 NEW YORK, Sept. 2.-Americs will depend on an unusual com bination of youth and age in de- lending the classic International Polo Cup against the challenge of Britain's Army-in-India team iii the series at Meadow Brook, star ing September '5
 Dashing youth will bear the brunt of the American attack with the 21-year-old Winston Guest. English-born Yale star at No. l, and the brilliant Tommy Hitch cock. 27 at the pivotal No. posi- ton. On the defense, J. Cheever Cowdin. just coming into fame at 39, is at No 3, with the famous Deyereux Milburn, 46 years old and veteran of six previous cup contests, directing the play from his position as back.
 Guest and Cowdip, newcomer, to international competition, dis placed Watson Webb and Malcolm Stevenson, members of the 192f team, in the makeup of this years American Big Four" Ii was a drastic shift that completely up set earlier expectations, but the play of both has warranted their selection.
 Guest, like Hitchcock before him, has jumped to fame. before casting his first vote. Although born in London and the son Of one of Englands foremost polo figures, Capt Frederick E. Guest, young Guest learned his polo in the United States, where he has lived since 1919 and has estab- lished citizenship.
 Literally and figuratively for he stands 6 feet, inches Cues; lowered above all other players in college ranks as captain this year of Yale's championship teapi.
 Hitchcock, with all the daring and dash of youth, also has the seasoning of veteran. This is his third cup campaign. He is the central figure in the American plan of attack, just as Milburn, great strategist and leader, as well as tremendous hitter, is the backbone of the defense.
 The Americans count on the hit ting of Hitchcock and Milbnrn fo offset any advantages in speed which the British officers may possess. These two American aces have established themselves as polo's longest hitters, the Ruth Gehrig combination of this spec tacular sport
 Milburn, polos greatest back. has figured in all of the victories America has scored over England in the historic competition. Eigh- teen years ago, in 1909, he made Sis debut as back on the original Bis Four organized by Harry Payne Whitney and including the famous Waterbury brothers. La ' ry and Monte.
 The only time since then that

the United States has been beaten, in 1914, came when Mlburn was shifted 10 No. 3, with disastrous effects. In 1911, 1913, 1921 and 1924, the American forces were triumphant with Milburn in his accustomed position.
