Kahanamoku was. the sensation OF
the year. His marvellous sprinting
made the worlds best look like child's
play. Unused to tank-swimming with
its puzzlfng turns, he held his own
with such performers as Perry Nc.
Gillivray, Kenneth Huszagh and Dick

the Olympic games and there compel

Honolulans who saw the Olympic
games mt Stockholm last summer can
be counted on the fingers Of one hand
and yet several Thousand Honolulans
have 2 clear and accurate idea of the
way the 1912 olympics were handled,
the appearance OF the stadium, and
the personal characteristics of the
athletes. All this through the NOV
ies'; which have caught the very spir-
Il of competitive sport, and stored II
away for the pleasure and education
of those TO whom Sweden is as mac
cessible as Saturn. .,@.E
Al the Liberty theater, for the last
three nights motion pictures of the
Olympic games have been thrown on
the screen. There are three full reels
OF the Stockholm games, and taken as
a whole the film is probably the fin
est that has ever been shown in this
city. The pictures are wonderfully
clear, and the patching is done with
such good Judgment that It is as
though the spectator was afforded a
birds eye view OF the entire perform
ance. A. little bit of everything is
shown, and one can get an excellent
idea OF festival of sport which last
ed more than ten days, In less than an
hour.
or course the local audience took a
took see for Duke Kahanamoku, and
was somewhat disappointed when one
brief glimpse OF the Hawaiian swim

athletes past the royal box in the

SITUATION REVERSED;
AUSTRALIA TO SEND
sri BAL TEAM, JocSTATES

Australia has taken up baseball in
earnest and is now preparing 10 send
a picked nine to the United States.
This is the news brought to San Fran
/: cisco by C. c. Sphinx, publisher of the
St Louis sporting News. who arrived
recently from Sydney.
Australia, he says, is the greatest
sporting country in the world. and, al
thought its adoption of baseball is COM
paratiVely recent, there are already
more than 500 Australians, men and
boys, playing the game. He didn't see
any games while there, but from Amer
lean fans living in Sydney, men who
knew baseball when they saw it play
ed, he learned that the Australians
were putting up a good sample of
Americas national game.
They are raising the money now to
send their best nine to this country"
he said The Oceanic Steamship com
pany has donated $500 toward paying
the steam's expenses and the Spalding
people have promised a similar sum.
The Australian government will help
with a contribution and the different
cities of the commonwealth will be
asked to contribute. They expect to
raise $500 and will be over here in
a few months"
Cal Ewing was to have accompanied
Sphinx to Australia. but at the last min
ute changed his mind. Sphinx intended
going from Sydney to China and Japan,
but did net like the steamer on which
he would have he'd to make the trip,
so returned ON the Ventura.

TOO MANY DEAD.
HEADS AT. MAUI.
RACE MEETINGS

WAILUKU, Maui, jan y15.-The an.
nual meeting OF the Maui Racing As
sociatien was held last night In the
Wailuku Town Hall. There was good
attendance of members. The meeting
was certainly one of the liyeliest the
association has held for some time. w.
III. Robinson, the former president, was
re.eiected by aeclanatiUB ID. II. Case
and Ben Lyons were nominated for the
Vice presideHicg, and Mr.. Case won
out. w. y. Crockett and &. K. BeTfns
were nominated for the office OF secre-
tary-treasurer. Mr.. Crockett. who held
the office for the last year, vas re-
elected. BY reclamation, Angus Nc
Phee, Louis Won Tempsky and d. T.
Carey were elected the executive com.
rittee, who, together with the officers
OF the association. have charge of get.
ting up the program for the Fourth of
July.
The discussions of the evening were
arounsed by the fact, that the associa.
ton is in debt, and the members felt
that every means possible should be
taken to place the Maui Racing Assoc
citation on a firm financial basis. Sew
eral members thought the fault lay in
the admission Of too many people on
membership passes, while others felt
sure that the purses should not be
made so large IN the future. 1t was
remarked that one year q man took %
members of his family into the grand
stand. He brought in not only his i'm
mediate relatives but those connected
with him in the most distant way. The
members of the association felt that
the privileges OF free entrance into the
races should be confined to members
only, and perhaps the wives of the
members. After some discussion two
motions were passed unanimously
which provided that a. member and one
lady accompanying him should be ad-
mitted free; that for each visitor who
resided away from Maui the member
should obtain a ticket from the presi-
dent with the name of the visitor writ
ten upon the ticket, for which was to
be paid the usual admission, both at
the gate and at the grandstand. Sew
eral hundred dollars were lost last
year by the carlessness OF the men,
bers In paying no attention to the
rules. 1t is expected that this year the
receipts will be much larger than for
some time in the past.
The executive committee. together
with the officers, are to make up the
program of races for the Fourth and
meeting of the whole association is
to be called as soon as the program is
ready for approval. 1t is confidently
expected by all members of the Maui
Racing Association that the coming
Fourth will be the biggest day in the
history of the sport on the Valley Isle

Hind Beats Undertake in Fast
Three-Set Match That Brings
Out Best Tennis of the After
noon = Johnny 0'DoWda's
Chances for Final Honors Are
Fancied

The second round in the Punahou
tennis tournament was played off yes
terday afternoon, amid much excite
meIlt and interest on the part of both
Spectators and players. Many Of the
.sets were extremely fast. Perhaps the
best match played during the after
noon and the one which aroused the
most interest, was that between Hind
and Undertake, the former winning,
81. 0-6, Ga. The first set of this ex.
citing match was undoubtedly the hest,
as both players were fresh and played
up to the mark. The second set was
an easy one fer Timberlake, but the
third set Hind rallied and came. out
with colors flying. = Z. z7st..s re.
O'Dowda and Renton. the two. crack
players from Eva, both won their re-
spectiye sets easily, 0'Dowda defeat,
ing Meinecke with two love sets and
RentoI defeating Coney Go, and 6-I.
The game which is being looked for.
ward to with great anticipation among
the students Is the one between
o'Dowda and Renton. which viii come
off in the semi-finals on Friday.
AC anu SCt6 III tySo-
terday's games were as follows:
J. Watt defeated M. Campbell. &c.
6-3, "a; H. Fassoth defeated r. Horne,
81, GA; D. Wadsworth defeated G..
Glib, 6-3, 81; j. o'Dowda defeated J..
Meinecke. SO. Go; A. RentoA defeated
w, Cohey, 60, Gil, T. Hind defeated
w. Tfmberlake, 81, 0-6, 81; C. Emory
defeated r. Gray, Ga, 70. u.
Tomorrow the semi-finals are to be
played. and there Is good deal Of dis
cussion as to who will get through to
the finals. The players who appear to
have the best chances are 0,DoWda,
Renton and Hind. All three are good
players and it would be hard to. de.
eide between, them, but. from results 20
far obtained it looks as though
o'Dowda has a little the best chances
to win top hopors. .
