KALAWAO WINS IN MOLOKAI LEAGUE In an exciting game which almost ended In a riot Kalawao won the league championship last Saturday in the first baseball series ever played at the leper settlement. The schedule . finished, a new Merles is already being planned. In addition Supt. McVeigh has arranged the latest sport for his charges and on his return to the settlement will take two ping pong sets with him to the Baldwin Home. The lepers outside this institution will make their own ping poiig sets from the models brought alonsr by the superintendent. McVeigl- who returned Tuesday night frm Molokai reports the concluding game In the baseball series to be one oUXhe hottest oa record. Six games j h.1 Vbeen played by the Kalaupapas and, l&rtwaos, each having won an even rumber. and Saturday's game was to decide the winner or tne v pre. game Saturday was hotly contested all the way through, and at the beginning of the ninth Inning stood nine to. nine, with darkness fast approaching. After the Ka'auP38 nad had tneir turn ' the bat without scoring, the captain or that teani bekan to complain of the darkness. The first ball pitched to the Kalawaos netted two bases and then the captain of the Kalaupapas insisted that the game be called. The umpire, an cx-pollceman from Honolulu, re fused to do so until the end of the In ning, and ordered the game to proceed. The Kalaupapas refused to abide by the decision and left the field, the um pire declaring the game forfeited to Ka lawao by a score of nine to nothing. In spite of the objections of the Ka laupapa sympathizers the umpire stucn to his decision, almost precipitating a riot, but the money was paid to Ka- 1-.. xt Voltrh. The new league which is being plan ned will have three teams and the con test will therefore be more interesting. The lepers are taking a lively interest In the game, and where at first only .1 onruarnl on the field, last Saturday's concluding contest was at tended by ever four nuncreu BUSINESS LOCALS.
