LEAGUE BASEBALL TO
START MAY IS

At the meeting of the Kauai Ath-
letic Association last Thursday even
ing, at which there was a large and
representative attendance, it was
definitely decided that there would
at least be six teams entered in the
coming baseball series, with pos,
sible seventh.
In answer to Pres. Wishard's query
as to whether Hanalei district inten-
ded to enter a team, Mr.. SanbOrn
stated that there would be no team
from that district this year,
Kawaihau, Lihue, McBryde and
Makaweli all signified their intention
to enter teams, while Grove Farm,
the L. S. Engineers and Koloa made
application for entrance. Grove
Farm and Koloa were accepted, and
a committee was appointed to en-
quire into the status of the Engineer
team before finally admitting them

Harbor Project Now
Ready for Crane

The preliminary work necessary to
the actual construction of the Break
water is now pretty we'll finished,
The trestle bridge across the river,
the new quarters, the road to the
same, the water system for the
whole enterprise, the grading for the
landing crane are all completed, and
the railway from the quarry to the
breakwater site is we'll along.
The quarry site is being opened up
and promises well, so that on the ar
rival of the big quarry crane, togeth,
er with the locomotive and the roll
ing stock for the railway, the actual
placing of rock can begin.
The railway to the quarry will be
about half mile long, and will be
laid with 65 lb. rails.
For the face walls of the Break
water blocks of not less than eight
tons will be necessary to withstand
the force of the heavy seas. This
will mean stones of not less than 125
cubic yards. or bigger than a good
sized dining table.
Just when these big blocks will be
moved and placed will depend on the
arrival of the crane and the rolling
stock.

AN ENJOYABLE TRIP

A sightseeing party consisting of
Mr. H. F. Montgomery of Los Angel
es, Mrs. C. w. Alexander of Oakland,
DR.. ]. C. Hoag of Chicago and F..
Grinnell of the High School made the
comprehensive tour on Thursday of
the Spouting Horn, Kukuiolono park,
Olokele Canyon and the Barking
Sands, all in time to catch the Lur-
line by which Mr. Montgomery and
Mrs. Alexander departed for Town.
That is one great advantage of the
Kauai wonders, they are multum in
parvo, and can be seen if need be in
hurry.

An Interesting Old Heiau
LIHUE BOY MAKING GOOD
IN ATHLETICS ON MAINLAND

Paul Rice, son of Sheriff w. II.
Rice Jr, of Lihue, is making an en-
viable reputation as a sprinter on the
mainland At a recent interscholas-
tic meet of the Ventura County, Cal
ifornia high schools, Paul, who rep
resented the Thacher School, took
three first places, as follows 22O yd.
hurdle in 2S flat; 220 yd. dash in
234, and the 100 yd. dash in 1O4.
He lacked just one place of getting
the highest individual score of the
meet.
In this meet, Houser, representing
OXnard, broke the interscholastic
worlds record in the discus, hurting
it 149 feet.

Growing Popularity Of
Puu-ka-Pelee Park
By ]. M. Lydgate.

By way of evidence of the popular
ity of the Waimea Canyon Puu-ka-
Pele-Kokee country and the interest
which they awaken, it may be noted
that not less than 40 people made the
trip thither last week, and there were
not less than six parties of tourists
among them. This may of course
lbe above the average, owing to the
advent of the Lurline and the fact
that it was school vacation week.
But with the advent of summer and
the ingathering of summer campers
there will be much more traffic. A
better road will do much to increase
the travel, and the increased travel
will justify the good road.
Campers and Outing Parties
Mr.. and Mrs. Sessions, of the Wal
mea School spent the vacation week
at Kokee goat hunting, tramping and
enjoying the country.
Miss Lindsay and Miss Underhill
of the Lihue High school spent the
vacation week at the Faye place, Ko-
kee, with much satisfaction and ben
eft.
Miss Brode, Miss Turner, Miss
Trindle, Thelma Hopper, Kenneth
Hopper, and Homer Tracy spent the
vacation week at Kokee, occupying
the Larsen cottage.
Mr.. F. Grinnell of the High school,
accompanied by DR.. J. c. Hoag OF
Chicago, made a horseback tour OF
the Puu-ka-Pele-Kokee region last
Friday, making the whole round III
one day. Dr. Hoag is brother of
the child study expert recently here,
He was very much impressed with
the interest and grandeur of the
Waimea Canyon. He is familiar
with the Grand Canyon of the Colo
RADIO with, which he compares the
Waimea one very favorably to the
latter.
An Interesting Old Heiau
For the benefit of visitors to the
Puu-ka- -Pele region, attention may be
called to a very we'll preserved and
very interesting Heiau of Ka-lei-na'

