Joe Stckney Lines Up Organization for Long Distance Event.

Discuss Plans for the Staging OF This Big Athletic Event

Honolulu will send at least three
teams to Hile for the Volcano Mara
thOn run II it is staged ON New Years
day. A Pan-Pacific team will make
the trip to-Hilo, being the first from
Honolulu to enroll for the long dis
lance event.
Mills school will without doubt have
a tam in the big event and athletes
from Kamehameha are working on
plan to send a team to the Crescent
City. There is hardly doubt but that
ten teams can be secured from Oahu
for the big event.
Much Interest in Race
The plan to stage relay race from
Hilo to Volcano, carrying a message
from Father Neptune to Madame Pele
has created much interest in Honolulu.
Many athletes are planning on paruci
pating, and if the proper arrangements
can be made a large number or dis
lance men are certain Of making the
trip.
Honolulu is ready to go ahead on a
big campaign to secure teams as soon
as it is found out just exactly how
much it will cost the teams for trans
portation. Hilo will naturally do heT
share in entertaining the boys, and II
the Honolulu committee can arrive al
a certain figure, Iork can be started
at once.
AS soon as it is learned what the
cost for each team will amount to a
meeting will be called and representa-
tives from all the clubs, civic organi
cations and schools will be invited tc
attend. Representatives from the
various regiments will be asked tc
attend. Whether or not teams will be
! accepted from each company or from
regiments is a question which viii
