ALL-HAWAH POLO
TEAM PLAYS
TOMORROW
Strong Opposition for the Men
Who Campaigned on Coast.
Game Starts at 2:45

Tomorrow afternoon polo enthusi-
asts will have long-looked for
chance to see In action the All-Hawaii
four. that covered itself with glory IN
California last winter, winning i've
out of nine big tournaments. and prov
ing TO Coast and eastern experts that
polo of high class is played In Ha-
wall. The strongest opposition avail
able. in the opinion OF a committee
of four competent judges, has been Sc
lected, and the game at Moanalua to-
morrow should be as full OF thrills
as any seen here heretofore.
! The AlEHawaiis line up with Arthur
Rice. No. /; Harold Castle, No. 2;
Walter Dillingham;. No. 3, and Frank
Baldwin, back. Sam Baldwin Is sub
stitute.
The picked team Is really the fast
Maui four with Charley Rice OF Kauai
substituted for Frank Baldwin. This
looks like the fastest thing in the polo
line that can be chosen from avail
able material. with the five men who
made the coast campaign eliminated
Walter Macfarlane win be I'M uniform
as substitute for the Picks.
Owing to the fact that Arthur Rice
will have to make close connections
between the polo field and the steam
er that will take him to Kauai tomor-
row evening. the game win be started
at 2:45 sharp.
Polo in Hawaii will receive great
impetus from the organization OF q
team by the 1st Field Artillery. The
first battalion OF that regiment has
just arrived here from the Philip
pines, and among the officers OF the
three new batteries are a number OF
good polo players, who have been
playing the game in the Philippines,
and who expect to keep 1t up here.
These men bring the word that q
string of 20 first class ponies has been
picked out. and that the animals will
arrive from the states In short
time. The second battalion Of the
regiment, which has been at Schofleld
for some time. numbers several good
players, and the First should be able
to put both a first and second team
in the field next season.
Lieutenant L. A. Beard, who played
on the crack 9th Artillery team that
won the army championship last year.
is with the battalion that just arrlg-
ed from the Philippines. He was an
interested spectator at Saturdays
game, and afterwards said that the
polo was much better and faster than
he had expected. and that they play
ed far faster polo in Hawaii than n
the Philippines.

{. 5. GEE GETS
A BIG BOOST

4. s. Gee, who while in Honolulu,
connected with the pay department
OF the navy was very prominent IN
tennis affairs, is now the leading man
in tennis in the Philippines. Gee
has run off several successful tourn-
aments. and succeeded last year In
importing several California players
to take part in the Manila carnival
tournament.
Now the Manila Bulletin, under the
head of ,-Hoos Hoo in Sports,
prints Gees picture with the follow
ing lineless 1elfant of his many vir-
tues:
WHO put the lis IN tennis in old
Manila town? Who ever since. he
landed here has worn the tennis
crown? Who, when he's on the ten
mis- courts is stupid as a fox, as slow
as streaks of lightning. and as feeble
as quartz rocks? Who doesn't know
thing about the good old tennis
game, except to beat the stuffin's out
of all who doubt his fame? Who
kept the cables busy tween Manila
and the Gate, until those western ten
mis- sharks just had to bow to fate?
Who's just a living dynamo, full of
the Invest juice? Who doesn't know
the meaning of that old phrase
What's the user Who is the hum
bic subject of this Tennis-onian glee?
Why, no one else but Edwin s., best

LA CROSSE.-It takes lot to
awaken George Barber, a Mindoro
business man, when he composes him
self for slumber. Last night there
was a terrific storm at Mindoro, fif-
teen miles above here, and bolt OF
lightning struck the room In which
Barber was sleeping, tearing the plas-

ANOTHER TITLE
FOR JACKGUARD


Jack Guard won another tennis
championship Saturday. A week ago
he annexed the Y. NJ. G. A. title and
Saturday hast he repeated by winning
the finals of the Hall cup tournament
at the Manoa Tennis Club. Guards
opponent was X. B. Barnes, who won
the cup in the previous play for the
trophy, and it took four sets Of rat
Ting good tennins to decide the match
Both Guard and Barnes we're handi-
capped at owe SO is, so they met on
even terms. Guard had his speedy

him to get the net effectively. Barnes

at passing, and most OF his points
were won On clean passes on either
side, that struck near the baseline.
Guard lest the first set, and the last
set went to deuce, but the match and
title were Guards finally, score As,

