Many New Players
On Seattle Team,

SEATTLE, Wash, April 1--(Associ-
ated Press Mail)-The Indians, Seat
ties club in the Pacific Coast Baseball
League, will enter the 1922 pennant
race April 4 in first class shape and
with last years weak places in the
lineup bolstered by new men of tried
ability, according to James Boldt, pres
ident of the club. d.
tits n of the best teams in the
league as the season opens" said
President Boldt, "and if it doesn't
show up among the leaders in the first
few weeks we will cur the players
necessary to place it there"
The catching staff of the team will
remain as last year with the veterans,
Jack Adams, Tubby Spencer ready for
call. Frank Tobin, a youngster of
last year, made good and landed a
permanent berth.
Sport writer's who watched the team
at the training camp agree that the
Seattle hurlers measure UP well with
others in the circuit. In addition to
Harry Gardner, Elmer Jacobs, Hun
ky. Schorr and Joe Daley of last
years squad, the Indians will have
Vean Gregg, once famous left handler
of the Philadelphia Athletics; Joe
Finneran, who formerly played with
Newark in the International League;
Rem Kelly, from the st. Paul Ameri-
can Association team and George Bur-
ger, left handler who played with the
Wichita Western League club. All of
them have shown up well in training
camp practice.
Captain Rod" Murphy, one of the
teams most consistent hitters, is as,
sured of her first base position. At
second will be Tom Connolly, Dart
mouth College player who later was
with the st. Joseph Western League
team.
A good fight is promised at third,
where TEX" Wisterzil, veteran, and
Manuel Cueto, who held down the sack
for the Cincinnati Red Sox in 1920,
are trying for the regular berth. Bill
Stumpf and George Brovold will fight
it out at shortstop. Stumpf made good
last year, but Brovold has displayed
talent for a youngster and may nose
into the position.
In the outfield are Billy Lane,
Brick Eldred, Ed Barney and Frank
Schultz. Lane and Eldred. veterans
of last year, are assured of their posts
Schultz, former Chicago Cub player,
and Barney, a mainstay of last years
Buffalo team in the International
League, have won favorable attention
from the camp gossips.
The batting order for the opener
against San Francisco will probably
be:
Lane, Cueto or Wisterzil, Murphy,
Eldred, Barney, Stumpf. Connolly,
Tobin and Gardner.

Paddock Clips Two
Records Over Turf
And Ties a Third

Two turf records were smashed and
one tied by Charlie Paddock in his
exhibition on Waikiki field Sunday
afternoon. Those who went to the
grounds, and there were about 500
grown ups and children there, were
well rewarded by what they were
shown for in addition to his fast sprint
ing over the sward the marvel gave
an exhibition of starts and finishes
and a talk on training and condition
ing as well as some good advice on
the development of the young runner.
Sanction had been asked of the A. A.
u. officials at Honolulu so that it is
hoped that the Maui time will receive
recognition from the records commit
tee of the Union on the mainland. No
word had been received before the
meet relative to the sanction asked
nor had any objection been voiced to
the holding of the meeting. Paddock
competed against several High School
runner so as to give further stand
ing to any figures he might establish.
Two ffths of a second was clipped
from the hundred yards record by Pad
dock over the turf, the timers watches
catching 8 3-5 seconds as against an
old time of 10 seconds fiat. The so
yard record was tied in 5 Is and the
so cut from 6 2-5 to 6 Is.
Paddock's exhibition of starting and
finishing was especially interesting.
He showed the styles adopted by
Duffy and others and the change of
methods he used.
The California sprinter is not the
type one would expect for such a
human speed marvel, has not the
length of leg one would think neces
sary to secure the necessary stride
but he showed to Maui folk that he
is everything that has been said of
him.

