IN u. POLO TEAM
Guest and Sanford SuppIant
CoWdin and Hartman in
American Lineup.

BY the Associated Press.
NEW YORK. September 25-A re-
vised polo team will represent the United
States Saturday in the first match with
an Argentine team for the champion
ship of the Americas.
j. Cheever Cowdin and w. Averell
Hartman have been dropped in favor
of Winston Guest, former Yale star, and
Stephen Sanford.
The new squad, as revised by the de-
Tense committee of the United States
Polo Association, will lineup with San
ford in Harriman's place at No. 1, Capt.
Tommy Hitchcock in No. position,
at back instead of Cowdin. The new
team is handicapped at 81 goals COM
pared to the 35-goal ranking held by
the original squad as named little more
than two weeks ago. The difference lies
in the fact that Sanford Is rated at six
goals, one less than Hartman.
The committee announced the new
lineup in terSe statement which said
that the change had been decided upon
as result of Developments of the past
two weeks" What these Developments"
were the committee neglected to say but
observers pointed out that the original
team had been beaten twice in practice
matches against fours that contained
Guest and Sanford in their line-ups.
Most critics thought that Sanford was
playing a better No. than Hartman.
and that Guest, in hitting at least, was
Cowdin's superior.
