WESTERN -FOUR WINS
Kansas City Team Makes Bow
and Defeats Soldiers.
VELIE SETS GOAL RECORD
Philadelphia Freebooters Victors in
Tournament at Nara
gansett Pier.

26.-All the four games here Yesterday. at
| the Point Judith Polo Club, were good,
but interest centered especially in the
appearance of the Kansas City team, the
first to come from the west to a cham
pionship tournament, which met the
Point Judiths, four made up of Wash
lngton army officers. 1t was a. lively
game, and although the westerners had
a good theory of team work, they came
near to throwing away somewhat easy
| victory over the veteran soldiers. For
| their recklessness in crossing caused no
| less than six fouls to be laid on them
| but it helped to cancel matters when
| the referee imposed two similar penalties
against Johnson of the army four. The
| Kansas City four won by a score of Az
! to "a goals.
Mr.. Velie. sr., of the winners made a
worlds record for snapshot goals. getting
| no less than three from throW-ins after
! only 40, 40 and 35 seconds. respectively
| His son, HON, was the next best aid to
/ land was also able. The Kansas City
men may go far into their class for they
are neat hitters. This game was for the
overture cups. and in the second for
these prizes the Philadelphia Freeb ooters
beat the Philadelphia Country Club four
without difficulty, giving a goal and scor-
| ing II to ~ goals.
| The special match between the Piping
Rock and Parroquet tours was brilliant
at intervals, and brought out for review
the new mounts brought over by Balding
and Craddock Gill. Piping Rock received
, goals handicap and won by score of j
| to J goals. To give 8 goals handicap to
the Dedhams was too much for the Mead
ow Brooks, for, while the Waterburys
We're in fine trim and Reynal a great
help. 1t was not vim day for Loew,
and he was often standing over the ball
| instead of sending it along. Shaw was
very strong for Dedham, and while he
and Amory did the scoring, all were well
in the game. Crane is the sure hitter
in the land on either side Of the pony-a
faculty possibly due to court tennis-but
he does no great distance, especially
when the turf is lumpy.
