as Uncle Sam is always willing to al
low his men to enter any kind of sport.
Although no official word has been re-
ceived by Admiral Rees about the
fleet coming here, a number of pri-
vate letters have been received which
state that the Meet will be here some
time in August to remain several
months for target practice, etc.
Some of the fastest crews in the
navy are Oh OOdTu SHIPS VI Cne IdCiHC
fleet, and they are always willing TO
get out and race among themselves or
in fact with any crew that want to
race them.
Just as soon as word is received
about the fleet the regatta committee
will start on the program for regatta
day, which has always been a great
day in the history OF Honolulu
