The Braves met and defeated the
Standards, a newly organized baseball
team, at Atkinson park last Sunday,
to the tune of to 3.
The Standards scored two runs in
the first and one in the third, but
were unable to circle the bags any
more during the game. The Braves
scored two each in the first, second,
seventh and ninth. 80
Although the Standards baseball
team is new one, the players are
not, most of them being we'll known in
the junior baseball world. It is only
necessary for them to get together
and have team practise and they will
soon make name for themselves. The
Braves showed their usual speed and
good teamwork.

viii Honolulu win the Coast League
bowling pennant? That Is the ques-
ton that has been asked by many of
the Knights VI the Maple Slide during
the past week. The score of the Ho-
nolulu. Vallejo games show that Homo
lulu is still two games behind the
league leaders. The Naval Training
team at the present time leads the
league, but they have still one game
with Sacramento that has not been
received. Should the Capitol City
bowlers take three out Of four from
the Navy boys, Honolulu would be the
pennant winner. An even break win
mean a tie for first place. and by WIN
ming only one game the Sacramento
team would shove the locals into sec
ond position.
In the match with Vallejo the local
players rolled consistent games, only
one Vallejo man having better score
than Honolulu's low man. Oliver
Soares was first for the locals with a
total Of 546, while Chamberlain also

third baseman, although the Boston
fans believe that Gardner will make
a good showing this year. Gardner is
popular In Boston town, and In 1912
he was considered the leading fielding
third bassman in the league, but he
has slowed up considerably in. the
past two or three years, and Is not
hitting up to his standard. Still he
may be the logical choice for the posi-
ton when the Boston team opens the
season. ... ses-s.- Il. 2 II
Fans and fannettes are unanimous
in the opinion that Jack Barry will do
at the second sack, and his great work
OF last year will not be forgotten. At
the shoftfield position Carr1gal will
have Scott and Janvrin, one a good
hitter and poor fielder, the other
good fielder and poor hitter. IL the
qualities could be combined the Red
Sox would have strong squad. At
first base Hohlitzel and Del Gainor
will again fight It ont for the job. and
without a doubt both players will be
retained. There do not appear to be
a great extent this year, and Carrigan
has already handed the blue envelope
to Holmes, O'Neill, Smith and Cooper.
A Star Jungle Crew. -
Not only has Boston strong pitch
ing staff, but they will have wonder
full outfeld again this season. Many
fans believe that the trio consisting
OF Speaker, Lewis and Hooper will
slow up this year. They could slow
up q heap and still be stars in their
positions; but they were playing just
as good ball at the close of last sea-
son as they were at the start, and
Lewis and Hooper proved that they
could hammer the ball around the lot
in the worlds champion tilt captured
by the Sox.
Speaker has signed for the year, and
the talk Of his being a real holdout
was settled when he came to terms
with Lannin. Last year Speaker drew
down something like $4,000 for the
season. This year his contract Is said
to be $4,000, but then this isn't the
day OF princely salaries since the Feds
have given up the ghost. Hendrick-
son will be carried as a utility man,
while Wood has stated that he may
ask for an outfield job If he fails to
come back as pitcher.
Taking everything in consideration
the Boston team looks like strong
contender for the honors again this
year, but it is too early to attempt to
pick a winner, with five teams figured
as having chance for the bunting.
New York, St Louis. Chicago, Detroit
and Boston all should make strong
fight this year, and Washington, too,
II Griff can land a few hard hitters.
Boston viii be in the running. That
Is quite enough to say with five strong
beams lighting for the big honors this
year. The next article will contain a
review OF the prospects Of the Detroit
team for 1916.

Is the deadliness of the automobile
increasing or decreasing? This ques-
tions appear to be answered IN a
very conclusive manner by the Uni
ted States Bureau of the Census in
making public some preliminary NOR
tally statistics for the year. 1914,
which indicates that during the five
years from 1909 to 1914 the number
OF automobiles in use in the United
States increased more than twice as
rapidly as the number Of fatalities
caused by them.

