Scarcely had the second half opened,
when Gardner, of Harvard, rashly
elected to pick up a bounding ball on
his vineyard line instead OF falling
upon It, and instantly he was swept
over the goal line In the strong arms
Of White for safety. and the decid-
ing score Of the game. Two weeks
later Yale, in the first ten minutes OF
play, was driving Princeton to the
goal line with bewildering shift
play. Suddenly, on pass from CEN
ter. the ball struck at the side OF
Dunn, fullback for Yale.
Sam White, dashing In from the
end, picked up the ball from the
ground as he would q baseball. In
stantly he was In full stride for Yale's
goal, eighty yards away. which he
crossed, carrying with him Arthur
Howe, the Yale captain, who had
tackled him on the Vineyard line And
thus came football championship to
Princeton Last week, ct Princeton,
Yale led Princeton by one run NupOn
the diamond. Princeton was at bat,
with one man out and the bases full
It was Sam White who came to the
plate in the crisis. Coolly he let three
balls go by, one Of them a strike, and
then met the fourth squarely with his
bat and drove 1t far over the left field
er's head, scoring three runs and win
ming the game.

Jack Joyner, who is training for

WINGED that life on the English turf
produces long life for both amateur
and professional horsemen. Joyner
passed this remark last Tuesday when
he saw an aged rider, with bushy

half as final workout for the historic
North Country two-mile stake race
called the Northumberland Plate. The

The venerable and veteran rider
was John Osborne, who was the
worlds premier jockey before Fred
Archer of England and Ike Murphy,
the colored American jockey, reached
their zenith. Osborne gave up riding

| PRINCETON, N. Walter Camp
once said, For brilliancy Of indivi-
dual achievement no teams have pro-
duced so many stars as those of
Princeton" As one reminiscently re-
calls the long list of Nassau's heroes
of diamond and gridiron, certainly no
one stands for such remarkable re-
suits as Sanford B. White. Princeton
has had men like McMann, McNair,
Moffatt, Lamar. Ames, King and De
Witt, who, alone have won great
game. and it has had q Poe, who alone
defeated Yale In football two years In
succession; but It has never had I'M
til now, In the person Of Sam White
an athlete who By individual achieve
ment has won two baseball games
from Yale and a football game both
from Yale and Harvard.
Some of those who have watched
Whites steady but unspectacular
style Of play, have been inclined 10
ascribe his sudden flashes OF wjnnine
sbrilliance to luck, but there Is some
thing more than luck In play which
four timer within two years has de-
feated Hafsefd and Yale. One year
ago last Jl,i- White won Princetbn's
third and deciding baseball game with
Yale. With the score q blank White
had reached second base. Sterrett
drove ashort hit into right field which
Corey gathered upon the run and
swiftly whipped to Merritt at third
to catch White White, according to
rule, should have slid to the base. In
stead he kept his feet, and taking q
daring chance rounded the bag and
leaped for the plate. The ball seemed
to strike Merritt's glove simultaneous
ly with Whites foot upon the bag.
Something, perhaps the audacity of
Whites dash for home, caused Mer-
rift nomentarily to iuggle the ball.
and in that moment White slid across
the plate with the winning run.
Football Too. J. ri i. S
Last autumn, in the Harvard
Princeton game, Dunlap, Princeton's
left end, knocked the ball from the
hands or Hollister, of Harvard, who
was about to try a drop kick. Almost
before the ball touched the ground
the ever alert White had seized 1t and
quickly was on for the goal, 100 ya1tis
away. in race in which he distanced

AUTO ROAD RACE
NOW CALLED OFF

The proposed road race in connec-
ton with the auto gymkhana. to be
given August II by the Honolulu Au-
tomobile Association, has been aban-
doned. The committee decided that
the Waikiki road was in too bad shape
to admit of running cars at high speed
along it, and that it would also be too
dangerous to have the cars burning
along King street unless traffic was
entirely suspended, which was inprac-
ticable. 49,. ..s I'D
The committee is going right along
with arrangements for the events at
Kapiolani Park, however, and the
meeting looks as though it would be
big success. >.ts. ...a..
This afternoon at 5 O'Clock the CON-
mittee will hold a meeting on the roof
garden of the Young 11otz-, ana all
members are requested to attend.

