exotic from India originally, polo has now
gained a firm place in the equestrian
men adore it, 1t is too often played for
fashion rather than sports sake at our
country clubs
The best OF the British ponies are
thoroughbreds and especially good under
weighty men. They have the burst Of
speed often needed in a match; are
nimble. enduring and courageous. The
English turf is heavier and softer than
in this country, a factor that in other
campaigns has been against the light
Western ponies; but this time the Amer
leans have a superior lot of ponies. H. p,
Whitnev brought from England last fall

Meadow Brook mounts. These are West

There is a story in this. More than ten
years ago the late William c. Whitney made
a purchase Of ten or twelve California
bred. with rare beauty and speed. He
transferred them to a ranch in Wyoming
famous for its polo ponies. on an arrange
ment as to their breeding and the choice
OF the produce. The ranchnian had
learned bv experience that the three
quarters thoroughbred used FOR polo
has nerves and quality to burn. but Is
often lacking in steadiness-more fdgets
than brains, in other words. To counter
act this he has been breeding the Cali
fornia ponies to a trotter Of the right
conformation that has a record under
2:3O and is by a thoroughbred from a
standard bred trottinR mare. The union
has produced a very good POLO pony,
and the best from this ranch are IN tie

RAM is that they have all played before
In the United Kingdom and understand
the differences in the game here and
abroad. H. P. Whitney. the captain, has
always gone over for the grouse shooting
and incidental polo; j. NJ. Waterbury, Jr..
and Lawrence Waterbury we're IN the
American team Of 1902. and Devereaux
Milburn is an Oxford graduate and played
In the varsity matches at birmingham and
elsewhere. Louis E.. Stoddart. who too
part in practice matches before the ar
rival Of Milburn. belongs to the New
Haven Polo Club. He had been playing
the game on the Riviera throughout the
winter and took his ponies to Nottingham
for a few bouts with the ball.
Anumper Of Americans who have posed
In England as the pillars Of our polo have
no doubt had their collective noses put
out of joint by the independent methods
OF the Meadow Brook Club. The chal-
lengers have not sought or permitted
any coddlins from the ex~patriates. Frank
j. Mackay Of Chicago, who has for years
lived in southern California in the winter
and as a hunting squire in England the
rest OF the year-a sporting bird of pas
~sage-has sold all his fine ponies to a
birmingham member. but only on CON
dition that they shall moi be used against
the American team" The act may not
be entirely due to pique, it must be said.
for Mackay has not been in good health
since the Coronado Country Club tour
nament in March. He had induced an
English team to attend and also a team
from the East. but Mackay had a fall in
one Of the matches and had to quit
playing. One Of his hobbies has been
to organize an American team to win
back the cup. and if not to play on it to
be at least the manager.
Another American identified with Brit
ish polo who has not been consulted this
time is Foxhall p. Keene. who, however,
sold out his ponies at auction two years
ago and may not have cared to play.
Paul j. Rainey paid such record prices
as $500 and $4,000 for the ponies. which
have not seer heard much of since. and
Keene has had ample time to get together
another set Of mounts. For many sea
sons Keene played on the Rockaway
team, but for three years-indeed, ever
since it has been rumored that H. P.
Whitney was to challenge-he has been
on the Meadow Brook list. WAS it
ohagrin." ask the poloists here, that
caused Keene to declare in an interview
that the Rockaway is a better team than
Meadow Brook
What do the records cay? The Meadow
Brook team beat Rockaway for the Great
Neck cup last season; a similar result hap
pened in the final for the Philadelphia
Country Club cups; the Meadow Brook
second team beat Rockaway first for the
Hampstead cups, and in the final for the
Meadow Brook cups the first team did the

Soulline is without doubt the most

category. because 1t possesses one great
advantage over the other forms OF aquat-
les, and that is it's adaptability to per-
sonal requirements. II a man happens to
own g single shell he can go to the river
any time his fancy dictates and take a
spin. and should he be victorious in a race
the honor and glory is all his own. Row
ing in a crew it is totally different. for
then a man has to be dependent on the
others as to time and method Of work.
while the whole crew is often upset by
the non-appearance OF n man.
It Is singular that OF the thousands
who have been expert at the game so
very few have written anything Of value
to the beginners and those who would
want to improve their style. Somehow
those who knew kept the secrets to them
selves, and their theory seemed to be that
those In need OF instruction should be left
to get 1t by experience only. Opposed to
this idea. however. is II. T. Blackstaffe.
