McBryde and Kilauea
Win Their Games


This time the game was at Kilauea,
and at the end of the ninth inning the
score stood Z to in favor of the
home team
Kilauea deserves all the credit in
the world because they played great
game of ball, both in fielding and in
batting.
This cannot be said for Lihue. In
the first place Capt. John Fernandez
pulled a boner when he busted his
regular lineup. Lihue has only one
pitcher and his name is Okuda. To
put any other man in the box is sim
ply throwing away the game.
The Kilauea boys are sluggers, and
the way they hammered poor Perreira
in the fourth inning was sinful.
After the Kacs had scored five men
with the able assistance of Lihue's
shortstop and second baseman,) Per-
reira was yanked and Okuda was put
in the box to try and save the day.
But it was another case of locking
the door after the horse was gone.
Although the Kacs got only one hit
and one run Okuda, the Lacs simply
could not figure out the combination
to Kinjis delivery and failed to come
across with enough runs to bridge the
gap.
kinji Is Hero of Game
Lihue started the game by scoring
three runs in the first and one in the
third innings, and it looked as though
Kinji would have to be yanked. But
he settled down after that and the
Laos simply could not connect off
him for hits.
At last the eighth inning arrives,
and the hopes of the Lihue supporters
began to revive, because this was the
lucky eighth" and something was
sure to happen. 1t surely did. Lihue
got the bases full with nobody out.
Then it happened-Kinji struck out
the next three batters, one, two, three
Just like that. 1t certainly was a
grand piece of work-and goodness,
how the home fans (and the Makees)
did howl.
Lihue got in one more run in the
ninth, but that was all there was to it..
They were beaten fair and square.
