At a recent meeting of the Healani

proposed that a new boat TO cost $3.50
he purchased by the organization. No
definite action was taken on the mat
ter, however, and it will be taken up
Mt the next meeting. The necessity
of practice among the members in
preparation for the annual A. A. u.
meet next month was discussed at
length by D. L. Conkling, who urged
the men to get out as often as pos
sible and get into trim for the event.
All members who are interested In
rowing have been requested to sign
up, and large list is already on hand
for additional applications for try
outs. The crews are now privileged
to use the boats on Mondays, Thurs
days and Fridays From the material
which has turned out for practice this
year, it is evident that the Healanis
will have a strong crew. There Is
now material for a number of crews,

Giles And Piszczek
To Fight On June N
Promoter SCharlin Announces
He Has 15-Round Match
Now All Settled

Holly Giles, the colored middle
weight, and PisZcZek, the soldier
pugilist who has shown in his local
mills that he is handy with his mitts
and 4 mighty hard man to hurt, are
settled upon for the main event of a
box-fest on the night of June IA at
Ye Liberty theater, according to
Promoter Jack Schariin.
Scharlin announced this morning
that his recent negotiations have
been successful and that the men
will shortly sign articles for a fiji
teen-round go.
Giles has been doing his training
lately by driving a hack, but as he
has nearly month in which TO get
ready, and as he is an old-timer at
the game, he ought to have no trouble
rounding to form. PisZcZek does not
train on soda-pop. as his name might
suggest, but on good solid food and
work, and he always looks fit for a
hard mill He is an awkward fighter
but can stand all kinds of punish
ment and is bear for keeping after
his man.
Scharlin says he will have a good
card framed up for the fight fans and
is confident the main event will
draw packed house. Giles has ap-
peared but once since his arrival. get
ting flfteen-round draw with Troop
er Bauersocks. In that fight Giles
complained his hands were bandaged
so tight they were useless and that
he couldn't make his punches carry
the kick Benny Jacobs, his thrifty
manager. says that he will put up
$500 on Giles to win, and if it's real
money, the dope will be that Giles
will be sent out to take the lead and
keep it.

FAST GROWING
POPULAR

NEW YORK.-The public is spend
ing nearly $1,O00,O0O a year to see
boxing contests in New York state.
According to a report of the state ath-
letic commission, published today, the
exact total of gate receipts at boxing
contests for the year ending Nov. 80.
1912, is $9S3,S26, out of which the
state has received 5 per cent COM

Since the athletic commission was
appointed in August, 1911, the grand
total of gate receipts has been ST.

Sport Second to Baseball.
Students of sporting statistics de-
clare the figures indicate that boxing
is second only to baseball in popular
ity in New York state. At the end of
the year for which the report is is
sued there were seventy-six boxing
clubs operating under the direction of
the commission. OF the total of
eighty-nine licenses granted since the
commission was organized. forty-nine
were to clubs operating in the me-
trOpolis.
May Take Over Wrestling.
New York was the first state to
establish commission with jurisdic-
ton over boxing, but several states
are following the example.
There is movement on foot here,
promoted by the New York Athletic
club. to place wrestling also under the
control of the commission, as it is be-
lieved it would mean the re-establish-
ment of the popularity of sport that
has become somewhat discredited.

kAMS and MILLS
PLAYING This
AFTERNOON

Two more games of the interschol-
astic baseball series have been held
up this week on account of rain. Yes.
terday afternoon Kamehameha was
to have met the Mills team on Kane
hameha field, and the High School
second team was to have played
postponed game with the Punahou
seconds on Alexander field. Both
games had to be called OF however,
owing to the heavy showers which
flooded 10th fields, making playing
impossible.
Both the postponed games are to
be played this afternoon. weather
permitting The second team contest
has been postponed twice now on
account of rain. The second team
series is creating quite as much In
terest as the first-team series, and
the mines are well supported by the
students. Both Punahou and the
High School have good start IN the
championship race and the teams are
evenly matched. The High seconds
have team which is for the HoSt
part good. The team stands as good
a chance as the Puns in winning the
game today The game is to be PLAYED
on Alexander Field, PunahOu, at half
past three o'clock.
Kan Field is to be the scene OF the
first team game between Kament.reha
and Mills. The game will In ali prob
ability go to the Kams, who have
lost but one game this season. Opu-
nui, the Kan captain. is sure of vic
tory for his team and there seems to
be very little show for Mills. Mills
has tried out three different piic
and each one would make a good
pitcher with practice. AS 1t Is. not
only do the three give many balls AMI
allow many hits. but they usually lest
about three or four innings. Kan
Noon, who twirled the greater part
OF the game against Punahou. is prob
ably the best of the trio. With more
practice he could fill the position very
capably.

