In a few days the schedule of games
for the Honolulu Roller Polo league
will be announced, which will be play
ed for the cup donated by the man
agement of the Princess rink.
The Marines have shown beyond a
shadow of a doubt that they are the
best players in the city, although they
have been beaten, and if they con-
tinue to play in the future as they
have done in the past they will win
the cup.
The Town, Princess and Fort Shat

that they know how to play the gamea
and before the season is over the pub

Golf Today at o C c

Although there is no regular tour
nament scheduled, a large number OF
golfers are expected to take advan
tage of the links at the Country Club,
today and already several teams have
consented to play in unofficial tour
nament for dinners and ice cream
sodas.
At the present time the links are
all that could be asked for, by even
the most critical of players, and be-
fore darkness settles over the course
some good scores are likely to be tunr-
ed in. Some of the players that have
expressed their intention of playing
today are: Armstrong, Walker, Gift
fard, Campbell, Evans, Klebahn, Bel
ser, Dougherty, Sorenson, White, Hal
stead, Spencer, Gill, Jordan and Sam
Walker.
The next regular fixture on the golf
calendar at the Country Club, is the
DOGGY tournament which will be play
ed all day on May 80 FOR the handsome
prizes that have been hung up by the
greens committee.

Race viii Be a Success.

Judging from the amount of work
done by the people who have the 10
mile race at the league grounds on
May 80 in hand the race should prove
to be a success in more ways than
one... Every runner VINO feels con-
fident that he can run the distance, is
out daily on the roads getting in shape
for the race which ought to be made
in good time with the use of the oxy-
gen machine, which will be used here
for the first time in any sporting
event.
Jackson is running better than he
ever ran if reports are true from
those who have seen him daily, and
the crack distance man is out not only
for the prizes but also to equal the
record for the distance.
Ayres, Hayes, Comes, Kaoo, Cor
man, Csarlie and the rest, are training
daily for the race which is causing no
end of interest, and with the added
feature the oxygen machine, large
crowd will no doubt wend their way
to the league grounos on the after
noon of Memorial Day.
No news has been received as to the
running ability of the Japanese VINO
halls from Hawaii, but his many To-
cal friends say that he will surprise
them all on the day of the race.
The track will be surveyed and
marked next week so that the official
distance will be covered, in the event
of any one breaking or equalling the
worlds record for the time. Both
Hayes and Jackson are making excel
lent time in training, and if they dc
the same during the race the record is
likely to be broken.

ing played as usual in the preliminary
round AS Gee won the champion

through his untiring efforts in getting
the court in shape, has stimulated
such an interest in tennis that every
day from early until late players can
be seen in action.
A number of good players are at
present guests of the house, and near
ly every one has entered the tourna-
ment which will no doubt last for
several days. Some of the ladies that
have entered are: Miss Parsons, Miss
Glenn Miss Sewall and Miss Hawks,
and among the gentlemen, Mr.. Banta,
Mr.. Edwards, Mr.. Bartlett, DR., Frear,
Mr.. DEER and DIR Case.
Judging from Miss Parsons play
ing, she and her partner Mr. Banta
should be well up in the semi finals
if not in the finals.
Play will be started this afternoon
at two thirty and will be continued
daily until the tournament is over. In
the preliminary round the matches
will be the best two out of three, and
the semi-fnals and finals the best
three out of five.

Another Cup Promised.

In addition to the Wall cup trophy
for the best tennis player in the Be-
retania club, another prominent en-
thusiast has about made up his mind
to present a cup to be played for by
every player of the city regardless of
club, the deed of gift TO be under the
same conditions as were made when
Mr. Wall presented the cup which
bears his name.
Tennis is a game that I would like
to see established even more so than
it is at present" said the prospective
oonOr at The Beretanla club on Thurs
day AFTERNOON, and l have almost de-
cided to present a trophy providing
that l can secure the sanction of the
Tennis Association to allow the cup to
be played for every year"
Although the person is unwilling 10
have his name mentioned at present,
lit is possible that he may con-
sent to having his name announced in
q few days. 1t is possible that one
change will be made in the deed of
gift, inasmuch as the players will be
obliged to play from scratch. For
the sake Of the game it is 20 be hoped
that the H. T. A win consent to al
low the tournament to be played, as
one of the regular fixtures on the
tennis calendar.
