Players of long ago to reunite


Advertiser Staff

A reunion of football players from the Interscholastic League of Honolulu of the 1950s will be held Aug. 29 at St. Louis Alumni Clubhouse.

The event will run from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m.

All ILH football players who played at Honolulu Stadium from 1950-59 can attend, along with ILH coaches of that era and players who played from 1940-49.

The old ILH consisted of four private schools ('Iolani, Kamehameha, Punahou and Saint Louis) and four public schools (Farrington, Kaimuki, McKinley and Roosevelt). The private and public schools split in 1970 with the public schools joining rural schools to form the O'ahu Interscholastic Association.

The cost is $30 per person, with entertainment provided by Melveen Leed.

For information, call Bobby Schmidt at 551-8033.