diameter. Each contestant must run
backward on feet and hands (aH
fours) to the circle. AS soon as one
foot falls inside the circle the runner
stands erect and returns to the start
ing point, where he touches the sec
ond man; who starts off backward on
all fours as did the first. Each man
of each team follows in his turn.
The variations of the obstacle re-
lay are limitless, depending entirely
upon the ingenuity of the teacher. A
simple obstacle relay is here given.
AS in other relay events the teams
line up in relay position. The first
man on his way to the opposite goal
is required to turn a backward SOM
ersault and on his way back to climb
over some simple barrier erected in
the. center of the ground. Each play
er in his turn performs the same
stunt, and, as in other relays, the
team whose last man crosses the
starting point first wins.

Walter Watson, widely known -

achievement was the discovery and

losing q bout with Mike Donovan, the
winner Of which was to be appointed
physical instructor OF the New York
A. c., went to San Francisco and took
charge ofsthe Olympic A. g. Corbett,
who was but q youngster at the time,
so impressed Watson with his glove
work, that the instructor informed
him he could make him success in
the ring. Corbett placed himself uu-
der Watson and soon became recog
nized as the most scientific boxer Of
all time.

ARRANGED
Tennis Players win Have to

t;on-The Entries

The big doings on Maui the end of
: this week will be further enhanced by
an interisland bowling match between
Honolulu and Puunene, provided that
there is any way for the locals to
make the crossing In other than
yachts or aeroplanes. With the In
ter-lsland steamers tied up to their
docks, and a genuine strike in prog
ress, II is possible that there will be
no transportation available, in which
case Honolulu boWlers and tennis
players win have to cool their heels
in their own back yard, while the an
nual Harvest Home celebration of the
Valley Isle gets along as best Ii can
without them.
The bowlers only received the Pu-
funene Athletic Clubs challenge day
or so ago. and there was a great
scurrying among the alley men to get
together team Bowling has been
dead here for months, and neither the
drives nor the rollers are in good
shape. However, some of the regu-
lars turned out last night, and went
against the wood to good purpose, de-
yeloping some good scores and also
some sore thumbs
The following well-known rollers,
who viii form five-man team with
one substitute, will make the trip to
Maui Friday:
c.. A. White, G.. r. Wilkinson, c. Al.

Fat men, attention., Here's a lit
tie information that you can't afford to
/ let slip by you. That Is. If you would
like to be really truly athlete, and
do all the stuff that the fellows over
in Stockholm wrote about, without
danger of becoming q grease spot on
the landscape.
Two Honolnlans have come forward
with scheme which sayors of genius.
After careful thought and deep study
they evolved the the0fy that raj, mena
even those whose athletic feats CON
|sist In running half a. block for d
street car, and that only In case 1t
happened to be the last one-wer
not In reality lazy or unambitious, bat
that they were held from joining In
competition with their Fellows through
q natural sensitiyeness over their size.
They believe that fats should trot with
fats, and Sims with Sims, while me-
diums should have hui all their own.
Out OF this theory. Bhas grown the
Fat Mans Hiking Club, with Al. H.
Greene and r. j. Schoen as Georgian
izers. Anyone who tips the scales at
200 pounds or over is eligible, and
when the club gets going some pleas
ant Sunday walks will be scheduled.
States automatically, it might be
said that the working formula OF the
new club is that the distance lis in,
inverge ratio to. the square of the
weight. Some gentle jaunts suitable
to conditions of climate and ayerdu-
pois have been suggested, one meet
ing with general favor being course
from the Moana Hotel to the Aquarium
and return on the same day. Another
good walk which may be taken by the
Fat Mans Hiking Club when all the
members have had a few months Of
training to fit them for it, is from the
