i. s. -FOUR DEFEATS
ARGENTINA, IS TO I
Youthful Hopping Is Hero of
Deciding Victory Over
South Americans.
BY j. r. VESSELS,
Associated Press Sports Writer.

w YESTBURY, N. Y. October g.
"A | Argentina's bid for world polo
wv supremacy failed here today
when a Swift-riding, accu-
rate-shooting United States
four won 13-to-7, taking two of the
three games.
Unlike the two previous contests, play
today was one-sided, one way or the
other, after the first periods The United
States team scored as it pleased during
the fourth chukker, scoring five times
and running up seven-goal lead. The
visitors after scoring but two goals in
six periods spurted in the seventh and
eighth sessions and counted five straight
goals while holding their opponents
ScorelesS.
The series nearly ended tragically
when with about 2 minutes of play
remaining, Capt. Jack Nelson of the
Argentines and his mount went down
in heap. The horse fell sideways
pinning Nelson to the ground. In an
instant the struggling Steed had rolled
over and then rolled back again, crush
ing the visiting star into the soft turf.
Nelson lay motionleSs for a minute, but
soon was on his feet and in remark
able show of gameneSS insisted on con-
Ginuing play.
The United States won today because
young Earle Hopping, substitute, came
through. Playing his first game in
international competition, Hopping, a
rugged youth of 81, vindicated the
Judgment of the American defense COM
mittee in substituting the hard-hitting
lad Tor Malcolm Stevenson, the veteran.
1t wasn't that Hopping was an out
standing star, but rather that he stepped
into the United States lineup and kept
pace with his brilliant team mates. He
was a spare part that fit and func-
toned.
Hopping All Over Field.
Hopping was all over the field during
tnat one-sided fourth period unfolding
his reputation as hard hitter, he drove
several long shots close enough to the
goal for his own mates to convert them
quickly into scores. Capt Tommy Hitch
COCK and w. Averill Hartman shot four
goals in two periods on assists from
Hopping.
The Argentines played ragged polo.
apparently because of the force of the
United States drive. They were hurried
IN their passing, and were crowded so
hard at the mouth of their own goal
that they failed to clear the ball. leav-
ing the way open for easy goals for the
victors
Lewis Lacey, one of four 10-goal polo
players in the world, took nasty spill
IN the fourth period when his mount
slipped and fell sideways, but the Al
year-old star was up promptly. Lacey
was pinned to the ground in an accident
in the second game Wednesday before a
remnant of the overflow crowd of $4,000
The United States four was presented
with large loving cup after the game.
Individual trophies also were presented.

Beside him, Sadye, in her bunga-

with great disfavor in her eyes.
She seemed to want Lily to know
how thoroughly she disliked her at
that moment.
Never had a scene like that in
my house before" Lily heard her
say to The Ertz as she followed
Pat out of the house into the early
spring darkness.

All she remembered-all she

was the way Elizabeth Ertz had
taken hold of Pats arm, as IL
he were special property. She
ground her small, even teeth as
she thought of it.

Then Pat did answer her.
You're what people call "a dog

me for saying such a thing to
you" he said, in a flat level tone.
You don't want me yourself, and
you don't want anyone else to

Lily, herself, could scarcely be-
iieve that she was doing what
!. she was doing shaking the Ertz
girl until her teeth fairly ratified,
and shrieking at her to let Pat
alone or shed know the reason
why!
This is a terrible thing to
do" she through way down
deep in her mind, under the rage
and the jealousy that were shak-
ing her just as she was shaking
the little nurse.
And then, in the midst of her
fury, she felt Pats hands on her,
and his touch was like magic.
Instantly all the anger and mad
ness went out OF her and she
turned to him and buried her
face against his shirt. She stayed
there, trembling and sobbing,
clinging to him until he pushed
her very gently away from hrni.
She saw then, that Sadye and
ROY Jefferson had come into the
hall by way of the dining room,
and were standing in the door

him back. II won't ride In either

She said that to hurt Pat. But
IL it did hurt him he gave no sign

indifferently, and swung around
on his heel. Come long"

when they were near the corner.

He did not answer. He seemed to
have nothing to say to her, this
man who had once cared for no:

world but her. He just walked
along as If she had not spoken.

when she was cooking.
Pats eyes I went from her to
them, and then back to her and
Elizabeth Ertz. Have you lost
your mind, Lily?" he asked.
You'd no right to touch her.
She's never done a thing to you.
The nurse had not said a word,
but she was breathing hard, as.
il she had been running a race,
and for once her hair was rough
and tumbled where Lily had
shaken it loose from its pins.
Her white uniform was rumpled,
and from 1t came a faint smell
that was like the ordor of the
hospitals, where she spent so
much of her time.
Lily giggled through her tears.
'How can you like girl who
uses antiseptics for perfume?"
she asked. looking up at Pat
with her lovely eyes wide and
wet, but crinkled with laughter
at the corners.
Pats lips frightened and his face
became more white and grim than

turned to Roy so that Lily had

The druggist spoke pleasantly

sharply from her to Pat. Evil
