To Play in Meadow Brook,
Rumson and Philadelphia
Tournaments.

The coming of the Argentine team,
representing the Argentine Polo Fedora
ton for the fall tournaments and special
matches TO be played at Rumson. Phila-
deIphia and Meadow Brook, has excited
keen interest as to their probable COM
parative ability when pitted against rep
resentative American teams. The various
visits of English teams as well as our
international contests In England have
provided the American sporting public
with a fairly accurate line on English
players and mounts.
Comparatively little has been known
here as 10 Argentine polo and players
Notwithstanding polo has boen played In
Argentine almost as long as in Eng
land. II having been introduced In
that country by r. f. Preston. an Eng
lishman, within ten years of Its incep-
ton. he having learned the game IN
India.
Since 1899 the game has rapidly forged
ahead In South America, due to the
founding OF the River Plate Polo Asso-
ciation. which viii now probably be sue
ceeded as the ruling body by the Argen-
tine Federation OF Polo. a body which
consists OF Arrentines only and Of which
the team headed by Capt l.. L. Lacey Is
representative.
Great interest was manifested IN Eng
land as to the probable showing OF this
Argentine team there this summer. and
the first favorable Impressions were later
confirmed by the success OF the Argen.
tine representatives In winning handily
ell of their important matches and the
English open championship. The sue
cess Of the Argentine team In England
has created considerable agitation among
sporting editors OF that country as to tho
probable outcome OF match betweer
the Argentine Polo Federation team ant
the American international team OF 1921
II such match could be arranged.
While II Is admitted that polo in Eng
land this season has not been up TO the
standard OF the past, yet the very ready
manner In which the Argentine team
won has made them great favorite:
among English critics.
The Argentine team Is composed oi
Messrs. Luis i. Lacey Go goals), David
Miles (s) John Miles (s) and John ID
Nelson (6). although many Englisi
sporting writer's are inclined to rate then
even higher, 1t being suggested tha
