A Close-Up on the HeiSmdn Glide

NHE mems feet do not leave the ground and they take
sort of dance step. This is done with great speed
however, and has of the old style jump
There are four different positions in the Heisman
glide The team lines up in the old Heisman style, the
center in front and the nemen yard behind the ball.
The backcd is in line behind the center, and the team
forms the letter "T."
All Of the players stand with their hands their
knees until the signal is given Then when the quarter
back ycls hike" they shift, rather glide.
The first position is with both feet the ground. II
they glide to the left the right leg is crossed in front Of
the left That's the second position. Pivoting the
right foot the left is brought around into the third posi-
tion AS soon the left foot STOP the left
hand is placed on the ground and this is the fourth.
From that position the play is started and although the
men go through the motions with great speed they
to a complete stop before the ball has been passed.
! watched the glide closely for almost half hour
ana In that time the only beat the ball the
quarterback. This because giving the signals
knew what was coming and anticipated the play. Hes-
man will correct this fault in a very short time.
Thus it can be seen that Penn will pull some
stuff this 1t is doubtful if the glide will be used
every play but it will be the nucleus around which
the attack will be built As for tho defense the old
Pennsylvania system will continue This is the best and
has proved its worth year after year.

kahuIui Worked Up
Over Water Scarcity
Residents Of Seaport Showing De-
cided Signs Of Being Peeyed--
Talk OF Buying Bonds To Get Re-
lief Situation Really Bad

Residents of Kahului are complain
ing more bitterly than ever, if posi-
Bile, over the chronic water shortage
in the seaport town. They say they
thought they had about got used to
getting up in the middle of the night
to take their baths, flush out their
toilets and sprinkle the lawns, but
that now sometimes they can't even
get water in the night when the Wal
luku folk are supposed to have let
loose of the supply for a few hours.
The Kahului Railroad hasn't water
enough to water it's steam horses any
more, it is said, and has to send them
up the line-to Paia, and other points
to give them drink; and when a ship
is in port human beings consider
themselves lucky to get a drink them.
selves. (And they can't get a drink
on the ships any more, either) Fur
thermorc the new fair grounds have
been supplied from the dinky Kalfu-
lui water pipes, SO there really isn't
enough water any more to boil coffee.
These are a sample of the COM
plants which are coming from the wa
terfront. Moreover they suspect, and
openly charge, that the Wailuku wa
Kahului in order to keep the Waikiki
folks in good humor.
Some of these complaints were laid
before the supervisors on Wednesday
by Superintendent William Walsh, of
the Railroad Company, and as a T.
suit of his representations the board
agreed to lay an extension of Pinch
line to the wharves to more adequate
L. IL.
the possibility of subscribing for the
$25,000 worth Of bonds appropriated
by the last legislature for relieving
Kahului is being discussed. The fact
that the proposed sale of territorial
bonds this spring has been postponed
till next fall on account of the condi-
tion of the eastern money market is
the cause of this talk. 1t seems likely
that the bonds may be bought locally
provided the Governor will authorize
such sale.

Perreira Acquitted
OF Killing Child
Jury Debates For Hour Before Re-
turning Verdict May Now Be
Charged With Driving Car Without
License

The jury in the casesof John Per
reira, of Kaupakalua, charged with
manslaughter in having been the driv-
er of an automobile which struck and
killed little Japanese child at Paia
last June, brought in a verdict of not
guilty last Monday morning. The case
had been on trial since the previous
Friday. The jury was out little over
an hour.
The feature of the case most en-
phasized in the trial was the fact that
Perreira, at the time of the accident,
was driving the car without having a
Chauffeur's license to drive. 1t is be-
lieved that he may now be prosecuted
on this charge.
The defendant was represented at
the trial by Attorney Enos Vincent
while County Attorney Bevins handled
the case for the prosecution.

