i. WORLDS RECORD ATTY JULY z
Duke p Kahanamok George Cunha, Clarence Lane John

4ooYard Relay Record Now Held BY illinois Athletic Club
Five Swimmers Have Made Faster Time as lndipiduas

A "star-chamber'' session Of the
swimmers most interested was held
in the office OF the physical director
of the Y. NJ. c. A. last night. Those
present at the meeting were Duke p:
Kahan amoku, George Cunha, Harold
Kruger, John sKelii, Harry Decker,
Clair TAFT and G. F.. Jackson.
As a. result of the meeting II has
been decided 10 stage an interesting
novice swimming meet one week from
this Saturday night with an all-star
relay team featuring the meet in an
attempt to- lower the worlds record
for the 400 yards. s..
Dillingham; Cup
A few days ago Harold Dillingham;
Offered b cup to the winning aoyice
team IN an all-novice meet, There had
also been talk OF the relay and the
meeting last night saw; the possibili-
ties OF combining the two ideas. Dbl
ingham is cooperating with the Off
GERS Of the association I'm making the
swimming game more popular than it
has ever been before in the local
tank.
Four teams are the probable entries.
The Bank Of Hawaii will home In with
Percy Sottage as captain, the Associa.
ton dormitory IS headed BY Ernest
Cameron, the H. A. c. organization
also has a bunch OF novices to be
handled by Werner Smith, while the
Triple A crowd will enter with David
Bent managing its affairs.
Let EN- Suffer
An interesting. and perhaps exeit-
ing feature OF the meet will be a
Secretaries vs.. Directors relay of 160
yards. From the best available dope
the Directors have the edge on the
Secretaries anyway it ought to be
exciting.
Although the, meet Is to be OF the
same high-class as previous meets
pulled off at the association tank, IT
mas been thought best not to charge
any admission. This is because the
principal prize of the evening. the
cup. is already given and the assecia.
ton has never attempted 70 make any
molsy on its meets bit merely pro.
mote tile sport.

HILO. July 13.-''Ned. Crabbe de-
serves all the aloha OF the people of
Hilo Cor the way in which he took
hold OF the rowing game In this city

declared one Of halfa-dozen sporting
men who yesterday were talking about
the fine showing made by the Hilo
senior. and junior oarsmen on July
Fourth.
Il should saw So" chipped in an
other nan. why, Crabbe took hold
of those boys lust thirtv-two days be-
fore the great day. Three OF the
lads had never been In barge-mnch
less pulled in one. The boys did not
know how to climb into their boat
and as matter of fact there was dam
ger for some time at first that the
bottom of the barge would be burst
by the unaccustomed feet And who
would have imagined for a second
that last Tuesday the crews world
null such good races and make the
Honolulu oarsmen exert themselves
to the last ounce in order to win by a
few feet in both races" 49,.
improved Crew
You're dead right" said a third
man, Il never thought it possible for
oarsmen to be developed in such a
short time. The men rowed with a
beautiful stroke. did not splash at all
and finished in the gamest possible
fashion If the junior crew had squirt
ed just a trifle they would have won
their race. AS ii is. is was the best
race seen in years anywhere on
earth" r.. ..- ..s-.-z Gss.S 49,. -

Squirrel. Grafton had another
chance for circus catch In the first
inning, when he let Halls drive go
over his head for three bases. The
fans were much disappointed. but
Grafton atoned with a couple of home
runs.
Swinton should perhaps be credited
with an error for dropping a foul off
Preciado,s hat in the fourth. How
ever, he made such q glorious effort
that the scorer did not have the heart.
Wares triple would have gone for.
only two bases had the Santa Clara
fielders perked up little.
Jackson, the little southpaw, who
started the pitching for the 25th. Is
almost small enough to be the teams
mascot He was raped hard in the
first, but did better in the second and
third. He was little too wild and
erratic, however, to suit Lieut.. Cha
ney.
1t is a difficult matter to say which
of the Santa Clara pitchers showed
the best form, Bliss, Brown or Leo
nard They all looked alike to the
,wreckers and were given no quarter.
The Santa Claras did not take a.
strong fancy to our umpires, but we
are very proud of them out here, and
believe that they are as efficient and
fair as any in the territory.

Mr.. Charles Winner will speak to
the people at the bandstand tonight
and warn them against the dangers
of Romanism. Mr.. Winner is an
earnest young man, and has told his
story SO. often that he has come to be-
lieve at least some of it himself. Mr.
Winner was pleasant visitor at the
Star Office this morning and told US
many interesting things. Among
other information that he impaired
to US was that the pope favored the
South in the Civil War, consequently
the Catholics supported the Confed-
eracy tooth and toenail. This alone is
enough to cause the people of this 80
per cent southern community to re-
gard the hundred or two of Catholics
that dwell among them with extreme
suspicion. We had better heed Mr..
Winner and his co-laborers, or we
may wake up some fine morning and
find the pope's flag flying over the
courthouse.

OCALA COULD
STAND It
Railroad Strike Would be Rough on
Our People but They Wouldn't
be Ruined

What the effect on Ocala and Mar
ion county will be in the event of a
general railroad strike, entirely tying
up train service, is difficult to deter
mine. This county is certainly as
well prepared to meet the situation
as any section of the state, and prob
ably better prepared than most coun-
ties to withstand the hardships of
isolation Even should the river fail
to help matters, and should the sup
ply of gasoline for motor cars give
out, the people of Marion county
would not lack food 1t would be
necessary to econonlize, many luxur-
les would have to be done away with,
higher prices would obtain, but the
rich lands of this county would sup
ply meats, vegetables and staples,
and the waters would supply fish
without end. The county's bumper
corn crop would provide an abundance
of grits and meal, the meal making
an excellent substitute for -four The
sweet potato crop would supply the
county for months. The cowpea crop
is not to be overlooked. Peanuts, of
which there are thousands of acres,
would provide substitute for butter.
The peanut butter factories are in the
county, and could work overtime.
Sugar cane would provide the county
with 'long sweetening" for long
period with proper conservation.
On the other hand many persons
would be thrown out of work, busi-
ness would be compelled to close,
some would probably be forced en-
tirely out of business, construction
work would cease for lack of mater
ials and left unfinished would deter
iorate, manufactures forced to shut
down for lack of fuel, material or a
market, would suffer from deprecia-
tion.
Home talent would have to be de-
pended on for amusement. Both
Ocal and Marion have plenty of good
talent. The public utilities of the
city and county would not suffer to
any great extent, because of the use
of wood for fuel and because of the
waterpower. The county is well sup
piled with mules in case automobiles
are put out. of business because of a
lack of gasoline, oil, tires or parts.
The city is said. to be very well sup
piled with drugs.
