SCH0F 1ELD BARRACKS, Aug. 20.
The Fort Shafter baseball team
made its appearance upon the local
diamond today and but for balloon
ascension in the ninth inning II would
have returned to the city with a we'll
earned victory over the 18th Infantry
The game was one Of the best seen
here for eight innings, with Shafter
on the lid. They scored two runs In

The 25th was held scoreless for six
innings and only obtained three hits
off Omama's delivery during this time.

looked as though the visitors were go

In the seventh the 18th scored when
Moore walked to first on four vide

The game then was alright until

down, Rogan went into the box, send
ing Aulston into center field. Omama
was also canned by his manager in
the eighth, Odeli taking his place. The
necessity for either change was not
apparent to the dyed-in-the-wool fans
Both these pitchers had been playing
very pretty ball and Omama, espe-.
cially, had the 18th Infantry sluggers
eating out of his hand.
They had made but five hits off
him during the time he was in the
box and any pitcher that holds the

Cullens beat out an infield nit, his
third safe one for tie day. and then
was forced out at second by Rogan.

zion. But still you may look through
the golf records and you won't find
many players with Hans for a mon
icre. There are McDonalds, a score
of Alex names, Douglas and Gordon,
but Hans is seldom seen.
Yesterday afternoon Hans Thoene,
which Is far from Scotch name,
made the Moanalua course in 81.
Harold Giffard, Frank Armstrong, C.
F. Cleveland and Willard Grace have
made the course in less than so, while
Frank Halstead has made nine holes
in around 80, but neither of these
players have anything on Hans.
Hans is a tow-headed youngster, IL
years old, and he doesn't look that
old. He averages up with fair-sized
caddy bag. His play Of yesterday
was remarkable in that he used only
a brassie and mashie for the entire
couse. On three occasions, using his
mashie for a putter, he holed out from
the edge Of the green. In one round
he secured four fives and three fours,
which is pretty fair golf for young
ster with only two clubs.
