AMERICAN POLOISTS
WIN FROM BRITONS
Second Defeat of British Team by the
Meadowbrook Club of Long Island
Brings Trophy Across the
Water

LONDON, July 5.-The Meadow
brook, L. l., polo team, composed of
Lawrence Waterbury, ]. M. Water
bury. jr., P. H. Whitney and Dever-
eaux Milburn. won the second match
played here today for the American
polo cup, to 2. The first game was
won by the Americans June 10, and as
the cup was to go to the side winning
two out of three matches the visitors
by their victory of today have gained
the trophy for America.
A crowd which numbered 5000
cheered the Americans when the final
result was proclaimed, and again when
the quartet of players who have car
ried everything before them since they
arrived in England, went up to the
royal stand to receive the cup, which
has been in England's possession for
many years.
The Meadowbrooks scored early in
the first half, and a rousing cheer
went UP when England evened mat
ters by securing a goal with penalty
hit. From that on the English team
never had a chance, three more goals
going to the Meadowbrooks in quick
succession before the bell rang for
half time.
Three more goals were added soon
after play was resumed in the second
half, while England got her only other
score Just before the last interval. This
was followed by still another goal for
the visitors.
The Prince and Princess of Wales
heartily congratulated the Americans
on their victory.
The history of the American polo
cup, which now returns to the United
States after an absence of twenty-three
years, is not like the history OF the
yacht cup, which English yachtsmen
have so unsuccessfully attempted to
win back from America.
The polo cup was first given in 1886
on the occasion of a visit to the United
States of a strong English team. Tho
best of the American teams was quite
incapable of defeating the Englishmen
and thus the trophy went to England,
where it has remained ever since.

LANeFoRp IN TRAINING

NEW YORK, July 5.-Sam Langford
has begun hard training for his ten
round fight with big AL" Kubiak, the
Michigan giant, at the Fairmont ciun
here next Friday night. Kubiak is the
only man in this section who has had
the nerve 20 tackle Langford since MS
defeat of Ian Hague for the Engllsh
heavyweight championship.
When Langford and Kubiak fought a
six-round bout in Philadelphia Lang
ford was not in condition and hnblaK
staved the distance. He was forty
pounds heavier than Langford. This
time Langford, who will weigh about
1855, while Kubiak will tip the beam at
200 or more, is going to try to put his
man away. Langford says he Is anx-
ious to show New Workers why Jack
Johnson. Al Kaufman, Ketchel and
others are afraid to fight him, and will
use Kubiak for demonstrating pur-
poses.

Gross MAKES EXCUSES

NEW YORK, July 5.--Leach Cross,
who was knocked out in forty-one
rounds by Dick Hyland at Colma, mas
arrived home, and declares a change
in his fighting tactics. Hereafter he
says he will engage in no long battles,
but will confine his efforts to ten-round
bouts in this city. Cross says the CAL
ifornia climate had a good deal to do
with his defeat. Hyland is expected
here in a few days, and one of the To-
cal clubs will offer ten-round bout
with Cross. Such fight would excite
more than local interest, as the sup
porters of the local man believe he can
win on points in such limited go.
