Officers and admit fear and build up self control
Yesterday the soldier of the world had to pretend
to be absolutely without fear He had to be ashamed
of fear and the ideals of his calling compelled him to
scorn fear bitterly in any other soldier Now soldiers
and officers know fear and admit it. but it makes
difference in the performance of their duty.
1t is argued that this prevents panic. All the men
marching forward know the fear there is in the battle
ahead Of them They do not talk about it. but they do
not deny it. The ordinary natural degree of fear is
not perfectly gozed and covered up with false
assumption. Panic is this hidden fear breaking out

ALLEGE GANG
HOLDS Sway AT
WAIKIKI BEACH

Break up the Waikiki gang; cut
cut the rough stuff on the beach
this was the essence of the prosecu-
tons plea to Judge Monsarrat in the
police court to-day in the case of
Archie Boyd, accused of assaulting
George H. Wiley, manager of Heinies
Tavern. Boyd was found guilty and
fined $50.
Apparently an ordinary flight" case,
the trial developed this morning into
a plea of law-abiding citizens for or
der and deceney about Honolulu's
great playing place, Waikiki Beach.
Attorney Frank Thompson repre-
sented the prosecution 'in the inter.
ests of Honolulu's respectable. citi.
zens," he said. As an old friend of
Boyd's father, Attorney William J..
Sheldon took the young mans part.
Thompson told the court that Boyd
was one of big ''hoodlum" gang that
was bulldozing Waikiki Beach pa.
irons. The attorney let out on this
class of toughs.
Testimony showed that on the night
of May 20 in Heinie's Tavern, Boyd
0IAuSh "AlSy NlIuOuI pIONOCdliOH ditu
knocked him down. 1t was said by
several witnesses that Boyd was
pretty drunk. 1t is said he also cursed
frightfuHy in the presence of women
and broke wine glasses in the bar.
The whole trouble seems to have
started when Wiley asked Boyd to
pay his bill and informed him that
he had no credit at Heinie's Tavern.
New York has its BoWery; Chi
cago, Detroit, San Francisco, all have
their tough Places said Thompson,
and that's what certain gang is try
ing to make out of Waikiki Beach.
There is a bunch of drunken derelicts
like Steamboat Bill and Tough Bill |
that needs cleaning out. Their very
James suggest their character"
4 Attorney Sheldon pleaded for the
pm of a friend, saying that everyone |
, WED some wild oats and that this
lCS a simple case of reaping.