ABE ATTELL
POPULAR Again

Il may appear strange, but many
really believe that Abe Attell, minus
the featherweight title, is more pop
when he held the featherweight cham
pionship.
When Attell was champion toe
much was expected of him, and be
cause he did not always deliver what
was expected OF him he was attacked
I'm the newspapers and his popularity
suffered His success was so uniform
that he was expected to furnish Q
knockout scene for spectators every
time he entered the ring, no matter
whom he fought-featherwe light
weight or even welterweight. Consid
Grafton was rarely given to the fact
that Attell had to go out of his class
oftener tina nhe remained in it to fight
he was expected to knock 'em cold
anyway. And he was stacked uI
against the toughest propositions thai
could be picked out for him.
Competent judges know that many
a-man escaped knockout at Abe At
tells hands simply because the little
champion would not risk breaking his
knuckles. His hands were and are his
chief asset, and he rarely risked Grip
ping them.
Public Realized II.
when he was finally conquered by
Kilbane sportdom began to realize
that too much had been expected OF
Abe, and a revulsion of feeling toward
him followed II was not pity, but
simply justice, and today Attell is
locked upon in different light thar
he was before he lost the decision to
Kilbane.
The former featherweight champion
sees no reason why anybody should
think that he is all in, as it was only
last year he put up some of the most
creditable battles in his long career oil
thirteen years ring warfare. After
making poor showing against Knock
out Brown he came to the coast and
lost his title to Johnny Kilbane in 9
twenty-round bout. i'm which little
damage was inflicted.

sleep, that they have to meet all kinds
OF teams and all kinds OF field condi-
lions and all kinds of umpires, the
brand of ball they are playing is all
the more remarkable.
Professional ball clubs are satisfied
to split even on their road games,
hoping to do the big winning on their
home grounds. The Chinese have
nothing but road games, and yet they
are maintaining an average of almost
800 per cent. That's going some.
Hats off to the team!

thusiast and in addition he's an Ober-

the chances are that he yelled for the

not long ago he was going to see the

BEST TWIRLERS
FROM THE EAST

Inspection of the pitching records
of the National League for the past
sixteen years develops the fact that
the leading strike-out artist has gen.
orally been a member of one of the
eastern clubs.
Only during four campaigns, from
1897 to 1912, inclusive, did west
ern team supply the pace-setter in
making men retreat to the bench af-
ter hitting nothing but atmosphere
Frank (Noodles) Hahn, of Cincinnati,
twice was the strike-out king of the
National League; "Rube" Waddell,
of Pittsburgh, once enjoyed this
honor and SO did Fred Beebe during
a campaign when he wore the liveries
of both the Chicago and st. Louis
clubs. Hahn's years of prosperity in
the strike-out line were 1899 and
1901; Waddell was the leader in 1900,
and Beebe ranked first during 1906,
which was the last year a western
er was in the king row.
New York Supplies Seven
The New York club has supplied
the strike-out king in seven of the
last sixteen years, Christy Mathew
son having been the leader during
seven campaigns; Richard Marquard
in one and ]. Bentley Seymour in
one. "Matty" hung up the high mark
in strike-outs for a season in 1903,
when he whitfield 267 of his adver-
saries. The previous best record was
249. made by Seymour in 1898.
The Phillies have twice furnished

annually to win the Chalmers car,
was the hero last year.
