The Sea Wrens, the Pearls and any
other class of open sailboat around the
islands are eligible to compete for a
cup presented by Max BOlte to the
Honolulu Yacht Club, the races for

TRAINING FOR
THE FIGHT

Jim Hoao and Soldier Jim McGurn
are making fine progress with their
training for the ten-round boxing con-
lest scheduled for the Asahi Theater
on Monday night and fans are hover
ing as to which Will be first choice
with the majority. McGurn has a
strong array of hackers behind him,
but this is mainly on account of the
fact that he is a more experienced
man with the gloves than Hoao and
his ringcraft is expected TO counter
balance the advantages Hoao possess
es in the way of reach and height But
Hoao is shaping so well that he is
adding to his list of friends daily and
when the men strip for the contest it
will not be surprising to find the Ha-
waiian a favorite over the soldiers.
at will certainly SC tie limit" said
one who has the right of entry
into both camps, "and I think Hoao
will give McGurn such a torrid time
that the referees decision will swing
in favor of the Hawaiian. Hoao has
never been extended, and while Nc
Gurn is a good man, do not think he
will be able to score many telling
blows on Hoao. The Hawaiian is an
improved boxer; he has gained con-
fidence since he last boxed and will
not ratified by any of McGurn's bull
dog PUSHES"
This is all very well, no doubt, but
in McGurn's camp the greatest optim-
ism prevails and the soldiers friends
are looking for a short contest, but
merry one. They expect that the two
men will get together in the first
round and that there will be no let up
until one of them measures his length
on the boards and stays there until
the fatal word "Out" is spoken by the
referee.
Bauersocks and Fink are expected
to put up an entertaining contest,
which will call for a decision by the
referee. The match is expected to
run the full term and that Bauersocks
will have the best end of the stick
when the final round is concluded.
Cans and Sarconi supply the third
contest of the night and from what
has already been seen of these two
men, Cans seems the most likely to
win. All the men are training hard
indulging in walking and boxing
stunts The prospects Of an interest
ing evenings entertainment are bright
and Promoter Nigel Jackson is san
guine of pulling off as successful Sc
ries of contests as has been witnessed
here for years.
BY the way, sportsmen generally
will be interestd to learn that Jackson
is to be the promoter of these verdant
isles. He has his head chock full Of
schemes whereby he proposes to raise
sport from its present lowly position
and exalt it to a high plane. He is
quite serious about the matter, too,
and will tackle an athletic meet very
shortly.
