BIG POLO GAMES TO
START OFF TOMORROW
Sixteen Players Will Compete
for Honor of Defending
International Cup.

NEW YORK, March 31.-Sixteen polo
players will start play tomorro. after
noon in practice matches for the Ameri-
can team which will play in the inter-
national matches with England. These
entries will decide who will be selected by
the Polo Association to defend the inter-
national polo trophy. This series Of elm
ination contests will take place at George
Gould's Georgian Court. Lakewood, N. J.
For nearly a month games will be played
there every Tuesday. Thursday and Sat-
urday.
There viii be sixteen men in this tour
nament. The four players who show the
most skill in hitting the ball and manag-
ing their ponies will be selected to make
up the American team which will play in
the International series at the Meadow
Brook Club. Long Island, June 10 and IA.
The Polo Association. the custodian OF
the international polo cup has the power
to decide who shall play on the team. A
member of the committe of the Polo AS
ISOLATION Will be on hand during these
elimination games and will report to the
association the individual plays and the
scores made by each team. The selection
Of the defenders will be made from these
reports
While it is within the power of the
committee of the Polo Association to de-
eide who shall play on the American
team in the series. it is probable that the
team that won the cup at birmingham
in England, in 1909. and who success
fully defended it at Meadow Brook in
1911, will be again in the saddle this sea-
son. a
They are Lawrence Waterbury (No. u,

Payne Whitney (No. - and Devereux
Milburn (back). This quartet OF players
is known throughout the polo world as

It is possible. however. that not more
than twelve players will take part in thu

Of the best and in fact. the most reliable
hitter on the team in every way. Fury Is
a very Intelligent base ball player and
his loss will be severely felt. Until he ts
able to play regularly Coach Harley in
tends to use him as a pinch hitter and It
lis expected that he will prove himself
capable in this respect.
In the absence of Capt. Fury from the
lineup no field captain will be chosen. 1t
has been decided that. Fury Will direct

Flynn, the former Holy Cross nrst
baseman, was given a chance Saturday

of him that he played very good game.
He has practiced with the team for only
three days and was in no condition at
all to do himself justice. but. at that. he
did well. On every trip to the plate he
hit the ball hard, and he fielded his posi-
ton in a high-class manner. It would
not be one Bit surprising to see Flynn
play first base for the remainder or the
season.
Barron, who played right field in place
OF Capt Fury, made one timely hit which
resulted in scoring one run. ana helded
his position capably. Barron will, in all
probability. play right field while Capt.
Fury is out of the game.

FURY MAY NOT Be
ABLE TO PLAY MUCH
Georgetown Captains shouI-
der Prevents Him From
Throwing Well.

Capt. Fury of the Georgetown base
ball team in an interview stated yes
terday that he did not think that he
would be able to play regularly on his
team again this year. He injured his
arm in the second Princeton game
while making a quick throw from his
position in right field to cut off a run
ner at the plate. and 1T seems that he
pulled a ligament in his shoulder. 1t
is true that Fury had injured this same
arm playing foot ball last fall, but up
till the second Princeton game he was
able to throw ball with fair speed.
Capt Fury told Coach Harley of his
trouble and advised the coach to use
another man in his place Fury be-
lieved that by giving his arm a little
rest it would come around alright.
While the accident occurred only a
week ago. still the injured arm has
not mended in any way. and for this
ii has become strong enough to allow
physician. who could not find anything
wrong with his arm, and who advised
him to rest 1T for long time. With
rest it Is believed that he will fully
recover his former strength, and that
he will have no difficulty in throwing
at all.

present time in bad way. evil mean a

SPECIAL REACHES
THE MARLBORO TRACK
Brjnus Over a Hundred Thor

The Marlboro track exhibited a scene of
activity yesterday when the big special
steamed in from Charleston. bringing up
ward of 100 thoroughbreds for the OPEN
ing of the spring racing season ednes-
day afternoon Along in two Pulimans
came a number of prominent owners
trainers, jockeys and other followers OF
the ponies, who will attend the ten days
of sport i'm southern Maryland Every
thing was in readiness for the unloading
of the horses on scheduled time. and, 1t
was not long before almost every stan
was occupied by some well-bred equine.
It was a better lot of horses that were
led through the gates of the course stha1
had been expected by the officials OF the
association There was not enough stable
room for all, so a carload or two had to
be dropped off at Benning, where there is
a big band of horsemen in busy prepare
ton for the Inauguration of the coming
meet Right now it is estimated That
there are close on to 2O performers
with 800 or more in training at the old
stand of the Washington Jockey Club at
Benning.
Included in yesterdays arrivals were
N B. Davis, Jack Phillips, Matt Burns,
w. " Casey. w. G.. Westmoreland. Tom
Hatfield R. n. Haymaker, c. w. Wise,
w. Raymond, ]. c, Wagnon. r. Camp
bell. II. Warner and r. w. FOulk. These

and in the meeting will professionally
prove the classiest ever held over a half

belonging to Davis. There were an even
dozen in. the establishment, the chief Of
which are Sylvestris. Nash Cash and Bad

worked over the track yesterday than at
any time since the close of last falls
meeting. The track has been rounded
into good shape and the horsemen In
general are well pleased with the out
Hook for the meeting. Judging from the
caliber Of yesterdays arrivals and those
now at Benning. there will be an excel
lent lot of horses for both the purse and
handicap events.
