Athletic Officer Says That Arrangements Have Been Sasac
tory in OAHU Servce-Was Not Notified of Any Change and
States That He Had No knowledge of Such Move Until This
Morning-May Amalgamate But 0ahu-Servce Will Be First

Sometime ago It was announced
that the 25th Infantry and 32nd In
fantry teams would begin a series OF
games in the Honolulu League. They
didn't. Sometime ago it was report
ed that Rogan and Fagin would play
for one Of the teams in the Honolulu
League They didn't. Now comes
the announcement that the S2nd In
fantry and 1st Infantry players would
play in the Honolulu League. For
the answer-see Grimes Fairy Tales.
Lieut. Cohen. vice-president Of the
Oahu-Service League and athletic Of
ficer of the 32nd Infantry, said this
morning that there was nothing TO
it. He said that he had not been mo-
tilted Of any arrangements, and fur
thermore said that the 32nd Infantry
players would not play in that league.
Favor Oahu-Servlce
1t is known that the players on the
32nd Infantry team and those on the
LIST Infantry team were satisfied with
in the Oahu-Service
League, and if Sratton, Buckland,
Rails, Judd. Maddis and others were
asked they would also make this
statement.
1t stands to reason that if the 32nd
Infantry players and LIST Infantry play
ers were going to play in an organ
lied league they would first see
the league which they had been play
ing in regarding any tearms which

.sWiH the champions OF Manila be
able to down one OF the fastest teams
IN Honolulu?" is a question that Is
being asked around the city since the
announcement was made that the
champions would play here on Sunday
81 Moiliil with the Fort Ruger Giants.
No more definite news can be learn
I'd. but inasmuch as the wireless mes
sage said champions, q strong team Is
expected. II will be remembered that
aSpeeder" Rogan at one time played
in Manila, and other stars have come
10 Honolulu from that league.
CUMMINGS, who has been doing the

defeated, hut 1t is expected that he
viii be given real test when the boys

stewart has had his men out for prac-
tise this week, and will be ready
when the gong sounds on Sunday:

One OF the local bali fans who. has
watched the games in Manila, says
that there is one pitcher in the army
who would given Rogan and Crumpler
4 rood race for honors, and it may be
possible that he is on the champion
team. II is to be hoped that they have
a real aggregation to 90 against the
Ringers. as Manager Stewart will have
q strong squad.
The management OF the oahu-Ser'
vice League had an opportunity to
raise the prices for this game, mas
much as it vas a visiting team play
ing here, but after finding out the
necessary expenses, decided that with
q good crowd out to the game
they would give the fans the benefit
OF the doubIeheader at the same price.
In justice to the oahu.seryice Leagus
It might be said that this movement
is gSing to boost the game here.

that this arrangement could be put
