HurdIer Simpson
Best Track Star

Brilliant performances on the cinda5
paths during the year of 1916 were
many, but no one athlete stood out in
holder relief than Bob Simpson, Mis-,
souri's stellar hurdler.
Simpson has participated in com
petitiye athletics for only four years
He is just % years of age, yet among
American athletes he ranks with the
best. Upon entering Missouri Uni
versity in 1914 he took up hurdling
and previous to that time he had
never cleared hurdle in any college
meet. That he should rise to the pin;
nacle in two years is nothing short oil
a marvel
It was G. p Nicholson. a graduate
of Missouri and holder of the confer
ence record of Is 1-5 seconds, who
Induced Simpson to try his skill over
the hurdles. After two weeks of in
structicn he was defeated by his
pupil
In 1915, at the Western collegiate
games at UrbaHa, Simpson beat the
conference record and equaled the
worlds record by flying over the hur
dies in Is flat. Fred Kelly, the Olym'
pic champion, was the holder OF the
record up to that time.
During the spring of 1916 Simpson
startled followers of athletics by bet
tering his mark He cleared the 800
yard high hurdles in 1874 seconds
and in several other meets he made
marks OF IA As. At the 1916 confer.
ence championships, held at North
western University, he again touched
the IA "a seconds mark.
Racing against Kelly, Thompson
and Murray at Newark last fall,
Simpson once more proved his cali
Der by heading the field in IA As

many fine performances and he de-

GIRLS FEAR POISON, WON'T
EAT CANDY, AND SAVE LIVES

LOS ANGELES, Cal.--An investiga
ton of the origin of box of poisoned
candy sent through the mails to two
young women clerks in a local grocery
store was taken up here by the secret
service department of the district at
torney's office
Miss Leona Carr turned the candy
over to the authorities, saying she
suspected poison, as she had been i'll a
week ago by drinking milk, which,
she said, her physician later found
contained wood alcohol.
Accompanying the candy, addressed
to Miss Carr and her fellow clerk
Miss Gertrude Cox, was a typewriter
note, which read:
with best wishes, Miss Carr, for
giving information kindly on the
phone, and Miss Cox's kind attention
to orders.
(Signed) "A CUSTOMER"
Chemical analysis, representatives
of the district attorney said, showed
the candy to contain deadly poison.

BILL KENWORTHY WILL
PLAY THIRD FOR BROWNS

Word has reached Honolulu that
Bill Kenworthy, who played here with
the All-Americans, will be stationed
at third base for the st. Louis Browns
next year. Fielder Jones, manager of
the team, announced that the former
Oakland player, who led the Coasters
in hitting, would be used at the diff
ficult corner. Kenworthy proved a
star in the Coast League, and also
played good ball in Honolulu. jim

The Braves are confident that they
will take the second game with the
st. Louis team, and thus end the bat
tie for the championship, while the St.
Louis team is equally confident that
the series will go to three games, with
the Saints on top at the finish. This
series has been of interest to the
fans, and if the second game is as
exciting as the first one the stock of
the players is going to go up some.
Brother Elmer is doubtful about
entering team in the cross country
run this year, and it is probable that
only Mills. Kamehameha and McKin-
ley will have runners in the long
grind. PunahCu will not have strong

present it looks like a fight betW cen
Mills and Kamehameha for place.

Bowling is rapidly becoming a ma

time there are more than 100 bowlers
interested in the game at the Y. M.

players in the various leagues, as
there are many more who visit the
alleys for the exercise and not for
competition.
Up to the present time there are
about "a managers and seven play

Much interest is being taken in the
match tomorrow at Moanalua when
Jack Neville and Harold Giffard will
met Alex Bell and Frank Halstead.
This foursome should bring ont some
good play and many look for the
lowering of the course records, both
for the nine and Is holes.
The course at Moanalua is in good
shape at present and IL the deluge Is
delayed the players will have but lit.

course in particular, with few extra
long holes, will not handicap the play
ers much on wet days.

William Shakespeare used to try his
hand at the royal and ancient pas
time let him hurry forth to his five
foot shelf and peruse what the bard
has written. Here are. a few express
sions which would lead one to believe
that William had something to do
with cow pasture pool:
Your tale, sir, would cure deaf
ness" Doesn't that remind you of a
score made when no one was round?
Another: Faith, thou hast some
crochets in thy head now" And he
also knew the sorrows of the bunker
when he wrote: He Is very valiant
trencher man." And then he writes:
A good mouth filling OATH" And
once again the bard said Over hill,
over dale, through brush, through
briers"@ And this proves that William
thought he was quite a natural player:
HE does it with better grace, but
do 1t more natural" ~.

SOLDIERS SERVE
FOR WAR ONLY
SeC'y Baker States That All
Will be Discharged When
Conflict is Over.

WASHINGTON. April 10. - All
men enlisting in the regular army
or the national guard in the present
emergency were assured in an an
nouncement by Sec'y Baker Thurs
day that they would be kept in SER
vice only for the period Of the war
The action followed a conference be
tween the secretary and Pres't Will
son. In effect this places on a war
time volunteer basis all Of the men
enlisted since the state of war was
declared. IL makes available a total
of 517,868 places in the enlisted
grades Of the two services to men
who wish 10 serve for the war only.
Mr.. Baker laid stress on the fact
that this action was contemplated
when the administration bill was
framed and was in no way 10 be con-
strued as a compromise plan, reach
ed as a result Of opposition to the
draft feature of the bill. In fact. the
secretary pointed out that the net
result OF the application Of the war
enlistment plan would be TO leave
the nation without an army of any
sort, regular or national guard, if
the war lasted beyond the enlist
ment terms of men now in those ser
vices The whole force would then
be discharged and the administra-
ton apparently expects that new
peace time military policy, founded
on universal service. will have been
enacted by that time. It has been
emphasized that the administration
war army bill is only an emergency
measure.
