Haiku Falls In
Fourth Inning
To Libertyites

Under the guiding arm of Senator
Harold Rice, the Rice Birds journey
ed to the Capitol City, Saturday night,
and on Sunday morning a few hours
after their arrival in Honolulu tackled
the Liberty House nine.
Haiku was out for revenge to ever
up the - inning defeat handed them
by the Liberty House on the occasion
of that aggregations visit to the Val
ly Isle.
But woe and more woe. Chartrand
entered the box for the local boys and
after going good for tthree innings
blew up. The count in that fatal
fourth canto was an ever five runs
and hits. Refs relieved the southpaw
after that frame and with the eXcep-
ton of one hit, a home run by Llama
the Liberty House left fielder, held the
department store nine hitless and
scoreless for the remainder of the
game.
Home runs by Keiki and Chris
Cockett, the latter clouting the ball
over the ~scoreboard in left field, fail
ed to save the game for Maui.
The play and score, according to the
Advertiser is as follows:
Liberty Scores First
Liberty House was the first to score.
After Haiku went out in order in the
first frame, Fernandez, first UP for the
locals. drew a pass from Lefty Chart
rand. An error by the Haiku first
sacker put Fernandez on third and
Wah Han on first, Kai Luke then
brought Fernandez home with a single.
The next three were out on snappy
plays.
Haiku tied the count in the third
when Keiki clouted a home run to
deep center. Then came the fourth
which proved fatal to Chartrand. In
that frame Hoon Cheong, first mar
up for the Liberties, walked and scor-
ed on Lewis hit to right. Low ad-
vanced to third on Lizama's double.
Yuen famed. Fernandez came through,
however, with a single, scoring Low.
Kai Luke's wallop brought Llama
home and Benham's timely double sent
Fernandez and Kai Luke pattering
over the pan. Five hits and five runs
were too much for the senator and he
lifted Chartrand in favor of Refs who
sports an underhand delivery.
With the exception of a home run
clout by LLAMA in the fifth Refs held
the locals hitless and scoreless there
after. Had he started for the visitors
perhaps that fourth would have been
written otherwise, but Their there is
no telling what will happen in a base
ball game.
Opportunity Missed
In the sixth the visitors had an OPP
portunity to draw abreast of the Liber-
ties when they managed to choke the
bases aided by a streak of wildness
on the part of Ed Low who walked two
men in succession. AS it was only
one man managed to cross the pan.
The Haiku's got their third n hnal
run in the eighth when Cockett belt
ed one for a homer, the ball going
over the score board in left field. This
hit gave Cockett a perfect batting
average for the game as he collected
three bingles in three times at bat.
The visitors made a desperate effort
to rally in the ninth but this sudden
burst of energy was nipped in the bud
by a fast double play engineered by
Wah Han, Kai Luke and Young Yuen.
Chartrand Wild
Lefty C~hartrand, who started for the
visitors. was a bit wild, besides being
hit hard in that fourth n He
walked three men but also managed
to fan five. Refs did much better fan
ming six, allowing but one hit and
failing to issue a pass. Ed Low was
A trifle off color in yesterdays game,
He issued five free tickets but over
balanced the sheet by tanning six.
