Fighting Loses
Casts In Mexico

MEXICO CITY, June 26-(Associ-
ated Press MaiD-The future of bull
fighting in Mexico is not as certain as
its most ardent devotees would wish
as the result of a series of newspaper
and other attacks against it as the
national sport.
Protests that the spectacles are
"barbarous and uncivilized" have been
frequently expressed by contributors
to local newspapers and the Council
of Culture and Arts recently engaged
in heated debate over their continual
ton, At the last session of congress
a bill was introduced in the lower
house asking for the abolition of
bullights but it was p~igeon-holed and
never came up or discussion. Assur-
ance is given, however, that the bill
will be revived at the next session
of congress opening in September with
absolute certainty that it will be call
ed up for debate.
Several clubs and societies in Mexi-
CO City have gone on record as OPP
posed to the sport and all protestants
are finding a ready champion in the
newspaper Ell Universal whose editor,
Fleix F. Palavicin is u%nalterably
againgst it. On the contrary, Rafael
Alducin, editor of Excelsior, is one of
the most enthusiastic followers of the
games

Tam and Ting Win
Doubles Title In
Hard Fought Sets

Eddie Tam and Young Ting are
the doubles tennis champions of Maui
They won the title Saturday aften-
noon on the Puunene Court from zee
and zee, taking three straight sets
after losing the first two. 1t was a
holly contested, more holly contested
than the score in other than the first
and final sets would indicate.
The first set which went to the zee
Brothers at 1913 was a see-saw affair
with each team taking the lead time
and again. The second set was also
won by the zee Brothers by a score
of So. With no signs of discourage
ment, Tam and Ting frightened up and
took the third set from their oppo-
nents by the score of 81. The fourth
set opened up with a bang with Tam
and Ting taking five games straight
The sixth game went to the zee Bro
Tiers who in turn lost the seventh
game, giving their victors another
set at 81.
Although the scores were not so
close as was expected, very excellent
tennis was displayed throughout the
third and fourth sets. With two sets
apiece to each team, Tam and Ting
opened up the fifth and deciding set
by taking three straight games. The
zee Brothers then opened fire on
their opponents by taking three
games also, which evened up the
score. The seventh game went to
Tam and Ting and the eighth game
going to the zee Brothers, which
again tied the score. The ninth game
was won by Tam and Ting and the
10th and 18th went to their opponents
The score then stood at 6-5 in favor
of the zee Brothers. With the spec
tators filled with excitement and both
teams keeping down their nerves, the
18th game went to Tam and Ting.
Thus the score stood even again and
it was an open victory for either
team. The spectators stood alert with
little less excitement as Tam and
Ting took the 18th and 14th games
and won set So and the match $40,
2-6, 6-1, 81 and Sc.

Bones OF Prehistoric
Man Found Encased
In Cemented Gravel

SAN FRANCISCO, June 24-(Asso-
ciated Press MaiD-Amateur anthro-
biologists and students interested in
mans beginnings in North America
are specializing on what may result
from the Smithsonian Institutions
study of the skull of the Stanford
man. This human fragment, encased
in cemented gravel, recently was un-
earthed from the bank of San Fran
cisco creek on the western boundary
of the campus at Stanford University
and forwarded to the institution. Its
antiquity apparently is unquestioned,
but the place it will occupy in the his
tory of mans prehistoric development
remains for science to determine.
The fact that the skull was found
IS feet below the level of the sur
rounding plain indicates, according to
DR.. Bailey Willis, professor of geo.
logy at Stanford University, that its
age may be from two thousand to ten
thousand years. the structure of the
skull differs from that of the Ameri-
can Indian and has the prominent
bony ridges above the eyes, which
is a characteristic of the primitive
man.
There have been no discoveries of
human fossils of extreme antiquity
on the North American continent and
and in scientific circles it is generally
agreed that mans first appearance
on the western hemisphere was long
ages after he had settled himself in
the Valleys of Central Europe. If that
theory is accepted, the Stanford man
was comparatively a modern indivi-
dual although he may have antedated
civilization by many centuries.
The oldest human relic yet discov-
cred glories in the name of "Pithecan-
thropus erectus," otherwise the erect
ape man and he belonged to an age
so remote that no other trace or re-
cord of his kind ever has been found.
"Pithecanthropus" fiourished, as near
ly as science can estimate, one mil
lion years ago. The relics consist of
his skull, a thigh bone and a couple
of molar teeth and they were found
in Java by a Dutch surgeon in 1891
under fifty feet of strata, So far as
it was possible to draw conclusions
from him after a reconstruction OF
the fragments, vas evident that he
was something less than a man and
something higher than an ape. He
was between the two extremes anc
probably belonged to a species from
which the human race was evolved
Java, when "Pithecanthropus" anC
his kind foregathered, was a par
of the Asiatic mainland, in scientific
opinion.
Before this oldest scrap of man
kind came to light and intrigued thu
imagination of the scientific world
other human relics had been discov
cred in Central Europe, but their ag,
was as naught compared with tn,
man of Java. The Heilberg mai
whose only relic is a single bit o
jawbone, was unearthed at a dept
of about 80 feet in the Mauer sand
near Heidelberg, Germany in 1907
His age was estimated at abou
500, 900 years or half that of his an
cestor, Pithecanthropus.