CLOSE CONTESTS
BOOKED IN BIG
CORNELL
Stars of Track and Field Will
Meet at kamehameha Field
ION Saturday Afternoon

Followers Of tract and field athlet-
les will have another opportunity to
watch the stars on the cinder path and
In the field events on Saturday after
noon at Kamehameha field when the
annual Cornell meet will be held.
Many of the stars who will enter the
various events competed in the A. A.
u. meet, and showed to advantage
against the older runners.
At the present time Mills, by virtue
of win in the cross country run, Is
leading the field with Kamehameha
second. The former school has q
number of long distance stars, but
have not shown to advantage in the
other events. The events should be
closely, contested, and hard fight is
looked for in the relay events.
Kan q Favorite.
Many critics are picking Kameha-
meha to win the relay events and the
meet, but other schools are centering
their strength on one relay, and Ka-
mehameha will have a hard time in
making a clean sweep in the relay
races. It is almost certain that Mills
viii send strong team into the four
mile relay, and Kamehameha will
have to show plenty of speed to win
from the cross country winners.
In the two-mile relay they will be
fighting against Mckinley, who viii
have a fast squad, and Kamehameha
viii have to send in their best talent
If they expect to take this event. With
Bush, Lee, Hawkins and Stickney, the
high school runners will have an e1
cellent chance to take this event Ka-
mehameha should figure strong in
the one-mile relay, but ST. Louis will
have fast squad to send into the half
mile relay event.
Planned Attack.
Kamehameha has a number of
star runners, but with Mills strong
in one relay, Mckinley in another, St
Louis placing their strength in just
one race, and Punahou shaping its
team for a big trial in the one-mile
event, the Kamehameha men will have
strong opposition.
In he100-yard run Glib of Punahou,
HDre and Fernandez Of st. Louis and.
Simeona of Kamehameha should split
the points This event should be one
of the best of the meet. Punahou is
expected TOWN the pole vault with
Lindley and Mott-Smith strong con.
tenders. St Louis Is expected to
score in the broad jump, as Thomas
Hore proved that he could make a
good showing when he took second
place In the a. A u. meet.
ST. Louis Strong in Hurdle.
Hore and Dover should fight it out
for the low hurdles, with the former
a fayorite. Peter Wright, Glib and
Austin are also expected to make a
good showing over the low sticks.
Ioane will have good chance In the,
shot put, although there are num-
Der of other strong weight men en-
tered Lindley is the choice as win
ner of the high jump event.
The meet promises to be an excit-
ing one throughout, and both Kane
hameha and St Louis are figuring on
a victory. Kamehameha has lead
thus far, and may be able to crowd
enough wins to score out in the final
summing up. From the dope at pre-
sent it is not thought that the winner
will score an easy victory, and the
games this year are expected to be
close throughout.

MAKE TRIP FOR

A. A. U. VIII Send Gilbert and
Other Stars to Compete
With MainIanderS

Honolulu will send n track team 10
the coast. This was assured after the
A. A. u. meet when q number OF stars
made cerditable showing In the var
icus events. How many will go Ii
still question. but II Is certain that
from three TO six men will make the
trip.
Officials Of the. A. A. u. are salts
fled that Gilbert and Mills would be
able to make eFeditabIe showing In
the sprtnts. while Ludlam has done
excellent work In the weights. Then
again the broad jump was won by 81
mon In distance that Is not SO far
behind the marks that are being made
en- the coast at the present time.
II Honolulu could send a half.mile
relay team to the coast they would
be almost certain TO clean up against
the best clubs west Of Chicago. At
the present time the Olympic Club.
Los Angeles Athletic Club, Multno-
NAH or Seattle Athletic clubs Ne
not four men who can run the furljrk
faster than the best sprintsrs in Ha-
wall.
The men in the distance runs here
VI course CdH nOt. nope 10 compete
against the best on the coast, nor
could Hore, Dreier and Dover expect
to win in the hurdles or at the best
place with such star timber toppers
as F. Kelly, Murray, House, Norton.
Preble, Case and others, not including
Thompson, the high school competing.
The local boys would have 4 hard
time to place IN the trials. Neither
have the boys In the vault or high
jump as yet showed the class neces-
sary to meet the stars Of the coast
section.
The sending OF a track team to the
mainland would be one OF the biggest
boosts for athletics that could be
thought Of Howard Drew Is known
all over America. II Gilbert could
win from some Of the best IN the
sDrints, and It Is not At al unlikely,
then Honolulu would receive recogni-
ton in the track and field world. A
victory for the colored runner would
be an opportunity for the followers ~,
track and field to look to Hawaii ~
the future for champions.
