at Narragansett.

NARRAGANSETT PIER, r. l., August
.9.-As the second round was finished in
the one-day handicap at the Point Judith
Polo Club, the pony of P. s. P. Randolph,
jr-, of the Philadelphia Country Club four,
slipped under him, and as his wrist was
sprained. the tie at 81 goals with the
Wanderers was not played of, the latter
team entering the final by default and
winning out from the Fish Catchers in
that round by 3 to IL. While not severely
hurt, Randolph will not be on the Coun-
try Club team in the second round OF the
junior championship against kansas City,
and e. Lowber Stokes will take his place.
There were six teams in yesterdays
tournament, and all played their games
SO that the finals were settled by Gas
o'clock. The Back River team OF Carter
Vile. P. O.. lost in the first round to the
philadelphia Country Club. which later
dropped out on account of young RAN
dolph's fall. The Fish Catchers beat the
Freebooters in the first round, land also
the Magpies In the second. but lost to the
wanderers, who were a formidable COM
bination in the final round.
The one-day affairs serve to bring out
all the teams not engaged in the big
matches. and the unattached players are
a successful innovation for the Wander
ers. James Park was No. 1. Thomas LIE
I
n. Gatkins back, while for the Fish
Catchers the line was w. Russell Grace
Lieut.. G. Johnson, ]. c. Rathborne and
Harry NJ Half. Twice during the after
noon player inadvertently scored q goal
that counted against his side. The UNI
lucky offenders were B. K Gatkins and
Harry NJ. Half, but each made enough
telling plays to wipe out the mishaps.
The bay mare ridden by w. Plunkett
Smith Wednesday afternoon had to be
shot yesterday morning. as it broke a leg
In two places. 1t was not known at first
that the injury was q severe one.
