Residents Of Lihue
Treated to Thrills

Lihue was treated to some real
thrills Saturday afternoon, when the
Stoddard aeroplane with pilot Fern
and Machinist Curtis aboard, came
sailing up from the landing field OF
Waipouli.
When high over Lihue, in the clear,
blue sky, they put the machine
through a series of stunts that made
the inhabitants gasp. Tail spins
loop-the-loops, spirals and other hair
raising exhibitions were pulled off,
Then they sailed away and when over
Hanamaulu, they pulled the biggest
thriller of the day by going into a
spiral which lasted until, from Lihue,
it loked as though they had crashed
to the ground-but they didn't. Just
before they reached the ground they
fiattened out, and sailed away, just
like that

LAWS NEARLY LOSES SAMPAN

H. w. Laws, the roof man, nearly
lost his power sampan. by fire Satur-
day. The sampan was anchored at
Ahukini and was getting ready to
stand by in case of need by the ex-
pected seaplanes. In starting the en-
gine, the mechanic in charge flooded
the carburator and the gasoline ran
over the floor, then there was a back
fire or something, and before they
knew what had happered the whole
pit was afire. Quantities of water
was poured into the pit but had no
effect on the bla z.e AS luck would
have it, the Mikahala was near by,
and with the aid of a couple of fire ex-
tinguishers from that vessel the fire
was soon extinguished,

John Fernandez Will
Captain Lihue Ball Team

Much to the JOY of the Lihue base
ball fans it was announced after the
meeting of the Lihue ball club at the
County Building last Friday evening,
that John Fernandez would captain
the Lihues again this year. This was
gratifying news, as John is considered
one of the best team captains on the
Islands. He built up a team last year
that won the championship and went
through the season with only one
game lost besides being the only team
to defeat the Puns during their visit
last year
The officers elected to handle the
destenies of the Lihue club this year
were: w. H. Rice, Jr., president; c.
A. Baggot, secretary; G. II. Kuhlmann
treasurer; X. d. Moler, manager; John
Fernandez, captain.
John Fernandez announces that Ka
paia Store would give a silver cup to
the Lihue player with the highest
batting average at the end of the sea
son. Kapaia Store put up a cup last
year, which was won by Bon Okuda
who, by the way, returned to Lihue
from Honolulu last week and will be
in his position at short again this year

Soccer Season Closes
Without Championship

The Kauai Soccer League held a
meeting last Thursday evening at Ko-
loa to wind up the season. Sixteen
members were in attendance.
The first matter of business to come
up was in regard to the visit of the
soccer team from Oahu to play July
3rd and 4th. If arrangements can be
made with those in charge of the holi-
day program two picked teams from
Kauai will play the Oahu team on the
above dates. The captain of the four
teams in the league are the committee
in charge.
The recent games between Lihue
and McBryde teams to decide the
Kauai Soccer Championship brought
out much discussion. Referee Carmi
chael was upheld in his decision
awarding the second game to Nc
Bryde, and blanket approval was
given the decisions of the referees OF
all games of thesdhcuele
AS McBryde and Lihue each had a
game to their credit and the third
game resulted in tie it was agreed
that another game was needed to set
tie the championship. But as the
baseball season is about to open, and
Lihue had already arranged ball
game for the 9th of May, it was de-
cided to end the season without a
champion.
Mr.. Norman Watkins of the Ameri
can Factors, Ltd, who offered a cup
to the league has been thanked and re,
quested to hold the cup over until
next year.
The next soccer season is planned
TO open soon after the close of the 1920
baseball season. At that time it is
planned to start an educational cam
paign in order that the public may
learn the game and enjoy it all the
more.

iNTERSCHOlASTlc VOLlEY BALL

The volley ball games are coming
of fast and the matches are livelier
and closer as the finals draw near.
Lihue school has won the two first
matches of the four to be played be-
fore finals and has hopeful eye on
the championship.
The Lihue girls won from Koloa
girls 1874 to 1873 before the flu, and
Friday. Lihue boys outplayed Koloa
boys 1910 to 1876 in a very interest
Ing game. Mondays games with HUI
LEILA were lively and amusing. Huleia
was handicapped by lack of size but
the players were the gamest that ever
put the ball over tn net. The girls
score stood 1872 to 1877 and the boys
was the same. Lihue winning.
Next Monday, Kapaa will meet Lii
hue on Lihue's court and every one is
invited to come and see the fastest
and most hotly contested game yet.
Come and root for your favorite team.
Hanalei gave Kilauea a trouncing
last week in spirited match. The
score WAS 1855 to 1872 for the girls
1876 and 1914 for the boys.

Hawn. Board Says
Garry On" Good Work

Hawaii has just celebrated a cen
tennial and attention has been called
to the progress Of the one hundred
jcars that began with the arrival here
Of little group of American mission
ries who had come the long journey
from New England round South Amer
lea to give themselves for the well
Jcing of the people Of these islands.
The contury's end finds Hawaii no
'onger Sandwich Islands but America.
At the end of one century is always
the beginning of another. Hawaii
does not now need help from little
band from far away for we can help
ourselves. but if the new century's
American progress is to match up
with the last we must have the spirit
Of that little band of old and be ready

Hawaiian Board, as good starter for
he coming century is raising a fund
)f 100000. For fifty years this Board
has been carrying on the work of the
early missionaries here and with it's
many schools and churches is making
Christians and good Americans out of
many races.
Half Of the $4,000 is to be endow-
ment for the Hilo Boarding School,
Nohala Girls School, Maunaolu Semi

theChristian Workers Institution;

an endowment to take care of the two
oldest buildings of Honolulu whose
history is closely entwined with that

