prom Thursday Advertiser
What would have been the best foot
bali game in the second team series
WAS spoiled by the heavy rains, and
after waliowing around in the mud for
an hour, yesterday afternoon the crack
Punahou reserves went down 90 their
first defeat of the season before the
cadet seconds from Kamehameha The
game took place on the KAN field,
which has recently been repaired in
spots anu al the close OF the afternoon
IL Is safe bet that there was not a.
much soil there as there bad been be-
ioie the game for great deal Of real
estate WAS carried back 10 FunahOu.
Although this victory cannot be count
ed az a real test OF the strength Of the
opposing players. the KAN boys have
every reason 10 feel elated over their
tuceess Tor they trimmed the collegians
TO the tune OF u to o.
Superior Weight Told.
IN a battle OF this kind, the superior
weight OF the cadets had naturally a
great deal TO do with the results, while
inc extra speed Of the Punahou back-
field WAS OF no avail on the sloppy,
slippery field. IL can hardly be said OF
any man that be played the best game
Tor as far as the watersoaked ground
would permit, every man on both teams
did good work. IL WAS a curious fact
that although it was Kams who won,
the bail was for the most of the time
m their territory IN the possession OF
their opponents. However, when tn
leather was in their possession, their
backfeld showed up exceedingly well
and they often made their yardag,
through the Punahou line
Although somewhat disappointed al
the rather poor showing made yester
day afternoon, the weareTs of tn,
"BuG aud Blue" lay their defeat 1,
the weather aud poor condition of th'
field, and TO a man they have ever,
hope OF retrieving their lost fortune
neat time.
his is how the game ran.
Punahou Wins Toss.

and chose to kick towards the xvi
goal. Mark Bertieman made a goo,
kick allowing Tor the slippery ball bu
Kan advanced almost 10 the middl
of the field. Right at first Punahou
left end Zane got through and did som,
neat taekling but on silent sigma
Awana made first down Tor the cadets
However the Rams were unable 10 opel
up enough aud they were forced 4
punt, and the pigskin went TO PunAhOl
on their twelve-yard line. Al first
when zap started out with seven
yard gam, IL looked as IL the Pun
would get the leather out Of their ter
ritory, but the Kams held them dow
for no gains and the bail change,
hands within twenty yards Of the Puns
goal line. Kams reeled of five of this
and on the next play Awana wen
over for a touch down.
The leather was slippery and th
goal kick went wild, the score stand

Mckinney made the kickoff for Ka
mehameha, and the kick was returne,
by Mott.Smith of PunahOu The pig
