PUUNENE WON
TENNIS MATCH

Maui News; The Puunene GLIB
again came to the front Monday with
an inter-club tennis tournament The
playing started at ten o'clock in the
morning and continued until late in
the afternoon, with an intermission at
the noon hour, when refreshments
were served. The best teams from
the Paia, Kahului and Puunene clubs
participated in the tournament, and
some excellent tennis was the result.
The Puunene club won with a score
of 6S points, Paia 81 and Kahului so.
The committee in charge deserve
great credit for the manner in which
the arrangements were made, and
especially is this true in the serving
of the refreshments. The big crowd
were all seated in the big hall at the
clubhouse, and many were the express
sions of satisfaction at the splendid
arrangement.
After the regular tournament had
been finished a number of special
matches we're played between the diff.
ferent teams. Perhaps the one which
created the most interest was be
tween F. F. Baldwin and G. E. Meyers
against w. Walsh and ]. B. Thomp
son. Walsh and Thompson started
the first set with a rush and had theil
opponents on the run till it looked
like an easy win. Meyers and Bald
win pulled together, however, and wOr
the set, Sc. The last set was easy
and the players were all pretty wei
tired out.
J. ]. Walsh was on hand taking tn
picture of everyone and presenting
them with their photo encased in
dainty New Years card. This prove
quite a novel and entertaing featur,

of eight worlds records, one Ameri-

OF the Western athletes, Ollie Sned-

the local athlete being credited with
a toss of 166 feet inch throwing the

SOCCER RACE
GETTING HOT

The soccer for this afternoon will be
league games at Moiliili between High
School and Healanis and Punahous
and Males.
The teams engaged will be meeting
for the first time this season and some
good playing is looked for. as the
teams have had enough practise to be
able to kick and pass the ball with
some reasonable degree of accuracy,
a thing in which they have been lam
entably deficient so far.
Dease and Mclean will officiate as
referees.
All players are expected to play in
their proper uniforms. In some of the
games played this season a team has
been given sloppy appearance by a
player or two who took the field wear.

If the games worth playing it's
worth dressing for.

HINTS ON TRAINING FOR
ASPIRING TRACK RUNNERS

to fill your lungs at every step, but de-
velop a regular system of deep breath
ing, that you can maintain through
out the course. One of the best things
for a novice to do is to listen to the
advice of some old runner.
After the daily workout, the runner
should take the best care of himself.
A good rub down is the first essential.
Equal parts of alcohol and witch
hazel, with a little olive oil added, is
about the best muscle lubricant that
you can get. Knead the muscles gen
tly In case the feet get tired, battle
them in salt water or alcohol DO not
use the shower too freely, as it takes
the strength. Do not use hot tub
baths, as it will weaken you to a sur
prising degree. Between now and the
time of the race get tough and strong.
While training regular habits are
essential Get plenty of sleep and be
sure to have plenty of good fresh air
in your sleeping chamber. Take chest
and arm exercises in the morning, aft
er rising. Wear comfortable clothes,
and above all things wear good shoes
that fit perfectly. These rules apply
to both men whose daily occupation
requires physical or mental exertion.
The man who does brain work all day
will need more working out than will
the man who gets exercise when at
work
There is one last thing that can not
be overlooked. That is mental condi-
tioning. You will run the race just
as much with your head as with your
legs. Keep in a good healthy frame
of mind during your training period.
Afford yourself the proper kind of
amusements, and make certain in your
own mind that you will be prepared
to run the best race of your life.
Use your common sense in all your
training methods, and you cannot &C
far wrong.

GILMORE HAS
GOOD BACKING

George Gilmore paid The Star Office
a visit this morning and had some
thing to say with regard TO the state
ment of Jimmy Hoao in the morning
paper that he was willing to fight a
return battle with Gilmore, but that
a reasonable side bet must be in sight
before he would enter into negotia,
tons
Put in the paper said Gilmore,
that any amount that Hoao deposits
with The Star will be Immediately
covered by us. Money talks and 1t is
now a case of put up or shut up. /
am even willing TO leave the duration
of the contest to Hoao. Failing a
match with Hoao. Ben de Mello will
be next in line for bout"
All of which sounds very much as
if it were Hoau's next move.

OLD FIGHTERS
BAD FINISH

HOQUIAM, Wash, December a.
Lying face downward in a pool OF
blood in a shack at Cosmopolis the
body of Jack Harris, sparring partner
of John l.. Sullivan for his fight with
Jake Kilrain, was found at noon to-
day. The body had evidently lain
there since Thursday night, when Har,
ris was seen shortly after an alter
cation with a saloonman in a Cosmo-
polls saloon.
An inquest was held over the body.
The coroners jury declared that Har-
ris had come to his death from con
cussion of the brain, but the respon-
sibility for the tragedy was not fixed.
Harris had bled from the mouth con
siderably and his hand was badly cut
The saloonkeeper denies having any
fight with Harris, but it is said that he
hit the old man.
The coroner,s prosecuting attorney
and sheriff are In conference over the
affair tonight. 1t is thought that Har
ris staggered into the shack stun
bled in the dark and was killed by
/ the fall. Harris was well known in
the days when John L. Sullivan was
in his prime. He had been employed
as saloon swamper on the harbol
for some years.

With the local season for field and
track athletics just ahead a few words
on training may be acceptable.
Too much can not be said about
diet In this matter, like everything
else, there can be no ironclad rules.
The athlete must use common sense
in his eating. Above all things, avoid
rich pastries. Heavy soggy bread is
to be let alone. All pastries are best
left untouched What an athlete re-
quires is nourishing food that does
not require too much energy for di-
gestion. In the way of meat, steaks,
chops and good roast beef are fine
muscle-builders. Eggs can also be
used in various ways. Toast should
be served at almost every meal Most
vegetables of the drier sort are fine
for the athlete Baked potatoes, peas,
corn, beans, spinach and caulifower
are good examples. For dessert, egg,
rice buildings, steweG prunes and APP
pie sauce are about as desirable as
anything. If the athlete desires, ice
cream can be eaten, although spar
ingly, but never ice cream sodas.
Light plain sponge cake will help out
the variety in the dessert line. Fresh
fruits are good for the athlete 1t is
desirable for the man in training to
drink plenty of water before going to
bed, and between meals A few days
before the race the quantity should
be cut down,
For the beginner who has not done
much running there are several points
to be borne in mind. Run with body
inclined slightly forward, and take the
stride that best suits you. DO not try
to over-reach and be careful not to
chop your steps, so as to make your
legs go faster. Take the gait that
suits you best, and gets you over the
ground at a good rate. Use your
breathing apparatus right. Do not try

Where the water goes which has
