On Saturday afternoon the second
and third games Of the interscholastic
baseball series were played amid the
greatest excitement and interest. The
game at Athletic Park, between Puma
hou and st. Louis. two OF the best
teams in the interscholastic league.
was won by Punahou after an ex-
tremely hard and exciting fight with
score of 5-4. Eleven innings OF
splendid playing were necessary to de-
eide the game. 1t was Bill Inman.
pitcher for Punahou. who. in the
eleventh frame, made the hit that
brought in Wadsworth for the winning
run of the game.
The second game. played at Kane
hameha, between Kamehameha and
the High School. was won by Kane
hameha with score Of 10. The
game, though fast one, was close a.
shown by the score, was not as good
as the one at Athletic Park. Kane
hameha's lone run, brought In by
Opunui, was due to an error OF the
HIGH Schools first baseman. Nc
Kinley had several chances to score.
but very poor judgment was shown In
base running, and opportunities were
passed which with better Judgment
would have gone for runs. Another
fault with the High School team was
its poor batting. But one hit was
made during the entire game. Both
teams we're rather weak on third;
each third baseman making three FL.
rors. The nine innings took Just one
hour and eighteen minutes.
Hams In Lead
The Kamehameha boys have started
the season with good record, win
ming both games they have played 50
far. Saturdays game was the first
for the High School, which Ii q partial
excuse for any, errors they made. Ka-
mehameha played much better than In
the first game, and it Is reasonable
to expect that the team will do still
better next time. The score for the
Observation-Disclosures game was as
follows:
r. H. E.
Kamehameha ...........1 "a
High School ............O Is
Bush, pitcher for Kamehameha.
School pitcher, walked none. Bush

Punahou Fast
The score of the Punahou-St. Louis
game was as follows:
R.H.E.
st. Louis ........... 8 5
At several cyucial points In the
Punahou-St. Louis game, errors were
made on both sides which brought the
score up.
Both teams played a splendid game,
but leaving aside the good work Of the
teams and taking up an individual
player, Bill Hitchcock, Punahou's
second baseman, played game which
was equalled by none. A wild throw
10 first in the first inning was the
only mark on an otherwise perfect
record. Other players on each team
played a no error game but the best
of them, even with that advantage
could not compare with Hitchcock OF
Punahou. Second base was never
better covered for Oahu College than
it was on Saturday.
Bill Inman was the only man who
IS entitled to hold light to Hitch
cock. Imam pitched an excellent
game, and was as strong when he
threw the last ball as when he threw
the first Hitchcock and Inman are
two Punahou players who deserve
special praise and consideration.
Punahou has two baseball stars in the
pair.
The good players, however, were
not all on the Punahou team. Nye,
center field, for St Louis, has the
best batting average of the game,
scoring four hits during the eleven
innings. Nye was the only man that
did much in the way of hits But for
him, Inman would have made much
better record. Dunn. pitcher for st.
Louis, played good game. only walk
ing two men. Towards the last, how
ever, he gave out. and the Punahou
men found him rather easy to hit
Until the seventh inning the game
vas 10 in favor of the Saints, In that
rame the Saints increased their lead
With two more runs. The Puns had :
he last of the seventh and it was IN
hat inning that they first ran away
