RACING WATERS
in HILO BAY ARE
CURBED AT LAST
Extension of 400 Feet on Big
Breakwater Is of Vast Ben
eft to Shipping

Especial Star Bulletin Correspondence
HILO, July 19-For years past
there have been people who were sup
posed to be well informed about Hilo
harbor conditions and also about all
the vagaries of the ocean currents
that rush into Kuhio Bay These peo-
pie always asserted that even with the
Hilo breakwater extended and COM
pleted, a strong back wash and under
tow would cause trouble at the Kuhio
Bay wharf The opinion Of these
prophets was very seldom questioned,
although many men held totally diff
ferent ideas. Now the proof OF the
contention of the latter class of Hilo
citizens is produced and already, with
the breakwater extended only 400 feet,
the undertow and back wash of the
swirling waters are eliminated.
1t has been proved that even the
very limited extension of the break.

ficient to divert the racing waters that
formerly swirled around the end of the
artificial reef and then raced along
the inside of the breakwater until the

to then create a very strong undertow
and cause damage from time to time.
The new addition of 400 feet has
caused wonderful change in the cur
rents, and it is now noticed that the
waves after rounding the new end take
a different direction altogether and do
not come pouring along the inside wall
Of the huge breakwater. The reason
for the change is that at point just
few hundred feet beyond the former
end of the breakwater a reef exists.
The water used to rush around the end
of the big barrier made by man and
then hit the reef. The water was then
thrown back and diverted so that it
swirled along the inner side of the
breakwater. The water now takes a
sweep beyond the reef and works its
way over toward Reeds Bay, where
no harm to the wharf can be done
The change in the currents was no.

on the breakwater extension reached

GUARDSMEN To
FIRE FOR N. R.
A. TROPHIES
Three Medals Will Be Put Up
For Competition at Shafter
Range Sunday

The crack shots of the National
Guard of Hawaii will be on the Shat
ter range next Sunday, competing for
the National Rife Association medal
Owing to the fact that there has been
no competition for the annual medal
since 1912, three trophies are on hand,
guardsmen making the three best
scores.
The course which will be fired in
cludes three ranges. as follows: zoo
yards, rapid fire, kneeling from stand
ing, 10 shots in minute and 10 sec
onds: 300 yards, slow fire. prone, tar
get A; 500 yards, slow fire, prone. tar
get b. In the record course, which
the guardsmen have fired this year,
the firing at the A target at 800 yards
has been from the seated and kneel-
ing positions, and the 200 yards rapid
fire has been limited to one minute.
The n. r. A. course is easier in these
particulars, and better scores should
be made than were turned in during
the record season.
The results of the shoot Sunday will
be watched with considerable inter
est, owing to the fact that the COMPETE
tive shooting for places on the team
that will go to the national shoot at
Jacksonville will be held during Aug
ust Sundays scores should give a
good line on probabilities for the trip.
Last Sunday was to have been the
last day of record firing for the 1st
Infantry, N G. H.. but owing to the
rain there was some uncertainty as
to whether the range would be opened
or not, and good many men SEIZED
nled to fire did not have the chance.
These men will have the use of two
targets next Sunday, and will fire the
record course while the other compe-
tition is in progress.

The critics are about right. The

20 to 8 was because they called a halt
to the agony at the end of the seventh
inning.
The Methodists showed UP on time
and had their entire team on the
floor as per schedule, but when time
was called the Central Uni;ns were
just three men short and they got
