In Tug O'War

TUG O. war contests will be staged
at night at Moiliili park and i!
not there probably at the skat
ing rink on Fort street in the very
near future, says William Miles, ath-
letic promoter and one of the mana
gers of the above mentioned field.
I'VE have several teams lined up, "
declared Mr.. Miles. land among them
are the old Pacifics, who have been the
island champions in this sport for Is
years anyway. They are now managed
by George Harris and he will enter
them in the events to be staged. The
last time this famous old team appear
ed was in the armory where they won
from the 25th Infantry.
The plan at present is to have a
series of pulls between local teams
and another between service teams
and then to match the winners in
each in a final for the territorial
championship.
"Other local teams that will prob.
ably enter the events will be from the
Honolulu Iron Works and the Ha.
waiian Dredging company. In these
contests trophies as we'll as cash

FAMOUS CRIcKETER ....
PAYS SHORT VISIT

Henry G. Pearse, famous cricket
player, known as a star in England,
Philadelphia and Australia, arrived in
Honolulu this morning on ship from
a Canadian port for brief visit. He
was accompanied by E. L. H. Rum
bold of Baltimore.
The two are on their way to Aus
tralia on business and will later visit
China and Japan before returning to
the United States. Pearse has
played cricket in many parts OF the
world and was on the Philadelphia

tralian club some years ago.
There's no cricket being played
anywhere now EXCEPT behind the
trenches in France" he said. 81 have

TEAMS IN MIDGET
FOOTBALL SERIES

The Iolani coach, r. o. Humphrey.
is now taking up the matter of form.
ing a midget league among the high
and grammar schools Of the city which
have teams. The coaches of the Pu-
nahou Blues and Bluffs, the captain
OF the Kaahumanu grammar team, and
the Mckinley Thirds coach have sig
nified their hearty Endorsement OF
Humphreys scheme. A league Of at
least six teams can be formed, to
play off schedule before the end OF
football season, using some of these
games as curtain-raisers for the In,
terscholastic league games.
The first of these contests has al.
ready been arranged for, and the Nc.
Kinley Thirds will hook up with the
Punahou Bluffs next Saturday, play.
ing In the morning on Punahou's field.
The schools who can furnish light
teams for such a league should com.
nunicate with Humphrey, telephone

MILITARY SCHOOL
IS ASPIRANT FOR
GRIDIRON HONORS
Kaimuki Institution for First
Time in Its History DeveI-
ops Promising Squad

That, they be admitted into the inter.
scholastic football series and be allow.
ed to compete for the championship in
in spite of their late request, is the
hope of the Honolulu Military acad-
envy of Kaimuki. which has organized
football team that in practise games
looms up promising. Representatives
Of the team are appealing to the lea
que as whole and to individuals of
the different schools to grant them
this privilege.
In practise game with the McKin.
ley high school last week the military
academy team stepped into promi-
nence in football virtually for the first
time in its history. The success of
the eleven in the contest with McKin-
ley was such that Coach Whitcomb Of
the Mckinley team urged that they
play further games with interscholas-
tic teams, and the members of the
team decided that it was high time
they were entering the interscholastic
series.
Since its beginning several years
back, the military academy has played
football, but has never been able to
develop teams which were equal to tha
contests in the series for the inter
scholastic championship. Their teams
have played with the second teams Of
other high schools, but not with the
first teams except in practise games.
This year F. W. Darneli, a graduate
of the University of Washington, who
played on three of Dobies' widely
known championship elevens, has tax
en- the squad of about 20 men in
charge, and in a short time has devel
oped strong team.
Captain Searle leads the team from
half back while his brother is quarter.
Breckenridge at full and Fredericks
at the other half complete the back
field.
Men playing in the line are the Dunn
brothers at the two ends, Clinton and
Heen for the ends, Campbell, Duval.
Wedemann for tackles, Hansen and
Hogg for guards, and Deverill for CEN
ter. About 90 are out in all and the
team has now been practicing for
about H. days.

COASTLEAGUE
IN EXCITING
BALL CONTEST
Struggle for First Place is Co.
ing on Between Angels and
San Francisco

SAN FRANCISCO. Cal, Oct. O.
The struggle for first place in the
Pacific Coast baseball league con
tinues so close between the clubs
of San Francisco and Los Angeles
that any slip on the part of the san
Franciscans will result in the loss
Of the lead of the bay city players.
In the series played between these
two teams last week, the Angels took
the extra game thus lessening the
small gap between them by six points.
Salt Lake City which. up TO few
weeks ago, was equally in the running
for first honors has been gradually
slipping back and appears to have
about found its level for the time
being The series II played last week
against Oakland was a disastrous one,
the Salt Lakers being able to win
only one of the seven games played.
Portland, leading the teams in the
second division. started the week only
a short distance behind Salt Lake City
and Manager McCredie can be count
ed on to make a determined effort
to break into the upper three.

week, only to come back the next
and play like champions, so rival man.
ayers never can tell what is in store
for them.
For the time being, interest in the
race of the Pacific coast baseball
league is entirely overshadowed by
the big worlds series being played
between the New York Nationals and
the Chicago Americans. What batting
has been done here has been prac
tically on an even basis although the
popular sympathy may perhaps lean
slightly on the side Of the Windy
City players.
Such newspapers as make use of
the electric score board are popular
meccas during play and the streets
are kept from being entirely blocked
to traffic only through the activities
Of the police.
The sympathies of the crowd may
readily be judged by the outward and
visible signs they manifest when one
side or the other makes good or a
bad play. 3 ~ - IA.

