Harold Castles
New Polo, Hound
Is Rare Animal

Oahu polo and tennis players and
.bowlers, who made sporting pilgrim
age to Maui last Saturday and Sunday,
are still talking of the general good
time that was provided by the inter-
island competitions, and the get-to-
gether parties that followed them. The
Valley Islanders outdid themselves in
showing hospitality to the visitors and
everyone who made the trip was the
house-guest OF ore Or other OF the
Maui sportsmen.
Frank F. Baldwin threw open his
commodious meme on the hill and en-
tertained no less than eight OF the
polo and tennis men. Among others
who acted as hosts were c. G. Camp
bell and William Searby of Puunene,
the latter entertaining the entire Oahu
delegation at his beach home Sunday
at a swimming party and buffet lunch
con.
Besides pleasant Tecollections, sew
eral of the Oahu men brought back
more tangible souvenirs Of their visit.
Harold Castle, for enc. is the proud
pcssessor Of a CastiIlian polo hound
from the baldwin kennels. These
dogs are very rare. the breed being
first introduced by the king Of Spain,
who is a patrcn of polo and who NAM
ed the dogs after his faycrite sport,
and also because of their immense
size, the males in some instances
growing to almost the size CT small
pony Castles dog attracted great
deal of attention on the voyage back.
1t was necessary to sling the animal
over the side of the Manoa in much
the same way that the polo ponies
were taken aboard. This Is the only
polo hound ON Oahu and dog fanciers
are showing considerable interest in
the importation.

ed by the situation that has developed
as result of the war in Europe. Ear
ly in the season there was every rea-
son for the belief that 1914 would be
the greatest year in the history OF
competition. With the unexpected
conflict abroad International con-
tests OF all Kinds have been cancelled
and may not be resumed for months
or even years.
On this side of the Atlantic the
Americas Cup race is the most i'm
portant event to be cancelled, but 9th
er competitions will lose the foreign
entries that were expected. The anna
teur and open golf championships and
the national tennis tournament will be
without foreign entrants since even
the Davis cup teams now in this coun-
try will leave for home Immediately.
Abroad the Harmsworth motorboat
contest and the international aviation
races at Rheims are off as well as all
the various national championships OF
the European countries.
The result of the war from an ath-
letic and sporting standpoint may be
greater for Il is likely to upset events
scheduled for several years to come
The Sender boat races at Kiel in 1916
and the Olympic games at Berlin in
1916 are no longer assured fixtures.
Athletic authorities both in America
and abroad realize that if the present
war continues for an extended period

act as host to the Olympic teams. En-
tries from all the European countries
will be greatly curtailed If not aban.

sary to postpone the games or trans,

In commenting on this angle of the
present unsettled state of affairs ath-I
letic James E. Sullivan, secretary of
the American Olympic Committee,
said:

ahead to attempt TO predict the effect
of the. war abroad on the Olympic