At Neighborhood-4:3o, Littlejohn
VS.. w. Marshall.
At Pacific-5, Lowrey vs.. Warren.
The tournament that will decide
the singles tennis championship of
the Hawaiian Islands, for 1913, will
start this afternoon, with the one pre-
llminary round match called for by
the draw, and three first round match.
es. Play will be at three different
clubs, Beretania, Neighborhood, and
racific. and two of these matches
should bring out some first class ten
mis-.
Perhaps the best game on paper is
that between Jack Guard and Lieuten-
ant Robertson, who will play at Bere-
tania at 4.30 Robinson is the best
player among local army men, and
he has been working hard at Scho-
held Barracks to get into practice for
this event. Guard has also been play
ing steadily, and In the last week has
won two important tournaments, the
Y. NJ. G. A. championship, and the
Hall cup event at Manoa. He is
therefore on edge for competition, and
1t should be great fight between him
and Robinson today.
Allan Lowrey, semi-fnalist in last
years championship, and captain OF
the Harvard tennis team this year,
may be hard pressed by the old-time
expert w. L. Warren. Their match
will be played on the Pacific courts at
5 o'clock.
flay will go right on tomorrow as
the tournament must be hustled
through on account OF the out-of-town
players. The original plan was to
lay of for the All-Hawaii polo match,
but this Is impracticable. 1t is be-
neved that the singles can be finish
ed Friday, and the doubles started
Saturday. Only seventeen players are
entered in the singles, and there are

TULANE MACHINE
IN POOR CONDITION
The Team Is Unprepared for
Approaching Battle With
Mississippi

New Orleans, October 15.-That the Tu-
lane football team will have pretty
tough job on their hands when they meet
the Mississippi college on the Tulane Sta
dunn next Saturday seems to be the out
look as far as the dope" is concerned.
The Mississippi college boys played a
14-1S game with the Mississippi 'Aggies.' %
and according to that they must be a
pretty husky bunch of pigskin artists
On the other hand, while Tulane won
the game from the light jefferson college
team last Saturday, Jefferson outplayed
them and might have won the game had
1t not been for several costly fuihbles.
OF course, the Tulane men had had but
very little practice, and as far as hav-
ing worked together as one particular
team had no practice at all. as they were
at all times trying out the men indi-
vidually, and in various mixed squads.
Coach Hoffman will put In his time this
week getting down the actual team work,
and by next Saturday a great deal of
Improvement may be expected from the
men. Especially so, sas the coach has
not yet picked his varsity line-up, and
will probably not do so until after the
game next Saturday.
Emmett White. who made such good
showing last year in the l.. S. U. game.
as left end on the Tulane team, is out
again this year, and is expected to do
some good work for the local collegians.

VIRGINIA HAS
GOOD ELEVEN
The Squad Possesses Speed,
Weight and Experience.
Outlook Promising

Charlottesville. Va, October 15.-Speed,
weight and experience is the rare COM
bination Of qualities which Coach Warren
has secured in his 1913 Virginia varsity.
The team as it now stands is a well-bal-
anced machine of men physically ht The
alumni coaches who have been working
with the team all say that the team this
year compares favorably with previous
winning teams turned out from the uni.
yersity.
The team was built around seven let
ter men and there is really only one new
man on the lineup. White, at left end
was not out for football at all last year.
Ray, at half, is making his first appear
ance on the team, but not on the squad,
as he has been working with them for
the past two years, last year and the year
before he was hurt early in the season
and could not continue. All the rest of
the men have had year or more train
ing either on the team or on the squad.
This experience is a great asset to the
players and to the coaches, who are not
compelled to build team out of green
material.
The weight of the team is centered in
the line, which has an average weight OF
lS7 pounds. The ends weigh loo and 157,
they being the two lightest men on the
team. Brown. a 191-pound center, is
fianked by 216-pound tackle on one side
and "a 222-pound guard. The weight of
the bac1field is 1863 pounds as an average.
Ray, the heaviest man in the backtied,
weighs III. The weight is well distributed
and gives the team a good balance The
! average of the whole team is $50 pounds.
The backfield is the speediest seen in
| action on Lambeth field In some time.
Mayer, at one of the halves. is a 10-sec-
ond track man, and Gooch, at quarter,
has shown his speed In his broken field
running. Landes and Ray, the two heav-
ier backs, have failed to show any slow
ness so far. The lightning work of this
backfied has featured the games played
so far by Virginia. The two ends are
speedy in getting down under punts.
White is probably the fastest man in the
lineup.
In all probability a good substitute
backfeld can be formed with Coleman,
Flanagan, Speer and Randolph, but \
second string line is note there. Primar-
lily, there is no weight outside the regu-
lars.
Georgetown and Vanderbilt are feared
most on this account, because it is these
games that will give the forwards their
most severe test. If Warren and Warner
cannot develop more linesmen, the games
will be a gamble purely and simply on
the endurance Of the inner quintet.

.CONv|CTS RETURN TO
TURPENT|NE PLANT
Brewton's Mayor Grants
Requests of Men-Sent
Back to AtmOre

Montgomery, October 15.-(Special)
Work of repairing city streets offers few
er attractions to Brewton convicts than
labor about a turpentine camp, even
though the camp be operated by the Hux-
ford-Orvin Naval Stores company, hence
the Brewton convicts have asked to be
returned TO Atmore. At Brewtos they
were compelled to work the streets under
the honor system but they longed for
the smell of the turpentine. to hear the
rustic of the wind in the tall pine trees
and to inhale the ozone of the great for
est Therefore, they requested Mayor
Leon G. Brooks, municipal head of the
city of Brewton, TO return them to the
Huxford-Orvin turpentine camp.
Their request was reinforced by strong
appeal from the Huxford-Or Naval
Stores company. from whom the convicts
had been taken at the request of the gov
ernor, following the many revelations of
cruelty at the camp. Moreover, the COM
pany offered to pay the fines of all the
cony.V.s and to take them back as free
laborers.
Mayor Brooks yielded to the double re-
quest, and the street workers. who had
grown weary OF the ''honor" system and
who sighed for the smell of turpentine
and the great pine forests, were re-
turned to Atmore as free laborers
Mayor Brooks wrote the governor fully
In regard to the matter today. The head
of the municipality of Brewton expressed
his surprise that the convicts had pre-
ferred to go back to Atmore. but said
there was nothing else to be done on his
part, particularly since the company had
paid the fines OF all the prisoners.

