longer club than is necessary TO nit
the distance.
The great thing to guard against
in rainy weather is being short. Re-
member that all those little rain
drops through which your ball is
flying have an effect on the ball and
hiring 1t down to earth quicker. An
other point to remember is to keep
your club as dry as possible. See
that your golf bag has a flap attached
to cover the heads when it is rain
ing.
Always carry a piece or chalk In
your golf coat to rub on your wooden
clubs faces. That will prevent them
becoming sodden, for If they are sod
den you viii lose great deal OF
length. always find II good thing
to pitch my ball in wet weather. In.
stead Of running it. A pitch is safer,
for this reason; a run-up shot may
strike an unseen wet patch Of grass
and stop short, or it may skid across
the wet surface and run too far.
Again, on the putting green, be cere-
full to see the peak of your cap does
not send a stream of rain drops down
just as you are hitting the putt. 1t
may not look pretty, but an effective
way to overcome this banking danger
is to put your cap on with the peak
at the back of your neck.

BALL IN
Big ISLAND
League

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, Hawaii, May 26.-After three
Sundays Of a very ordinary brand OF
the national game the Hilo fans were
treated to games yesterday that are
worthy of the name of baseball. A
summary of the game between the
Hawaiis and the Hawaii Drugs shows
little else than ciphers, excepting in
the first inning.
George Desha, first at bat, lifted one
that put him on first base, followed
by hit by Brickwood, which moved
him up peg. Then Easton, usually
a safe batter, died before he got to
first. Ed Desha and Teyes got bases,
and eventually runs with the two who
had preceded them. This ended the
scoring on either side and from this
time on it became pretty much of a
pitchers game.
Keoka was in the box for the Ha-
walls and Low for the druggists, and
each of them struck out ten men. Low
passed one man to first and one man
made first on bad throw off the Ha-
waii pitcher.
The error column shows up well
with the rest of the game summary,
there being only two credited to the
Hawaiis and three to the pestle play
ers. A two-base hit was the best in
the game.
Chinese on Top
The J.. A. c. and the G. A. c.
game also had some exciting periods.
for it was anybodys game until the
end, finishing with score of 2 to 1
in favor of the Chinese. From the
fifth to the ninth inning it was tied
score Brown for the G. A. C.'s had
in the fourth managed to annex tall
ly, but the Japanese returned the play
by Hayashi hooking one in the fifth.
And so it stood when they went to bat
for the final showdown. All Pang got
to first and with some crack base
stealing, backed up by hit, he

A new amateur baseball team, to be
known as the Punahou Athletic Club.
has been organized by A. L. Castle, to
play several local aggregations and
then go against the fast Stanford team
on its return from the Orient next
July. This new team is in reality the
College team. that has been playing
games here for the past month, with
the addition of Cyril Hoogs, Harry
baldwin, "Haole" Sumner, and Edge
comb. After the Interscholastic
League season ends, the team will get
BIZ Inman, the crack Punahou
pitcher, and probably "Scotty" Schu-
man, whose suspension by the A. A.
o. will expire July l. This team Will
make its initial appearance next FRI
day afternoon, when 1t will 60 up
against the Stars, the game being
scheduled for $3.50 at Athletic Park.
II was originally intended to play q
team composed Of former college men
and army officers against the Stan
ford nine, but II was pointed out that
Lieutenants Applin, Clark and O'Hara,
Who were counted on for this combi-
nation, were now full-fledged profess
SIGNALS. and that 1t would be impos-
sible to play them as members Of an
amateur team.
THE University Club members and
other college men who have been
boosting amateur ball here are mostly
former Punahou men, said A. L.
Castle this morning. I'VE feel that
We must give the school players every
protection, and If We should play with
professionals and then the school
players should play with us. the lat
ter would become pros. This is pref
~ fine reasoning, but we can't afford
to take chances.
There is so much interest in anna

league to play. Saturday games. There

LEAGUE IS THE s.
TALK JUST NOW

A new baseball league is ION the
fire" 1t is to be a military league,
with probably five teams in the race,
games to be played either Sunday
mornings or afternoons at Moiliili
grounds.
Fort Shafter, Camp Very. Fort De
Russy, the National Guard, and prob
ably Fort Ruger. are included in the
circuit, and at these army and marine
posts there is considerable interest
shown over the proposed league. A
meeting of those interested is to be
held at 7:30 next Friday evening, at
the offices of the Sanitary Steam
Laundry. Nigel Jackson, of that con-
Germ, is acting as promoter. to bring
the hackers of the several teams to-
gether.
On its face, the project looks good.
There is plenty of baseball material
at Shafter, where company games
have been in progress for some time
past, and the other posts all have
men who know the national game.
This league would naturally not in
clude any of the players who are
members of the Coast Defense team OF
the Oahu League, but there are lots OF
other players at the artillery posts
who are capable of putting up good
exhibition.
The idea is to charge nominal ad-
mission to games, and to give fans OF
the Waikiki district chance to see
good Sunday ball near home.