The Stanford University baseball
team will not play on Maui as had
been previously arranged, according to
word received by M. Comes PaschOal,
Saturday morning.
Friday Paschoal received a telegram
from the Cardinals manager saying it
was doubtful if they would make the
Maui trip and that a letter to follow
would explain. Saturday morning
Paschoal received the letter that call
ed off the series to be played here.
The Cardinals expressed the desire
to come TO Maui but owing to injuries
sustained by four of their players in
recent games considered it inadvisable
to make the journey here.
Next Sunday at the Kahului dia-
mond the Maui league games will con
tinue according to the regular SEIZED

Mandarins Fall On Moniz
With Two Out and Shatter
Hopes of Wacs in Gruelling
Game

When manager George Cummings
let August Moniz stay perched on the
slab after the seventh canto, George
said goodbye to what looked like a
Wacs victory over the cosmopolitan
mandarins. Not that Moniz wasn't
there with plenty of stuff, but after
those seven gruelling innings with
rather erratic support from his team
mates, August showed signs of being
all in.
Had an S. o. S. been sent out from
the bench and some fresh slabster
ordered in to relieve August it might
have been a different story.
MoniZ showed himself a master
both in twirling and baseball brains
but the pace was too hard and he
weakened.
Waes Lead off
Wells Cummings started the Wacs
at u getting. In the first frame af-
ter the Chinese had been let down
easily, Haake walked Bill Cummings
and Asam two straight. Cockett hit
to the infeld forcing Jimmie nj sec
ond and Cummings was called out at
the plate by Leandro on a rather
shaky decision. Wells Cummings
doubled through second and Cocketl
romped home with the first tally
Frank Bal found Haake for a terrific
drive over third base that should
have been an easy double but Aleona
made a blind stab in the air and the
ball found his glove.
Mandarins Tie
Business of playing ball went along
then as peaceful as the Soviet con
vention at the Hague until the fiftf
when an overthrow of a bag proved
costly to the Wacs. Aleong opened
activities with a texas Lacquer oyel
Wells head that was good for {
single. All Tau sacrificed him alons
to the half way mark Inside stuff
looked good to Silva and he repeated
safely beating the throw to first. Wal
waiole threw over third in an attempr

third baseman headed for home.
Moniz put the Wacs in the leaC
again in their half when he reached

One Hit Game
Twirled By Kula
Star Moundsmar

Striking out 20 batters, allowing
hit, and winning his game II to 8
is the record established in the East
Maui circuit by Neil Blaisdell the Kula
star twirler on the Paia diamond Sun
day afternoon.
Blaisdell was entitled to a shutout,
the Filipinos scoring their only three
counters in the sixth inning without
the aid of a single safe hit.
Lee opened the game on the mound
for the Filipinos but was very ineffec-
tive. Eleven runs and as many safe
tvs were scored from the delivery
of the son of Rial in the first six
canto's Rapael was sent in to re
leive Lee in the seventh but failed to
stop the hillsmen, six runs and five
hits being scored against him.
Extra base hits were a feature of
the game, 10 two sackers and a three
Dagger being accumulated.

HENRY AND CONSTANCE

SYNOPS1S.-Wealt and highly placed in the Chicago business world, Benjamin Corvet is some thing of recluse and a mystery to his associates. After a stormy interview with his partner, Henry Spearman, Corvet seeks Constance Sherrill. daughter of his other business partner, Lawrence Sher- Till, and secures from her a prom ise not to marry Spearman. He then disappears. Sherrill learns Corvet has written to certain Alan Conrad. in Blue Rapids, Kan sas, and exhibited strange agita- tion over the matter. CoYet's let ter summons Conrad, a youth of unknown percentage. to Chicago. Alan arrives in Chicago. From statement of Sherrill it seems prob able Conrad is Corvet's illegitimate son. Corvet has deeded his house and its contents to Alan, who takes possession. That night Alan dis covers a man ransacking the desks and bureau drawers in Corvet's apartments. The appearance of Alan tremendously agitates the in- truder, who appears to think him a ghost and raves Of the Miwa ka." After a struggle the man es- capes. Next day Alan learns from Sherrill that Corvet has deeded his entire property to him. Introduced to Spearman, Alan is astounded at the discovery that he is the man whom he had fought in his house the night before.

you couldn't see that quite so direct ly, of course, and you thought didn't like Ben, and there was some lack in me which made me fail to appreciate him."
 No; not that" Constance denied quickly. Not that, Henry"
 What was it then, Connie? You thought me ungrateful to him? l realize that I owed a great debt to him but the only way I could pay that debt was to do exactly what 1 did oppose him and seem to push into his place and be an ingrate: for because I did that, Ben's been respected and honored man in this town all these last years, which he couldn't have re- mained if I'd let him have his way, or if l told others why had to do what I did. didn't care what others thought about me but I did care what you thought; yet if you couldn't see what I was up against because of your affection for him, why-that was all right too"
 "No, 1t wasn't all right" she denied almost fiercely, the flush flooding her cheeks; a throbbing was in her throat which, for an instant, stopped her You should have told me, Henry; or -I should have been able to see."
 "I couldn't tell you-dear," he said the last word very distinctly, but so low that she could scarcely hear "I couldn't tell you nOw-if Ben hadn't gone away as he has and this other fellow come. couldn't tell you when you wanted to keep caring so much for your Uncle Benny. and he was try ing to hurt me with you"

 Her color rose, and her pulse quick. ened. Henry never had talked to her except In the merest commonplaces about his relations with Uncle Benny 1t was matter in which, she had rec ognized, they had been opposed; and since the quarrels between the old friend whom she had loved from child hood and he, who wished to become now more than a mere friend to her had grown more violent, she had pur- posely avoided mentioning Uncle Ben ny to Henry, and he, quite as con- sciously. had avoided mentioning Mr Corvet to her.

He recognized that himself even earlier, and admitted it to him. self when he took me off my ship to take charge of the company.