forest line, and at an elevation of
some 22OO feet. 1t stands on the

Highly Boys Back;
Had Glorious Time

Ernest Wedemeyer, official scribe
of the Kauai High School delegation
to the third annual territorial stu
dents conference held at Kafieohe,
Oahu, March 81 to April4, read a de-
tailed, interesting and Illuminating
report of the trip of Kauai Highs ten
delegates, before his schoolmates
yesterday morning. Space does
not permit a full copy of Scribe We
demeyer's report in the Garden Is
land. The following digest will be
of general interest.
The party, under the supervision of
Associate Y. M. c. A. secretary, r. c.
Macdonald left by the Kinau on
Tuesday, March 81 and were gone
one week for the most part, three
staying over for the next steamer.
The boys were entertained while
in Honolulu at the Central and Nu-
uanu Y. M. c. A. They were first
shown the splendid buildings of the
Army and Navy, Central and Nuuanu
associations. On Wednesday after
noon the party organized a basket
ball team to answer the challenge OF
the delegation from Hilo. Kauai
had the good fortune to win this un-
official game and pronounced the
Hilo lads good sports withal as the
game was very close. In the even
ing the boys were treated to movie
show at the Liberty.
Leaving at $3.50 for Kaneohe by
truck, they arrived at 5 o'clock and
by $50 had their tents up and were
busy enjoying regular Y camp
meal. On the matter of food supply
the boys report, "The grub was
great and everyone consumed i'm
mense quantities except one small
fellow by the name of Brandt and he
said How can you expect me, small
as l am, to eat that plate full?"
The first evening, representatives
of the different delegations spoke on
why they were there. C.. Morimoto
spoke for Kauai with very creditable
effect. The daily program for each
of the days was typical. At 6 a. m.
reveille, 6:15 setting up exercises,
6:30-7:15 morning devotions with
general discussion, 1920 breakfast,
7:45 camp chores, Sis inspection,
$3.50 assembly, Bible study, discuss
ion of students problems on Home
School and Church relationships. In
one of these discussions Ernest We
demeyer made very fine speech on

Above is the result of one of the
worst automobile wrecks in the mo-
toring history of Kauai that occurred
at the corner near the Jameson place
Lihue, Sunday night at about s
o'clock, and that any one of the pas
sengels escaped instant death is
mystery.
The wreck was caused by the car,
while travelling at high rate of
speed, coming in contact with a stone
wall.
There were no actual witnesses to
the accident, other than the victims
themselves, and they are not able
to talk, but the scene of the wreck
and the condition of the car tell
pretty plain story.
The first persons on the scene af-
ter the smash were S. Kusaka, book
keeper for Kapaia Garage, and B. X.
Yamamoto, industrial training teach
er at Lihue public school, They
were in car and were driving from
Kapaia to Lihue.
Kusaka, when seen this morning
said substantially as follows: "Yama-
moto and | were going to Lihue from
Kapaia, and when we reached the top
of the hill we saw lights of a car on
the wrong side of the road at the
turn. When we got to where the car
was Joe Callistro walked out in the
road and waved his hand We stop
ped and saw that he was all covered
with blood, and that the car and
stone wall was all smashed.
I'VE found Amorin about half un-
der the car and Rego lying to the
side with a rock on him. Rego said
his leg was broken We went to the
hospital to get the DOCTOR then we
went to the Tip Top to try and find
somebody to help move the car
When we were coming out from the
hospital we met a Dodge car bring
ing Amorin and Callistro to the hos.
pital."
Miss Alma Barker, teacher at Han
amaulu, Chas. Fern, and ]. H. Hall,
all came along shortly after-Mr
Hall riding in a Ford truck. After
getting a stretcher from the hospital
Rego was placed on it and taken to
the hospital in the truck.
DR.. Kuhns was at Kealia at the
time of the accident but arrived in
90 minutes after being notified. His
examinations show that Callistro's
Jaw is fractured on the right side
and crushed on the left side; that a
piece of glass or some other sharp
substance had passed through his
throat cutting off the top of the wind
pipe.
Rego's leg is broken but at pres
ent it is not possible to say how SER
iOus the break is.
Virgine Amorin, although severely
bruised, escaped without serious in
jury.
Callistro's condition was SO SER
ious last night that the doctor had
grave doubts as to whether he would
last out the night. He was consider
ably better this morning however,
and Doctor Kuhns states that his
chances for recovery are brighter.

