IKEPAION HAS
HIS SAY over
RECENT Mill

Mike Patton. the we'll known referee
and sporting man. sends the following
communication, with a request that it
be published. Mr. Patton explains that,
as he was publicly criticized. he wishes
to make a public explanation. The
Star Bulletin regrets that the cause of
clean sport in Honolulu should be en-
dangered by factional disputes of this
character, but it seems only fair to
Mr.. Patton that he be given an oppDr
tunity to present his side to the sport
ing public, and his communication is
therefore given the space requested
Honolulu, T. H., July rs, 1922
Sporting Editor Honolulu Star Bulle-
tin. Sir:
Through the columns of your ealu-
able paper desire to reply to an ar
ticle published in the morning paper
censuring me for acting rs | did in
the recent Mccarthy Cordell bout.
/ would say if my honesty is the
only personal cause of my not referee
ing any more bouts here for the local
promoter, would like to have him
know that ! was not refereeing for
him, but for the public.
His personal complaint Vas that 1
should have let them fight 1t out Now.
I would like to know from this pro-
moter il in his whole life he ever knew
of a bout being stopped by referee
as being a fake and all bets called off,
and the man continuing to fight.
/ stopped the Sullivan Peterson bout
at the Orpheum. called all bets off, and
the men to fight on Sullivan was will
ing to continue. but Peterson left the
ring. The latter was trying to win on
a foul
Now, to any of the local fight fans
that have anything in their craws in
regard to my decision. / wish to state
that these are the few, not hundreds,
that were in on the trick that was to
be pulled off on the public.
also wish to state that promoter
of bout should not take any cog
nizance on the betting side, but i can
prove that this promoter did.
The promoter says the contestants
should have fought it out to see who
the purse should go to. wish to state
that when two men fight fake, an
honest promoter should not give the
men any purse at all. The promater
did. If he did not he would be pro-
tecting the public. Very respectfully
yours. MIKE PATTON

SH0RTST0P NOT so BUSY
AS IN "YE 0LDEN DAYS.

An unexplained change is going on
in baseball, according to bob Wallace
of the Browns. The Scot is serving
his eighteenth year in the big league,
most of it as an infielder. Therefore
he should know whereof he speaks.
81 have noticed in the last few
seasons that the shortstop has had
fewer chances than in the olden days,
says Wallace. at is nothing now for
shortfielder to go through regu-
lar nine-inning game and handle only
three or four chances, whereas, sew
eral years ago, the average was about
nine or ten. ! well recollect one
game in which l played that | had
nineteen chances. But when short
stop is called to handle anything
above seven or eight now he has a
busy afternoon"

Luxe At CAFE
DE ]. JOHNSON

Some weeks ago, as previously
noted in these columns, the Cafe de
Champion, Jack Johnson's eat EN-
porium for blue blooded blacks, was
opened in Chicago, with the popping
of many champagne corks. The place
is unique in many ways, and the Big
Smoke certainly extended himself to
the limit when he planned and exc
cuted the undertaking.
The following, from a Chicago
paper, gives more details OF the es-
Enlistment:
The Cafe de Champion. catering, as
its owner emphatically insists, ito
de African aristocracy and de fiowah
and chivalry of de yanquished and
aspiring white race, will open tomor-
row night at No. Al West Thirty-first
street.
John Arthur Johnson, flippantly re-
ferred to as Jack" is the restaura-
teur. For elegance and taste. its
owner says, the eating houses of the
world will be totally ecIpsed.
"Ah might modestly say" said Mr.
Johnson, that all have travelled

A portrait of Johnson, who adj

PORK and bean
PUGS FOR Union

PHILADELPHIA, Pa.-Owing to
Pennsylvania'e lack of commission,
boxing conditions In this State are
in q rather chaotic state and open to
criticism from all sides. but espe-
cially from the lighters themselves.
At present boxing regulations are
in the hands OF the police. but they,
having so many other duties to at
tend to. are unable to devote suf.
ficient time to the sport. and there
fore 1t goes along In haphazard way,
much to its own injury.
The principal complaint comes
from the fighters. who claim that they
are not fairly dealt with by the man.
ayers of the clubs. Often they are
promised bouts, and after training for
them and going TO the expense of get
ting themselves At. their engage
ments are called OF and substitutes
put in their place. with neither an
explanation nor remuneration being
given.
Then. also. there is no regulation
covering the prices to be paid the
men in the preliminary bouts, and it
being left entirely to the managers
themselves the pay is so small that
many are discouraged from entering
the ring.
OF late there has been much talk
of starting union devoted to profess
sional boxers in order that higher
prices might be obtained by the pre-
liminary men. Many reforms are
needed and the best method of effect
ing them seems to be the New York
plan with a special commission regu-
lating all the affairs connected with
boxing.

tournament has been repetition o|
1.-The 1911 event, with Maui playing the
part formerly taken BY Kauai. II
will be remembered that Oahu won
| its first game from Kauai. the lat
Tier beating the Cavalry ia the sec.
fond play. Then along came. the sol.
diers and gave Oahu the licking Of Z
lifetime.
This year, however. Oahu is far
stronger, with Sam Baldwin and Ar
thur Rice on the team, while the Cav
airy has not such an experienced
back in Doak as was Quekemeyer.
Doak played his position we'll last
Wednesday. but he isn't the balance
wheel of the team that Quekemeyer
proved to be, nor could this be ex-
pected Of so young player.
On ponies Oahu has the better of
the argument, the mounts having con-
siderably more foot In this depart
ment, however, the difference won't
be SO marked as in the Maui game
Wednesday.
The teams win present the same
lineup as each has put into the game
already played. For Oahu Sam
Baldwin will play No. 1, Harold
Castle No. 2, Walter Dillingham; 8,
and Arthur Rice back. The Cavalry
will have Sheridan at 1, Hanson at 2,
Forsyth at 3 and Doak back. Lieuten-
ant Naylor, of the Field Artillery will
again be the referee, his work in the
two first games having given perfect
satisfaction.
Came Starts Promptly.
Play will start at o'clock, and as
the other two games have commenc-
ed on the dot, it is probable that the
coming one will be equally prompt.
Wednesday the Cavalry discarded
its colors, and played in white. as

will sport their yellow shirts again,
and this is considered a lucky omen
by their supporters.

The final game Of the polo series,
and the one over which there is the
greatest amount of interest locally
viii be played tomorrow afternoon at
the Moanalua field, between the Oahu
team and the four of the Fifth Cav
airy. On this match hangs the re
suit of the tournament. A win for
Oahu will mean the championship,
while if the Cavalry is successful,
the whole series will be a stand-off,
with each team winning one game
and losing one, as was the case last
year. In this latter event II will

are predicting something like 10 to 6
in favor of Oahu.
Cavalry Due for Brace
There are a number of reasons why
the Cavalry should make a better
showing against Oahu than against
Maui in last Wednesdays game. To
begin with, the Army players got
such lot of bad polo out of their sys-
TENS that they are morally certain to
play a much improved brand to'uor-
row. The last game didn't show she
Cavalrymen playing the best game

the former and Maui, and while this
is not meant to imply that the Cav
airy loafed on the job Wednesday,
they will certainly go after the game
lot harder Saturday. with the sting
of the last defeat still squirting them
on.
Oahu is ready to meet any attack
that may be launched at it. Men and
ponies are in first class condition
and the players, while not making the
mistake of thinking they have the
game tied up ready to take home.

them. This does not mean that he
