ing. Although Kan lost on the grid
iron they broke even with the Puns II
the cheering Hundreds of rooteri
lined either side of the field and thqii
songs and yells were blended in ~
echo during the entire play. The Ficlt
Artillery band played through the af
ternOon, which added signany TO thu
spirit of the day. Even the blenchel
critic forgot his usual cHustic remarks
in the excitement of the game.
PunahOu won because of superio,
team work, faster lineups, and greater
ability of handling the forward pas
Kamehameha played hard game
throughout, but lacked the punch n
critical times. If the Kan team had
played as well during the first half
as it did in the second, the Buff and
Blue would never have run the score
to nineteen. With the increasing dark
ness the Kan Fighting spirit grew, and
in the last ten minutes Of play the ca
lets came near to scoring touchdown
2uns Greatly Improved
PunahOu showed marked improve
nent over any combination displayed
~ them this season. The team work
vas of high order; the interference
worked we'll; the line held like a wall;
L., q. Il,
and the team showed pep and speed in
ming up after each play. In fact the
.leven men worked like well oiled
'moOthly running machine. The Puns
as team, were stronger on the OfrrnsP
Than Kamchamcha. They particularly
Jutclassed Kan in the use of the for.
ward pass. In defensive playing Puma
SOu again had the edge on the Kan
men.
The Puns made sixteen points of the
nineteen during the first half, on O
place-kick and touchdown by Kauhane
md Il touchdown. from forward pass,
by Alexander. The only score of the
second half came in the : rd period
when Peterson kicked goal from
placement from the twenty 6ve-yard
line. Kamehameha received the great
est number of penalties, while Punahou
aimed the greatest yardngc.
<auhane and Dover Star
There were many individual stars
Turing the game. The hOnOrs of
he day should be shared between
Kauhane and Dover
Noble KauhanP, the speedy Punahou
left halfback, WAS marvel at picking
hoies and shaking off 'taeklers with his
peculiar side twist. He was responsible
for ten points made by his team. Not
only is Kauhane a great open field
.unner and heady defensive player, but
ie is dangerous man with his toe
within the thirty-five yard mark.
Dover stood head and shoulders
tbCNe his teammates. He carried the
ball repeatedly for long end runs, and
is one Of the hardest runners ever seen
IN local gridirOn. He ran the team
we'll, but the breaks were often against
Kan, and much splendid work was lost
Fnss0th, for puuahOu, was in the
gam" every minute Of the four periods.
de never spared himself and was re-
'ponsihI" for breaking up the end runs
and forward passes directed at his end
Peterson, the tail fullbuck played the
gam" If hs life. He hit the line hard
ami his Punts bewilIcrrd the Kan 8
backs. Hawkins shared in the hOuors
and played steady game.
Mahikoa Good General
Mnl'kOu was on excellent general
and used his head at ulI times. The
entire line worked hard and very few
Yam : backs found their way through
the strong defense.
HusSey, Kan s right end, spilled the
interference" continually and succeed
ed IN getting the runner on many Or-
c0siOns. Eaton. Bertlrman, Kaiona and
Hobbs PLAYED good football and saved
Pun runner from getting great
distance.
First Score From Placement
PunahOu Kicked of to Knmehameha
Dover returning ten wards. Kan could
not gain aud was forced to kick. Knu-
nan" was then given the ball and with
two Wid" end runs n"tted thirty yards.
kHm held on, the twenty-five yurd line
and kauhamc WAS sent back for a. place
kick. He booted the ball sduarely be.
tween the uprights for the first Pun
score.
On the next kick off Kan could not
gain and was forced to punt. With q
series Of end runs and on tackle bucks
Punahou carried the ball to the fifteen
yard line, where Kaubane was sent
over for touchdown No goal.
Hawkins ree0"ered Kan forward
pass near tn" close of the first period
aud ran forty.fve yards before he was
downed. Kan then returned the favor
by taking Pun forward pass. Kan
had success with the forward in this
period and marched down the field
forty wards before they could be stop
