and the ball rolled through a hole
under the fence. and the third sacker
came all the way home.
The fans are still talking about the
triple play which gave the Filipinos
the victory over the Chinese at Moiii
iii Field on Sunday. There were more
than 1000 people in the stands when

surely showed their appreciation by
giving the Lets Go" crowd a big
hand.
Jimmy Aylett is surely doing some

plate at Moiliili Field. Very few
kicks have been registered against
him throughout the Commercial
League season.

looks like a promising player. He is
hustling all the time, and with AT
fonso and Crane in the game, the
team looks a heap better.

Advertiser on Sunday, had a lot Of
stuff on the ball, and ought to i'm

merly Of the Braves. Bento was the
leading hitter of the day, while Ross

Je Silva was the big star in the
game Of the world on last week. He
was the big star pitcher and every
time man came to bat he might just

the game Z to 0. Joe Silva was the
big star with the bat, The other
pitcher could not put the ball past the
plate, and Joe hit four home runs,
and could have made more if he had
been to bat more times. One time
when he was pitching he let the bat
ter have six strikes, but do you think
he could hit it? No, he could not hit
the curves of Joe Silva, the big star
of the game,-[Submitted.]
