Among the many important matters
which will be exhaustively discussed
at the Olympic congress in Lausanne,
Switzerland, during the conference of
the international Olympic committee
this month aAd which will attract rep-
resentatives of the worldwide athlet-
ic movement from all parts of the
globe, it is promised that none will be
|of greater interest than that which re-
wolves about the question of compre-
hensive amateur definition.
Decided filings which had no real
foundation of fact have been taken at
American athletes generally because
of the recently announced detection of
Jim Thorpe, who confessed having
played baseball for money three years
ago, which fact, had it become known
in time, would have relieved the Amer
lean Olympic committee of the SEEM
ing stigma which it had to acknowl
edge, as he would have been declared
ineligible, and America would not have
been accused of having played pro-
fessional.
The absolute necessity for just such
action as is to be taken by the interna-
tional Olympic committee, viz, the
framing of an amateur definition
which will be comprehensive enough
to be acceptable to the athletic organ
izations of the world, was shown in
the varied codes drawn by the Swedes
for the several sports held under
their auspices last year.
Under the general regulations for
gymnastics in the Stockholm contests
it was interpreted that 'gymnastic
teachers and leaders, even though
they receive pay as such, ase regarded
as amateurs. Again, in the rowing
it was stated that "a professional is
one who as seaman, fisherman, or in
any other capacity, has in any way, I'm
the exercise of his calling, engaged in
rowing within two years from the date
of competition.
Such constructions as these, and the
announced intention of Gustav Lung
strom, a Swedish professional who
won a polo grounds Marathon and nu-
merous other races for money. to wait
two years, when he will again, accord
ing to his own statement, turn anna
teur,' make it obligatory for the COM
mittee to frame code which will be
as exhaustive as that which obtains in
the conditions of competition which
govern all those who desire 10 COM.

BALL SEASON ON.

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, Hawaii, May with nearly
1000 fans on hand, pre-game parade
and double-header, the baseball sea-
son opened Sunday in Hilo under
promising conditions, although the
playing OF the teams was not up to the
standard usually set by the local play
ers. Headed by the Hilo band, the Of
ficials of the league, the players of the
four teams marched from the armory
to the baseball grounds at Mooheau
park shortly after noon Sunday, 4
large crowd preceding and following
them. DIR. Colville, president of the
league, pitched the first ball of tue
season, and the national game was
once more means for enjoyment FOR
first games were a disappointment.
The opening game was between the
Hawaiis and the Hawaii Drug team.
On paper IL appears to have been a
good game, the score being four to
one and only three errors for each
team, but the game was in reality
SLOW and lifeless. In the first inning
there was some exhibition of baseball,
each team getting score and both
on hits, but after this it subsidized into
a mechanical affair with the drug
store team appearing after the second
inning to think the game was beyond
redemption, because their opponents
had two runs lead.
When another run was secured in
the fifth by the Hawaiis, the game
slumped and interest began to wane.
This ended the tallying on either side,
the Hawaiis letting up steam and even
their se-stealing. which had been
good up to this time, was allowed to
go by default, they seeming satisfied
with the scores they had bagged.
The second game, between the c. A.
C.'s and the j. A. C.'s, was an exhibit
ton of the Chinese slamming the ball
all over the diamond with the little
Japanese fielders running helter-skel-
ter in search of it. The winners trot-
ted home in droves, in the third inn
ing, six coming in for scores. With
the homecoming during the other inn
ings they got total of fourteen. while
the Japanese only got four. The sec
ond game was as fudicrously fast as
the first was tiresomely slow, with
neither good game.

JOHNNY WILLIAMS
LEADINGLEAGUE

Johnny Williams is leading the Pa
cific Coast League, with four games
won and none lost The Honolulu
twirler is attracting a lot of atten-
tion from the sport scribes and the
fans.
The San Francisco Chronicle of
April 20 says:
Attention must be called to Will
liams, the pitcher from Honolulu. He
has won four straight games for the
Wolves, and has been doing some
high-class relief work. Williams was
not much last season, but under Har
ny Wolverton, has been doing some
great piching.. Bill Tozer of Los An
geles is tied with Williams for the
lead Raleigh, Parkin, Stewart and
McCorry have not lost game so far
this season.
Cack Henley is at least in the run

lC0AST DEFENSE TEAM
WILL TRY OUT SOME
NEW TWIRLERS SUNDAY

Especial Star-Bulletin Correspondence]
FORT RUGER, May 6.-The baseball
fans OF the coast Defense Of Oahu are
disappointed, but not discouraged at
the showing made by the artillery
team in its debut into the Oahu
league. Lieutenant Clark still thinks
that he has the aggregation that will
carry off the bunting at the end of
the season. The team as yet is a
bit unsteady, but will settle down in
a few more games. Next Sunday he
will work Randall, the 10th company
finger, with Smith in reserve, and
says his team will be returned the
winner. Practice is being held daily,
and when the season is fairly under
way it is hoped that the artillery team
will be well up in the running.
