LAST SUNDAY'S
SOCCER GAMES
Two corking good games of
soccer wore played last Sunday,
though the rain had somewhat of
a dampening effect on one of them.
The IAhm-Mclirijdc Game
The first game, between Liliue
and McBryde, j at Lilme Park,
brought joy to the hearts of the
home fans, as Lihue won a decis
ive victory over the visiting team
by scoring one in the first periol,
and two in the second,ns against
nothing for McBryde, thus glori
ously redeeming themselves for the
somewhat spiritless game they
played against Kawaihau the Sun
day previous.
In the first period Lihue had a
still' wind to buck, but managed to
keep the ball in McBryde territory
most of the time, and in about
twenty minutes of play Manuel
Fernandez, with a well placed
kick, shot the ball, by the goal
keeper for the first point.
In the second period McBryde
went in to even up matters, but
Liliue had pep to spare this day
and gave the visitors no chance to
score. On the other hand, Lihue
missed several shots that should
"have scored goals by not taking
account of the wind and over
shooting. Ca'ptain Ilutton was the next
Liliue player to distinguish him
self by shooting a goal. Lihue got
a corner kick which Ilutton re
ceived and made a try for goal.
The ball was intercepted, however.
but Ilutton was right on his toes
and followed up with another try
which proved a grand success.
About two minutes later Manuel
Fernandez covered himself with
glory by shooting his second goal
for the day.
This ended the scoring and plac
ed Lihue in second place. Although
McBryde lost the game, th'ey still
head the list with six points to
their credit, with Liliue a close
second with five points.
This was another ideal game
from a sporting standpoint. It was
absolutelv clean of intentional
rough play, nor was there any
dissatisfaction shown at the de
cisions of the umpire. A Siebel
umpired the game and performed
this dutv in iiis usual excellent
manner.
The Makawdi-Kamiihau Game
The Makaweli-uawaihau game
took place at Kapaa and ended in'
a tie, witli no scoring done. This
was, without doubt, the hardest
fought game of the seasoffj-though,
from a spectacular standpoint, it
did not amount to much, as inter
mittent showers throughout the
game made the ball wet and slip
pcry consequently very little
good kicking (of the ball) was
done (though there was no lack of
the verbal kind).
Makaweli was badly handicap
lied bv having to play several
green men. On the other hand
Kawaihau put up a great scrap
and seemed to have a shade the
better of the argument, as they
kept the ball in the visitor's terri
f tory most of the time, though they
could not come through witli the
liecessarv troal. A. Seibel also
umpired this game.
Doiiblv-IIcader A'crt Sunday
t Next Sunday there will be a
double-header at Eleele. Lihue
will meet up witli Makaweli at 2
o'clock and McBryde and Kawai
ban will play at 3:150.

Kapaa Notes j
Mr. Jacob Y. Woo, recently a
chemist with Pepeekeo Sugar Com
pany of Pepeekeo, Hawaii, arrived
ast week to take the position of
night chemist with Makee Sugar
Company. Mr. Woo is a graduate
if the College of Ilawaii and is the
on of the Hev. Y P. Woo, of Ho
ndlulu.
The Kapna school garden is in
line condition and the local vege
tarians as well as others who are
not fortunate enough to have a
vegetable garden of their own, will
soon' be able to satisfy their wants
by paying a visit to this garden of
plenty.
Mr. Geo. II. ICayniond reports
that all the Kapaa school teachers
who were attacked with influenza,
have fully recovered.
Although the tin has apparently
departed for other fields so far as
this district is concerned, the local
theatres and schools are still clos
ed due to the belief of the Govern-
tiientphysieinn that this method
lessens the spread of the disease.
Local opinion, however, is that
this continued closing, particular
ly that of the Kapaa school, is not
justified, as Honolulu, with its
theatres and other places of
amusement running wide open and
its schools, which are many times
more crowded than on Kauai, open
as usual, has only about 15000 cases
of flu, whereas Kauai, with its
schools und theatres all in the in
fected districts closed, has almost
0000 cases according to last re
ports. Dr. Patterson, when asked
vesterdav as to when the ban
would be lifted stated that so far
as Ins information went, Dr.
Kuhns is the only person who had
t lie authority to reopen the local
school and theatre, as he was given
no instructions with reference to
this matter when Dr. Kuhns left
for Honolulu.
Many local residents were for
tunate enough to be given the
chance to see four submarines sail
past Kapaa on Thursday. These
underwater craft were out for a
cruise from their base at Pearl
Harbor.
SUBS VISIT KAUAI
Four submarines cruising from
the Pearl Harbor base, anchored
for a while at Nawiliwili last
Thursday evening. This the sec
ond visit the subs have paid the
Island in the last few months.
HANALEI HAS FLU VICTIM
Hanalol registers its first real case
and death of flu. A Japanese resident
there came to Lihue to attend a flu
funeral here, and returning, carried
with him the contagion which carried
him off a few days later. The prem
ises where ho lived are quarantined
:o:
DR. RUTH McKELLAR AT KOLOA
Dr. Ruth McKeller came over from
Honolulu last week at the instanco of
the Hoard of Health to assist Dr. Wat-
erhouse in handling the flu situation
on that side of the Island. Dr. Water-
house Is now confining his services to
the Eleel- Uanapepe region, where tlio
epidemic Is at its worst, while Dr. Mc
Keller takes care of the Koloa end
play exhibited at these games, and
it is expected that a record crowd
will be present.

