POLO IS BIDDING
FOR PUBLIC
PATRONAGE
indoor Season Is Proving
Greatest Sport Has Ever
Experienced.

There is no longer denying the
fact that polo--always a splendid
game, but for the few-is making
gigantic strides from the view
point of the spectator. Following
closely on the heels of the most
sensational outdoor season that the
game has ever had without the Inn
petus Of one of the big cup matches,
the indoor season is to be the great
est that branch of the game has
ever seen. 81
The announcement that British
team is to come here for interna-
tional matches to be held in con
junction with the national and
intercollegiate championships in
March assures grand finale to the
season that will measure unblush-
ingly with the outdoor play.
The indoor polo play is something
Of a story in itself, advancing as It
has of late from a start made when
it was looked upon as a freak and
an impossibility. The men who
have handled this indoor play are
deserving of the keenest sort of ap-
probation from those who have
any feeling at all for the gallop-
ing game, perhaps the most thrilling
OF any sport that man takes part in.

HARVARD TRACK
PROSPECTS
HOPEFUL
Practice for indoor Meets
Commences With Bill
Martin in Charge.

CAMBRIDGE. Mass, Jan. 90

and is hopeful of giving the Crimson
a strong team this season.
Practice for the indoor meets has
already commenced and later on Mar.
tin plans to split the squad in two
and have them meet a number Of
times. In this way he aims to en-
courage healthful competition.
Captain Billie Burke heads the con-
ti1gent of twenty-one varsity men
now at training table. He will de-
vote his time this winter to relay
running and probably not attempt
the mile, his normal distance, but
will run the 1000 yards.
Carl Fbauers, the intercollegiate
high hurdles champion, is getting
into shape for this event indoors.
Bob Thayer is also making ready to
take the sticks this winter.
The Crimson has Dick Gerould for
the high jump. He tied with another
Harvard man for first place against
Yale last spring.
Jim Merrill and Vinton Chaplin are
slated for the sprints along with
Percy Jenkins, who Is also to broad
jump. Roger LutZ and Eddie Lund
are entered for the longer runs, while
Charlie Eastman, Lee Marshall and
Chuck Carpenter appear to be the
cream of the weight throwers.
AL Gordon is looming UP like a
60O-yard star and should have his
first season of success. John Quinn
is also out for honors at that dis
lance and Eddie Farrell is training
FLAP" Hyatt. a transferred student,
who is said to be good for almost six
feet in the running high jump.
A few entrys will be made in the
Millrose games in New York a week
from today. More will be made in
the Boston A. A. meet with varsity
short and long distance relay teams
facing Tech and Yale.

The big fellow was right at the
start of the 1921 season, but after
an excellent opening seemed to
lose his zip. He has taken lots
of exercise this winter at his home
self again. If so he should be of
staff.
George Stueland, big right handler,
who showed much promise last sea.
son, will have his tonsils removed
in the next week or so. Throat
trouble has affected his strength to
some extent. and he wants to be
absolutely right this year.
Stueland has been working all
fall and winter out at the Cub
park, helping to remodel the field,
and is in shape physically. He is
the one fellow on whom Grover
Alexander has spent much time,
and toward the end of the 1921 cam
paign was beginning to show re-
suits.
He had to change his style of
pitching entirely when he joined the
Cubs last spring. He was effective
in the minors, but didn't have the
right kind of curve ball. Alex
labored with him. teaching him his
own style, and George took to it
kindly.
The new style was long in ac-
curing, but toward the finish of
the grind he was handling the curve
skillfully. He is expected to be one
or the main winners of the 1923 sea-
son.
