The football season at Punahou be-
gan yesterday afternoon when A.
promising huskies spent a couple OF
hours on Alexander field, kicking the
pigskin and learning few of the fun
damental points regarding the game.
At a meeting held last Thursday
morning il was decided to start prac-
tise early and get the team into shape
as soon as possible. Enthusiasm is
high at Punahou this year and, in
spite of the loss of several old stars,
such as Harry Baldwin, Bill Inman,
George McInerny, Jimmy Hind, "Dea-
con" Bond, Allan Renton and Johnny
O'Dowda, the team is eager for a
stiff schedule.
1t is planned to try different sys-
TEN of training this year than any
other previously used at Punahou.
The scheme is but an experiment and
the old order may be resumed before
the season is far along. Last year il
seemed that the team did not show as
mucH pep in the games as their quality
of practice and scrimmage promised
The coach believed that this was due
to entertaining and he has therefore
decided to have practise. but three

season his work has been equally bril-.
