RIDLEY IS SELECTED
Hard Riding, sharp shooting Call fornian Will Be at No, on United states Team.
states Team.

New York. Aug. 7.-tP-Eric Ped ley hard riding, sharp shooting Californian. will be al No. 1 when the United States polo team lines up against the English in Q series of in- ternaronaI matches at Meadow Brook in September. At least that is the way the polo critics are figuring matters following the sensational performance of the west coast star in the last four test matches.
 Riding at No. 1 on the Varsity Pedley had scored 34 goals against the Reds in the four matches q performance that has gladdened the heart Of Captain Tommy Hitch cock, who has been searching for 8 man 10 fill that aIl-important posi- ton.
 In yesterdays match Pedley was at No. l. riding against Winston Guest, who Is slated 10 play back OH the American quartet Despite this, the Californian scored six of his teams Il goals. Earl A. S. Hopping. rode at No. and plainly showed the lack Of practice due to a recent in jury. The Varsity" failed to click as in the past with the result that the final score was Il all, although the Hitchcock four gave it's opponents II goals.

Portland. Me. Aug. UP)-Dick Chapman. 19, the Greenwich, Conn.,. youngster who barely qualified for the New England amateur golf championship here Monday, was favored today to win the title.
 Chapman, who had to participate in 2. play-off series to squeeze through the qualifying barrier, cas- fly defeated Charles Clare of Race Brook, Conn, 5 and 4, in semi-fnal play yesterday. Previously Chapman had eliDinated both the defending champion, Paul Haviland, and the medalist. Emery Stratton, and had established a new Portland Country club course record of 6S. three under par.
 As a result of his semi-fnal vic tory. the Connecticut youth today was to meet Elmer Ward of Norfolk in the 36-hole final match. In the semi-fnals, Ward eliminated Frank Ross Of Hartford, Conn, up at the 18th hole.

ENTERPRISE IS
 LEADING YACHTS
Smallest of Quartet of Con- petit0rS Has Two Victories

Vineyard Haven. Mass, Aug. tF) The star of the House of Wander bilt seemed in the ascendenCy today and that of Morgan on the wane as the four candidates for the defense of the America's Cup against Sir Thomas Lipton's Shamrock V set sail for Newport, R. l,
 Enterprise, smallest of the quar- tet and the sail carrier of the fleet, skippered by Harold S. Vanderbilt, resumed competition with two straight victories to her credit. Cn- til the series sailed in connection with the current New York Yacht club annual cruise opened. Weeta- moe, craft of J. P. Morgan and with his son-in-law George Nichols at her wheel, seemed all but certain to defend the cup against the doughty Sir Thomas. FBut during the last four races. including yesterdays $ run from Mattapoissett to this little haven, Enterprise had ,surged to the fore in the estimation of unofficial observers, at least as the fastest all- around boat. Yesterday and the day before, she was home ahead of her three larger sisters, and in the race of the previous day, when Yankee. the Boston boat, won in a spanking breeze she finished a close second.
 It is simple matter enough 10 cri- ticize the four cup boats on their advantages in varied weather con- ditions, but no criticism of the ama- ! teur shippers would be fair if it dld not give Harold Vanderbilt credit i for a navigating shrewdness that is responsible for placing Enterprise
 where the wind is fairest. When the breeze is f1uky and variable 1t lis almost as though he anticipated l the changes and he has a crew that | is nimble when a change in sail is to advantage.
 ! There is a look of aliveness about ] the Enterprise that is not equallel ! aboard any of the other four cup candidates and as long as light airs and smooth seas continue she is th4
 best bet of the fleet.
 Yankee has shown Sn ability tc outsail the others in a good stlIt i breeze, but such winds are not ill
 order during this season Of the year 1 She took second place yesterday, but l probably only because Weetamo' rendered herself ineligible by foul. ing Whirlwind at the start. Whirl. wind thus was credited with finish
 ing third. What she may do in the future seems to rest with her crew
 for the big double ender and only
 wooden boat of the four has never
 had the advantage of consisten
 handling.
 The run to Newport today repre-
 sents a 37-mile course, with the clll
 candidates competing for specia
 prizes and hope Of distinction tha
 may win selection as the defender
 of the most famous of all yachtin:
 trophies.

EDWARD E. HORTON IS
 AT COLISEUM TONIGHT

Fear, according to psychologists, is caused by ignorance of the thing feared, but in the case of Edward Everett Horton, in the part he plays in Warner Bros Vitaphone pic- ture, "T'he Hottentot," at the Coli scum tonight, the more one learns of things feared, the higher ones hair rises-the more ones flesh creeps! This is the comedian as Sam Harrington, fake horseman, in the screen version of the famous stage play, ludicrously proves. The thing feared in this case is the un- controllable race horse Hottentot, that nobody has yet ridden.
 In order to appeal to the girl of his heart-played by Patsy Ruth Miller-Horton agrees to ride in the great annual steeplechase, although he has never been astride a nag in his life! His decision made-he begins to find out all sorts of new and horrifying facts about Hotten- tot, and the more he learns about the habits of the wild animal, the more his teeth chatter
