COMMITTEES Of CARNIVAL EVENTS
OHOLD MEETINGS THIS EVENING

1t is expected that the coast team
will arrive in Honolulu on the Lur-
line February 10.
The problem of seating the public
will be taken up at the meeting this
evening, along with other matters
which demand immediate attention at
the hands of the committee. 1t is the
idea of the committee to have the
swimming events take place in the
harbor between piers / and of the
naval slip. Admiral G. B. T. Moore
was recently approached regarding
the use of the slip and, while he was
not in a position to grant a request
for it's use, wrote a letter to the
navy department in which he spoke
very favorably of the idea. 1t is be-
lieved that little difficulty will be ex-
perienced in securing the use of the
slip. Admiral Moore is doing all pos
sible to assist the committee. The
committee plans to erect bleachers on
both docks in order that all who at
tend the water carnival will have an
excellent view of the course.
The members of the Hui Au Kai,
a local girls swimming club, recently
communicated with the committee
with regard to bringing a champion
women swimmer from the coast to
Honolulu to compete in the ladies'
swimming races 1t was found, how
ever, that the finances of the carnival
would not permit of such an under
taking at this time, so the girls have
arranged a benefit dance which will
be held January "a, at which time
they expect to raise $3.50 with which
to bring the swimmer here. " + g. :
