The SATURDAY football games were
big surprises to local fans. At the
KAN field the unexpected was In the
nature Of o crushing defeat for the
Mills eleven az the hands OF the heavy
Kamehauleha aggregation. Score $50.
At Alexander field Mckinley decisive
" defeated Punahon: score GO.
II was hardly hoped by Mills sup
pcrters that they would defeat Kane
hameha. but Il was expected that the
team might work certain complicated
and deceptive plays to great advan-
tage against Kam's stolid warriors.
This, however. was not the ease.
Rams defense Is very heavy, and
what Is much more noteworthy II Is
very fast In charging Mills light
line was crumpled when they had the
ball, and when they were on the de-
Tense they proved far too light for the
fast. heavy Kan team.
Kan succeeded IN so thoroughly dis
placing Mills defense that the blue
and white was soon romping up and
down the field. Kan worked several
clean forward passes. Lieut. Booth.
who Is coaching Kamehameha, has
turned out very powerful and uni
fed team that viii doubtless make an
exceedingly strong bid for the inter-
scholastic championship.
It is greatly to the credit Of the
Hight Mills eleven that they played
sterling ball. giving everything they
had IN them throughout the entire
game. They were handicapped by the
loss Of men who sustained injuries
In the high school game last week.
The game at Alexander field was
largely q tale OF an oyeroonfident and
slow line. The entire Punahou team
seemed to lack drive and punch. They
would not fight, regardless of McKin-
ley's hard playing. until they were
forced to their own goal line or until
after Mckinley had scored.
Twice the Punahou eleven showed
the right spirit when. on their one
foot line. they held the black and
4 gold to downs and took the ball. But.
though these stands show the posi-.
htlities Of the team. they also reveal
that the team was hopeIessly slow
and dull at al other times.
The black and gold eleven, on the
other hand. played as hard BAH as one
could wish to see. At times their
hard play was carried too far, and
they were not infrequently pena1ized
for holding. tripping. etc, but the
lighting spirit Of the team was what
won the game for them.
