headquarters, have been showed into
the background, to make way for the
allabsorbing sporting event now on
the cards-the ball game between the
clerical staff Of headquarters and that
of the quartermaster office. For the
challenge put out by the departmental
pen pushers has been snapped UP by
Major Cheatham assistants, and both
sides have gone into strict training
for the event.
What's happened up here?" asked
a staff officer this morning. THE
halls full of clerks, walking up and
down like a lot of those Kalakaua
avenue racers"
The explanation is that owing to
long hours and hard work, the ball
players must get their exercise and
training in the corridors. They are
well up in the rules, however, for to
people accustomed to keeping track
of the army regulations, the laws of
baseball are a mere joke, to be mem
orized in 10 minutes.
After perusing the Star Bulletin, the
@. NJ. office hereby accepts the de-

SERVICE TEAM
DOESN'T get
GOING IN TIME

The AIl-Chinese Won from the AL
Service team at Athletic park yester-
day afternoon, to l., but the game
wasn't nearly as close as the score
indicates. As an exhibition OF base
ball it was disappointment, the SOL
der team lacking snap, while the
game was long drawn-out and took an
intermiHable time to play.
An uHfortunte part OF the after
moons exhibition was the lack Of
discipline on the field. Umpire "Bil"
Desha had an on day on his calls and
the crowd got after him, so that by
the second inning every call right or.
wrong, brought forth a howl. The
players took their cue from the.
crowd, and Desha let them get away.

glove on the ground and went.

tpeeye" he should have been benched
outright. lawson is a. classy pitcher
when 1t comes to actually delivering
the ball to the batter. but as a field
er, batter, and runner he's a joke, and
II he would conduct himself with a.
little more modesty on the diamond,
the fans would appreciate it. Lawson
wastes more time than any other
two pitchers on Oahu put together,
and the crab act doesn't go we'll.
The Chinese got the jump on the
soldiers in the first frame. En- Sue

have speared easily, Lawson having
the preferred chance to field Il, i

chinese WON'T
PLAY IN JAPAN;
GOING TOCUBA

The All-Chinese will not make that
trip to Japan this spring. A cable
from Nat c. Strong, the New York
booking agent of the team, put an
end to all thought of an invasion OF
the Orient by stating that the
Chinese were expected to start their
mainland campaign March IL, and
that the early games could not be cut
out without putting the team in a
Questionable position. At least this
is the view taken by Manager Sam
Hop and the players themselves.
However, there is foreign tour in
store for the local boys, as Strongis
cable states that the team will go to
Havana in September This is in line
with ilItimations made when the
Chinese returned home last fail, but
this is the first official word that has
reached here. .9.... III
T. Strong's cable, which arrived Sat
urd&y afternoon, and which was in
reply to one sent by Sam Hop ask
ing If the mainland schedule could
be. deferred, was as follows:
Impossible. Contracts all signed
open March IL. Play Havana, Cuba,
September" X
According to present plans the
team will leave here March 8. The
players have not as yet received the
schedule, and do not know what
teams Strong has stacked them up
against for the first few weeks There
viii be some changes in the person
mel of the team for the coming trip.
A. Robinson, an older brother Of Eos.
ter, and a crack pitcher. has come
down from Maui to try out with the
Chinese. Aki and possibly one other.
player of the Chinese Juniors will be.
given chance to try out, and may
be seen in one of the Sunday or Sat
urday games. 1t is now probable
that En- Sue will be able to make
the trip, but this is not certain. Ping
Kong will probably go along, although
he has been on the bench for the
past few games due to the fact that
his hitting has been practically nil.
1t is doubtful whether Sing Hung will
be taken along this year.
Now that the Chinese have passed
up the Japan trip, it is quite likely
that some other Honolulu team will
be picked for the journey. japanese

