HARD WORK FIRST
Then FUN FOR
ALAMEDANS

Fourteen Alamedans are now en-
route to Honolulu on the liner Sierra,
due here September Is, according to
q Letter received by ]. B. Lightfoot
this morning from e. B. Thorning,
who is managing the trip. Rooms
for the crew and the ladies of the
party have been engaged at the
Young, and plans are already under
way for giving the visitors royal
good time after the races.
Mr.. Thorning writes that the Ala
media oarsmen will attend strictly to
business, and be under rigid training
rules until after Regatta Day, when
the athletes will begin on the pleas
ure end Of their trip. No date has
been set for the return, and there, Is
a chance OF. some members of the
party spending several weeks in Ho-
nolulu.
The following are in the Alameda
party:
MT. and Mrs. E. B. Thorning, Mr..
and Mrs. Henry Hess, Mr.. and Mrs.
Henry Nielsen, Mrs. ]. II. Sommers,
Mrs. Celia Haskins, John Lewis. Os-
car Sommers. Fred Hacke Jr. and

The harbor was so full Of racing
craft yesterday evening that stone
tossed off any dock would have gone
through the bottom Of q barge. The
Healanis, Myrtles. and Puunenes were
all out. and With the several crews q
each organization, the course was well
filled.
Considerable interest was shown u
the work of the Maui oarsmen, and
it must be admitted that yesterday
this was not very impressive. The
visitors don't seem TO stack up with
the Honolulu crews either in form or
execution, although they were appar.
emily under wraps and not extending
themselves much. STILL they may
spring surprise on Regatta Day, al
though the local senior crews are
worrying more over the oarsmen from
the Coast than over the Maui men.

a TRANS-ANDINE
WIRELESS TELEGRAPH

To the credit of building the nrst

The LimaIquitos wireless towers
and power plants, which were formally
dedicated to the Government and pub

tute the latest notable advance In the
science of communication. So great
was the innovation that the Telefun-
ken Company itself would not guar

would Justify their doing so. So great

made the early experiments leading up
to the determination to make the es-

did not hesitate to authorize the ex.
penolture.
The Government had intended to re-
