duke KAHANAMCKU AND THE Other
HAWAII Swimmers STARS OF MEET
San Francisco Papers Tell How Hawaiian Wonder Broke Exist
ing Coast Records at San francisco Was Not Pressed
in Any of His Races

The San Francisco papers which ar
rived by yesterdays mail are loud i'll
their praises OF the fine work done
by Duke Kahanamoku and the other
hawaii entries at the San Francisco
meet of July 1 and ). .. -.
Here is the Chronicles story of the
first day of the competition:
Record breaking, in which Duke IA
hanamOku. the World-famed swimmer
of the Hui Nalu of Honolulu, played II
conspicuous part, was the feature Of
the first two-day tourney for the Pa
cific coast swimming championships.
held yesterday afternoon at SutrO
baths before a crowd of nearly 6OOU
spectators. ..~... .
The meet itself was a record break
er, and followers of swimming on the
coast had not until yesterday wit
messed anything to compare with II
in the line of swimming competition.
The Hawaiian nobleman established
coast records in each of the three
events he entered and won them in a
style that demonstrated clearly his
wide reputation of being peer among
swimmers. ....- -.-.. h.. d..
He set up mark of Sal in the
nrst event of the day. the quarter that
is ten seconds better than any that
have ever been contested on the main,
land of the American Pacific coast.
for his performances of yesterday are
not as good as those he is credited
with in his own territory. Lincoln
Johnson formerly held the record of
5:51 in this event ~.
The Duke was never breasted in the
50-yard free-stroke, although Nixon
gave him the most competition and
showed a heap of speed. Kahanamo-
ku won the first heat in 0:24 1-5, the
fraction slower than his American rec
ord made in Hawaii last month. In
the finals he swan the distance in
0:24 %. The new record Is remark
able and will likely stand until such
Time as the Duke himself betters 1t in
these waters, as material at hand
would not indicate that the new rec
ord is In danger. ,.~.
His time of 2:29 in the 220-yard is
z 2-5 seconds better than the former
mark, held by Galley of the Olympic
Grub, and these two would seem to be
out of the reach of swimmers from

EIGHT CLUBS ARE il
AFTER WILLIAMS:
$4,000 MENTIONED

The Cincinnati Nationals are the
eighth Major League club To ask for
a chance to buy Johnny Williams
Harry WoIvprton received telegram
from Thomas OHara, their chief
scout. stating that he was on his way
west and wanted TO look the Homo
lulu boy over at Portland before the
Sacramento. club sold him =.
OHara was Wolyerton's. scout for
the New York Americans last year
and IL a good Judge of players Be
sides OIiara. Jim Mcclure. repre-
semting Detroit, will also look the
Honolulu boy over. while in Portland
He saw him pitch here last week. -.
There seems to be some mistake
about when Williams will leave Sac
ramentO if he is sold. If Johnny
Williams is sold to a Major League
Club he has to report to that club
before August 26, 1913. That is. the
ruling Of the National Commission.
At present a number of very good
deals are on and Manager Wolverton
will undoubtedly sell before long 1t
is expected that he will go for about
$4,000. WOlverton intends to
strengthen his team. to a great eX-
tent by the sale of Williams.
The Major League Club making
the best offer will undoubtedly re-
ceiye him. At least three tOpnotch
players will come to Sacramento be-
sides good cash consideration. .

