FITZGERALD
WILL co FAST

Jimmie Fitzgerald, whose first APP
pearance on the running track in COM
petition here will be next Sunday
when he will tackle Soldier J. b.
King over the fifteen mile distance,
is brimful of confidence regarding him
self. He has been a trifle affected
by the climate but nothing to speak Of
certainly not enough to bring his run
ming down to six minutes to the mile
in a fifteen mile race.
Just how fast l will run depends
entirely upon the conditions prevail
ing at the time of the race" he re-
marked. 81 am out to win and have
10 doubt that l will win sure enough,
but l do not expect that l will average
$40 per mile That would be some
thing like record, wouldn't it? The
present record is 1855, standing to
the name of F. ]. Crowley and that
works out at Al per mile. However,
don't anticipate breaking any rec
ords here, not just yet anyway, but
will certainly win on Sunday bar
ring accidents. l would like it better
if Hubbenette were in the race, but it
is lust possible that he will be here in
time, though it is not probable How
ever, after beating King l hope to be
able to get a race with Kaoo over the
full marathon course. He is the cham
pion of the Hawaiian islands over that
route and | think we would put up a
great race. would need few weeks
to train for that event, as it is hard
task for me to build up to run twenty
six miles. However, when Kaoo is
ready to race me l will be there to
run"
Fitzgerald worked out on Alexander
Field on Sunday afternoon and did
some really fine work, though he was
not timed. His style of running was
great. He runs all the way on his toes
and moves along almost without eff
fort, or so it seemed to the onlooker.
King is no doubt a pretty runner. but
the fans will be able to compare the
two men when they meet after next
Sundays ball game at the Park.

SPORT
TEAMS WORKING FOR KEIO SERIES

Among the baseball fans the fact
that the Native Sons have won the
championship series has almost been
forgotten in view of the enormous
interest taken in the Keio series
which is now almost upon u.s. The
greatest interest is taken in the Keio
team, and news of the time of their
arrival is anxiously awaited. AS far
as is now known, the Persia will be
in early on the morning of the
Fourth. possibly on the evening OF
the Bird, but even the most optimisti2
are not banking on the vessel getting
in ahead of schedule time. However,
as long as the Keio boys are here be.
fore one o'clock on the afternoon of
the Fourth, they will be in time to
play the first match against st. Louis.
The other teams in the league are
looking round with a view to getting
the best possible line-ups in action,
but everything is not going as
smoothly as might be desired. Franco
and Brito, two of the local Japanese
cracks. were approached with a view
to their playing for the Portuguese
during this series, both being quail
flied by nationality to do so, and az
one time it looked very much as
though they would agree to play.
However, the usual difficulty cropped
up; the Portuguese wouldn't divvy
up to the satisfaction of the two jan
anese players and the proposed deal
is therefore off. 1t is hard to under
stand just how Franco and Brito
could play for the Portuguese during
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-27

this series, in view of the fact that
they played for the Japanese through
the first series and, as far as the
writer knows, intend to play for the
Japanese during the next series.
Keio, as the matter is understood, IL
to play st. Louis and each team in
the Oahu League in the special Sc
ries. That being the case, it cannot
be said that the Portuguese, the Ma
tive Sons, the Stars or the Japanese
are at liberty to scout round for play
ers to strengthen their line-ups when
such players are not eligible to play
for their respective teams in the
Oahu League. Neither Franco nor
Brito could play for the Portuguese
in the Oahu series unless severing
their connection with the Japanese,
therefore how could they play against
Keio for the Portuguese?
Barney Joy cannot pitch for the
Stars in the Oahu League series, yet
it is currently reported that he is to
pitch against Keio, with All Toon as
catcher This is only provisional
dope, for if Soares does not catch 70"
the Saints. then Barney Joy will prob
ably be found behind the batter's box
for St. Louis. Whether Soares
catches for the st. Louis or not de-
ponds on the state of his farm. Tt is
hoped that he will not catch against
orders, for the fans want to see him
in the second series, and another
wrench to the injured member would
put him out of the game for the sea
son.
The Hawaiian star. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu]) 1893-1912, 1911-06-27

the rivalry between the various com
panies and to give rise to some dis
satisfaction.
The events were typically military the
two relay races being the only events
which are usually found on a civilian
field meet program, but here these two
events were open to teams of twenty
five and eight respectively in lieu of
the usual four. In both relay races
+ Company's team was successful,
the company team of twenty-five run
ming the $500 yards in nine minutes
fifty-eight seconds and the team of
eight cutting the mile in four minutes
eight seconds. But despite these two
successes F.. Company finished second
when the final points were totted up,
for G. had an aggregate of 80 and F.
had only 20; e. Company had 10
and II. Company only.
G. Company's success was due to the
first plaes gained in the tent pitching
competition, the tug-or-war and thu
running race with spare gun wheel.
The men of this company also filled
second place in the company relay
race of twenty-five a side, and in the
signal contest. In addition to the
two relay races,F. Company was
second in the tent pitching competi-
ton; II. Company was second in the
tug of-war and in the relay race for
eight men a side; e. Company won
the signal contest and was second in
the running with spare wheel.
In addition 20 these field events
six men from each company, three
passing as qualified and three as I'M
qualified, took part in a skirmish run,
which was won by H. Company by a
single point from F., with G. third and
L. fourth. The scores were H. go; F.
269; G. 262; and E. $50.
Major w. P. Burnham, in command
of the battalion, had charge of the
meet, and associated with him were:-
Lieut.. Bowen, starter and clerk of
the course; Lieuts. Andrews, Rogers
and Pardee, judges; Ordinance Ser
geant Williams and Sergeant Major
KTause, timekeepers; Captain Chap
man, range-officer; Lieuts. Graham and
McCleery, statistical officers; and
Lieut.. Pardee, pit officer.

