HALF OF
HILO SCHEDULE
BEGAN SUNDAY
HlLo LEAGUE.
Second Series.)

Especial Correspondence, Star-Bulletin.
HILO, July S.-The first ball games
of the second half of the schedule were
pulled off at the baseball park yester-
day, and resulted in the Hawaii ag-
gregation trimming the All White nine
by runs to 2, and the Hilo team put
ting it over on the crack c. A. c. bunch
by to 2.
Except for an accident whereby
Hayes, who pitches for the Honolulu
Hawaiis. had spike driven into the
back of his hand, cutting the veins and
putting him out of commission for sol..,.
time to come, the first game was de-
void of incident. The Hawaii team was
too strong for the All Whites, and the
score showed it.
The second game, between the c. A.
c. and the Hilo mines. was a good one.
The Chinese were looked on as being
able to win all the way. as they came
out ahead on the first half of the Sc
ries and had defeated the Hilo boys
more than once. Coming to bat the
Chinese failed to score, however. and
then the Hilo boys got busy and slipped
a run over.
Chinese Champs Lose.
In their second attempt the Chinese
managed to complete the circuit twice,
the, first run being obtained and the
second put well on its way by the
fashness of the Hilo pitcher. The bat
ter hunted ball right up to him and.
lazily picking it up, he went to send
it along to first, but suddenly changed
his mind and sent it in what he thought
was the direction of second. He mis-
judged. however. and the ball sped out
between first and second. while the
previous batter romped home and the
bunter made third in safety.
From then on until the eighth in
ming of the Chinese bunch was over,
the game was a good fight, both teams
holding each other down. In Hilo's
half of the eighth they slipped two
runs over on the Chinese and then held
them down for the ninth, thus winning
by one run.
The fans were tickled to death at
the result, as it will make the series
much more interesting, and they are
also not satisfied with the way in which
the Chinese showed up against the Ho-
nolulu visitors on July A.

'MATTYS' LIFESTORY READS
Y MORE like Fiction Than FACT

/ for the team, but he was soon bought
by rival team in a nearby town, re-
ceiving exactly one dollar game and
playing withsthe big grown-ups.
Graduating from Keystone in '9S he
went to Bucknell College. While in
Scranton that summer a Y NJ C. A.
game in which he struck out fifteen
men did much to focus attention upon
him, and when he later went to Homes
vile, Pa, he was given twenty dollars
a month and his board to pitch for the
home team. Before the season ended
he was offered $50 a month to pitch
for the Taunton club in the New Eng
land League, but this club disbanded
and he returned to Housewife, which
place. "Matty" says, became an import
ant mile post in his career. 1t is here
that he discovered and practised the
''fade-away' which later became of
great value to him, and be also ceased
to hit cross handed.
Breaks Into Football.
In the fall of the year. returning to
Bucknell, he played fullback upon the
college football team, as a member of
which he was then more widely known
than as a baseball player. This was
due to his ability as op-kicker In
fact. during a football game With the
University of Pennsylvania he scored
two field goals and his work brought
him to the attention OF "Phenom" John
Smith. former manager of New Eng
land League club. Smith signed him
up in the Virginia League with the
Norfolk club
"Matty' went back to Bucknell when
the football game was ended. proud of
his score in collegiate football and
with a contracts to play baseball for
Norfolk at $40 per month. His season
at this club was equally brilliant.
Twenty one games out of twenty three
were placed to his credit.
Selects the Giants.
This was his last minor league rec
ord. "Phenom'' John Smith had the
opportunity to sell 'Matty" to the New
York Nationals or to the Philadelphia
club and he gave ''Matty" his choice.
"Matty'' declared for the Giants, be-
cause he believed there was greater OPP
portunity, and he became a big league
pitcher when he was just 10 years old
The brilliant work he has done since
1900 is matter of vivid recollection
to every fan.
While "Matty" got a bad. start in
1900, subsequent seasons brought his
average up to remarkable point Out
of 421 games which he has pitched in
National League fights. he scored 2S9
victories and 49, defeats. In twelve
years his average has been 6S per
cent, and when it is recalled that his
first, three years involved winning with
a team that was then a. tailender. his
record becomes the more appreciated.
The Giant stars best season was in
1904, when he won 80 games and lost
but 8. In eleven postseason games
against the Athletics. Red Sox and
Yanks in the American League, the
Giant twirler permitted only II runs
What is equally remarkable is that in
90 innings played in postseason games
only Is developed tally. and in Sc
innings with "Matty'' in the box not a
player reached home.

is felt that although the $4,000 purse
