which the Kahemahema athletes &C.
complained when they outscored their
opponents in yesterdays events.
From the time Richard whiteomb,
as referee, gave the word for the an
nounrer TO call the competitors to the
pit for the pole vault until Simeona
breasted the tape at the finish Of the

Hard Grind In Relay ~. .s... Al
Fourth ON the program was the four
mile relay race and this event lost
much of its charm owing to the high
wind that blew across the field and
made running difficult, particularly
for the younger men who were com
peting. For the first three niles Mills
stood out in front with Punahou close
up In the third mile, Kamehameha 3
runner showed fash Of speed and
when the men went into the fourth
mile, Mills was in the lead by three
hundred yards over Kamehameha.
Woolsey here took up the running for
Kamehameha and gradually but surely
began to cut down the lead of the
Mills man. Passing the seven eighths
pole, Woolsey jumped into first place
and while the Mills man gave the best
he had, he was unable to regain the
ground lost and Woolsey crossed the
line a winner by ten yards. ~

good. NJ
