WAILUKU, Maui, July 8.-After
everybody believed that the deadlock
In local baseball circles rad been
broken, and after the haul athletic
Club had got together IN a sort Of
loye-feast and published another sche-
1dule beginning with a game for next
Sunday between Pnunene and Wailu-
ku, everything is Off once more. Not
only will there not be game on Sun
day, but 1t Is entirely probable. that
there VIII be no regular series played
this season.
The trouble was thought to be set
tied when Foster Robinson of the
Paia team renowned his first deter
mination not 10 pitch at all If ais
brother Alvin, now a resident of Pu-
uneRe, was not allowed to catch him,
Now it turns ont that Alvin Robinson
declines to play with Paunene, and
Manager Paschoal declares that he.
hasn't material without aim to make
q team. and therefore PHunene will
not play at all. Robinson is report
ed TO give as his reason for not play.
ing with Puunene that he IL too old,
and that he has quit the game.

Especial Star -Bailetin Correspondehee)
WAILUKU, 1faui, July s. Starting
off with a snap that promised one of
the most sensational games In years,
the Fourth Of july polo game at the
Keahua field quickly slunped to
mediocre and wound up at the end
of the eighth period with a score of
12k to 2 in favor of the local four.
At least a part Of the trouble was
probably due to the horses of xhe HO-
nolulu visitors being apparently out
OF condition. A good deal had been
expected OF this game, since the hne-
up of each team was the same as it
was two years ago In Honolulu when
ten periods were necessary to break
the tied score In wonderfully brill
liant game.
The game was witnessed by a big
holiday crowd which repaired to the
polo grounds Immediately following
the conclusion of the races at Kahu-
lui. ... a-8
s. A. Baldwin, though now a Maui
man, played with the Honolulu team.
The others on this lineup were Arthur
Rice, Walter Dillingham; and Harold
Castle. The Mauis played in their.
regular order-Co llins, r. F. Baldwin
II. Rice and Fleming. - So
Following the game Mr.. and Mrs.
Frank Baldwin were hosts alta dinner.
served at the Maui Hotel to some so,
Honolulu and Maui guests. Following
the dinner dancing was indulged in
for several hours.

Dear Sir: In the boxing match be-
tween J. =. Quinn and Joe Potts at.
6chufield Barracks on the 18th Of July.
1916, your paper stated that Quinn was
knocked out by Potts; such is not,
q fact.
], J.J. Quinn, was knocked down by
Potts for the count of nine CO.., then
I was hit by him, Potts, while on one
knee and on the point of rising. I
was not Knocked down the second
time. The matth should have con-
tinued or Potts should have been dis.
Qualified
It was also stated that / was In.
clined to hold It was Potts own sug-
gestion that we box one hand free.
Potts made 1t appear that he wanted
to break, but every time that / wanted
to break he would hit and hold on
with his left hand. He knew that I
never had a glove on for the contest
and fought to suit himself and not ac-'
cording to boxing regulations. For
my contest with Cpl. Dennis had the
gloves on three times, for Potts L
never had them on. Icould not get a
man In the LIST Infantry to box with
me. Pay for spaffing partners Is part
Of my ltraining expenses, but try as
might could not get man of the 1st

My only training for the 4th Of July

contest. On Saturday evening, July 1,
I weighed 1914 pounds Il would get in

me, but at present I have no one. Potts
and Dennis had plenty Of sparring
partners and even had a manager
while / had nothing but the county
road. I am not trying to take away
any credit from Potts. He Is good
man, but put him in my condition and
see what he win do. 1t seems kind
of sad that out of 1900 men could
not find one man that would box about
