It is said that our polo managers
are becoming worried over our polo
team. Changes are being made in
the line and the substitution of Fox
hall Keene for Phipps didn't seem to
help matters any. The old trio of
Monte Waterbury, Larry Waterbury
and Devereux Milburn is still intact,
and the nursing one, Harry Payne
Whitney, may eventually come into
the breach. The fact that Keene got
in the big team even for minute
created more than a little surprise,
especially among those who know the
situation between the Keene and the
Whitney factions. But Keene, it
seems, didn't make good, and it can
now he said, for society's sake, that
Foxhall was at least given chance.
Although Whitney has played mighty
little polo, it might be at the last
minute he viii decide to get into the
saddle. He promised not to play last
time, but when the old bell rang,
Harry Payne was there in his saddle
o.
So, from whispers here and there,
the English poloists are not the only
ones disturbed by social friction. The
whitney Keene feud dates back to
the days of the rich Futurity, in
which Ballyhoo Bey, the Whitney
horse, defeated Tommy Atkins,
| Olympian and Cap and Bells, all
| three of which carried the Keene
colors. Tod Sloane was on Ballyhoo
| Bey, and it is claimed there was
some humping. FoXhall Keene be-
came thoroughly aroused when the
judges refused to disqualify the
| Whitney horse, and then and there
! began a GOODNESS that developed into
! frigidity as years rolled on. With
Whitney in command of the polo
situation, it would indeed be mag
unanimous if Keene were allowed to
make the American team in the inter-
national match. 1t is said, though,
that Harry Payne Whitney isn't that
kind of a fighter.
