- I'VE PoL0-PLAYERS from Maui
r reached Honolulu this morning.
They are Captain F. F. Baldwin,
Arthur Collins, David Fleming, G. e.
s. Burns and W. n. Clark, and these,
with Harold Rice, who arrived last
Saturday, compose the Maui team
that win try to wrest the inter-isl-
and cup from Oahu. Burns and Clark
are the reserve men.
Captain Baldwin brings the word
that Maui VIII not be able to put q
second team in the field after all,
two of the team being out of the game.
Steele was hit in the head with a ball,
and temporarily put out of play, and
Thompson is also unable to compete
at the present time.
The Maui players look fit and ready
to put up the game of their lives
They will be seen in action fer the
first time against the Fourth Caval-
ny four tomorrow at Moanalua, and
Saturday will go up against their old
rivals, the Oahu blues. Before 3
this morning, the Maui stick swingers
left for Moanalua, to look over their
string. and get little individual prac-
tice.
Full Game.
A full eight period game will be
pIoyed tomorrow against the army
men. Last Saturday Captains DilIing-
ham and Ccok agreed to cut the
Uahu-Cavalry contest to six periods.
but the Maui men want to try out
their ponies, and play the full eight
chukkurs, In preparation for a hard
contest Saturday.
I believe that the Oahu-Maui game
will be one of the best ever played
in Hawaii" said Captain Baldwin.
Maui may have more ponies, but
when it comes to showdown. Oahu
always seems able to put a first-class
string in the field. look for great
game.
For the Cavalry-Maui game, the
army will have the same lineup in
the field as last Saturday. Cook will
captain the team from No. 2, with
Cullum at No. 1, Lyman 8, and Chene-
ly back. Flint will be in uniform
to fill in in case of accident.
Maui will play the same four men as
last year This year Harold Rice, the
little Teller of the team, who has
wasted away in strict training to
mere 205 pounds, will play No. i. and
Arthur Collins, who is some husky
himself, will be at the No position.
Rice and Collins have merely chang.
ed positions, and it is. said by ex-
perts who have watched the play of
the Maui men recently, that the shift
has greatly improved the team. Cap
tain Baldwin will play his old posi-
tion at 3. and Dave Fleming, with
his brilliant stick work, and cool,
heady play, will be at back.
AIEHawaii Opposition.
OF quite as much interest as the
championship itself, is
the scheduled game next week be-
tween the All-Hawaii team that cam
paigned on the Coast, and a picked
team The whole meat of the prope-
sitiGn Is to get the strongest opposi-I
tion possible, and 1t is possible to-
nominate four men who will give the
All-Hawaii outfit great run for their
money. In fact, there are a number
of well posted polo men who believe
that the All-Hawaii combination is
slated for defeat right here at
home
Probably the strongest team that
could be picked to go against the All
Hawaii would include three Maui
players and one Kauai star This
team, which is being talked of in
polo circles, consists of Harold Rice,
No. 1. Arthur Collins, No 2, Charles
Rice, No. 8. and Dave Fleming, back.
No selection has been made as yet
