Polo Horse
Shamrock
Is a Whiz

The opening of the polo season
has been postponed for about
month, and a number of the polo en-
thusiasts of this Island will keep
their animals in condition by racing
them. Il. II. Lewis has a new horse,
Shamrock" by name, which he
thinks is going to be a whiz this
season. 1t is a stockily built animal
and is frisky and very full of life.
Yesterday afternoon Lewis pittcd
Shamrock against a Maui pony on
the Beach road, and the polo horse
showed his speed by running away
from his opponent Lewis is going
to race Shamrock for few weeks
until the season for polo draws near.
This may mean that there will be
another series of horse races at the
Kapiolani track.
There will be a bunch of now
horses in polo this year. Walter Dill
bingham brought down two trained
animals from the Coast recently, and
Mr.. Dennison and Dr. Baldwin will
probably import new horses. Three
or four of the players around here
are turning out regularly to get in
condition for the season.