Teacher From Coast
Dies Here In Hospital

Miss Mabel Ann Minthorn, a teach
er in the Wailuku Public School died
about midnight last Saturday night in
the Malulani hospital, where she had
been seriously i'll for nearly a month
prior to her death. Her death was
due to an organic trouble from which
she had long been suffering. She was
80 years of age and native of Cali
fornia.
The body was shipped to Honolulu
on Wednesday evening to be later
shipped to Los Angeles for burial.
Her parents reside in that city.
Miss Minthorn came to the Islands
in 1917 and taught until this year in
Hawaii. During the few months she
had been on Maui she had made quite
a circle of friends who learned of her
death with much regret. At the Wal
luku Union church on Tuesday even
ing, impressive memorial services
were held, the floral tributes being
very beautiful
Comparatively little is known about
the deceased teacher here, but it is
known that besides her parents she
is survived by a brother in Honduras
and by sister who is teaching in the
o high school of Fresno, Cal.

Peculiar Case In Circuit COurt-Jap-
aneSe Girl Put In Hard Position OF
Repudiating Husband Or leopard
izing Parents

a kidnapping case OF unusual com
DlcXjty has been on trial practically
all this week in the second circuit
court and the present outlook is that
il may not be finished this week. The
defendants in the case are +. Hiroba-
"a, Sanzo Taguchi, Sankichi Taguchi
and Mrs. Sal TaguChi They are
charged with having kidnapped Mrs.
SanO Matsuura from her husband
nearly a year ago. The alleged victim
# the kidnapping is the daughter of
5arzO and Mrs. Taguchi.
The case arises out of a runaway
marriage in which Sanzo Taguchi, of
Haiku, married Matsuura. an automo-
bile driver Of KokomO without her
parents consent. After trying in vain
o have the marriage annulled, the
parents are charged with having driv-
en- to the daughters new home while
her husband was away and forcibly
taken her back to the Taguchi roof
tree.
\ large number of witnesses have
been examined and the evidence is
contradictory. The prosecution is at
empting TO prove that the girl is a
victim in two ways-Of being taken
from her husband, whom she wishes
to live with, and of the fear that if
she admits this now she will be the
cause of sending her parents to prison
on the kidnapping charge.
The case may not be submitted to
the jury before tomorrow.

Chamber Plans To
Have United Maui
Commerce Body will Try To Unite All
Interests Before Next Legislature
COMMITTEE To Work With Super
viSOrS On Legislation

Cooperation for Maui was the key
note of the discussion by the members
Of the chamber OF commerce yester-
day afternoon, of the matters to be
brought before the special session of
the legislature which is presumably to
be held within the next few months.
AS a result of this discussion the
committee on legi iation, consisting of
II. b. Penhallow, E. r. Bevins and r.
A. Wadsworth was instructed to not
only get the various matters in which
The chamber is interested in shape for
proper presentation to the law makers
bur to confer with the board of super
visOrs and other bodies in order that
the measures to be presented from
Maui may be thoroughly discussed
and understood and a solid front pre-
sented in backing them up.
1t was the expressed hope of the
chamber that when the legislature
meets, Maui will be ready, will know
just what she wants, and that the bills
embodying these wants will be ready
for introduction with the opening of
the session.
Invites Ideas And Suggestions
For the reason that he is leaving in
a few weeks for an extended triS to
the Coast, d. II. Case, who had been
chairman of the legislative committee
resigned and the chairmanship was
turned over to Mr.. Penhallow
The committee wishes it understood
that it will welcome all the aid and
suggestions which it can get from in
dividuals or organizations. 1t is known
that the WOman's Club is contemplat
ing asking for a number of new laws
and members of the committee init
mated that they would be more than
pleasecpto work with the ladies in
connection.
II is planned to hold meetings
frequently at which progress may be
reported and new ideas suggested.
1t is the intention to ask for the
endorsement by the board of super
visors for all measures drafted by the
chamber and the chamber hopes thai
it may be able to lend its support tC
bills of the supervisors in order thai
they may go down to Honolulu a!
Maui bills in the fullest possible sense
1t was also suggested that a small
| lobby of Maui boosters be arranged fol
to 20 to Honolulu during the session
to help with the work of keeping
Maufs interests to the fore.

