c. G. BOCKlJS HAS
Plan FORLAR
AMUSEMENT PIER
Asks Harbor Board for Permit
to Build Into Breakers Near
the Moana Hotel

C. G. BocIZus asked the harbor COM
mission this morning for permission
to build a board walk 500 feet long
from a point just Waikiki of the Moa-
ma Hotel out directly into the break
ers, where he proposes erecting a
great amusement pier similar to those
of the big summer beach resorts on
the mainland.
Bockus' plan, which he explained at
length to the commission, showing
elaborate drawings of the project, re-
sembles to a large extent that Of H.
L. Kerr, which was submitted to the
Promotion Committee recently. The
one big difference, he said, Is that his
is strictly private enterprise, to be
financed by himself and his hackers,
no assistance being sought from any
governmental or other public body
save the permission to build it.
Starting from a point quite close to
the Moana Hotels board walk Bockus'
pier would extend out at an anglo
more directly toward Diamond Head.
to point where there is an abun-
dance of deep water. At the end he
would construct a great frame build
ing, two or three stories high. having
roof garden, dancing pavilion and
refreshment parlor on the main floor,
with bath and dressing rooms under
meath. From the latter the pleasure
seekers could walk directly out to the
waters edge on floating pontoons.
fixed on all sides of the edifice
The building would be so far out
from shore, he said. that II would be
in. the midst of the big waves In
which the surf-riders disport. and Wis
itors would be able to witness this
sport at close hand. He did not make
an estimate of the enterprises prob
able cost, but declared he stood ready
to make the financial venture.
His request for the privilege oi
building the board walk was referred
to Chairman Forbes for further Id.

legislation on the subject.
The California anti-alien laws. he
pointed out, specifically provide they

Discussing the Arizona anti-alien

Service Hat to Be Worn by

-... In Future

officers and men of the army sta
toned in Hawaii can wrap up their
smart olive drab service caps, and put
them in the bottom of Their lockers,
for they will have no further use for
them for the time being. The cap has
been abolished as part of the uni
form from Hawaii, and from now on
the service hat will be worn instead.
This change viii be received with
mixed feelings here. On the whole,
though. it is likely to be popular, es-
.peciallY with thS -enlisted men, and 1t
is generally Agreed that the hat is
more suitable for this climate, as pro-
yiding better protection from both
rain and sun. The hat is harder to
keep on in the wind, and officers and
men who go In for automobiles may
do little "cussing" on the side. The
hat strap is worn on the back Of the

Committee Believes Such an

Desires of Service

Army officers who are interested in
the organization of Service Club for
Honolulu, plans for which were out
lined in the Star-Bulletin a couple of
weeks ago, are working hard on the
project and are meeting with consid.
cradle success in their informal can
vass. The present plan is to have a
ladies' annex and this has proved a
popular move. especially with mar
ried officers living at Schofield Bar
racks.
Real estate agents are now going
-oyer their lists looking for suitable
home for the new club and the SprecK-
els place on Punahou street, the B. N.
Allen place on Alakea street and
suites of rooms in several downtown
buildings have been considered. It
would be preferable, say the organ
izers, to secure house with grounds
which could be improved and fitted up
for outdoor refreshments and enter

The officers Of Oahu who do not
belong to the University Club have no
place to go to change clothes, meet
their friends, entertain officers going
