YALE MEET ON
SATURDAY MAY
UPSET RECORDS
lnterschoIastic Swimming Meet
at 7. M. C. A. Attracts
Students to Tank

Under the auspices of the Yale
Alumni Association the first real in
terscholastic swimming meet will be
held in the Y. M. G. A. tank on Sat
urday evening. The different schools
have entered teams in meets when
the old Hotel Baths was the scene of
tank swimming, and A. A. U. meets in
the harbor. However, never before
has there been genuine competition
among the students of Honolulu in a
sport which Hawaii outranks all other
sections of the country.
Since the time w. T. Rawlins, Fred
Alexander and Morris Damon were on
the first Yale swimming team, the
sons of Eli in Hawaii have been keen
ly interested in swimming, and at
the present moment there are five
Hawaiians on the Yale swimming
squad. George Cooke was the cham
pion plunger while at Yale and for a
time held the collegiate record. So
il is all the more appropriate that the
Yale alumni should come forward and
boost swimming among the boys in
Honolulu. They are making the meet
an annual affair and the handsome
trophy that they have offered will go
to the school winning the meet three
times. Another cup will be presented
to the team winning the relay race in
each meet, so that the school with best
combination of six men has an added
incentive to develop material.
Much Interest In Meet.
Not since the opening of the tank
has there been such activity in the Y.
NJ. C. A. pool. Punahou and Mckinley
are practising especially hard and the
high school boys believe they will
have the edge on their ancient rivals.
While Mckinley is strong in the
sprints, Punahou has experts in the
diving and plunging events. Trainer
TAFT. at the ''Y'' is giving special in
struction to the novices in the diving
contests, and these events promise to
be holly contested.
Kamehameha and st. Louis will give
good account of themselves, and
are trying out their material. 1t is
the desire of the Yale men that the
meet should not only show who are
the stars among the students in the
various schools, but should encourage
the development of speed and endur.
ance among the swimmers who never
before have "shone forth" To
accommodate as many entries as pos
sible a preliminary meet will probably
be held Friday night. and the winners
of the heats will swim in the finals
on Saturday. =

COSMOS MATCH

Frank Benson practically einched
the high average prize for the Y. NJ.
C. A. bowling season last night, with
George Reed a close second. While
the Service took two out of three from
the Cosmos and thereby retained q
fighting chance for the championship,
Benson and Reed were bowling their
mightiest for the high average honor.
Reed averaged 1913 last evening and
boosted his grand average to 177.10
for the full As games. Benson was

Decided In Relay Run
Juniors Win nercIass Meet BY Five Points When Clifford Mem
Breasts the Tape Ahead Of Shckney in Last Event-Mem
and Stckney Prove to Be Big Point Wnners-Fast Time in
SprintS-Quarter Mile Race Good Event

In an exciting track meet at Kane

that was not decided until the last
event was finished, the Juniors Of
Mckinley high school captured the
iriLerclass meet by score of 40
points,. The Seniors were second with
IS points, while the Freshmen nosed
out the Sephomores by one point
making a first and third place.
Clifford Melim was the big point
winner Of the afternoon, annexing 16
Joints for his class, and in addition
finished the last 220 yards of the win
ming relay. Joe Stickney of the
Seniors secured a total of IL points
during the afternoon. Stickney en-
tered the furlong, but fell in the turn
and injured his knee, which slowed
him up In the other events.
Bush Takes Mile.
The mile run, although made in
rather slow time, proved that McKin-
ley has runner who is bound to

a nice stride for a miller, and led the
field. of runners to the tape, letting
himself out a little in the last quar-
ter, winning from Lee and Sam Carter
by yards.
Clifford Melim romped home in the
furIohg ahead Of David Bent, who was
closely pressed by Yang You. Joe
Stickney entered this event, but on &C.
count of no lanes being marked was
crowded, and fell on the cinder-path
The time for the 220 was good, Melim
finishing up in 23:1. Melim showed
another burst of speed In the century,
winning by yards from Yang You, who
beat out David Bent for second place.
Considering the condition of the track,
and the early season work, the time
OF f0.2 was fast.
Sflekney Ahead In Half.
Joe Stickney, using qua-ter-mils

into the lead early In the race, and
although A. Bush was running well
In the last quarter, the latter failed
TO catch the Senior at the tape. Lee
finished third. The time was slow for
the distance.
The quater-mile was one of the most
exciting races Of the day. At the be.
ginning of this race the two leading
classes were tied, and the Seniors
were banking on Joe Stickney to win,
while the Juniors pinned their hopes
on Clifford Melim. Neither one Of
the stars could take the lead in the
first furiong. and Fukumoto set the
pace for the first $50 yards, when
Clifford Melim went after him and

Tribute to the Mule.

louisville Courier-Journal.)
The mule is singularly free from
the ills to which horsefesh is heir.
He has more days work in him In
365 consecutive days than any farm
animal or farm engine. He requires
less feed when at work than any
horse that can approach his capacity,
for when he is idle he ran forage sue
cessfully where the draft horse finds
the picking too slim. He takes pot
tuck with any owner cheerfully and
keeps fit upon it.
In peace the mule is mans most
faithful servant, although the gen.
tlest of his kind is not entirely free
from original sin, and the Oldest may
experience unaccountable sporatic
outbreaks of devilment.
In war the mule retains his char
acter as hard toiler, good scout
and homely figure, about whom the
poets and painters at the front do
not grow enthusiastic. Although he
is unsung when living and not great
ly honored, he is not unwept when,
at 80 or beyond. he lies down, sighs
peacefully rather than regretfully.
and gives up his Spartan spirit.
If there is a hereafter for animals
the mules paradise is series of
Elysian fields with fences that only
q good jumper can clear, with colts
to chase, with something alive, and
preferably two-legged, to kick. and
with plenty of rough, plain victuals
and a few goats to play with in spor-
tive moods, and negro drivers, not
brutal, yet not too indulgent, for hu-
man companionship.
