BRITISH POLO|STS
FAST IN PRACTISE
Show BewiIdering Speed and
Skill in Game With Piping
Rock Team.
MILBURN PLAYING AGAIN

The English polo team practised
yesterday AZ Piping Rock and gave
a display of a close formation defense
which could not well be equaled. The
two backs and two forwards alter
mated positions at times, while at
other times the three would circle
around Captain Ritson so that he
had full play for his shots.
From the middle of the field they
would allow the opponents-the Pip
Ing Rocks-to work the ball down to
the English goal, where Ritson and
Lockett would be found on the alert
to drive 1t back The plan never
missed fire and it was really Won
derful how near the pair would allow
the ball to come to the goal line
when they would scrape 1t away and
with a couple of wide passes send it
whistling out of danger.
Five goals went to the Englishmen
in this first chukker, and after that
it was a helter-skelter sort of a game
The final score for the full eight
ehukkers was III goals to in favor
of England.
For six chukkers the English team
remained together, but IN tine lasJ
two Cheape took the place of Won
slade ON the Piping Rocks, and
Beadleston played on the English
side. When the change took place
the score was 10 goals to l.
Considerable interest attached to
the practise, as Devereux Milburn
played No. for the Piping Rocks
and STAYED In for the full match The
American international back made
the very best shots for his side, and
he appeared to stay well.
Captain Edwards and his pony
came down in heap in the third
period. and for a moment it was
thought he might be injured. As
pony and rider rolled on the sward.
Mrs. Edwards, who was on the side
line screamed, but her excitement
subsidized in a moment when she saw
her husband jump to his feet and
remount the pony.

McCARTY'S DEATH STOPS
BOXING BILLS PASSAGE

CHICAGO, May 27.--The trigic end
ing of the Pelky-M cCarty fight AT
Calgary Saturday has killed the
chances of the boxing bill now pc
fore the Legislature. according to the
opinion of many local promoters who
yesterday disposed Of options on sew
eral halls which they had secured for
prospective boxing matches, depend
ent upon the success of the proposed
law authorizing boxing matches.
The fact that McCarty's death re-
suited from a bout in which the prin-
cipais wore eight-ounce gloves is
regarded by the friends of the bill
as an especial argument for its OPP
ponents Several religious organi-
cations have prepared to renew their
campaign against the pending legis-

Few looked for any brilliant show
ing. and the fact that four of the
six Yankees were beaten in the first
round accustomed little surprise The
two who escaped defeat in the first
round have long way to go and
while it would be one of the most
delightful happenings possible to
have either Weber, of Toledo, or
Schmidt, of Worcester come through
winner, the prospects are so du-
bious that hope in that line is very
doubtful. The defeat of John Ball,
the champion, was not unlocked for.
Ball has been ailing lately and he
played against the advice of his ply
stefan. He was beaten only one up
at that, but in his present condition
he could hardly hope for ultimate
success in such trying competition
as the tourney always proves to be.
G.
Ten Point, the $4,000 sensational
colt, which was looked upon as hav-
ing most of the big 3-year-old stakes
at his mercy, was beaten again yes
terday, this time, as last. by an out
slider in the betting. Carrying 10
pounds Ten Point was the natural
choice in the kentucky Handicap.
and the $12. 155 which went to the
winner was sufficient inducement for
every effort; but the Aste horse
couldn't do the trick, finishing Sec
ond to Rudolfo which was a remark
ably good race. The defeat of Ten
Point puts new light on the g.
year-old situation When the Aste
entry was beaten in the Kentucky
Derby by Donerail, excuses were in
order, yet after the race yesterday
some tall searching will have to be
done to unearth a real, presentable
alibi Another disappointment this
season has been Foundation, which
was nowhere in the Derby and which
was nowhere in the handicap. Sur
prises in horse racing are common,
of course, but it has been some time
since such a good horse as Ten
Point has been shown and then found
wanting. Even the very clever Kin
ley Mack" will find it difficult to ex-
plain away Ten Points defeat.

feated some Of the principal preparatory

only teams Of any note she has not
played are Georgia Military College and
Gordon, Riverside defeated Gordon de
cisiVely and tied Georgia Military Col

decision over these two teams
I'VE regret very much that we had
TO cancel game with Gordon on sC-
count of a conflict in dates with the

piOnship such a game could not have
