International Match Soon.
Interest of polo enthusiasts
throughout the country is centered
at present on the eighth interna-
tional polo match between English
and American teams, which begins
June 19 at Hurlingame. England. on
the field of the Hurlingame club.
Capt. Devereux Milburn has suf-
fered an injured elbow during re-
cent practice game, bit dispatches
from England say the captain Of
the American team will be in the
lineup when the matches get un-
der way.
tice gymes consisted of c. c. Rum
sey. Thomas Hitchcock, Watson
Webb and Capt. Milburn.
Readers of the sporting pages viii
be confronted with numerous polo
stories from the other side dur
ing the next three weeks and III
order that they may familiarize
themselves with the fundamentals
of the game. the following is pre-
sented foi their benefit:
Bird'seye View Of Game.
The game is like football on horse
back. Goal posts are located at each
end of the playing field. which is
800 yards long by 100 yards wide.
A team is composed of four mount
ed men, who are numbered one,
two, three and the back" whose
function is defense.
The players carry bamboo sticks
tipped with cigar-shaped ends, and
II is the purpose of each team to
drive the ball down the field with
their sticks and through their op-
ponents' goal-post.
Play Is regulated by two umpires,
who are mounted, and the game is
divided into fixed number of seven
and-one-half-m periods, with
intermission of three minutes.
Has It's Dangers.
Like many sports, polo has its
dangers. The greatest danger is in
being thrown, or "unhorsed," as 1t
is more commonly called. There is
some risk of being hit by the NAL :
let's, but 1t Is seldom that serious in
jury results.
Members of the Fort Myers teams
have INDUCED In little practice of
late because teams at the post have
been depleted py orders, some hav-
ing been ordered to the range. whine
others have gone for target prac-
tice.
Some Of the members of the teams
from the army post are Mai, Paten.
Maj. George, Capt Walsh. Capt. sa-
see. Lieut.. Short and Lieut.. Jones'
1t Is probable that when memers
of the team who are away at pres
ent return tq6the post, several games
will Be -ssged In Potomac Park.

Square of Canvas

Few car owners realize what a
convenient accessory is little
square OF canvas about eighteen
inches over all. 1t saves the knees
Of the trousers when you have 10

part: 1t keeps the jack from slip

inner tube out of the dust when
this part Is being inserted by the
roadside: it will serve to strain

from rattling: it will protect the
hand in handling hot parts, and,
finally, It will make an emergency
inside blowout patch. And witbal

REANING AVOIDS
VALVE STEAM PLAY

In engines not fitted with special
valve stems guide bushings exces-
sive wear of the guide and conse-
quently valve stem side play and
oil leakage may be prevented by
roaming the guide and fitting a
bronze bushing. The bushing may
be obtained already machined from
any supply house. In ftting the
valve should center on the tappet.
otherwise there will be side thrust
against the bushing and 1t will
wear eccentrically.

Caring for Tubes.

The tube. should be rolled fiat
with soft cotton between the lay
ers. A strip of cotton flannel rolled
up with tube is excellent The
roll should then be placed in a thick
cloth bag with the stem protruding
and the mouth of the bag be tied
around the stem. II Is a good plan
to put talcum powder in the bag.

PLAY IN MAIN SHART
FORCES GEAR LEVER

Excessive play in the main shaft
of the gearset may. cause the gear
shifter lever to be forced out of po-
sition. Usually the front bearing
on the main shaft Is shimmed so
that the condition is easily reme-
died End play in this shaft may
also be the cause of chattering in
the clutch and a bucking when the
ear Is on a grade or otherwise pull
ing hard under load. II this Is not
corrected in time the shaft play
may cause permanent injury to the
gears.

Ball Bearings Need
Occasional Care

Few owners pay the attention to
the ball bearings that these latter
deserve. They usually wait until
the garage man calls attention to
the injury done by breakage. At
least once in six months ball bear
ings should be inspected, the rough
or worn balls replaced with perfect
ones and the ball run filed with
sraphite grease

INDIANS meet
ChristianiZed Redmen, 1000 In
Number. Hold Modern Religious
COnVOcatiOu in South Dakota

Okreek, S. n, Aug. 16.-TrailtnS
across the prairies in picturesque
procession, five thousand Christian
lied Indians, hearing banners ami
crosses of the Episcopal church,
will cross the plains the latter part
of this week in all sorts of convey
ances to build a city of tepees on
the banks of Oak Creek, near here.
For four days, beginning Aug. 10,
the Indians will hold a modern re
ligious ConVocation, a meeting quite
different from the religious rites Of
tribal days.
This modern Indian convocation
will be held in an open air tabeTna-
Gle under the leadership OF Bishop
L. BurlesOn, of the Protestant Epis-
copal church
The convOcation in the city of te-
PEGS is designed to bring together
the Sioux and other tribesmen from
the Rosebud and surrounding In
dian agencies in the district presid-
ed over by Bishop BurlesOR. The
convocatiOn will also serve to COM
memorate the centenary Of th3
missionary society OF the Episcopal
church, illustrating the advance
made by the Indian under the influ-
ence of the missionary movement.
In connection with the religious
services, a business meeting will b.
held at which the Indians will be
by Charles II. Burke, fed
erai commissioner on Indian affairs.
