AMERICANS
 FAVORED TO
 WIN AT POLO

Westbury, L. T., June 13-Society folks the sportsman and the casual spectator. thousands all told, turned toward the Meadowbrook Club today, to witness the opening game of the International Polo series. The fours of England and America were to do battle on the springy ground of the club for the international polo cha1- lenge cup. Six matches have hereto fore been played for the trophy and each nation has won three of them. This time, however. as has been the case before in recent years, the Brit ons came as the challengers-
 Before the game the Americans ruled strong favorites at odds of 10 to 6. The line-ups were as follows:
 England-No. 1, Captain H. A. Tompkinson; No. 2. Captain L. St. G. Cheape; No. 8, Major F. Barrett; back, Captain Vivian Lockett; substitute, Lord Wimbornes John A. -Tra.i1.
 America-No. 1, Rene Montague; No. 2, J. M. Waterbury; No. 8, Devo- reux MiIburn; back, Lawrence Water bury; substitutes, c. c. 'Ralsey; Nal colm Stevenson, H. c. Phipps.
 Referee, Louis B. Stoddard of New Haven; umpires,~ Joshua Crane, Bos- ton, and Keith B. Markham, Cairo. Egypt

WELLS RETAINS HIS
 ENGLISH POPULARITY

Seldom has a defeated champion re- tained his popularity as Bombardier Wells does in England and the lanky heavyweight ought to be considered as the luckiest man in the game at the present time. He has signed up with Colin Bell of Australia for a 20 round bout this month in London, the purse being stated to be worth $10. 600. The clash is scheduled for 20 rounds, but is pretty certain not to last more than ten. Bell, in his last contest, with Joe Jeanette. showed good form and~ many consider that he is sure to beat Wells. His punching powers are greater than the Britisher's and he does not show effects of a blow so much as Wells. The two defeats which Carpenter handed Wells seemed to take all the confidence out of him.

ZIMMERMAN MAY BECOME
 GIANT SOON

There was a healthy rumor on the Polo Grounds yesterday that the New orl, and Chicago clubs are trying to frame up a deal to bring Zimmerman to the Giants. It was rumored that Grant and Fromme would go to the Cubs for the exchange for the Bronx gat1ing gun.
 There is no doubt that McGraw would welcome such a trade, not withstanding the fact that Grant at the present time is hitting much bet ter than Zimmerman. However, Zim- merman is a. high class player. and un- der a severe disciplinarian like Mo Graw he would become second Wag- ner. F'rommc has been keen disap- pointment since McGraw forked over Ames, Devore and Groh for him last season, and it is unlikely that he would improve any in a Cub uniform.

 So little authentic news regarding the champions condition leaks out that one hardly knows how to write of the big match have several Iioorrespondents on the other side, but lstheir stories do not agree at all That [ is about the negro's condition. One writes that Johnson is in splendid shape, that he has been working hard for months past, while in the same mail came another letter advis- ing me-to take a betson Moran-sin- ply because Johnson would not be fit to fight at all. Johnson wrote Jim Cohroth, the San Francisco promo ter, recently that he is in splendid condition and it. to put up the battle of his career. Also that he expect ed to make short work of Moran. Of course, one must not place too much conadence in anything Johnson might say. He is a conceited indf- viduaI whose good opinion of him self must be Hberal1y discounted by those who want to take a flyer on the match. Johnson may be kidding Conroth at that, and kidding him self at the same time. Who can tell? We will know more about it in a cou- pie of weeks.