PASSENGERS IN :.
SUNDAY Flight

Aviator Tom Gum, heralded as the
only Chinese aviator and captain of
the aviation corps of the infant re-
public, again demonstrated to Honolu-
lans that he is a birdman of no mean
ability, when yesterday afternoon, In a
free exhibition at Schofield Barracks,
in the presence of a crowd of more
than 1000 persons he not only made a
number of successful flights, but also
carried several passengers into the
air with him. .:.f -...= 49,. I
The morning was given over to a Sc
ries of trial flights in preparation for
the afternoon exhibition, and when, at
$3.50 O'Clock, the train from Honolulu
pulled up at the field with its hum
dreds of aviation fans, including a
goodly portion of Celestial population,
Gum was in readiness to make
amends for the unsuccessful try-Out OF
a week ago.. Besides those who came
by the afternoon train, the field was
lined with thousands who had either
came during the morning by motor, or
who had come on the morning train.
Shortly after the arrival of the last
detachment, Gum climbed into the
seat of his machine, tested his engine
and then swept down the field, rising
into the air to good height and cir
cling four times around the post. He
remained aloft twenty minutes show
ing perfect control of his machine by
dipping onto the parade ground a
number of times Upon his return to
the starting point, the wind began
blowing in gusts from the east. but
nevertheless Gum announced that he
was ready to take passenger aloft
with him.. ..... ...:.
The first passenger was man, and
after short flight, Miss Lillian
Gee was taken aboard. Gum took this
passenger down the field and back,
rising only a short distance from the
ground, as he seemed unwilling to
submit his passenger to the swirling
air currents of higher attitudes. Miss
Frances l.. Mckay. was then invited to
make an ascent. This trip was practi-
Cally the same as the second, except
that the aviator and his passenger
journeyed toward Cashier and back
During the trip one of the propeller
blades was Splintered by coming into
contact WITH SOllc uIlS6eH ODSIluC
and upon his return Gum announced
that the flights were over for the aft
ernoon, New prOpellers for Gums
machine will arrive from the Coast
Wednesday, and Gum has stated that
he will give another exhibition Thurs
day: -. .... H. -. .-
When asked of the trip, Miss Voeller
said: The only question that caused
me any concern was the one of learn
ing what to hold onto; and that was
at the start. Once We got off the
ground forgot all fear of falling and
enjoyed nothing but the. sensation OF
the cold, fresh wind blowing against
my face 1t was so smOOth-eyen the
noise of the engine was forgotten and
the feeling that one had conquered one
of the elements and all but overcome
one of natures great laws made me
forget that there was the slightest dam
ger of falling I'm glad to be the first
native to sail aloft, but | only wish
Mr.. Gum would take me up in his
dives. vOlplaning and all the latest SEN
sations in sky-vaudeville."

Stanford 9, Punahou A c. 2.

One very bad inning tossed off Sat
urday's game for the Punahou ANA
teurs, and gave tie Stanford collegi-
ans their first victory in Honolulu.
In this frame, the fourth, Bill lnman,
the husky Oahu college twirler, was
given an awful lacing, the Cardinals
pounding out six hits, which netted
a like number of runs. -. -. J..
fnman couldn't do anything but
groove them waist high on the out
side corner, and the Stanford batters
fell on these offerings with boots of
Joy. Scotty Schuman raved and tore
his hair, and broke his fingers Sig
mailing for 1nman to mix 'em up, but
that young gentleman just had an of
day, and couldn't stem the tide. FL
nally, when it was too late to make
any difference, Dunn, of St. Louis
college, was put in, and he managed
to finish the game without allowing a
hit, although a couple of errors and
pair of wild pitches let a run
across in the seventh. ..... .....
Hahn, a southpaw, worked for
Stanford, and pitched nice game.
To date he has shown up better than
either of the other cardinal twirlers,
having good control, and something
on the ball. -.
StaytOn and Joy umpired, and kept
the game going brIskly, and without
alterations. to the approval OF a
good-sized Saturday crowd. -.

The first game was full of excite
ment for the morning fans, and had it
not been for the costly errors of the
Japanese players, they might have
won the game. Miyahara pitched in
his usual style and famed seven of
his opponents without allowing a
pass. For the Portuguese team, Il new
twirler by the name of Perry, meas
uring nearly six feet, was tried out.
He proved to be quite an artist with
the hOrsehide sphere. and with the
good support given him by his team
mates, won his first victory in the
league. -.. ..... T.:
The second game of the day ended
with the Chinese doing as they pleas
ed, and scoring whenever they wanted
to. 1t was just a case OF hard luck
with the game little Asahis, and they
have their off -day, as do other ball
players. Only two runs were, scored
by the sons of Nippon in the first
inning, while the Chinese piled up a
total of thirteeni runs before the game
came to an end. j..
Arthur Wong was in the box for the
Chinese team, and he had no trouble
to win This is the first game that
Wong has pitched from start TO finish
On the other hand, Sueda of the Asa
his was wild. He permitted seven men
from the Chinese team to walk. -
Next Sunday, the games will take
place in the afternoon instead Of iii
the morning. Manager Henry Will
Hams stated that the league was in

league more than in having the games
played during the morning. ~