DR.. Elton B. Jones, Chiropractor,
moved into his new office next to
Van Leuvan's haberdashery on Mon
day. The new quarters are much

the latter part of last year.

Mrs. M. " Taber mother of Mr..
]. G. e. Taber of the Kauai Drug Co.
is here visiting her son and daughter
in-law, having arrived from st. Paul
via Honolulu. last week. She will
be here for about a month.
Mr.. P. F. Hurley, local contractor,
who, when it comes to excess avoir-
dupois does not even admit Fatty"
Arbuckle to be his equal, is the proud
father of another baby in his family
the new arrival this time being boy,
who has been named Jay F. Hurley.
His first child, now several years
old, is girl.
The Kauai Drug Companys new
soda fountain opened for business
last Saturday, and if the business
done on the opening date is any indi-
cation of the future demand for "Vel-
vet" icecream, Mr. Taber will never
regret the day when he decided to
give Kauai people the best obtainable
in this commodity.
DR.. Sau Yee Chang, who has been
waiting patiently for the past six
months for his new Office to be CON-
pleted, will soon be able to settle
down in a permanent office. His dent
al equipment arrived by the "Lurline"
last week, and the doctor expects to
be able to receive patients early next
week.
Mr.. Chas. Lineau, who together
with Mr.. J. c. E. Taber, organized the
Kauai Drug Company last year, has
sold all of his interest in the company
to Mr.. Taber, who is now the sole
owner, and will soon leave Kauai for
his home in San Francisco.
Mr.. A. Horner, Jr., superintendent
of the Hawaiian Canneries Company,
departed for Honolulu on business
last Tuesday. He returned this morn
ing accompanied by Mrs. Horner,
who has been spending the past three
weeks in Honolulu visiting Mr.. and
Mrs. A. Horner, Sr.
At meeting of the Makee baseball
club held at the Kapaa court house
last Wednesday, the following were
elected as officials for the coming
year: H. Wolters, president; VIM
Meheula, vice-president; G. NJ. Shak,
treasurer; Alvin Branco, temporary
secretary, Henry Sheldon, manager,
and Kion Soong, captain. Another
meeting will be held this week to
complete plans for the coming season
and to elect a permanent secretary
Mr.. Geo. Raymond, last years secre-
tary, being in Honolulu when the last
meeting was held.
1t seems to us that Edward G. Liu,
Wailua homesteader, must have been
born with some special qualifications
which makes him better juryman
than others. He has again been
drawn to serve on the Federal Grand
Jury during the coming term begin
ming this month, being the only Kauai
man to be selected after he had only
been excused a couple of weeks ago
from service ON the trial jury at
Lihue.

The Fare Raiser

The announcement that receiver
for the 1nterhorough Rapid Transit
Company had been applied for was
blighting news for thousands of New
York households.
A receivership, it was foreseen,
probably meant cancellation of the
lease of the Manhattan elevated
lines, and with them operated sepa-
rately they seemingly have right
to collect 10-cent fares. A receiver
ship also threatens, as Brooklyn has
learned to her sorrow, the divorce
naent of many side lines, with many
thousands required to pay double or
triple fares.
The city administration beasts
that it has maintained the fivelsent
fare. It hasn't. The public now
pays approximately for every pas
senger carried by the subway. Five
cents comes from the passenger and
two cents from the city's treasury,
making total actual payment of
seven cents. The city's budget is an
nually $1o,ooo,0o0 larger because
out of taxation must be met the in
terest on the sums the city has in
vested. AS to those now compelled
to use two companies, ask them
whether the fare is five cents.
Under the Gaynor and Mitchell adj
ministrations a traffic system was
created that gave practically every
citizen chance to go to and from
his business for nickel. This was
the essence of the big conception of
George R. McAneny. Since then the
system has been dismembered. The
great body Of travellers, either as
passengers or taxpayers, pays seven
cents, while others pay 10 cents, Is
and in some cases 20 cents. Who
broke down the integrated system
put together by years of intelligent
labor? Who is responsible for the
wrecking which has occurred? It is
not necessary to mention the name.
