William Bachrach, famous l. 4. c,

Olympic games, according to the San

to note the swimmers he is reported
to have said he would pick for the
american teams. This is the state
ment:
America could put team in the
water this year." he went on. that
would not give the other countries a
chance. The Germans. before the
war, had about 10000 breast swim.
mers. 1t is their national stroke and
they might have gotten away with a
point or two in that event, but apart

did ROSS WIN
EASILY in RACE
AGAINST CUNHA?

News of the big swimming meet
held at Neptune beach on September
so has reached Honolulu and tells of
Ross's defeat of Cunha. The San
Francisco Bulletin tells about the meet
as follows: III. -.~
, The note of interrogation which
has overhung the sprint swimming
of Norman Ross and George Cunha
was definitely and dramatically erased
by the achievements of the Olympic
giant at Neptune Beach, Alameda,
yesterday. r.. ..:.F n:
I'm the 50-yard, Cunha's pet dis
lance, Norman Ross won easily, COW
ering the brief stretch in "A seconds,
a Pacific Coast record. Cunha swan
in perfect style and with q fine dash,
but was positively not in it.
THE winner showed the spirit of a
champion. His friends and advisers
besought him not to swim. They said
it was not necessary and pointed out
that he risked defeat, and that Cunha
was leaving today for the army camp
at American Lake. Probably it was
this latter statement that sent the
Winged o" man into the water with
rush.
THE two men shook hands like gen.
uine amateur athletes after the race
IN the 100 Ross beat Dayy Jones,
the youngster of Illinois, the latter
having stern work to leave Walter
Grace in his wake. Louis McLane and
other timers were disappointed that
Ross did not establish a new record
for this event. He perceptibly slow
ed down when finding that the oppo-
sition was not dangerous. Ross is not
sufficiently stimulated by clock COM

fighting opposition of men to stir him

liantly. Walter Grace was second and
Sandy Goodman third, the time be-
ing 10 4-5 seconds.
Ross won the 100-yard backstroke

is expected, will prove to be an Anne
rican record for the distance.

In the first three games of the
worlds baseball championship series.
the pitchers have figured conspicu-
ously, and for the New York Giants
these three famous "southpaws" have
taken this part in the respective con-
tests. Slim" Sallee appeared first
in the opening game in Chicago which
the home team won; "Ferdie" Schupp
appeared second when the New York
Giants suffered bad defeat, and
"Rube" Benton appeared yesterday
when New York came back and finally
won game. --.=.
Although Benton was opposed by
Cicotte on the mound for the White
Sox, he was able to bring home to
New York their first victory. He
pitched masterful ball while the IA
nous Ccotte went up into the air
in the fourth inning when Robertson
sent out that three-base hit, Holke
Honolulu star-bulletin. [volume] (Honolulu [Oahu, Hawaii]) 1912-2010, 1917-10-11

followed it with a single and Burns
later with that single.
Sallee did not meet with the same
success when he met Cicotte in Chi
cago. The latter, heralded as the
Chisox greatest twirler. was playing
on a field with which he was &C.
quainted, however, and this undoubt.
eddy was an advantage.
Schupp pitched for the Giants in the
Sunday game which was lost by a
large margin to Chicago. The latter
hit him Al over the lot and made
victory quite easy.
Just how the pitchers will appear
in the remaining games of the sea-
son is something that Manager Nc
Graw can only say. Sallee will un-
doubtedly appear again and probably
Benton. but whether Sehupp will be
used after the last game that he
pitched remains a question. 4

Owen MERRICK IS
NOW in PORTLAND

Owen Merrick of the Star Bulletin
staff is at his home in Portland, Ore
gon, on vacation. 1t will be remem-
bered that he left Honolulu suddenly
following the receipt of news to the
effect that his mother was very i'll.
The Portland Journal says about him:
Owen Merrick, sports editor of
the Honolulu Star.Bulletin. arriv-
ed in Portland yesterday to visit
at his old home for several weeks,
having been absent for three or
four years. Merrick formerly
wrote sports in Portland and is
we'll acquainted with every angle
of athletics. He has the Invest
sport sheet in Honolulu and makes
a speciality of organizing amateur
leagues. AS q result Honolulu
plays more baseball to the square
inch than any city in the world.
" "Merrick was one of those res
ponsible for taking the Portland
Beavers to Honolulu for their
training trip last spring and they
made such a good impression,
owen says, that the far want
them to return some time. If the
Beavers manage to squirt from
now on and. win the Coast League
pennant, Merrick says the Homo
lulans will be daffy over the club,
which they look upon with pro-
prietary interest" ~. s.-

