Heinrich Schmidt, Famous East,
ern Amateur, Has His Own Sc
lection with Jerome Trav-
ers at Head.

Two interesting foursomes, with
Heinrich schmidt and Jack Neville as
principals, were played at San Fran
cisco on February 49, In the morn
ing Neville and Vincent won from
Schmidt and George Nickel by four
and three, and after lunch Schmidt and
Vincent defeated Neville and Nickel
by three and one.
Neville made seyenty-fye In the
morning and schmidt a seyenty-eight
but neither Of them did anything
startling in the second match. The
california champion was erratic both
on the greens and from the tees, and
schmidt threw away plenty of oppor-
tunities by his failure TO get up in his
approach puts The match was played
under par going out in the afternoon,
but the card from the turning point
will not bear the light Of day.
On the eleventh, Neville, Schmidt
and Nickel put three balls each out of
bounds, and Vincent, who was in the
bunker with his tee shot and took
three TO barely clear the cop. halved
the hole in seven. The last named
player practically won the match on his
own coming in, as he came to the front
in the last few holes when Schmidt
was in trouble. Schmidt left the same
night for Santa Barbara, where he will
remain until he leaves for England to
play in the British amateur champion
ship.

Running Speculation on What
May Happen in Inter Island
Bah Series Now Closing.
To Be Plared.

Tomorrow. p. m.--Punahou VS.. All
Service.
Saturday, p. In.--Oahn VS.. Asahi.
Sunday, 3 p. ms--All-seyvice VS. Oahu
An agrcemtnt was reached yesterday
afternoon between tine managers and
captains Of the Punahou and All-ser.
vice ball teams to play their game,
which was scheduled for Saturday, TO.
morrow afternoon az Athletic Park, be.
ginning at three clock.
In this manner the game scheduled
for Sunday between the Oahu and
Asahi mines may be played on Saturday
and the game which was scheduled to
be played on March 22 may be played
neat Sunday. This means that all the
games scheduled for the Inter.Island
series, which opened the recent Mid
Pacific Carnival on February IA last,
will lie played and that the series will
be shortened in time by whole week.
The Athletic Park people are anxious
to begin with the improvements which
will entirely remodel the downtown ball
park and in this wise they will be given
an additional week, which in the long
run allows them considerable Ieeway In
the matter Of having the grounds in
shape for the regular 1914 season Of
the Oahu League.
Who will get The Advertiser Cup,
which is 10 be offered to the winner
Of this most Interesting and successful
lnter-lsland series, is q question which
should be decided the coming Sunday.
But three games remain TO be played
and as the teams stand now the All
Service and Oahu mines are tied for
first place, with the Asahis next. 1T
would appear that the fight is between
the first two mentioned, but, of course,
there Is never telling what might or
might not happen.
Should the Punahous beat the All
Service tomorrow and the 'Asahis de-
feat the Oahus on Saturday, and
stranger things have happened IN this
uncertain world Of baseball. then the
winner of the All-Service and Oahu
game on Sundayiwill tie with the Asa.
bis for first place--four games won and
one lost, the other OF the leading trio
rating three won and two lost.
This is all mere conjecture, Of course.
And again, should the All-Serviee win
tomorrow and the oahus on Saturday
then the championship will be decided
once and for all time on Sunday be-
tween these two teams in favor % one
or the other, provided, however, that
no tie game results then. 1t would not
be the first time q tie game has re-
suited, either. The possibilities are
many, but what the Athletic Park PEG.
pie want Is that they may begin their
improvements next Monday.
And The Advertiser Cupi Well, The
Advertiser Cup is on exhibition at
yieira 4 Company's, Hotel street, after
having visited Maui and Hawaii, and
T. Il is ready TO be handed over to the
team which will win it.

Drew ''I have had a hard time de-

hard to learn the proper way to carry
my arms, TO breathe, and to maintain

Drew is considered in class by
himself in getting away from the holes
on the start. This wonderful knack
combined, with an easy, smooth seven

driving finish, have made him cham
pion. No doubt before. the season is
