G. Company, I'd Infantry, entertain.
ed with q smoker Saturday evening
and had as their guests about 800 men
Of the other companies OF the garTi-
son. G. Company's smokers are al
ways popular and this one was espe-
cialiy successful, both from the am.
usement and Chow standpoint. At
O'Clock the crowd gathered in the.
large mess hall In the company bar
racks and were seated at long tables
around the sides of the room. The
central space was left open for the
athletic events that took place after a
delicious supper was served. The pro-
gram was q dandy, and consisted
mainly Of three-round bouts and buck
and wing dances Music was furnished
by the Honolulu string orchestra and
the evenings sport opened with a fast
bout between Honnagel and Greens
weight, both good pugs OF G Company.
After three fast rouncs ii was called
draw, much to the delight Of the.
sidelines. Martin Of G. Company and
McAnnis of III Company were next and
caused the enthusiastic audience more
than once TO rise from their seats.
Other bouts followed fast. Scott OF
* Company and clonenger of G Com.
.pany fought to draw and the same
resulted when Sarzalo and Birch OF
Company g finished their fast rounds.
The main event of the evening, how
ever, was not until Shuman Of H Com
pauy took on SuelfloW of K Company.
This was exceptionally good and they
put up clever, fast, clean scrap. At
some future time the draw which was
given by q popular vote, win be de-
cided at another G Company smoker.
After a clever buck and wing dance
by Miller Of G Company, who shook
his feet to the tune of Rhodes violin.
the evening ended and the enthusiasts
tic guests departed, all hoping that
repetition Of the enjoyable evening
would occur soon again. FL

After several postponements the Of.
fIcers from Honolulu and those from
Schofield Barracks played off their
long-standing ball game on Saturday
Afternoon on the Fort Kamehameha
diamond. Although 1t was thought
that the Schofield team would have a
cinch on the game, the Honolulu off
GERS gave them q surprise and won by |
a score OF 4 to 2. The game was well !
played and the large crowd that turn.
ed out was very enthusiastic. especial-
~ when Capt Anderson drove out a |
home run and Lieut.. Tepin made him
self famous by his great one-hand
catch. Schofield has recently been
strengthened by Riley, Gonser and |
Schneider, three star players from tie
military academy, so no doubt when |
the next game is played it viii be a
different story.
The following was the score and |
