The Polo Season.
In Sports
For some weeks past the polo enthu
siasts have been putting in some stre
nuous practice every Saturday after
noon nn at the Sunnvsido nolo field.

Honolulu, for the inter-island cham
pionship matches, and from all ap
pearances the team this year will ho
the heat ever sent out of Maui. The
team as chosen will bo: No. 1, A.
.V. Collins; No 2, Harold Rico;
No. 3, F. F. Baldwin: No. 4, Dave
Fleming.
Many new men have como out
this year, and while nono of them
have shown speed enough to make
the team, still they arc all working
strenuously on the second team, in
an effort to give the first team the
hard practice they need in order to
perfect their play.
When the Maui team comes back
with the championship tho second
team will share in the triumph, as
they will have the satisfaction of
knowing it was their untiring efforts
which helped make the team what
it is.
Maui has always gone on the
field well mounted, but this year
they are better off in this respect
than ever. Several new ponies are
being worked and when the cham-
ship series is played these new
ones together with the tried veterans
will have the speed to carry tho
team to victory-

Of all games lawn. tennis appears
to afford tho only exception to tho
rule "youth will be served.'' Youth
takes a back seat on the tennis courts
and age and experience combine to
hold the upper baud. Though this
game calls for the agility of youth
more strongly than any other sport,
the veterans appear able to offset
this quality which is plainly against
them with craftiness and stroke
control, which can only be acquired
through long terms of hard practice.
