hundreds of supporters, furnishing the
sporting program. 1t is going to be "a
real holiday for the scfoolfolks, both
cid and young, for instead of seeing
the schools in competition against
one another, the ;pedagoguet ana
school kids will Iori the first time IN
the history OF the Islands find all the
schools combined in an effort to wrest
laurels from the skiliful baseball art

The roofing ought to enliven tho
afternoon. From Punahou it is re-
ported that large contingent will be
led by Dean Timberiake the famous

part in the game on Saturday.
The Chinese will have strong
lineup, which is well-balanced frenl

that the team will play during the
week, Manager Kim Tong HO and
