DOCTOR MACKALL
TAKES ISSUE
Says Advertiser On Wrong
Track and Tells of
Work Done.

at was clever piece of politics
that the Advertiser did today in its
attack upon me and my work." said
City and County Physician Bruce
| Mackall today, especially in view OF
the fact that the appropriation bill for
the Board of Health comes up In the
| Legislature today and any reply In the
afternoon papers would be too late to
Offset the statements made by the
morning sheet"
Mackall was referring to the poi
shop ordinance and he takes Issue
| with every statement made by tho
morning paper except that there Is
| politics In his department. He ac-
knowledges such to be the case but
claims that there is even more poll.
tics in the Board OF Health than in
his department.
"If the Advertiser knows that any
OF my inspectors have neglected their
work let that paper publish the facts
In the case and prove them, that is
all that ask" said Mackall.
| In speaking of the two bills to re-
gulate the manufacture of poi for sale
| DR.. Mackall says that the two bills
are practically identical.
Each of these bills was drawn M
by President MottSmith of the Board
| of Health" he said land there are
some slight amendments made to the
one which was passed by the Super
visors.
The height of the walls was re.
duced In the County bill to three feet
from six. and shall recommend that
| this be reduced to one foot, for that
matter
Poi shops with a floor space OF
six square feet with a six foot wall
are practically hot box, and there
Is no way of keeping them clean
With a wall foot high there Is plen-
ty of light and air and the rooms can
be flushed out with running water
without trouble"
| In regard to the suspicion" that
the legislature was holding back the
bill, DR.. Mackall says that 1t is Z
fact for the matter Is one for the
counties to regulate and as long rs
the City and County of Honolulu has
cone so there Is nothing for the leg
islature to do In the matter
"Yes, for two years the inspection
of the shops has been done by the
City and County and In that time the
inspectors have reported some In AT
insanitary condition. At the same
time the Board of Health inspectors
lhave reported that they were al
right What could we do? there was
Evening bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1895-1912, 1911-04-06

no law TO cover the case and we wcro
pOwcrless."
Continuing Mackall said that tho
Board of Health saw no reason to
consider any shops filthy until the
cholera broke out ana then because
It was suspected that infected Poi
came from one shop all the shops in
the city we're closed.
THAT move was perfectly absurd.
said Mackall for instance the shop
at the corner of Fort and School
street Is sanitary and has always been
so. yet II was closed with the filthy
ones.
"lf q shop was located near fl
thy tenement or stable why did the
Board of Health not close the tenc-
ment or stable ms cad of the poi shop,
that Is what | want to know" he
said.
In regard to the dispensary work
being taken away from the city and
County physician, that official says
that the quarters occupied were ne.
cessary for n bacteriOlogist for tn
bureau of health and that President
Mott-Smith offered to take over the
dlspensary work IL the City aud
County would give up the quarters.
That there have been no milk tests
recently Is acknowledged, but this Is
on account of the milk inspector be-
ing detailed with DR.. Case In the sec
ond tubercular tests of dairy cows
test which the Advertiser advocated
most strongly.
when II comes down to the gar.
bago department criticism" said DR.
Mackall, at Is fact that the first
month we cleared one hundred dol
lars over all expenses using the same
force IN every way that had been
used in the past. 1t Is true that tho
expenses of the department were
more. but during the cholera scare
we had extra men and extra teams
cleaning up and this extra expense
was met by II special appropriation
from the Board of Supervisors" con.
| cluded the physician.

9ILA, JUNK OF GAub JUNCTION

The scheduled basketball game be-
tween the Young Mems Christian Asso-
citation Reserves and the Gallaudet Col
lege Reserves at the Kendall Green
gymnasium, failed to take place, al
though q large crowd was. present last
night anticipating a hot contest. No
reason was given by the Y. M. c. A.
management for the non appearance of
the quintet.
The fact that exactly three good bas-
ketball games, two for the Gallaudet
varsity and the other one for the Gal
laudet Reserves, had to 60 over this
week Is by no means pleasing to the au-
thorities in charge Of the athletics at
the Kendall Green College. especially
the event Of last night. wherein the Gal
laudet Regulars had to take place OF
the Y. M. c. A. Reserves and play with
the Buff and Blue Reserves to amuse
the throng present. The varsity had a
hard time Of 1t in beating the young
sters in a rough and tumble contest
by the close score of At to 30. The goal
shooting of Foltz for the losers was the
stellar attraction of the evening.
What action the Gallaudet basketball

King Cole Gives
Tight Place Advice

when you are in a tight place do not
try to put all you have on the ball"
This is the advice King Cole. star pitch
er Of the Cubs, and one who has been
near the top Of the list ever since he
entered big league ball, always gives
when asked for pointers. Cole has been
famous in the past for his ability to get
out of tight places. and goodness knows
he was in enough tight spots last sea-
son because Of his tendency to give
walks.
when I was pitching for Bay City
in the Southern Michigan League some
years ago l learned this lesson" says
Cole. Whenever I got couple Of men
on base with none down my heart used
to go pity pat and l generally tried to
put my widest curve on my fastest ball.
The result was one Of two things; either
I passed the man or the batter would
slug It a mile.
II came to figure out the dope that
the batter was In as much of q hole
as the pitcher. When he is up there
at the plate with a couple or three on
bases. with runs needed to tie the score

nervous or excited. He'll hit at balls
he wouldn't dream Of going after II the
sacks were clear. Then was when /
used to feed him with foaters or dinky
curves up around his neck or down at
his knees.
Since l Joined the Cubs I've tried the
same tning ana II works as well with
the big batters as 1t did with the minors.

cross you and drive her out, but In the

GOOD ELEVEN IS
PICKED FROM NEXT
YEARS CAPTAINS
Six of the Mythical Squad
Are on All-American
Team.

At the end of the football season every
enthusiast Immediately sits down and.
with confused recollections. an assort-
,ment Of clippings. a lead pencil and a
furrowed brow, proceeds to put together
that mythical assembiage known as the
"All-America Team" As almost every
player in the country gets q place on
some of these organizations. no ones
feelings are hurt. 1t does not seem to
have occurred to any OF the universal
board Of solicitors. however, that a pref
ty fair eleven could be constructed from
next seasons captains. The following
aggregation should get through a hard
schedule without losing many games.
Ends, Ashbaugh, Brown, and Hoeffel.
Wisconsin: tackles. Devore, Army.
and Probst, Syracuse; guards. Bennett,
Dartmouth, and Whiting. Chicago; cen.
ter, Morrell, Minnesota; quarterback.
Pendleton. Princeton; halfback. Thorpe,
Carlisle, and Spaulding, Yale: funback.
Mercer, Pennsylvania.
Six out Of these eleven men were men
toned on "All-Amertca' teams selected
by men prominent In the football world
and the others were all players above
the average. OF course this team might
be improved later after other universal
ties and colleges hold their footba.,
