FIRST GAME is WON
BY WOMAN POLOISTS

PINEHURST, y. c.. March l9-
Women polo stars won the first polo
game that their sex ever played to-
day, when they defeated a team of
seasoned men polo players, by mar
gin of goals to 4.
The women, who were the first
ever to form a polo team, were Mrs
Philip Stevenson of Hampstead, l. l..
Miss Dorothy Richards of Cleveland
Miss Eleanor Christie of Toronto and
Miss Beverly Walters of Washington.
The winners were awarded a handi-
cap of 4 goals, but they earned 2
by excellent riding and team work.
They were exceptionally good on the
defensive. Their riding and stickwork
brought forth great applause from
the spectators and the highest
praise from those well versed in
polo.
Mrs. Stevenson, who carries a
handicap of two, was the outstand-
ing star for the winners and scored
one of the two goals while Miss
Richards played splendidly at No. 9
and scored the other goal for her
side. Miss Christie at No. l and Mrs
Walters at No. 4 always were in their
positions which they played remark
ably we'll and gave their team much
assistance
The lineup of men polo players who
took their positions in correspond
ing order was: Jack Latting w. S
Jones, Gould Shaw and Richards S

FIRST DIAMOND TILT

Western Highs base ball team prob
ably will be more seasoned than Tech
in the opening game of the high school
championship series Saturday. in Gem
trail Stadium. While the Manual Train
ers have not yet appeared in a prac-
tice game, and with no thought of do

and intends to meet St. Adams today

The Georgetown school gave evidence
of early season form when it swamped

Coach Ahearn was pleased with the

son and knabel are expected to take
turns on the mound. Judging from the
manner in which the Georgetown
youngsters smacked the ball yesterday,
the Tech fingers are apt to find the
going rather rough.
Coach Erickson of Tech, how
ever, is sending his team through the
PAGES at the Washington barracks. The
Manual Trainers boast of the only
two southpaws in the series this year.
Tew, a big left-hander from last year,
is expected to take the mound against
Western. 1t is planned to have him
pitch for three innings. giving away to
Batson, another left-hander, who will
be relieved by Dulin at the end of the
sixth session.
The regular lineup for Tech has not
been selected, but it is certain that
April will do the receiving.
