the immediate future. and upon his re-
turn will have something to say re.
garding the tournament which will be
held in Honolulu in February
1t is hoped that he will be able to
tennis stars, who will help the game
here. 1t is not thought that Miss
Bjurstedt or Miss Brown will come
here, but there has been a rumor that
Miss Helen Baker. the champion of
the Pacific Coast, may come. Should
the local association be able to secure
Miss Baker and one other good player
then prospects will be bright for a
good tournament
The local feminine players would
naturally have a chance TO show their
real worth against such stars. and if
Nat Brown, Roland Roberts or some
Of the other stars are secured the
tourney should be one of interest.
Castle, Eklund, Hoogs and other local
stars would be able to give these
players an interesting match. and with
Miss Male Wears, Mrs. Frederick
Schafer and Mrs. Coulter in the tour
ney. the mainland feminine racquet
wielders would not have a walkaway.
Tennis enthusiasts will be waiting for
word from Mr.. Castle as to which

TO ENTER TEAM
IN VOLCANO RUN
Runners Will Compete in VOL
Cano Run; More Than 20
Runners Held Trials

The StarBulletin will enter a team
in the Volcano to Hilo relay race,
which will be staged On Jan. Z. Yes
terday morning at Fort Shatter more
than 20 runners held tryout for the
team, running a distance OF more than
five miles out the Kamehameha road.
The Bulletin team will be the
fourth team from Honolulu entered Ill
the big race The Mills School team
is already in Hilo, the Japanese team
will leave on Wednesday and the Pan
Pacific and Star-Buiietin teams will
leave On Saturday afternoon.
Good Time Made
J. J. Quinn, who has charge of the
team, took the runners over the long
grind yesterday morning and six of the
runners finished close together in fast
time Shannon and Wade were not
out yesterday morning, but a special
tryout will be held on Thursday after
noon at 4:30, and these runners will
be given a chance to show what they
can do. "
Benefited led tie field home for the
five miles yesterday, winning from
Souza by a yard. Both runners sprint
ed to the finish line, showing that
they have lots in reserve. Benefited
is a strong runner, his long strides
carrying him over the ground in good
fashion, while Souza is little runner,
but has plenty of endurance.
Quinn Paced Them
Henderson came in third, close up,
leading McCallum by two yards, with
Ware and Quinn close behind. Quinn
paced the runners for most of the dis
tance and would naturally have made
better time. Allen was another run
ner who made good showing in the
trials yesterday.
Not a runner dropped out of the
race Several of them stopped for a
moment along the way, but every one
of the men came home. There are
a number Of good runners who failed
to finish with the first seven, and
with more experience ought to be able
to show something.
Trial Thursday
The trials on Thursday will bring
the runners together once more, and

a chance to run with the squad. Wade
Is known to be a star for mile and
has been covering the five miles in
fast time.
AS yet no one of the Honolulu teams
is a favorite. The Japanese are
picked by many to come home in the
lead, while the Pan-Pacific followers
are confident that this squad will win
out. Mills has a number of stars on
the,team, and is being picked by man7
to win. The Hilo sport lovers can see
nothing but victory for one of the
Hilo teams. .-.
Baseball and Football
There will be plenty of athletics at
Hilo On Jan. 6 and Z. The Town Team
will meet the Hilo football squad on
Sunday, and Melim's organization Is
picked to win. Then. the baseball
fans will have an opportunity to see
something worth while, as the Tax
Officials will play the County Officials
on Monday at 1870. following the Vol.
cano Run. The game will be played
for the benefit of the Red Cross.

.GRIDIRON Teams
WILL FIGHT FOR
HONOR TOMORROW
Y. M. c. A. Meets 32nd Inf. al
SchofieId in Championship
Clash at 3 O'Clock

Everything is set for the champion
ship football game at Schofield to-
morrow. when the Y. NJ. c. A. and
32nd Infantry fight it out for the hon
ors OF Hawaii A large delegation
will 60 to Schofield from Honolulu %
morrow afternoon. and one Of the
largest crowds of the year is expected
to be on hand when the whistle Is
sounded at o'clock.
Harry Melim has announced that he
will not play his Town Team against
the 1st Infantry tomorrow, as a num-
Der of his men have been injured
This would have been a good contest
and it is unfortunate that the team
couldn't make the trip.
The Baby Regiment team will pin
their hopes on stopping Davis in the
gridiron tilt tomorrow, and the Y. M.
c. A. team will meet this by forming
a defense against Rasquin and Fleisch-
mann. Two Of the best players On
the 32nd Infantry will be out of the
game, but Coach Bracken will have a
number Of good substitutes on hand
to send in.
~ The 32nd Infantry team will be we'll
balanced, and looking over the team
one finds no weak spots. If the Y. NJ.
c. A. can get the full strength in the
game Coach Bracken's contingent will
have to play real ball to win. Whit
comb, Kampert, Won Holt, Albrecht,
McCombs, Hedrick and Baugh will be
seen in action with the old backfield.
Pammel has been playing good foot
ball this year, and while the Baby
Regiment mentor is planning to stop
Davis he will have his hands full with
little Pammel. The little back has
played good ball this year, and with
Brunswick has gained much ground
through the line.
The game tomorrow should bring
out some good play, and it Is expected
that all Schofield will be on hand to
watch the two teams fight it out for
the honors of Oahu. Should the 32rd
Infantry win the Town Team may
challenge the post players. At any
rate, whichever team wins, 1t should
not be walkaway. -.

TROOP XVIII WINS
FOOTBALL CONTEST

Troop XVIII defeated VIII at Ma.
kiki field yesterday afternoon by an
overwhelming score.
The game was fast and furious
throughout, the long end runs of Pea
nuts Leal and Joe Thurston being the
features Of the game. The heavier
line of Troop XVIII and the teamwork
accounts for the score of 35 to Z. A
