CALLED POLO MOUNTS
New Nomenclature Adopted by
National Horse Show.
Association Raised Height Limit to
Conform With Requirements of
Army-ProbIem of Supply
is Thereby Slmplified.

Polo mounts" not polo ponies" as
of old, was the caption over the COM
petitions that most interested follow
ers of the galloping game in the prize
lists for the thirty-frst national horse
show, recently held at Madison Square
Garden.
1t was at the prompting of William
Hazard, secretary and treasurer of the
Polo association and president of the
Rockaway Hunting club, that the new
nomenclature has been adopted by the
National Horse Show association COM
mittee. He requested that the term
polo mounts" be substituted for
''polo ponies" in the prize list and
catalogue hereafter. There are two
classes for polo mounts, respectively,
for light and heavyweight mounts. In
each the judging will be for manners,
hardness and conformation and the
owner or polo club member must be
in the saddle.
At the annual meeting of 1914 the
Polo association voted to raise the
height limit, mainly to conform with
the requirements of the army and
thereby simplify the problem of
government supply of mounts for
army players. The new rule was:
"Mounts-The height of mounts shall
not exceed 1871 hands,"
Subsequently, a letter of explana-
ton was sent broadcast to the editors
and polo authorities of the newspa-
pers by II. f. Herbert, suggesting the
word mounts be used hereafter in
stead of ponies. The increase in
height besides making it easier to OBJ
tain lightweight army remOunts avail
able for polo ended the many con-
fusions due to the use of mounts that
were palpabiy beyond the old 14.2-
hand limit.
