the series with Albuquerque. He got
Joe Mathes by the big toe in that in

IN the error column after Joe's name
ana nOuched up an equal number Of
scores for the Dukes Those three
scores gave them the game, the
score being to 5.
Ray Kallio and Bob Irion were the
opposing pitchers and there was little
TO choose between them. But for the
errors in the 10th, the game might have
gone to a tie at dark, for both men
were going better in the latter stages
of the game than they were near the
start.
A pass. a sacrifice and a double gave
the Dukes a run in the opening inning.
They got another in the second on a
single, a steal and Raedel's triple. Dud-
dys error, followed by McNeifs single
and some daring work on the paths,
gave them the third run in the fourth.
In the sixth, a pass and a single were
followed by a double by Davis, netting
HacEmen Fiji Bases.
The Mackmen got their first acquain-
lance with the home plate in the third,
Pendleton's single, a hit batter and
pass filling the bases. Raedel trapped
kalliO off second and il then became
in an effort TO keep Kal>O on base. A
bad throw to the plate by Irion gave
the opening for the score There was
dispute as to whether Johnny had
touched the home plate. From the
press box, it looked as though he had
missed IL by three feet but Kane called
him safe. Anyway. Bauer drew a pass
and a run would have been forced,
had it not been for the play on kallio.
Three Runs for FL PasO.

Richie and White May Meet In Fall

EHWAUKEE. Wis, June 30
Nj kid" Williams, the bantam
L 4 weight champion, has the Sam
Langford idea about making matches.
or perhaps it might be better to say
the Kids" manager. Sammy Harris.
Williams met Louisiana in Philadelphia
and the latter was credited with hav-
ing whipped the kid They met again
recently and the kid" turned the
tables. Then came Jimmy Murray with
a claim of beating the kid" in Phila-
delphia in a short bout They were
matched again at Baltimore and this
time Mr.. Williams made no bones about
it, but took the decision in a ten round
match.
Richie Is Laying Off.
The proposed meeting between Willie
Richie and Charlie White Of Chicago,
which had been talked Of for July 4,
will have to be put over until fall.
v lille was willing to make the match
for Milwaukee. but finally decided that
he would not take a chance with the
weather in midsummer. claiming that
II would interfere with his training nd
ne wants to be in perfect condition
when he tackles White again. Richie
remembers the terrific battle he had
with White before the Auditorium
club, in Milwaukee a little over a year
ago. when he struck the hottest day
of the year and he prefers to get away
from the warm spellif possible.
II viii be better for me TO Law off
during the hot spell" said Willie while
discussing the matter here, and then

days with my folks in oregon and then

and also a very poor showing at other
times He seems to have the ability all
right, but like many boxers at the start,
does not have the greatest confidence
IN himself He outboxed Al Palzer and
carl Norris completely until he be-
came careless and lost his noodle.
AIandOt Lacks Final Punch.
Joe Mandot, the southern lightweight
IS one Of those boxers who appear to
nave everything that champion
should have, but lacks some point that
prevents him from anneXing the title.
Joe has put up some splendid battles
against the best Of the lightweight
crop, but when il came to the final
show Joe did not have the punch that
wins. He put up . great battle re-
phis and with Red Watson at Superior,
but he did not seem able to deliver the
punch that would spell sleep. His
work against Joe AzeVedo at New Or
leans was all that could be asked of
him and now he is pulling for another
meeting with Freddy Welsh over the
marathon route

HAWAII ruined
Temples MAY BE
RESTORED SOON
C.. R. Forbes Will Investigate;
Says Ancient HeiauS Should
Be Saved From Oblivion

Restoration of ancient Hawaiian
heiaus or sacred temples will be one
Of the things that will come under the
consideration of Charles R. Forbes,
superintendent of public works, who
leaves this afternoon on the Matsonia
for Maui and Hawaii. Superintendent
Forbes will make rather a hasty tour,
and his time will be filled to the limit.
Mr.. Forbes believes that part OF
the public works of the territory
should be the restoration of the an
cient heiaus, which formerly existed in
large numbers throughout the islands,
and remains of which are still found,
on the Big Island especially. He will
make a careful study Of kuhio wharf,
the Hamakua road, Keeaumoku road,
and Chin Chuck road. HOnuapO wharf,
which lies at the southern part of Ha-
waii and which is said to be one of the
toughest landings that the lnter-lsland
boats have to make, will be inspected
The prospects for a new wharf at kai-
lua on the Kona side will also be con
sidered during the trip.
Mr.. Forbes will leave HilO on Mon
day afternoon, taking the Mauna kea
to Maui, where he has considerable
work to do for the government