teamwork by next week. -. F..
Had there been no last quarter 8
rally during the game with College
of Hawaii, Punahou fans would have
been very discouraged with the pros.
poets, for the first three quarters
were very slow and ragged. Cap
tain Dudley Pratt has been suffering
another injury. He has a slightly
wrenched knee, which is very painful
and which slows him up badly. He
will probably be ready for the Nc
Kinley game, however. Fred Peterson
has been in bed for the past two
days from a badly bruised hip, which
he got in taking out" the scrub
ends in practise. Hermann Alexan-
der has also been out with badly
strained ankle. Last night both Ma
hikoa and FassDth received minor in
iuries while practising returning
punts.
Cause For Injuries
The cause for these many injuries
is juzzling the coaches. 1t is thought
probable that the very hot weather
and consequent limp condition of the
men figure in the mischief making.
At any rate, Punahou faces a serious
training and conditioning problem az
present. .....
Punahou meets the Honolulu mill.
tary school in a practise scrimmage
this afternoon. This will be an i'm
portant feature of preparation for Sat
urday's game, which will be played on
McKinley's home grounds. Moiliili

WORLDS SERIES
UMPIRES HAVE
HAD DIFFERENCE
Klein, RigIer and 0'LoughIin
Are Men of Long Baseball
Records

The umpires Of the world series Of
1917 are william J. Klein and Charles
Rigler, National League, and Frank
O'Loughlin and William G. Evans
American League. All of these have
had considerable experience as arbi
tiers of play in the worlds champion
ship contests. This quartet worked
together in 1912 when the Boston Red
Sox defeated the Giants in the mem
orable eIght-game series and again In
1915, when the Boston Americans won
four out of Ave games from the Phil
adelphia Nationals. Now for the third
time they have been chosen to act
together, calling balls and strikes;
making decisions on the bases, and
watching the foul lines, each in his
turn as. the series progresses.
Klem's first experience in the big
baseball feature was in 1908 and since
that time only two worlds flags have
been won, without his having been
connected with games in his official
capacity. The exceptions were the bat.
ties OF 1910 and last year. So that the
coming series will be the eighth in
which he will have taken an active
part.
'O'LoughIin ante-dates Klein in
world series history as he was one of
the umpires in the Chicago series Of
1906 when the White Sox beat the
Cubs four out of six games. He Off
ciated again in the 1909 series be-
tween Pittsburg and Detroit when the
FL, Ia 81, fhn
ers in the seventh game and won the
championship. Then in 1912 and 1915
he was active and the coming con.
test will mark his fifth appearance in
the world series.
Rigler also will officiate for the fifth
time In worlds championship strug'
gle, when he steps out on the diamond
at Chicago. In 1910 together with
Connolly, ODay and Sheridan, he UNI.
pired the series between the Athletics
and Chicago Nationals. In 1913 he was
appointed for the New York-Philadel'
phia series, while in 1912 and again
in 1915, he and the other three UNI.
pires who are officiating this year
worked together. .;.... .
Evans hadshis initial experience as
a world series arbiter in 1909, when
he worked with tombstone, KLEIN and
Evans, in the Pittsburg- Detroit series.
Then again in 1912 and 1915 he and
his partners of this year made up the
umpiring staff, which has been re-
appointed for a third term. The as
signments of umpires for world series
since 1908 follows:

GAME NOT TO BE FOR
Benefit OF RED CROSS

Although the proceeds of the game
to be played at Moiliili on Sunday
will go to the Red Cross, the pro.

yesterday afternoon. While it will

ERNEST GRAY ELECTED
SECOND TEAM CAPTAIN

Ernest Gray was elected captain OF
the second football team at the meet
ing Of the Punahou scrubs" yester'
day.
Gray's election was a logical one,
although there are several strong men
out for the scrub lineup. Gray is q
conner" 1t is probable that he will
see more or less service on the varsity
this year, and he doubtless will make
good before he is through school. He
is sophomore.
The scrubs hope to arrange a series
of games as soon as possible. They
will probably play the Honolulu mill
