10 HAWAIIAN YOUTHS
AIM AT WORLD TITLE

HONOLULU, T. H., Aug. STA.
P.)--Ten boys picked from the lead
ing polo and racing families OF the
Hawaiian Islands are being given q
ten-year course of training in the hope
that, at the end of their course in
1926 they will win the polo champion
ship of the world. Pete Harmon,
coach for the Hawaiian Polo and Rae
Ing Association, is directing the train
ing. which is now in its fourth year.
Harmon began instructing the boys
In the spring of 1916. lie went on the
theory that youngsters. with years OF
training together, will play better than
boys who take up the game after they
grow older. The fathers Of the boys
liked the idea and the grind OF de-
cade started.
Under the shadow Of Diamond Head
on the field Of Kapiolani Park. the
boys. divided into squads Of whites
and blues fight out their practice
battles. Last year they made their
first public appearance and their good
showing surprised their parents as
well as their trainer
Not only is Harmon planning to
bring the blue ribbon of polo TO Hn-
wall. but he Is planning TO keep II
there, for he has organized a sqtiad
Of boys younger than his first charges.
Ills first team is composed Of boys
now between twelve and fifteen years
Of age. Ills younger boys are under
twelve.
Wallace Waterhouse. son OF John
Waterhouse. president Of the Hawaiian
Sugar Planters association, Is consid-
cred the star Of the squads. Like his
team mates he has been trained IN
racing also. and, when he was ten he
rode his first winner, against the pick
OF the Island ponies. Since then he
has been up on five MINERS.
Harmon has made it a rule that boys
cannot come to the field when they
neglect their studies in school As q
result, their teachers say, the boys
stand high in their academic work and
are known for their fair play and good
craftsmanship.

CANTU ONLY AN APPONTEE
OF MEXICAN PRESIDENT

Nogales. Ariz-. Aug 4-Resenting
charges that Sonora. in preparing 70
aid in the armed invasion OF Lower
California. is violating the fuuda-
mental principle which caused her to
ssceds from the central government
and precipilate the recent revolution,
Gov. Flavio A. Borquez has issued a
statement as follows;
1t is true that the Sonora revolu-
ton was the result OF president Car
ranza's attempt TO send troops into
this state to displace a constitutional
governor. and, II possible, control BY
armed force a presidential election
However, Sonora IS a state elect
ing Its own chief executive under con-
stitutional guarantees. while Lower
California is a territory whose gov
error can be appointed or removed
at the pleasure OF the president.
When president Carranza attempt
ed to remove Gov Adolfo de Ia
Huerta and replace him with a mill
tary governor, he was guilty Of at
tempting an unconstitutional act OF
usurpauon against which the peo-
pie arose in just rebellion
On the other hand, Gov. Estaban
Cantu's refusal TO recognize the pres
ent provisional government Of Mex
leo IS equally unconstitutional in that
1t is an open act OF rebellion against
a legally constituted government with
no desire to usurp by military power
any Of the rights OF the citizens Of
Lower California"