WARMING TO AUTOISTS

Kauai automobile drivers are ques-
tioning the advisabiity of attempting
to learn the gentle art of flying since
they have noticed that one expert
aviator cannot master a Ford
1t seems quite plausible that men,
like birds, are of two classes-air and
land.
or course it is possible that Mr..
Fern may be able to drive another
kind of land car, or again he may have
merely been trying to do a fallen.leaf
In any event, however, we may say
that he has way of driving a Ford
which is quite novel for Kauai,

SEA AND LAND
PLANES FLY FROM
OAHU To kauai

Completing the longest nonstop
over water fight ever made in the
Hawaiian Islands, two army seaplanes
in command of Major John Curry, de-
partment air officer. and the Stod
dard landplane aloha Hawaii"
piloted by Charles Fern, arrived over
Kauai at $3.50 o'clock Saturday morn
ing, q distance of 100 miles. After
circling around for several minutes
the seaplanes descended and alishted
In Hanamaulu bay where everything
had previously been made ready for
their reception by members of the
American Legion, while the Stoddard
plane sailed over to Waipouli where a
nice landing was made.
In seaplane 215 were Major
John Curry and Lieut.. Lester Matt
land, as alternate pilot, with Corporal
Black, mechanic, while in seaplane
212 were Lieutenants Ralph Wooten
and John Landfall, alternate pilots
with Lieut. Gown radio officer. In the
Stoddard landplane were Chares Fern,
pilot, and mechanic Curtis.
1t was not known on Kauai, before
the radio was received that they were
starting, that the Stoddard landplane
was making the trip, and general
satisfaction was expressed at the
news.
Fern states that they expect to re-
main on Kauai three or four weeks
and that everybody desiring to fly will
be given the oportunity.
Finest Field In the Territory. --
Pilot Fern Is enthusiastic over Wal
pouii as an aviation field. He states
that it is the best field for this pur-
pose that he has seen in the Territory.
In order that the plantation people
might have an opportunity to see the
army planes, Major Curry consented
to send one of the planes up Sunday
morning. Accordingly, at $3.50 Lieut..
Maitland took plane PIP up for two
flights, much to the delight and joy Of
the large attendance, most of whom
had never seen an airship before.
Are Coming Often
The army planes returned to their
base at Luke Field, Oahu this morn
ing. Before departing Major Curry
stated that they would make more or
less regular trip to Kauai in future,
the next visit will be in about three
weeks, and as we have such an excel
lent landing field at Waipouli, the
future visits will be made in Havaland
land planes.
officers and men have been royalty
entertained while here and look for
ward with pleasure to their next visit.
Left this Morning
The two army seaplanes departed for
their base at Luke Field at 7:12 this
morning. At 9 o'clock Commander P.
L. Rice. of Kauai Post, American Leg
ion. received a radio from Major Curry
announcing thier safe arrival at Pearl
Harbor, after a somewhat hazy pas
sage.

Special Meeting
Chamber of Commerce

AS announced, the special meeting
of the Kauai Chamber Of Commerce
for the purpose of taking up the mat
( ter of the Hawaiian Rehabilitat. on
scneme, met Saturday evening with a
/ fair representation from the different
! parts of the Island present.
After quite a bit of discussion,
which did not seem to get any where,
1t was voted that the chair appoint a
committee of three to draft a resolu-
tion. Presidnt Broadbent appointed
Messrs. Brandt, Cheatham and A.
horner, Jr. as the committee. and a
recess was taken while the commit
Tee drafted the resolution. The
resolution follows:
nEREAS, That is now before the
Congress OF the United States of
America a bill to amend the Organic
ACT of the Territory of Hawaii as ap-
p.ymg to the disposition and home
steaulng OF Hawaiian Territorial
lands, and in connection therein there
is provision for the rehabilitation of
the hawaiian people:
THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED,
oy the Kauai Chamber of Commerce
IN a special meeting this Sth day OF
May, 1920, he'd for the purpose CT dis
cussing the merus of and objections
~ sald Dill,
IsI, That we wish to emphatically
state that homesteadlng upon the Is
land OF Kauai has been a decided sue
cess, thereby having established
desirable class of small land-owning
citizens; and we believe that proper
method Of homesteading other Govern
ment lands Is the best procedure to
Americanize these Islands:
End. That we believe all leases of
Government lands should be restrict
ed TO American citizens; and in case
OF corporation, that a majority Of the
corporation shares should be owned
Dy American citizens.
3rd. That we believe all leases of
highly cultivated lands should be sold
ut public auction, the rentals to be
upon crop basis, the Territory re-
ceiving the value of a certain per cent
of the gross crops produced, along the
same lines as similar leases of private
lands are let in the Territory.
4th. That We are heartily in favor
of some measure through which the
rehabilitation Of the Hawaiian people
can be brought about, but believe that
the proposed plan is impractical and
would fail of accomplishing it's pur-
ported intent.
5th. That we hereby request that
the Congress of the United States de-
lay present action on this bill and ap-
point Commission to proceed to this
Territory and in conference with rep
resentatives of the Hawaiian peope
| formulate a practical and feasible
plan for such rehabilitation.
| 9Th. And that copies of these re-
solutions be sent forthwith to the
Governor of Hawaii, the Delegate to
Congress, the Chairman of the Com
mittee on Territories of the House of
Representatives, the Chairman of the
Committee on Territories Of the Sen
ate and to the Secreary of the Inter-
! ior.
