Saturday night in the Games Hall
of the Y Nj. C.. A. the Kauluwela jul
nior indoor baseball team retained
their title as champions by defeating
the fast Palama team to 3.
There were three distinct features
of the game, the first being the excel
lent pitching of All Lum and the mis-
roble support he received behind the
bat, as in the eight innings he pitched
he struck out 10 men. Next, the Won
derful support that the Kauluwela
fieldeTs gave Kakalia, making but one
error, which had no effect ON, the
score; pulling off two double plays
and seemingly taking everything that
came anywhere near them in the way
of ch7nces. This alright fielding
twice kept Palama from scoring, with
men on third when the batter drove
the ball for what seemed to be a sure
hit, only to have a kauluwela fielder
spear it for an out. The last but not
the least feature was the excellent
brand of umpiring by Ben Clark and
John Comes, both of whom during the
recent series have easily demonstrate.
ed that they not only know the game
but are thoroughly capable Of handling
the players and enforcing the rules.
