Several members of the All-Austra-
Ian cricket team, that spent yester-
day in Honolulu while the Niagara was
in port, were so delighted with the city
that they expressed their intention of
making stop-over on the return trip,
and spending a week or so here before
returning to Kangarooland.

The Australian team will complete
its playing schedule in Canada and the

September, according t. Mayne, and
may be looked for here sometime in
October.

though this is really about the best
cricket combination that Australia can
get together We are carrying only
twelve players. and this doesn't leave
much margin for accident. so we can't
afford to get laid up. We are looking

tupity of getting a swim at Waikiki
Yesterday afternoon. and several of
them sampled the delights of surfing.

Probably no pitcher that ever
stepped into a box was deprived of a
harder-earned victory than Pitcher
George Suggs of the Cincinnati club,
in 1904, while pitching fer Jackson
vile, Fla., of the South Atlantic
League. Jacksonville was playing at
Savannah, Ca, and at the beginning
of the eighteenth inning, with the
score to 0. Robinson, catcher for
Jacksonville, hit for three bases Sam
LaRoque, who played on Palmer
o,Neil's famous Pittsburg team OF
1890, was playing first for Savannah,
and just as Robinson was approaching
FIRST base he called the umpire's at
tention to the fact that Robinson was
cutting first base, which he did by
about two feet.
The ball was thrown to first and he
was called cut. The next man hit to
first and was thrown out. The next
man struck out. Then George Suggs
came to the bat and made clean hit

touched first, would have won the
game right there. The next man struck
out.
Savannah was BANKED in the last
half of the eighteenth.

himself as honest ball player as ever

MAY Use DOCK
FOR SWIMMERS

A possible way out of the difficult
les which the A. A. u. officials are
facing in connection with finding a
venue for the annual swimming cham
pionships, seems now to be open. 1t
has been suggested that the Eva side
of the Alakea wharf be used Tor stag
ing the events, anu it is understood
that this plan meets with the appro-
val of Harbormaster Foster, and that
the board of harbor commissioners
will look favorably on request for
the use of this portion of the wharf.
Danger of fire is given by the COM
missiCners as the reason for their re-
fusal to allow the use of the entire
wharf on June IL, but it is pointed
out that if the spectators and contest
ants are confined To the uncovered
portion of the dock on the Eva side,
and if the wnari shed is kept locked,
that danger will lie practically nil.
At any rate, the tip is out that some
such arrangement will be made, and
there is little or no chance that the
A. A. u. officials VIII be seriously en-
barassed for lack OF place to hold
the annual event

Captain Cheape also expressed the
opinion that the British team stood
a very good chance. Captain Ritson's
leadership of the team depends on
the position in which he plays. If he
plays number three he will captain,
while If someone else PLAYS in that
position that player will command the

CEDARHURST, l.. THAT the
makeup of the American defending

the many shifts Oh the players from
day to day in the practice sessions on
Long Island 1t is not at all certain
that the team will face the English
challengers in the same order in
which the Meadow Brock club four
lined up in 1911 The latest possibili-
ty is that Devereux Milturn will go
up into the attacking line and that
Larry Waterbury will be played at
back. Waterbury has played at back
more often than Milburn has in one
of the forward positions. Milburn is
one of the most brilliant or Ameri-

sterling player at back in the last
two international matches has never
been surpassed.

bination with Whitney Is very sue
cessful at this style the pair inter-
changing with the greatest facility.
This fiexibility has been a notable
feature of the Meadow Brook four, es-
pecially when playing without the or
side rule, which condition now pre-
walls universally. This is shown by
the record of the last International
match in which every member of the
team took a hand in putting the hall
through. Whitney scored once,
Monte Waterbury once, Milburn three
times and Larry Waterbury five
times, making the ten goals the
American defenders scored two years
ago.
Whether Milburn will be more val
uatle with his great hitting in the
forward line, or as the last line OF de-
fence with his marvellous backhanders
is a question that will have to be
worked out in the next month OF
practice. 1t would seem that the
latter would be the case as with a
remarkably flexible team he can go
through az any opportunity to make
a run for goal, instead of being con-

ventlonal English style of short shots
