should be eliminated. he said, and Mayor Quigley agreed. Parents of children object. and rightly so, to an arrangement by which the little ones are obliged to walk in the cold and rain and snow from the port to the toilets in the main building. It is detrimental to their health in many ways, he said.
 Cost Less Than S200,OOO
 Superintendent Holmes disclosed that the proposed new building would not cost s200,000 because the plans have been altered since they were first considered. Instead of r 14, with gymnasium, auditorium and Kindergarten.
 Why not combine the gymnasium and auditorium 2" the mayor asked.
 Because we have found by cx- pericnce that it is not practicable to do so," MT. Levitt replied. and Su- perintendcnt Holmes added that it was tried in the Nathan Hale school and found unavoidable. The mayor asked how often the auditoriums are used and Superintendent Holmes told him they are a more valuable part of the school system than per- sons outside the school department realize and he believed the mayor would be surprised 10 observe the many uses to which they are put.
 Without auditoriums, it would be impossible to assemble large bodies of children at one time and instruct them in the sciences, certain fea- lures of geography, patriotism, health education and similar sub jects of vast importance. he said. Superintendent Holmes said there was no question in his mind of the superior advantages given children who attend the modern schools, and he wished that every child could be housed in them.
 Like little Red school House.
 The children who attend the Northend school. $50 or 400. actu- ally have but few facilities and ad- yantages which were not available in the little red schoolhouses of years gone by, he said. There is something more than a fire hazard in the building, he declared. It is entirely inadequate and should be replaced.
 Mayor Quielcy inquired whether the children who are given their pre- lminary education in the less mod crn schools of the city suffer by com rarison with those who attend the better schools. 10 which Superinten- dent Holmes replied that conditions have changed greatly since he and the mayor were children and those who arc obliged 10 sit in one seat the whole day through as in the North"nd school with no opportu- nity to move about from room to room, meeting ther children and be- ing instructed by different teachers arc not as well off as those who have all the facilities of the modern schools. There is something more to education nowadays than the three R's', he said.
 President P. r. King of the school board assured Mayor Quigley that he and everyone else connected with the department wanted to cooperate in every way possible. They have no personal interest in the matter at hand, he said, and were concern

Irishman, he has at times played polo
surpassed only by Tommy Hitchcock.
He is the direct opposite of Balding,
brilliant, spectacular, dashing, more the
kind of player favored in American
polo. Lacey is, perhaps, the most SEN
sational individualist the game has
ever known.
Obviously, this is a curious combina-
ton. On the attack Britain has two
players who can be counted on to give
a good performance, but who can hardly
be expected to do the unexpected. On
the defense Britain has two amazing
personalities, who may play well to-
gether, and who, on the other hand,
may not. This is the team Britain will
show to a roaring crowd of 10000 pc
sons when the gong rings on Meadow
Brooks famous international field at
Westbury, Long Island, on September g.
Formerly the British invaders came
here early in the Spring to have plenty
of time to get used to American grounds
and American competition. This year,
because British invaders in the past in
variably lost their form during the long
stay on American soil, the British ar
rived only three weeks before the
matches Naturally, they are now only
shaking out their sea legs.
However, the British have had a
number of light practice sessions These
showed clearly that the Britons are de-
termined to make good and to wipe out
the stigma of defeat and disorgani-
zation which has been attached to their
polo ever since the war Whether they
will be able to do that or not depends
mostly on the team Hitchcock will be
able to assemble on behalf of the
United States. and that at this writing
looks very good.

Moke-Up of u. S. Four
Still Offers a Puzzle

NEW YORK, August 81 (P.-
Critics who have ventured to name
the team that will be selected to
oppose the British in September's
polo matches at Meadowbrook were
not so sure today as to which three
players will ride with Capt. Tommy
Hitchcock.
With RUDE Williams, the Texas
COW puncher, replacing Earle Hop
ping at No 2 yesterday, the varsity
Whites triumphed over the Reds,
19 to Is, in a spectacular tussle.
In all but two periods the Jay
Wees, aided by a Seven-goal handi-
cap, played the Hitchcock combina-
ton to a standstill. but in those
two periods the Whites appeared
to be the best combination yet to
take the field in the series of test
matches.
Williams appeared uncertain at
the forward position, but in spite
of this he showed to the best ad-
vantage any No. 2 has shown since
Cecil Smith, his fellow Texan, tried
out at the post several weeks ago.
He scored three goals and figured
in many of the plays that led to
Eric Pedley, the Californian, count
ing nine times. Winston Guest
again was at back for the Whites,
with Hitchcock riding at No. 3.

Muny Quarter-Findls on Today
With T,vO ID. c. Hopes Opposing

7 TEADED by a struggle between
- those old rivals, Bob Considine
and Dooly Mitchell, a program
promising stirring play was
scheduled this afternoon in the national
public parks tennis tournament on the
Rock Greek courts. Considine and
Mitchell were to face in one OF four
ouarter-final matches in the mems sim
giles, starting at 1880 o'clock. At the
same time semi-f1nal matches in the
women's singles were to get under way
with Mrs. Ruth Martinez, District parks
singles champion, facing Mrs. Ann
Lindemann, st. Louis, In the encounter
most interesting to net devotees here.
Second-tound play in the mems dou-
bles was to be continued and semi-final
competition in the women's doubles also
was carded this afternoon. The mems
competition was to start at $3.50 O'Clock
and the women's an hour earlier. Mrs.
Martinez also is a Semi-flnalist in the
doubles. She is paired with Jean Artz-
berger of Pittsburgh. This combination
was to face today Mrs. Virginia Dueker
and Mrs. Ann Lindemann.
Considine was favored TO conquer
Mitchell. The rangy Bob, as rule, has
been able to best Georgetown's curly
haired boy. His steadiness has told.
Considine's latest win over Mitchell was
in the recent District championships at
the Edgemoor Club. Considine won the
District singles. A little later, however,
Mitchell achieved the Washington parks
singles title in which Considine was
put out by Eddie Yeomans in the semi
finals in stunning upset. Considine
and Mitchell advanced through easy
third-round wins yesterday, the former
defeating Edward Nowak, Buffalo, 6-3,
Ga, Is, and the latter trimming
Monte Tiller. Louisville, seeded seventh,
6-3, 60, Ga.
All the other mems singles matches
today promised fine battling George j.
jennings jr., Chicago, defending cham
pion, was to face Ted r. Drewes, four
times national champion, in a rubber
encounter. Each has defeated the other
