The ‘aerlal excitement was obtaln- ed by jumping off cliffs into the sea in home-made planes. The game, | for such it was, Is known as “l¢ pall,” literally “jumping from the clife." The late Willlam J. Coelho, form- er newspaper editor, legislator, his- torian and officer of the Hale'o na Alil o Hawali (House of Chlefs of Hawali) described the vanishing sport. The game was played with huge but ltght contrivances con- structed of stout sticks and over- woven with palm leaves, he sald. Several of these were made re; the Hawallan “aviators” boarded itheir crafts and were pushed from towering cliffs simultaneously, The aviator who remained in the air longest won the game. carelessnesy or over-excitement led one of the planes to execute a nose- dive similar to those encountered to- of the game. | 0Old Hawilans say their ‘“aces” were exceptionally skilful, Their rude appliances could be guided only by shifting the bodies of the aviators to maintain balance. Outrigger ca- noes were anchored off shore to pick up the competitors and retrive the “planes’.