Twirling Staff
Strongest in Years

SAN FRANCISCO, April 1-(Asso-
ciated Press MaiD-Considered by To-
cal fans to be stronger in the outield
and infield and with the same catch
ing staff as last year, the San Fran
cisco Seals enter the 1922 Pacific
Coast League pennant race with an
almost entirely ley pitching staff. If
these twirlers deliver and Jack Mil
Ter, the new manager, believes they
will it may mean a pennant. Other
wise it will be just another season.
We have lost Jimmy Caveney,
Johnny Couch and Lefty O'Doul
through graduation" said Miller, "but
we have acquired some real players
to replace them. Five experienced
players were obtained to fill the gap
in the staff caused by the departure
of O'Doul and Couch, Geary, Alien,
Coumbe, Davis and Mitchell and l be-
lieve they will win many more games
than Couch and O'Doul won last
year. Bert Ellison will be used In
Caveny's place at shortstop.
81 am convinced the Seals have
sufficient strength to make a real
fight for the flag. However, l prefer
to win the pennant on the diamond,
so l will not try to make any predic-
tons"
Manager Miller will play first base.
His fielding at that bag will be a
vast improvement over any the Seals
have had in several seasons, and he
Is said to be a good hitter.
Replacing Maury Rath at second
will be Pete Kilduff, acquired from
the Brooklyn Nationals. Kilduhf is
an excellent fielder and hitter with
years of major league experience.
There was no contest for the third
base position, Willie Kamm holding
'undisputed right to that section of the
diamond. Willie's fielding is gilt
edged and his stick work is better
than ever Kamm undoubtedly will go
to the majors next year.
Ellison, last years utility infielder
and %outfelder, will be shunted into
the gap at shortstop left by Caveney
He is expected to field with the class
of Caveney but with Kilduff on left
and Kamm on his right, he will have
plenty of assistance in his work.
The newcomers in the infield are
Charley See, from Cincinnati, and
Gene Valla, a local youngster, Valla's
brilliant work in the training camp
won for him a utility berth. See is
an exceptionally fast fielder, with a
fine arm and is an almost certain 800
hitter. With him will be Jimmy o.
Cornell, who vas purchased by the
New York Giants for 1923 delivery for
$4,000. O'Connell was played at first
base last season but he is a natural
outfelder. Joe Kelly and Justin
Fitzgerald, followers, complete VIC
list of fly chasers.
Behind the plate Sam Agnew and
Archie Yelle will again receive the
curves. Yelle is heavier and expects
to have a good year.

Huge Crowds Expected
Will Witness Pacific
Coast League Games

SAN FRANCISCO, April 3-(Asso-
ciated Press MaiD-Crowds larger
than ever before, weather permitting.
this year will jam the parks of the
Pacific Coast Baseball League, William
H. Mccarthy, San Francisco, president
of the league, predicted in a state
ment made public here today.
The cry of play BALI will mark
the commencement of the greatest
pennant race in minor league history.
under sthe auspices of the most pro-
gressive league in the country, and |
do not except the major leagues in
this statement, Mr. Mccarthy said.
Most progressive, | repeat, be-
cause in every forward looking move
ment for the ~betterment, protection
and improvement of the national
game, this league has pioneered the
way.
The purse of twenty thousand dol
lars offered by the directors Is the
latest earnest of our intention to Sc
cur the continued, sustained and best
effort of every player from the COM
mencement to the close of the season.
Teams have been strengthened, the
country has been combed to fill up
weak spots with better players, parks
have been enlarged and improved and
no expense has been spared to give
the best to VI people.
"a favorite star will be missed from
almost every team. Perhaps, this is
the best answer to those who have
urged that we were opposed to the
advancement of a ball player. We are
not opposed, but we are opposed to
denuding and w%recking III teams an
nually to suit the convenience of the
major leagues. Most emphatically;
the ball player is entitled to advance,
but the league itself and the patrons
of the game in the most rapidly dew
clipping section of the country, the
Pacific Coast, are also entitled to pro-
lection. Why should baseball in Salt
Lake be sacrificed to please st. Louis
81 Los Angeles, or Portland, or San
Francisco, or any of our great cities
suffer to provide entertainment for
Brooklyn or Philadelphia or Washing
ton?
ITO the ever increasing number of
patrons of our league in different
cities at the commencement of the
season of 1922, l renew the pledge
that so far as it is humanity possible,
we will spare no expense, effort or
energy to protect, produce and develop
the sport to its highest plane. 1t
is your support, your confidence, your
love of the game, that makes profess
sional baseball possible. 1t is our
duty to give you the best and we will
fulfill that duty"

