stand in the way of the visit of fast combination of players and mounts from the South American republic is the difficulty of securing direct trans portation at the proper. time of the year. According to communications which have passed between the North and South American players the inn pression prevails that the invading po- loists would be obliged to make the trip to this country via England. If if can be found that the Argentine team and ponies can make satisfactory steamship connections direct to New York the other arrangements are but minor details.
 Polo play in Argentine is no novelty and the type of mount game and play CT compares favorahly with the best of this country. The history of polo in Argentine dates back to the late eighties. as the Buenos Aires Hurling ham club was formed in 1888. Four years later the Polo Association Of the River Platte was organized with four teen clubs In 1893 an annual cham = pionship tournament was begun under the name of the River Platte cham pionship the title play being held each September.
 As d result of these championship series some very high class players have been developed among the la.gel ranch owners and their sons. Many of

CHICAGO, Feb. 15. (SpeciaD John Olin, the Finnish wrestler who defeat ed Joe Stecher in December, new hopes to win the heavyweight wrestling title Olin came into immediate prominence when he won from Stecher, who had been thought by many unbeatable on the mat. Previous to his defeat of Stecher he had scarcely been heard of.
 In Finland, Olin's native land. he had won great repute as a wrestler and had represented his people in the Olympic games at Stockholm in 1912. Coming to this country shortly after. Olin met Waino Ketonen, a middle weight wrestler he had known at home, and in working with him Olin learned many Of the fine points of -' catch as catch can style. having only known the Grae- co-Roman wrestling in Finland.
 In 1913 Olin had his first professioal match in America and won his first match of note when he defeated Dr. Roller in two falls in Woonsocket. R l., in 1914. Olins matches have been so few. however. that he has had littlo prominence in the game and when he defeated Joe Stecher at Springfield Mass, wrestling fans throughout the country were eager to know more about the new star.
 Olin declared after his match with Stecher that Joe's famous scissorhold, when he uses the grip of his legs to crush his opponents, was not so force full as he had expected and that it hurt him very little. He also said that he found 1t not difficult to break. Stech- CTS friends point out that Joe had in jured his legs in his bout with Cutler in this city a short time before. At any rate Olin seemed to have no difficulty In freeing himself from Stecher's fam ous grip. When Stecher pushed him off the mat several times and was a little rough in other ways, Olin de- clares that he lost his temper and picked Joe up bodily. slamming him down on the mat, his shoulders pinned. Stecher got to his feet, looked Olin over for moment and walked to his dress ing room.
 Olin is feet II inches tall and weighs 215 pounds in his best form Most of his weight appears to be in his neck. chest and shoulders He is remarkable for the muscular develop ment of these parts and seems to have greates strength than any mat hero of recent years. He is thirty years old.
 Olin is now making his headquarters here. though his home is in Worcester.

SCHOOL
 M|NCES MESA

Mesa's high school baseball team gave the Evans school squad a good practice tilt at Mesa yesterday, but that is about all. The latter team had no difficulty in earning an II to vic tory in game replete with sensational plays.
 Mesa played fairly consistent ball at that, but when the visiting team was not killing off rallies with fast double plays, some If its felders was making q sensational running catch that literally stole hits from the Mesa batterS.
 Probably the most sensational bit of fielding of the day was a one- handed running catch by Horne, left fielder for Evans. off the bat Of Menhennett. The ball was hit on a line drive to deep left center. Horne tearing over at top speed and spearing it from the air as it started it's decent.
 Both teams were wearing their bat ting eyes with the result that the fielders were given many opportunities to display their abilities
 Roberts and Krueger were the bat te-y partners for Evans school. while Riggs and Peterson performed foi Mesa. Each team was charged witl four errors.

the English settlers have taken up the game, with the same enthusiasm and traditions that govern polo at home and the game as played in the South American republic today will bear com parisons with that of both the United States and England. This was demon- strateG by the selection of John Traill as first substitute on the English team which captured the International Polo Trophy from the American four at Meadow Brook, l.. I in 1914.
 Traill is one of the family of polo players of that name which has ma de the game famous in Argentine. Play ing under the title of the North Santa Fe team, the four composed of John, Robert and Edward. three brothers and Joe Trail, a cousin, were virtually invincible until the death of Edward broke up the quartet. Within the past three years other players have been developed and with the Traills inter- ested a formidable four ought to be available for international competition should the Argentine association decide to send team to the United States.

PAST|MES BEAT
 GOLDBERG TEAM

Last night on the St. Elmo alleys, the Pastime bowling team walloped the Goldberg team for three straight games. This is the worst trimming the Goldberg team has ever taken, and it is the more noticeable, on account of the team doing the work being the PastimeS.
 Considering the fact that the Pas time team is composed of the younger and more inexperienced bowlers, it is considered marvellous the showing they have made this season. This showing of the junior team is liable to cause the other teams in the league to set up and take notice as it will not take many games Of this sort to win the championship.
 Tuesday night the Hanny team will meet the Goldberg team. This ought to be good as both teams are composed Of some of the best in Phoenix.

The Mike Gibbons Les Darcey ten round bout at Milwaukee will be one of the principal ring enga agements of the year.

probably will. Larry has batted the
small town pitchers with great VigOT,
but he has not taken many chances
in covering ground around the key
stone. This is because the diamonds
so far encountered have been hill
sides, useless for anything else.
Manager Mitchell is close
mouthed party and has not definitely
indicated the lineup of his Outfield.
Williams and Wolter appear assured
of stations, but the third berth is a
contest between Flack and Leslie
Mann. Mann has a game leg and
Flack is temporarily at work with
the first team.
Mitchell would like to use FIack in
the Iead-off position, but it is hard to
displace Mann, who was the best
fielder in the National at the close
of the 1916 parade. 1t may be that
both of these fellows will become
regulars in time, and one 1916 idol
will be shattered.
Flack had a superstitious hunch
last year that the van Of the batting
order was bad for him. He claimed
he could not hit effectively in that
position. But the fact remains that
Flack is one of the best walters on
the club and is also as good as any Of
the players once he reaches first
base.
Twenty-Five hits were made by the
regulars yesterday against Oklahoma
City. Doubles, triples and hOmers
were plentiful, and every man with
the squad contributed his bit. Deal,
continuing to hit in the cleanup
notch, poked a single, double and
homer. Doyle knocked two doubles
and single.

and Buck Herzog is indicative of the

the president of the league. And Il
the club runs out of opponents
among other outfits, they always
have themselves to furnish amuse-
ment. The collection of tempera-
ments under McGraw's wing is not
designed to go through a season in a
peaceful state. Cobb's victory lifts
him out Of the class of John Evers
and MCGraw. He has at last won
fight.
No action will be taken by the
league presidents regarding the bat
tie. The teams have arranged their
own truce and the game between the
Giants and Tigers was not under
control of the national commission.
In the roller hockey match be-
tween Racine and the Chicago ALI
Stars at Riverview last night a near
riot terminated the affair, which was
a One-tO-One tie. All bets were de-
clared off. Red Williams, a Chica-
