VICE ABATEMENT
Bill, AMENDED,
NOW MEETS FAVOR
New Proposal is to Restrict
Section in Which Complaints
Against Houses Are Made

With Senator r. II. Makekau oI
Hawaii and Senator NJ. A. Mikaele o
Kauai its only opponents. the repor
of the Oahu select committee, recon-
mending an amendment whereby in
junction may be brought oply by own
ers of property within l00O'feet radiu:
of alleged disc-derly places. was
adopted by the senate this afternoon
Makekaus opposition to the recon-
mendation, and he was backed by Mi
kaele as one who seconded his mo
ton. was that IL contained the word
county" along with the words city
and county" He sought to take the
effect of the law from Hawaii and 9th
er islands than Oahu.
Makekau's motion to amend thus
was voted down Is to 2. Senator
Single presented the committee re-
port this afternoon and Senator Coke,
chairman of the health committee, sec
onded the motion TO accept. Senate
bill 10 PASSED second reading with the
adoption of the. report.
That this amendment would be ac-
ceptable to the citizens who have been
backing the abatement bill was indi-
Gated by one OF them, an attorney, this
morning.
However, the point is made from an
other source that such an amendment
must not be taken advantage of to al
low the establishment OF restricted
district on some remote piece of land,
far from residences. In other words,
the amendment must be operative as a
check on perhaps unwarranted prose
cution started by citizen, but not TAX
en- advantage of for the establishment
of a secluded .'redlight' district.
To meet this point it is said that the
present territorial laws making COM
mercial vice "a distinct offense will OPP
crate to stop such course.
The Oahu senatorial committee was
scheduled to hold a meeting some time
this afternoon to discuss the new plan.
In view of this development, it has
been decided, the Star-Bulletin is in
formed, to drop the idea of holding an
executive session of the committee to
hear from army officers, physicians
and others who might have decided
views to express.
Debate on 1.-THE question was held
for more than an hour yesterday after
noon following the adjournment OF the
regular senate meeting.

AN ACADEMY ATHLETE BECOMES
FAMOUS

We wish to extend our congratu-
lations TO the men Of the College De-
partment on the way they are taking
hold of athletics. Especially do
we wish to congratulate one Of the
stars Of the College team. who in
stead Of being born and reared in
the shadow of the Harvard Stadium
or the Yale Bowl. received his ath-
lctic training in the Academy De-
partmcnt
II was on Field Day, in the spring
Of 1916. that this young man, with
several other non-athletes, marched
upon the athletic field, with q bat
across his shoulder. in the manner
of Tyc Cobb. to play his first base
ball game. However. this game was
against the girls Of the Department
and, though strange il may seem. the
girls were victorious. Nevertheless,
il was on this day that the Depart
ment realized his skill with the bat,
and thus il predicted great things
in the future for the new athlete.
Not until he had been chosen man
agcr Of the College team had he met
with our expectations, and we are
now wondering If his athletic ability
will not make him a second Billy
Sunday when he graduates from
college. BOYS of the Department,
here's your chance. If you desire to
become great athletes. challenge the
girls for n game. Academy Girls.
