BRINzA DOWNS
Chinese TEAM
At BALL Yard
Blues From 32nd and 1st Inf.
Defeat CeIeStiaIS at Ath-
Ietic Park 6 to

Brinza, who was on the mound for
the 1st-32nd organization, or Blues,
was too much for the Chinese team
yesterday afternoon at Athletic Park
and as a result the Schofield aggre-
CATION won out by a score Of to 1.
A large crowd witnessed the game.
Luck zee and Hoon HI were on the
mound for the Chinese and both were
hit hard. The Chinese erred on
number of occasions, while the Blues
played rather tight ball. The Celes'
tials hit BrinZa in only three innings,
going hitIess for four innings.
Lieut.. Cohen, athletic officer OF the
32nd Infantry, said that the team
would not play under the name OF the
32nd Infantry in the series. The
morning paper takes a rap at the ath-
letic officer for this announcement.
At a meeting Of the athletic officers
at S0hofield it was decided that the
32nd-1st team would not be allowed
to play under the name of the S2nd
Infantry. Unless Col. Weigel and
Col. Durfee rule differently, the post
championship will be played with two
teams, one gathered from the LIST In
fantry and another gathered from the
32ndt Infantry.
split at Schofield
There has been some opposition to
the amalgamation of the two teams
in the regimental league, and al
though this organization has the sup
port of the two colonies of the reg1-
ments, there ought to be a hot fight
ON il this team is allowed to enter
as a regimental team.
The organization of the team from
two regiments Is an excellent tdea'
and, inasmuch as Col. Weigel and Col.
Durfee have given the consent to
play as one team, they will be seen
in action in Honolulu, but 1t is GER
tain that the name 1st-32nd Stars
will not be changed to the 32nd In
fantry.
Blues Score
The Blues scored their first run in
the third inning on an error by Chez,
Judd stole second. He then went to
third on single by Maddis, and came
home when Chez dropped a throw
from Moriyama. Chief walked in the
fourth. Boyle forced him and went
to second on an infield out. Boyle
scored when auckland hit for three
bases. Buck scored on an error by
Kai Luke. With Dunlap and Holcomb
on base, Boyle singled and the Blues
scored two more runs in the fifth.
The Chinese scored their only run
In the fifth when Kau Yen singled
and scored on O hard drive by Kai
Luke. Al single, an error and q sacri-
flee fly gave the Blues one run in the
ninth inning. =,
C Company Of the End Infantry de
feated the Hospital team, who won
last Sunday. The score was IA to 0 in
six innings. Duffy held the Medicos
to six hits, but nine errors on the
part of the sick jugglers, had the game
in the air. Odell heaved for the Hos
pital team and was lift hard through

The dance given Saturday night by
the Mutual Telephone ball team at
the Phoenix hall proved to be a real
success. An unusually large crowd
was on hand, showing to all, the large

merry-making was a great success
from a financial point of view.
Great credit must be given to Frank
May and Bill Inman for the eff

for the series, getting a total Of $50
for the three games. Ben Kaumahe-

Noble, Merrick and Franz had aver.