May Ask For Better
Boat Than Claudine
Chamber Of Commerce Thinks Old
Time Vessel Inadequate Would
Also Have Late SailingS And Would
Cut Out Lahaina

Maui is going to ask the Inter-Isldnd
Company for another and larger boat
20 replace the Claudine. Also the re-
mmendatiOn is to be made that the
Claudine or her successor be put on
q different schedule on the Saturday
run, leaving Kahului at 10 o'clock Sat
utday night for Honolulu instead of at
o'clock the present schedule. A
lurther change in schedule will also
probably be suggested that the run
ut OF Honolulu be at 10 o'clock at
night instead of at ) o'clock as at
present.
The matter was brought before the
chamber of commerce yesterday af-
ternoon by President William Walsh
who read a letter from the Inter-Island
asking for an opinion Of Maui people
on a proposal by the company to
change the sailing time of the Clau-
dine on Saturdays from 4 o'clock TO
o'clock in the afternoon in order that
the vessel may have time to reach Ho
nOlulu before the street cars stop run
ming.
3igger And Faster Boat Needed
II soon developed that the proposed
change of time would make it i'm
possible for Lahaina or up-country
mails to bI dispatched. 1t was then
suggested that the problem could be
solved by putting a faster boat on the
run and this brought out a further
suggestion that Maui has about out
grown the Claudine in some 20 years
and should have larger and better
vessel anyhow. 1t was proposed to ask
that the Kilauea be made the Maui
boat in place of the Claudine.
A letter from II. A. Baldwin suggest
ng that personally he would prefer
to have the sailing time of the Clau
dine changed to 10 p. M, arriving al
daylight in Honolulu, met with genera
favor; and the further suggestion oi
a later sailing from Honolulu eliminat
ing the Lahaina stop was also general
y approved.
The matter was finally turned ovel
10 the committee on shipping ant
transportation which is to go into The
merits OF the various suggestions
and report back at the next meeting
of the chamber.

Hama Wharf Contract
Delayed By Rock Bottom

Reports from Hama are that Con
tractor James B. Agassiz, who has the
contract for building the new wharf
at Hama, is having a tough time in
making good on his job. and the end
of it seems to be a long way in the
future. The trouble is due to a bed
Of extremely hard rock in which it is
necessary to set the concrete piles for
the wharf foundation. This rock was
deeply covered by sand when the con
tract was let, but the construction of
& road 10 the new wharf site appears
TO have caused the currents along the
shore to change so as to cause all the
sand to shift.

Airman To Fly Over
Top OF HaleakaIa
Pilot Fern Does Stunts Over Kula
For Benefit 0fSanitarium Patients
Flying Fast Becoming Fad On
Maui-Machine In Great Demand

Flying is the fad on Maui just now.
Everybodys doin' it,
Beginning with last Sunday Pilot c.
j. Fern has been about as busy as he
could be ever since. The weather has
been very gSDd since Tuesday for fly
ing and dozens of Maui people have
taken their first journey to cloud-land,
SO constant has been the whir of the
trim little Curtis plane in the past few
days that already Wailuku and Kahu-
lui folk have grown basel and now
scarcely bother to glance upward
when they hear it.
Yesterday morning Mr.. Fern with
Frank A. Lufllin as a passenger made
flight up to the Kula sanitarium
and staged a little air show for the
benefit of the inmates of that institu-
ton.
Within the next few days Pilot
Fern expects to fly over Haleakala.
As he has frequently reached an att
tude of 1900 feet or more he has no
doubt about the trip, though he states
that it takes some time to make the
climb.
a very considerable proportion of
the passengers making the flights on
Maui are Japanese. This nationality
(as well as all other aliens) was not
permitted to fly on Oahu on account
of the war department regulations
barring all except citizens from flying
in the vicinity of forts or military
posts.
The airplane company is now max
ing its headquarters at the county
fair grounds, Kahului, which have
proved well adapted to the purpose
The field at the polo grounds was first
class as a flying field but too difficult
to reach for the general public.
