the 22O yards dash, and the places
were filled Boy Godfrey. Hosea and
Hitchcock. but Hitchcock got second
instead of third The race was fast,
% 4-5 seconds, and down the straight
10 looked odds on that Ran Hitch
cock would win out, but Godfrey put
in "a splendid finish and won all out
by inches only, the race being decided
practically on the tape Hosea was
a yard or more behind Hitchcock
The 440 also went to Godfrey, won
easily. Aiau, Hussey and Godfrey ran
for the Kams against Ouderkirk. GLIB
and Anderson. Aiau made the pace a
cracker from the pistol shot and led at
one stage by anything between fifteen
and twenty yards, Glib and Godfrey
running stride for stride. Two hun
dred yards from home it looked as
though Aiau would win, but Godfrey
seemed content to remain with Glib
and let the second Kan string win,
/ but Glib was not to be caught by
/ these tactics and set out after Aiau,
! leaving Godfrey by a yard or two The
latter then crowded on pace, passed
Glib with ease and drew alongside
Aiau, encouraging him up the straight.
! But Glib also caught Aiau and God
frey had to go ahead He won easily
and Glib filled second place, while
/ Aiau lasted long enough to literally
throw himself across the line second.
I The time was returned as 81 seconds,
which means that Godfrey can run
the quarter in So seconds or less, if
needs be.
/ In the half mile the Kams were bad
ly beaten, Oahu College filling the
| first four places Nottage, l.. Williams,
Gay and Ouderkirk ran for Punahou.
while S. Hussey, j. Kauai, +. Kalani,
s. Luhaiwa and J. Kauwe represented
the Kams. Nottage started OFF at a
great bat, followed by Hussey, VIII
liams and Gay, the rest of the field
strung out. Nottage made every mark
I a winning post and was never in
doubt. Williams and Gay remained
close to Hussey until half the race
was run, when first Williams and
then Gay passed Hussey. Ouderkirk
made a good run from the three hun
dred yards mark and after passing
Hussey he all but caught Gay, racing
home just behind his shoulder. Not
tage won easily, Williams was second
yards ahead Of the rest and Gay beat
Ouderkirk home for third place by
about half yard. Hussey finished
fifth long way in the rear. Nottage
ran the distance in 2.15 secs.
There were seven starters in the
mile: p. Young, G.. Damon, Brown and
Alexander for PunahOu, and j. Amos,
K. Muller and W. Kama for the Kams.
There was no one in the race to push
Young, who started off at a halfmile
gait, and soon had yards between him
self and the rest Of the field. Damon,
Brown and Amos were close together
but as the race progressed first Damon
and then Brown left Amos. Young
was upwards OF sixty yards ahead on
entering the final quarter, Damon lead
ing Brown by thirty yards with Amos
fairly well up. There was little in the
final quarter. Young won by seventy
yards from Damon, who beat Brown
home by forty yards and Amos was
further fifteen yards behind Alex
ander was fifth, Muller sixth and
Kama seventh Young ran the mile in
4.j9 10, which is only ! 10 seconds
outside the island record, and this
Young hopes to lower before the
meets are over.
Godfrey did not start in the 220
hurdles, and the Punahou trio filled all
places. Kamaiopili, Waialeale and Pa
hia ran for the Kams, but they could
not keep the pace set by the Puns.
Kamaiopili stayed with the leader un-
til reaching the fourth hurdle, which
he knocked over and fell behind, being
unable TO catch tic leaders again.
Desha won easily, but Patty and Gay
had a great race for second place,
Gay getting in just in front Of his
team mate. The time was slow, viz,
20 seconds
