KAPLAN IS STRONGER
AS A LIGHTWEIGHT
BY FAIR PLAY.

NEW YORK. July 29.-Kid kaplan
will make his first official start as
lightweight when he tackles the
former lightweight champion. Jimmy
Goodrich. Kaplan will take the place
Of the prina donna of the ring. Ruby
Goldstein.
The writer for one was always
skeptical of Kaplan's ability to make
1875 pounds. the featherweight limit,
and expected to hear of his retire
ment as a featherweight long before
this.
AS far back as 1922 the writer
weighed Kaplan for his fights with
Danny F1ush and Babe Herman and
knew for a positive fact that the
Kid was having hard trouble making
1870 pounds.
In his first fight in defense of his
title with Herman in Waterbury there
was some dispute about the KID TIP
ping the beam over the weight and
his efforts proved that he needed an
extra pound or two to carry on with
his accustomed Ngor.
Tipping the beam at 1871 pounds
Kaplan met Billy Petrolle, the Fargo
Express, and amazed the huge au-
dience that damned the Hartford
ar7nory with his dazzling speed and
two-fsted attack. He swarmed all
over the hard hitting boy from the
Northwest and carried the fight 80
fast that Petrolle was unable to do
anything with his hard.hitting right
hand.
As lightweight Kaplan should do
as we'll as he did in the lighter class.
Petrolle made a wonderful showing
against Sid ferris not long ago and
If that is any criterion of the Kids
chances he should be we'll up among
the contenders for the title before

ARMY MEN ON u. S.
FOUR FOR FIRST TIME
BY LAWRENCE PERRY.

NEW YORK. July 29.-One of the
most interesting things about the
tournament for the Herbert Mem
orial trophy which will be played at
the Rumson Country Club next month
is the personnel of the polo four
which will represent Meadowbrook.
For the first time in the history of
American polo, this club. which oc-
cupies very much the same position
in this country as Huntington does in
England, will be represented by
Army players. Capt. c. Fl. Gerhardt
will play at No. and Capt. Peter
Rodes at No. 3.
Both Rodes and Gerhardt played
upon the United States Army four
which defeated the British outfit in
England last year, and both men
won international recognition through
their brilliant work.
With Watson Webb playing at
No. and DevereauX Milburn at
back, Meadowbrook is certain to be
represented by nifty outfit. 1t Will
be handicapped at 81 goals, the high
est rating of any of the seven teams
in the tourney with the exception
of the Argentine team, which will
play at "a. One suspects that If this
Meadowbrook combination is together
next season IL VIII go III Ut lfoTe
than 81. because of high handicaps
for the two Army men.
The appearance of this pair of sol
diers on the Meadowbrook quartet
is significant in several respects. For
one thing, it means that hereafter
American polo will be characterized
by the additional color and gallantry
which the military always contrib
utes.
England has always had 1t; polo,
in truth, Is in It's essence a soldier
game. since British officers played 1t
in India originally, and then brought