CASUAL TIES IN
J FOOTBALL LARGE
Records Show That New
Rules Do Not Lessen the
Chance of Injury

Chicago, October 15.-The weekly list of
football injuries is appalling as compared
with records of Casualties" in combats
of 10 years ago, according to an authority
on the gridron game writing today in
the Chicago Daily News.
Despite the new rules, many of which
were designed to eliminate roughness and
lessen chance of injury, the new game
makes the ''old' look like a parlor pas
time, he says.
The critic does NOT blame the present
code or method of play for all injuries,
but says the changes develop in part.
He cites the instance of one university
of Chicago player weighing only 142
pounds, who went through four seasons
under the old rules, carrying the ball
more than any other players on his team
and yet asked for "time OUT only once.
Several years later successor to this
player, Weighing more himself but oppos-
ing men of less weight than the "old
timers" was taken out in his first college
game suffering more bruises than the first
named got in his whole career.

Atlanta, October 15.-The stock Of the
Tech Yellow Jackets for the present foot
ball season has taken another rise until
it is now rated about par. The one hole
in the machine has been effectually
plugged up.
Hugh Mauck, the giant athlete, whom
Atlanta fans will remember as center
of the Fifth Regiment basketball team
for the past three seasons. has matricn-
lated at the school and is out for the
football team.
Mauck is a yertable white hope. He
weighs 225 pounds and is feet inches
tall, and strong as an OK. For a man
of his build and heft he is remarkably
fast and should prove tower of strength
to the Jackets.
Mauck has had some football expert
ence, being the star lineman of the Stone
Mountain eleven few years ago. Since
then he, has been working in Atlanta.
Being desirous of rising in the CONNER

course at Tech.

II happened to be in the stands when
the Athletics We're playing In ST. Louis,
said Johnny, in speaking of the matter
Joe Lake was hurting for the Browns
and he had a splitter breaking in fine
shape. For a few innings the Mackmen
popped the spitters and then they began
to let them go by and laced the fast

The matter was simply this. The Mack
men had caught the signal which Lake
was using to designate the real splitter

''the Athletics never talk. Every man
sits quietly on the bench and watches
the game. Pretty soon a man will grab

Chattanooga, October 15.-(Special)
The terrific speed with which the Ath-
letics drove balls through the infield was
one of the most conspicuous features of
the worlds series just passed and the
most generally commented on. Time and
time again the Athletics batsmen hand
cuffed and practically upset Giant in
fielders with scorching drives. OF course
this is partially explained by the fact
that the Mackmen are heavy hitters,
but this is not the only reason.
One of those commenting upon the Ath-
letics' terrific infield smashes, since the
worlds series, the other day, was Johnny
Dobbs, and the boy leader had ready
solution for the mystery gained from
personal observation of the Athletics
play.
According to Johnny, the Athletics, one
and all of them, are possessed of fac
ulty for catching battery signals which
is almost uncanny, and when they do
catch them, what is the result? Just this

sition, and this was considered the hole.
Mauck will fill this gap and should do
1t we'll
Mauck will hardly be. in condition to
play against Mercer on Saturday, but
should round to in time to take the trip
to Florida the following Saturday.
With the acquisition of Mauck the per-
manent lineup of the Jackets has been
just about settled, though, of course, the
other players on the varsity squad will
be kept there and used as subs through
out the entire season.
The first string lineup of the Jackets
i'll subsequent games, barring injuries.
will probably be as follows: Loeb, center;
Means, right guard; Lang, left guard;
Nance, right tackle; Mauek, left tackle;
Cushman or Hayes, right end Preas, left
end; Patten, quarter; Cook and Mcdonald,
halves, and Johnson, full.
E. and 4. Montague, Fielder, Smith,
Lucas, Reifsnider and Thomason will be
the backfield subs, with all of them sub
ends as well, Trawick, Alexander, Go
rec, Rainey, Rivias, Spence, Smeed and
Beard are the sub linemen. There are
also some others who are showing prom
ise whose names are not remembered at
this writing.
Coach Heisman put the Jackets to work
with avengeance yesterday afternoon. A
long signal drill and a still longer scrim-
mage was engaged in, This will be also
the programme for Thursday Friday
will be given ever entirely to signals.
Saturday the Mercer Baptists VIII play
the Jackets at Grant field, and there Is
sure to be a merry battle.
