All evidences of further eruption have disappeared and the atmos- phcrc has cleared in the neigh borhoOd of Mt. Katmai.

Especial StaT-Bulletin Correspondence
HILO. Hawaii. Dec. 16.-As the re-
suit of the unsatisfactory ending of
the boxing match last Saturday night
between Ben de Mello and George
lngle, in which the former was award.
ed the decision in the eighth round
on foul, it is practically certain that
there will be no more boxing in Hilo
for some little time to come. Rumors
are flying thick and fast and the bet

If there was something in the talk. .
Ingle's manager, Henderson, acted
as the referee Of the match and prac
tically all the spectators claim that
the foul which he gave the fight to
de Mello on was not a legitimate one
and that the whole proposition was
bad from the start. Since Ingle has
always been recognized as a cleverer
man than the local boy and able to
win should the bout 60 the limit, it
was surprising to see so much de

very much like wise" money, which
made the decision seem still more un.

there will be no return bout or If

CHINESE AND ]. A. C.'S WONT meet;
BOTH TEAMS Claim ALBERT AKANA
Chinese and Portuguese Will Play Series Which Should Be
Next Best to Real Championship Meeting That Has
Fallen Through Figures Show J. A. C.s to Have Been
the Better Team in Recent Series

It's too bad that the J. A. C's.,
champions of the Oahu League. and
the All-Chinese, victors in every game
that they have played since return.
ing from the mainland, cant get to-
gether for a final series. The ]. A.
.C's. battled desperately with the
Portuguese, and finally won out in
the fifth game, and a j. A. C-Chinese
series would really decide which Is
the best team on Oahu.
However, there is a hitch that
seems impossible to overcome, and
1t is rather odd one at that. Albert
Akana is the man that is keeping the
two teams apart, for he is the regular
first baseman of both aggregations,
and neither will consent to play with
out him. Akana is and has been for
several seasons past, member of the
j. A. Cs. When the Chinese went
to the mainland last spring, Akana
went along as captain Of the team,
and he, has continued as such In all
the games played since the return. In
the ]. A. C.-Portuguese series just
finished, Akana's fine sticking and
brilliant playing around the initial
corneG was largely responsible for
the teams success Naturally the
champions claim him for their own,
and absolutely refuse to break up
their infield by relinquishing him. The
Chinese have just as good an argu-
ment. They say that Akana is not
only their first sacker, but their cap
tain as well, and that to play with
out him would be ridiculous to con-
slider
So it looks like no J. A. C..Chinese
series. There is, however, a good
chance of Fortuguese-C Chinese
series, and as the former team is the
only one of the league that the Chinks
haven't met, there is an added inter.
est to the proposition which some

According to Walter Camp, the Yale

the old blue guard, is the greatest
football player he ever saw. When
asked the question, Camp said that a
recent occurrence on Yale field would
show just why he considered Fudge"
the greatest player Of all time. Wal
ter contends that Heffelfinger could
do everything as we'll as any other
player and whole lot of things that
no other player ever thought of doing.
Camp. says of HefTelfinger's re-
cent exhibition of his football ability:
"'Pudge.' in coaching the Eli
guards, insisted that they should get
into the interference, and they ex-
pressed doubt about their ability to
do so. Then 'Heff. the veteran of
