Qualifying Round for Manoa
Cup Event Played on Country
Club Course Yesterday Only
Sixteen Took Part and Six
teen Qualified
Bv ct ~

The qualifying round for the Ma.
noa cup, emblematic of the golf cham.
pionship of the Oahu Country Club,
was played off yesterday, a rather
slim field during off. To call the sc
holes of medal play a qualifying round
proved something of joke, for only
sixteen players were entered, and as
sixteen were to qualify for another
session of medal play next Sunday, it
naturally followed that everyone had a
place cinched before he started out,
provided he had the patience to keep
on playing no matter what difficulties
he encountered. Z
1t was the consensus of opinion that
the days play would have been con-
Siderably more interesting from the
standpoint of the game, If the mum.
Der to qualify had been reduced to
eight, owing to the light entry list.
Then everyone would have had to
work for his honors, and 1t would
have been a test of qualification in
fact as we'll as in name AS it was,
yesterdays play had absolutely no
bearing on the final rounds of the cup
competition. 1t was immaterial whe-
Their player put no good, bad. or
Indifferent brand of golf. for he was
bound to start next Sunday, and start
with a clean slate
Two prizes were offered yesterday,
one for the best net and the other for
the best gross score turned in. This
made an interesting competition out
of the davis play, and gave the golf
ers something to think about while
they plodded through the weary
rounds. And weary they proved to
most of the players, with couple
of executions. A SO followed by a
round somewhere in the fifties was
common occurrence. and such in-and-
ont golf has seldom been seen at the
Country Club.
The most striking exception to this
was Frank Halstead. who had the best
gross of the morning with couple of

Thirty-five Men Out and the
Coaches Hope for Win
ming Team

Punahou's sons Of the pigskin" have
turned out in force Snis year and give
promise of a team as good, If not bet
ter, than the teams of former years.
The boys are out every afternoon at
four O'Clock and working with will,
under the directions OF d. - Rick
er, Director OF Athletics, Mr.. Burdick,
coach, and Mr.. Wine, a. sistant coach.
Mr.. Kicker is already famous -
Punahou as the coach OF former teams.
Some of the fellows who worked I'M
der him are now star players on east
ern college teams.
Mr.. Burdick and Mr.. Wine, though
new at Punahou. have shown their
ability as organizers by the way the
boys have responded TO their calls for
more football material. Burdick was
q Kansas star before going to Yale
10 finish his college work.
The turnout this year is larger than
that of last year, 30 boys having turn
ed out this year as compared to about
30 least year. With such an amount
Of material to choose from Punahou
should be able to place another Win
ming team in the field this year,
though a good many of last years star
players have left.
Patty, captain of last years team,
who is now working in town, is col
lecting material for a town team
which will be composed mostly of
stars. Punahou plans to get an extra
series Of games through him.

NEW YORK, n. Y.-Heavy wager
ing on the result of the coming
worlds series between the New York
Giants and the Boston Red SoX has
begun in earnest. Thousands of dol
lars have been posted already both
here and in Boston, not to mention the
other major league cities, and the in
dications are that before the teams
clash in the first game a sum OF enOr-
nous proportions will hang in the bal
ance. A canvass of leading bettors at
various local sporting resorts Satur-
day night revealed the indisputable
fact that the Rex SoX are hot favor
ties and that the prevailing odds Of
fered by their supporters are five to
four.
Men Who backed the Giants heavily
last year, chiefly because the strength
and skill of the At-4etics were under
estimated, can not figure McGraw's
men in any way this time. Well-known
brokers and business men who make
a practise Of betting on sporting
events, showed memoranda Saturday
night covering strings of bets on the
Red Sox as long as your arm. In
each case those who backed the
Giants offered to I.
Prominent layers of odds, bookmak-
ers on the race tracks in former
years, have also made the Red SoX

gamblers were laying to against

YESTERDAYS GAMES.

Athletics 3, J. A. C. I.
C. A. u, Sunday off.