VOLCANO-HILO
RACE WILL Be
RUN DOWN HILL
Committee Reaches Decision
Following Letter From
Joe StiCkney

With the assurance Of several teams
OF runners from Honolulu, and the
probability OF at least three teams
from Hilo, it seems safe to assume,
even at this early date. that the pro-
posed Volcano relay race will prove a
success from its very inception. Final
plans are now practically completed
and the event will be run from the
edge OF the crater to Mooheau park,
says the Hlo Tribune,
The direction of the race has been
q subject OF considerable discussion.
From the outset the committee decid-
ed in favor Of the run from Hilo to
the Volcano, being OF the opinion that
the public would be more interested in
seeing one member of each team start
at Mooheau park than in waiting for
the finish; also believing that the rum
ners themselves would prefer the run
to the Volcano. Subsequent discussion
elected the fact that many of the d.
rectors of the board of trade, particu-
larly David Forbes. John 7. Moir and
Chairman Wears, were decidedly in
favor of the down hill run, and after
hearing from Secretary j. w. BainS.
these members, together with V. L.
Stevenson, were invited to be present
at q meeting of the race committee on
Wednesday last to reconsider the mat
ter.
When stickney Wrote.
The members of the race. committee
were not convinced, however, until
Thursday last when a letter was re-
ceiVed from J. B. Stickney, OF the 4.
A. u. in Honolulu. Stickney was de-
cidedly in favor of the down grade,
expressed his eagerness to enter
team, and further stated that he could
probably induce couple of teams to
enter from the different nationalities

WRECKERS TO
PLAY SUNDAY

The 18th Infantry Wreckers will
meet the Coast Defense in a fourth
game at Moiliili on Sunday afternoon
in baseball program which has been
arranged for the benefit of the Red
Cross. These teams will play the Sec
ond game while the LIST 32nd team
will meet the 9Th Field Artillery in
the first game.
Playing at Schofield barracks last
Sunday in their third game, the
Wreckers defeated the Coast Defense
iE the second of a series of three
games, the first two of which were
played at Moiliil. Although this de-
termines their superiority, there re-
mains the feeling that with Crumpler
pitching the Coast Defense will be able
to win from the 25th ir another game.

Three men who are figuring prom
inently in the worlds champion base
ball series that is now in progress.
They are, on the left, Ray Schalk, star
catcher OF the Chicago White Sox.
He is referred to as the greatest
backstop in the national game" He
scored the run that won the 1917 pen
nant for Chicago.
In the middle is Harry Memo" Lie
bold, the smallest outfelder in the
major leagues. Liebold is a great
fielder and a good hitter, but is not
quite strong enough to run Felsch,
Jackson or John Collins out of a
regular job. Still, he has played this
season and has done a lot to help
the Sox toward the American League
flag. Liebold was formerly with
Cleveland and was about to be sent
to the minors when Manager Rowland
decided he would fit into the Sox ma
chine and took him at the waiver
price. He has proved his ability a
lot since the start.
On the right is Art Fletcher. bril-
liant fielder and dangerous hitter,
with an instructive baseball brain that
makes him one of the most important
coss in the machine. He is shortstop
of the New York Giants and is counted
upon to be an important factor in the
National League champions play in
the worlds series. Fletcher covers
world of ground and has a great
pair OF hands and splendid arm. He
Is not great hitter, but he maintains
fair average and is apt to break
up a game at any time.

Why Athletics

- frederick w. RUBEN, secretary.

- frederick w. RUBEN, secretary
treasurer Of the Amateur Athletic
Union and well known by local
followers of swimming, recently ex-
pressed himself as strongly in favor
of the steady continuance of athletics
and of championship contests, accord
ing to his reported statement on the
mainland.
Il cannot see any reason why
we should stop holding games and
championships as WE'LL" said Mr..
Ruben Athletic contests pro-
vide the incentive for young pen
to keep themselves fit. If there
are no championships in sight our
athletes will not show the same
determination in their training.
Here at A. A. U. headquarters we
know this to be fact, because be.
fore it was definitely decided to
hold the metropolitan and national
championship meetings we receiV-
ed many inquiries about the
sports, the writer's stating that
unless the championships were
held they would not bother getting
into condition for the summer
campaign.
"Of course much will depend
upon whether the ar 'ories are
available for indoor athletic meets.
There is every reason to believe
now that conditions in this respect
will be the same as in former
years."

Owing to the fact that every runner
in Hilo is liable to be called to the
front when the selective draft com.
mittee commences it's work, it is some
what difficult to set about the forma'
ton Of teams, but II is practically Ger.
tain that A. p Helbush will enter a
team of local lads, for he already has
the requisite number, including substi-
tutes, in training. The national guard
may also enter a team.
All Are Enthusiastic.
Athletic officer Desha is enthusiast
tic on the subject but here, also, the
fact that all concerned may be called
upon for the training camp makes mat
tiers uncertain. The v. M. ]. boys are
interested IN the proposal and are dis
cussing the selection Of a team to rep
resent the institute. Long before the
time set for the race january 9Th,
1879, it is confidently expected that at
least three teams of Hilo lads will be
in full training, and ii is. hoped that
the plantation runners will cooperate
and compete against the town boys.
The objective of the race is to help
sport on Hawaii, to boost Hilo, and to
provide additional entertainment to
the public, free Of all cost. 1t is esti-
mated that approximately $500 will be
required to meet the necessary ex.
penses, but this sum is to be raised by
public subscription. ]. w. Bains is
the treasurer for the committee and
will be pleased to accept subscriptions
from all who care to help the good
work along.
