[7 1 FIFTY GOLDEN OCC YEARS by EDWIN NORTH MCCLELLAN Time is valuable in terms of what you do with it. Measured by that stand- ard the first half-century of the Outrigger Canoe Club is worth its weight in the most precious element. OCC members have ennobled the Polynesian Ancestors of the Club. We begin the Second Half-Century as a unique Hawaiian Club! I give you below a few—too few, indeed—reminders of gone days. We can learn only from past OCC years! EDWIN N. MCCLELLAN
Taking up where the Polynesian-Hawaiian surfers left off the Hawaiian Haoles en- hanced their aquatic heritage. Outriggering and surfboarding never declined at Wai- kiki. The slogan was, and is, "Surfing will always be at Waikiki!" During the years prior to the OCC's birth there were many who kept the Sport of Kings alive at Wai- kiki. A few of the many were Princess Kaiulani, Arthnr M. Brown, Alatau Leonard, Charles Atkinson, Sanford Ballard Dole, James F. Morgan, Dr. Alford C. Wall, Har- old Hustace, Harry Steiner, fames McCandless, Kenneth Brown, Duke Paoa Kahana- moku, Vince Genoves, Dad Center, F. L. Waldron, Lane Webster, Lucius Eugene Pinkham, H. P. Wood, Ernest A. Mott-Smith, H. L. S. Herbert, Henry P. O'Sullivan, Prince Kuhio (Cupid), Richard H. Trent, Kenny Winters, Charles R. Frazier, f. P. Cooke, Henry R. Macfarlane, J. R. Gait, George P. Macfarlane, Walter Francis Dillingham and hundreds of other Hawaiians and haole kamaainas. There was no "Hawaiian Outrigger Canoe Club" in Sept.-Oct. 22, 1903 (Forecast November, 1957, 23).

A fleet of outriggers from OCC and Kamehameha Aquatic Club went out on July 16, 1908, to escort the U. S. Atlantic Fleet battleships to anchorage or dock. The Club, in conjunction with the Fleet Committee, entertained the personnel of the Fleet with an "open house," and an elaborate Fleet Regatta at Waikiki. Probably the first outrigger canoe race of the OCC was in this Regatta when the Malolo, captained by Harold Hustace, lost to the Hawaiian-crewed Lei llima. However, the OCC in the same Malolo (Atherton Gilman, Lane Webster, Ken- neth Brown, Zen Genoves) won the four- paddle race. There were many other events.