The Asahis and c. A. Us. managed
TO maintain their proud positions at
the head of the Junior League per-
centage table yesterday, the former
by winning from the Whites in an
extra inning game, and the latter by
taking a Sunday off and not going
within the danger zone of beating.
Both the morning games at Athletic
Park were we'll worth watching, and
a fair-sized crowd got more than it's
moneys worth. The opener, between
the Asahis and Whites, went ten in
nings and looked like the property of
the latter team until the final spasm.
The second game was hummer
throughout. Pitcher Mahuka kept such
a wary eye on base runners that he
nailed no less than seven off the bag,
and instilled a wholesome respect for
his speedy flinging into every member
of the team, that will have d moral
effect for some time to come.

will be composed Of new men.
Mr.. Kicker plans to have two teams
and possibly three. The first ream
will play a series Of games with Nc
Kinley High School and also with the
town team which Patty is now form
ing. Anoter series was expected with
the College of Hawaii but owing to
lack of material the College will NOT
have a team this year much to tn
disappointment of Funahou, as her
best game was played with the Co
lcge last year.
The second team will play a series
with the second team of Mckinley
High School and another with the ho-
nolulu School for Boys. No arrange
ments have as yet been made for the
third team.
The men who will play on the first
team have not yet been chosen. Mr..
Kicker is arranging for a series OF
class games which will probably come
eff during the week and the teams
will not be chosen until after these
games, which are an annual event at
Punahou.
A definite schedule of games has
not yet been arranged but the coaches
are at work on it and it will probably
BE- ready in the near future.

WORLDS SERIES TO
OPEN IN NEW YORK
TUESDAY, OCTOBER 8
4 Few Timely Facts About the
Banner Event of the Baseball
Season, Which Is Slated for
This Week

The opening game of the worlds
baseball championship will be held in
New York on Tuesday, October g. The
games will alternate between Giant
Vile and Boston-One game in each
city until the series is concluded
In the event of rain, it was decided
that the visiting team should remain
in town until the game is played.
The toss Of coin decided which
city was TO get the opening game. A
second toss, with similar result, fixed
the opening date. The Boston club
preferred Monday, October z
The umpires selected are: National
League, Klein and Rigler; American
League, OLoughIin and Evans.
The Boston club will control the
sale OF tickets in that city This is a
victory for President Ban Johnson of

In New York the sale of tickets
will be handled by the National Com
mission. Boston has worked out
plan whereby tickets will be deliver
ed, so far as is possible, to persons
who have already made application.
Tickets, good for three games each,
will be issued.
In New York, with view to defeat
ing the spectators, the only seats re-

block of rs for the National Commits
sion; two each for each member of
the opposing teams, and not over SO

White HOPES
+: KEEP APART
~ al - HI 2s4yF.Is.

SAN FRANCISCO. - While it can
scarcely be claimed that there is a
lack of pugilistic material just at
present, the promoters seem to find
II harder than ever to arrange match
eS of an attractive character. Various
causes combine to keep the best men
in the game apart. In some cases the
fellows whose services are most in
demand put their prices so high that
the matchmakers cannot meet the
terms and live. In others the pugi-
lists who are being, sought after pre-
fer picking their own marks to meet
ing the men selected for them by the
promoters. It's matter of protecting
whatever prestige has been gained by
lodging dangerous customers.
A half-year ago every white hope

This fellow Jim Flynn appears 10 be
the only white heavy willing to tackle
block terms. He went to Los Angeles
because he was told that match with
Tommy Burns awaited him there.
Then word came from Burns that his
business interests in Calgary would
deter him from accepting ring en-
gagements.
This seems strange in view of the
fact that Burns for months past has
besieged the San Francisco promoters
with requests to be sent against
someone in order that he might show
how completely he has come back.
Flynn is now on his way to New
York to try to arrange bout with Al
PalZer, but there again disappoint-
ment awaits him, according to all &C
counts. The story goes that Palzer
will not agree to meet Flynn until the
fireman has earned a reputation"
There is still a chance that Flynn
and AL Kaufman will be seen in &C

have agreed with Coffroth in regard
to most of the details and it is only a
slight difference in terms suggested
by both parties that is keeping the
contract from being closed.