Plans To Open Up
New National Parks
Plans for opening up national
parks in Hawaii were discussed at
a conference Friday between Hor
ace M. Albright, assistant director
of national parks, who arrived last
Tuesday on the Wilhclniina, aud
Acting Governor Iaukea, Acting
Attorney General Lightfoot, Land
Commissioned Bailey and repre
sentatives of the Chamber of Com
merce and the Tourist Bureau,
says the Advertiser.
Mr. Albright, who intends to re
main in the Territory , for several
mouths, will leave soon for Ha
waii to look over the Kilauea
National Park and then go to
Maui to inspect the Haleakala
National Park. He will be accom
panied by Charles .1. .ludd, ex
ecutive officer of the board of ag
riculture and forestry, and in Ha
waii will be assisted by George II.
Vicars of Hilo, representing the
Chamber of Commerce, while
Worth Aiken will aid in the in
spection of Haleakala. When Al
bright goes to Kauai, he will be
assisted by William II. Kite, Jr.
He is expected to come to Kauai
about April lo'th.
Data to help in obtaining an ap
propriation from Congress for t lie
upkeep and improvement of nat
ional :.arks in the Territory is Al
bright's objective. One of the
problems to "be solved is the ex
change of government land outside
of the forestry reserves for privately-owned
land within them.
Much of the detail work of these
exchanges will be in hands of the
governor's office. The Bishop est
ate, for instance, has agreed to ex
change laud valued at 52,000
witli in the reserves for equally
valuable land outside of it, the
Territory already having been an
thorized by congress to make the
exchange.

the processional at the end of tho Ha
waiian Mission Centennial pageant
drama at Hocky Hill, on the afternoon
of Tuesday. April 13, will have a dou
ble honor, for on that day His Hoyal
Highness, the Prlnco of Wales, will be
In attendance as a special guest of
honor. The Knualans, as well as the
other Islanders, will pass before tho
heir to the British throne, and bo will
not only see him but be seen, creating
a memory that will be worth while In
years to come.
The processional of the pageant
drama is entirely distinct from the
civic and industrial parade, to consist
largely of floats, which will be held
Thursday afternoon, April 15. The two
have been confused to some extent.
Miss Ethel Damon's Invitation to
Kauai organizations to send at least
two representatives for the "proces
sional," Is for the final climax of the
pageant on April 13.

BIG DRIVE TO START IN APRIL
Tho united financial campaign for
the Kauai Y. M. C. A., Kauai boy
scouts and tho public school athletic
league, which was to have been put
on a month previous will now be car
ried forward to tho first week in
April. Although the flu situation is
still somewhat of a hnndicap In car
rying out the plans of the committee,
still it is believed that Kauai people
can bo relied upon to support these
institutions without exacting details
necessary in less understood causes.
Tho Y has issued a very attractive
report in the form of an Illustrated
folder and suitable posters of Infor
mation about tho boy scouts and the
school athletic leagues will soon ap
pear. The amount that will be asked
tor in this united drive will bo $13,
850. :o :
NOT A MISTAKE
On the faco of It the census figures
for Kauai, aa published in this lssuo,
would seem to bo misleading In giv
ing Koloa a larger population than
Lihue. An appeal to the census sup
ervisor brings back tho assurance
however, that the figures aro correct.