OUTRIGGERS
MEET THURSDAY

There will be a full meeting of the
Outrigger Club at the public service
rooms Thursday evening to discuss
the matter of dues and the advisa-
bility of Incorporating. The dues at
the Outrigger Club for the first three
years, of its existence was fixed at
five dollars a year. At the last an
nual election ballots were sent in to
the number of seventy odd, while
only twenty-one members attended n
person, bare majority of those car
ried the election and the change. It
is hoped now that there will be full
turnout, and that the matters of dues
and the incorporation plan will be
discussed and a vote taken. The
present dues, fixed at the last cleo
ton, are ten dollars year. In re-
gard to the Incorporating of the club,
twelve members have petitioned that
the matter be reconsidered, and as
the club has not yet been incorpor-
ated, this matter will be voted on b.
all who have paid their dues up to
date.

DINNER TO NATIVE SONS.

c. Asao, OF the Central Cafe, some
months ago offered to stand a dinner
to the team winning the first series
of the Oahu Baseball league and yes
terday, in accordance with his offer,
he sent invitations out to the members
OF the Native Son of Hawaii and a
few select sports to attend this even
ing at the Cafe and partake of his
hospitality Asao is a baseball fan
whose enthusiasm is supreme. Not
only will he dine the Native Sons
this evening, but he also offers din
ner to the winers of the Keio series
and one to the winners of the second
Oahu series The Native Sons have
accepted the invitation and will be
present this evening to show their
appreciation of Asao's generosity.

LIVELY POLO PRACTICE ON MAUI

WAILUKU, June 24.-Quite an ami
mated scene was presented on the
Sunnyside polo field last Saturday
afternoon, when the Maui Polo Club
met for their weekly practice game.
Lined up along the sideboards were
a number of autos, in the midst Of
which stood the old grandstand groan-
ing under the weight of a large gath
ering of Mauis fair supporters of the
game. Notably present were Mes
danes A. w. Collins, F. F. Baldwin,
u. T. Fleming, E. A. Peck, Dora Won
Tempsky, j. b. Thomson, II. w. Rice,
Stanley Richardson, also the Misses
AleXa Won Tempsky, Marjorie Cooke,
Armine and Gwen Won Tempsky, An
ME Wodehouse, Gladys Van der Hoof,
Miss Muther, Frances Baldwin.
Six periods of seven minutes each
were played, those taking part in
the game during the different periods
being Frank Baldwin, Harold Rice,
David Fleming, Arthur Collins, Buck
Thomson, Louis Won Tempsky, Rev.
Turner, Jimmie Meyers, Geo. Steele,
and c. Burns. The game was fast all
through and many noticeably good in
dlviduals plays were made. Frank
Baldwin made a corking good goal

line after securing the ball from the

was hitting well and made a very
pretty goal, hitting the ball under his
pony, at a critical stage of the game.
Arthur Collins played No. 1, against
David Fleming, No. sticking close
to his man and doing some excellent
hitting and riding off. In spite of this
Fleming did some fir
back-hand work, and is, if possible
playing a better game this year than
ever. Harold Rice as usual displayed
his splendid Workmanship and played
with exceptional vim and dash, plac.
ing several goals to his credit. Jimmie

q polo ball from the back of fast

a tennis ball at his opponents feet.

distinguished himself by digging an
old ball out of a scrimmage at the
lower end of the field and nobly carry
ing it almost to his opponents goal,

INSURES GOOD
POULTRY SHOW

The Globe stated last week that
the citizens interested in the de-
veIopement of Idaho county s
poultry industry including the Of
ficers of the Idaho County Poul-
try Association, composed of Pres
ident Frank s. Rice, Vice-Presi-
dent j. A. Bradbury, Secretary
treasurer C.. +. Smith, and Execu-
tive committeeman John Nor
wood, M. G. Rambo and Robert
Hamill, had determined to leave
nothing undone to make the com
ing poultry show in this county
one of the most successful ever
held in northern Idaho. To that
end they presented strong pet
ition to the board of county com
missioneS last week asking for
an appropriation of $3.50 to help
the good cause along. The Globe
is pleased to state that the COM
missioners responded with the
needful, thereby adding enough
financial encouragement to what
the poultrymen have secured
from other sources and contribute
ed themselves to place the enter
prise on a good financial foot
ing, which insures beyond perad-
venture the success of this win
ter's show and guarantees
good, attractive list of prizes
which will draw many poultry
raisem with fine exhibits from
the outside sections. Lewiston,
Charleston and Moscow will no
doubt be on hand with the very
best they have, and that is as
good as they raise anywhere. The
local poultry fanciers are jubilen
over the present outlook Of
things.
