Polo In the Islands is likely to sus-
tain a big boost. Fifteen Of the live
Hest ponies ever seen here were
brought in this morning by the Amer
ican-Hawaiian steamer Virginian,
and as soon as the troops are located
at Leilehua the officers will begin Or
ganizing a team.
The regiment has been so scattered
during the past few years that 1t has
been impossible to organize a strong
team. and, though some excellent
players are numbered among the
younger officers of the two squadrons
which will be located here, few of
them have ever played together.
Most OF the ponies which. the Fifth
Cavalry has brought are green ami
mails, with little or no schooling.
They were all selected by good judges
however. and all give promise Of max
ing excellent mounts for players.
II is probable that, as soon as the
troops are settled at Leilehua and the
officers have a little leisure on their
hands the work OF schooling the po-
MES will begin. Then practice will
begin. and, before long. a crack team
will undoubtedly be organized from
among the wearers Of the yellow
shoulder straps.
with a bang-up team right here on
the Island as a competitor, local polo
enthusiasts will have some induce
ment to get out and practice. and
there will doubtless be wild scurry
for likely ponies during the next few
weeks. The result will be some
matches such as will fill the heart OF
the polo fan with Joy.
