All Maui is to be back of the first

morrow at the Kahului fair grounds.
An immense amount of interest is be-
ing manifested from all sides in the
enterprise, not merely among the
schools which are furnishing the most
of the teams that will take part in the
events.
On Tuesday a meeting of the Maui
County Fair & Racing Association was
held primarily to back up it's Athletic
Division which has charge of the meet
Much interest was manifested and it
is certain that the boys will have the
encouragement of the presence of a
large number of the business men OF
the community when the starters
pistol cracks for the first time at
o'clock tomorrow afternoon.
WOMEN ALSO KOKUA
The Maui Woman's Club is also TAX
ing an interest and has called upon it's
members to attend the sports, besides
having donated one of the prizes.
AS result of all this interest it
seems likely that the games will be
success financially as well as other
wise.

and racing association, explained at
the meeting on Tuesday that four
senior teams and 10 junior teams will

principal sugar plantations of Maui.

and ribbons for other prizes. All of

ing the events, and will be made a
part Of the days events.

transporting the children of most of
the schools and a very large attend
ance from this source is expected. A
large crowd is expected from Lahaina,
Manager Collins OF the Pioneer Mill
Co., having provided trucks for the
purpose. Mr.. Collins stated that the
