FORM A NEW POLO CLUB
Ground Already Broken for
Field Near the Gedney Farm.

At meeting of wealthy New York
men at the Gedney Farm Hotel, White
Plains. last night il was decided to form
a new polo club for Westchester County.
oliver Hartman l.. Ward Prince. Rob-
ert e. Farley, Howard Willets. George
r. Leith and d. ". Maloney are among
those interested At Gedney Farm, oppo-
site the Gedney Farm Country Club,
Davies Taintor. a well known polo player,
has already broken ground for the new
field. He has accumulated a string Of
well trained ponies. and some good sport
is looked for.
Westchester County has no polo club, and
II is believed that the formation OF the
new organization will attract many polo
players. No better location could be Sc
lected for the course. as II will be possible
for visiting teams to have quarters at the
Gedney Farm Hotel and their mounts
can be taken care of In the Gedney Farm
stables.