GOLF GOSSIP

Since Mr.. Ouimet flashed like a me-
teor into the golfing armament the
most talked of man has been George
Duncan, the brilliant professional Of
Hanger Hill. Therefore it can not
fail to be of interest to the public to
have an opportunity Of reading what
he has to say about the game for
women. Golf illustrated has given us
this opportunity:
That golf is being taken much more
seriously by women than was the case
few years ago, is shown clearly by
the ever-increasing number Of women
golfers land by the marked all-round
improvement in their play. Some
hints, then, from one who has made
special study of the game from
the woman's point of view, as to how
to avoid the chief faults which hinder
the progress to the scratch mark Of
the ambitious player, may be wei
come.
1t would be useless to deny the
fact that the average woman must al
ways be at a disadvantage in the
game of golf when compared with the
average man. She must necessarily
be inferior at golf, as at other out
door sports. by reason of her slighter
physique. This can not be disputed,
but believe that the difference in
the standard of the two sexes at the
present time is wider than caa be ac-
counted for by this natural disadvan-
tage.
Womans limited success at the
present time is undoubtedly largely
due to the fact that she has not yet
mastered the art of holding her clubs
properly. This is the weakest spot in
the women's game, even among first
class players who are on or near the
scratch mark, and who have distin-.
guished themselves in the various
championship events. There is hard
ly a single player above criticism in
this respect, though Miss Mabel Har-
rison, in my opinion, comes nearest to
the desired goal. When women have
conquered this weakness, men play
ers of the same standard will find it
as much as they can do to concede
third, instead of the half that is. at
present customary. 4
Il have often been asked what is the,
ideal age at which d girl should take
up golf, and think it should be when
she is about IA. It is undoubtedly
possible for quite small children to
acquire a correct swing and to drive.
a surprising distancei in proportion to
their height and weight:s hut mp to-
the age of IA the game for them can
hardly be regarded as more. than
amusement and good exercise in the
open air. - n
AT that age, especially if other ball
games like hockey, croquet;S lacrosse,
OF lawn, tennis have been played, a
girl will have developed enough
and to carry out the instructions of
a professional teacher Very rapid
progress is often made by young girls
with a natural turn for, hand-and-eye
games. and it is interesting to note
that Miss Cecil Leitch made her first
at the open champion
ship meeting, and reached the semi.
final round, when it was held at ST.
Andrews in 1908. She was then only
II. Miss B. May was a year younger
when she took Mrs. Cautley to the
18th hole In the semi final round of
the English championship at Princes,
in 1912. She had previously defeated
Miss May Leitch in the second and
Miss Stella Temple in the third round

young girl.

The boys of the Punahou Prepare.
tory are planning to have an inter
grade track meet some time In Febru-

Howard johnson, Roy Graham, and
John Fassoth are the chief instiga-
tors of this new idea, and through Ii
they hope to get greater number OF
the smaller boys into the sports, as
we'll as the older members OF the
grammar schools. ~
Try-out races have been held pre-
Viously for the purpose of finding out
who's who, and little interest has been
shown for the past few years. The
Punahou Prep Athletic Association
stands well financially this season, so
the leaders Of that organization have
promised to give prizes to the win
ners and have everything in ship
shape order Every boy from the
smallest in the school to those who
have reached the age limit. will have
an equal chance. for there will be
numerous GLASSES which VIII divide
the runners and jumpers according to.
their size and weight. The lower
grades will compete against their
equals, while the upper graders will
have their special contest.
The same plan Of making more OF
the school competition by having In.
tergrade races and games is to be
followed in all the sports of the Prep.
and Principal Fits believes that the
new plans viii aid materially in de

The girls Of that school have al
ready started their basket ball games.
and under the supervision Of Mrs.
Agnes P. Driver games are played
every Wednesday and Friday. There
are two teams, the Bluffs and the
Blues and already they have played
two practice games, the latter winning
the first by score of 10 to Is. The

Five years ago the girls Of the pre-
paratory gave silk banner on which
was to be inscribed the winners Of
the yearly basket ball series every
year. Both the Bluffs and the Blues
have won twice, and 1t will be de-
cided this year who will win the
banner for good Soon the regular
games will be played and in about
three out of FIVE games It will be de-