Field Day Meet
Must Register Soon

Further plans toward making the
Maui Field Day meet on May 9th a
great success were adopted by the
Field Day committee at a meeting
held on Friday in the old library ROOF
in Waikiki.
The meeting was in session from 8
o'clock a. m, until a p. m. Every de-
tail minor and large was carefully
gone rel to make practically certain
that there shall be no mishap to mar
the regularity of the performance as
it is planned. The meet is to start
promptly at l o'clock and the program
has been so arranged that the secre-
tary of the Field Day committee, G.
A. Puck, has said that the last event
will have been staged by 4:30.
The meet to be held on the 9th of
May, according to the secretary will
be far superior to the two track and
field meets that have been held in
10 and 20. A far greater turnout of
participants is expected than the 9TH
er meets have had. Those athletes
who have taken a place in the compe-
tition previously are said to have pro-
fitted by the experience gained and
word received from many of the vari-
Gus schools on Maui promise a good
ly number of new entries.
In the morning will be the agricul-
tural exhibits of the school children
on the Island. This will be the first
time that an exhibit by the children
alone has been undertaken. Compe-
tent judges, the same that make the
awards for the Star-Bulletin garden
contests will Judge the various ex
hibits and reports from the school
gardens promise keen competition
from the young gardeners. The judges
will give credits in the garden contest
later to the schools and home garden
ers exhibiting.
Light lunches, soda pop, ice cream
cones and other little d~elicacies to
make up a light lunch will be served
on the grounds at a minimum of cost.
The committee states that it is not
their purpose to derive any benefit
from the proceeds and that admission
fees will be as low as is possible in
order to barely meet the expenses.
Entries for the track and field meet
will soon be asked to make out their
application blanks. The closing date
for entrants is set IA days prior to
the meet and will close at midnight,
Saturday, April %.

Wacs Are Idle
But Take Lead
When Sports Lose
HOW THEY STAND

Saturdays Game-Sports s, Asahi
2. Sundays Games - Sakura 70,
Sport 8; Maui Hi IL, Waihee 8.
BY defeating the Sports in the first
game of Sundays doubleheader the
Sakura nine moved to the head of the
second division in the junior league
standings and pulled the Sports down
a notch leaving the Wacs the unde-
feated leaders of the league.
Maui HIS took the second contest
of the afternoon from the Waihee
nine and also moved into the games
won column for the first time in the
series.
Saturday afternoons game returned
the Sports victors over the Asahis.
The score was 80 although the game
was much better than that score
would indicate.
Sakuras Win
Sundays first game started off in
the usual manner with the Sports an
nexing three runs in the first half of
the inning. Three singles and two
errors being responsible for the trio
of runs. From her on to the fourth
frame neither team scored. Sakura
made their first score in the last of
the fourth. Starting the fifth the
Sports scored after 2 were out but the
Sakuras came in strong in their half.
Four hits two of them for two bags,
w errors and a pass to first gave
them 5 runs. They scored once again
in the sixth.
1t looked like the lucky seventh for
the Sports when without a safe hit
five men crossed the rubber. Sakura
scored n in the same canto. The
Sports led through the first half of
the eigth by 8 to 8 but in the last
half five errors, a walk and a single
scored four times for the Japanese
team. The Sports failed to score in
the ninth.
Second Game
Maui Hi School nine turned the tide
against Waihee in the third inning
and after that canto held the lead
throughout the game. Waihee reused
the fans by scoring three runs in the
first inning without the aid of
a a hit. High School retaliated
in the second with two runs across
the pan. In the third, first up three
hits and errors allowed four men to
register for the His. Waihee came
back with two. In the fifth High
School scored twice and Waihee add
ed one. In the sixth His took three
and Waihee two. Neither team scor-
ed in the seventh and Hi School scor-
ed one in the eighth. With a foul
run lead at the first of the ninth the

of the inning in order to shorten the
games as the day was approaching
dusk. Waihee failed to score.
