IL ~ has been invented from time
N to time, but it has remained
for Jack Tar, the American
sailor, to develop something
for which, in the matter of sheer risk of
luck, there are mighty few equals.
1t sounds simple. Tie game is called

pool on land. The proposition is to play
pool while the battleship is on a cruise.
Unlike the elaborate arrangements on
board liners. the sailors pool table on a

storm, with the easy abandon of a Jug
gler.
When the proposition to put pool tables
on board battleships was suggested sew
eral years ago. there was cry Of pro-
test against It, Men maintained that the
thing was impossible, that it represented
simply an inordinate expense for new
pool balls and the like. and that the
sailor would not be able to enjoy it. Inis
has been proven to be false. The sailor
on board ship gets as much enjoyment
out of his pool game as he does out OF
his meals or his shore leave. And some
of the sailors have been trained on snip
until they are astonishingly adroit.

Of this game it is necessary to imagine

JUDGE COOPER
MENTIONED AS

from Bench Will Be Followed
by New Appointment

That Judge Henry f. Cooper, who
resigned at Washington last week
from his position as Judge of the first

return to Honolulu as territorial. sec

gist Of rumor current in political
circles today. The rumor, it is said,
however, is based on nothing more
tangible than speculation, which in
turn is predicated on the fact that the
resignation was fled at the national
capital, indicating a sudden decision
and as not decided on before his de-
|parture from Hawaii
The circumstances surrounding the
affair seem to lend support to this In

Cooper. says he had no idea the Judge

pleasure and private business com.
bined. The news of the resignation
came when he had been at Washing
ton just about long enough to hold a
conference with the gubernatorial ap-
pointee.
OF course. it is known that the
Judge is a stalwart Republican. but
offsetting that is the fact that he is
thoroughly conversan with insular af-
fairs, having been here many years
and public official virtually ever
since Hawaii became republic. His
knowledge of the secretary's Office
would be of inestimable advantage to
the new chief executive. for kaInaa.
