The Corn BOrer
 Doing Damage
Got Away With Whole
 Crop of One Farmer

A Waterbury farmer had his first experience with the corn borer this year. He found but few safe ears in two patches and finally decided to cut down the whole crop and burn it up. In this way he states he disposed of a million of the pests. Until after he had this experience himself, he had a notion that tillers of the soil used to enlarge upon the dam age the corn borer was doing.
 He states that some of the worms are an inch or two in length, but whether large or small all have a ferocious appetite as anybody could see by the way they drilled holes through the corn.

The September session of the common pleas court was officially started this morning when Judge Edward J. Finn and Judge Miles F. McNiff presided in two civil &C., tions, the trials of which com- menced in separate court rooms. It means the commencement of a busy court season after a layof during the summer months.
 Judge Finn is presiding over the $1,O00 civil action of Thomas Wrenn of this city against Puzzo Bros, Inc, local shoe finding firm, in which the plaintiff seeks to re- cover for injuries suffered in fall through a trap-door on the de- fendant's property at 262 Bank street.
 Judge McNiff is nearing a re- plevin action brought by Leo Con- savage against his wife, Anna Con- savage, from whom he is separat- ed. The husband seeks to regain possession of an automobile now in his wife's possession.

Child Swallowed
 Open Safety Pin

Patsy Pirro, sixteen months old son of MT. and Mrs. Donate Pirro of Warren street, is under observa- tion at the New Haven hospital. The child swallowed an open safety pin at its home here Monday. When X-rays indicated the position of the pin the child was rushed to New Haven for treatment by special ist. The pin was later forced from the child's throat into its stomach.

big Four" Since 1904.

THEY still call the American polo
i team of 1904 the Big Four"
Harry Payne Whitney, the Prince
of American Sportsmen, organized that
team. In polo tradition it still is re-
garded as the greatest Of the polo teams.
On it were Larry Waterbury, No. /;
Monty Waterbury, No. e. Harry Payne
Whitney, No. 3, and Devereux Milburn,
back.
That year the international polo
match was played at birmingham, the
home of British polo. The cup all this
time had remained in England since
the first game, and the chances at that
time seemed to be that it would remain
in England as long as the Americas
Cup remained in the United States.
America did not seem to be able TO de-
velop the players or to acquire and
train the ponies.
But Nottingham was due for con-
siderable amaZement. In the first
game of the match the Americans
uncovered some new tactics in this
ancient game. They played a free
roaming, long hitting game, the like
of which never had been tried since
the Persian princes first played it.
Devereux Milburn, at back, revolu-
tionized the sport in the opening game.
Up to that time a back was supposed to
do nothing but defend his goal. He was
almost as stationary as hockey or Soc
Ger goalie But Devereux Milburn was
all over the field in the attack. He was
working on the old military theory that
the best defensive was a fierce and sus-
tanned offensive. The Americans won
the first game on the new tactics
against a strong British four. Still they

was Thomas Hitchcock, jr.; Hitchcock,
ST., watched from the stands.
Last year there were more than
10000 in the stands when Thomas
Hitchcock, jr, captained q victorious
American four, all young men. From
the way they rode through the Brit
ish team It looked very much as
though the international polo cup
would be safe for some years TO come.
The international polo match has be-
come the most magnificent spectacle
in American sports. the greatest melo-
drama of them all, and perhaps the
costliest. It takes the income of a
maharajah to keep it up. But behind
American polo after the start that was
given to 1t by Harry Payne Whitney
there has been some princely laviShneSs
and enthusiasm that has endured.
After the brilliant showing made by
the young big Four" led by Thomas
Hitchcock, jr., there was the eternal
controversy regarding the old and the
new. The younger generation was
maintaining that the big Four" Of the
younger Hitchcock played greater polo
than the horsemen who won the first
American victory.
But 1t was the spirit Of the younger
and the older that made the last team
great For one could feel that as the
younger horsemen rode to their dashine
victory there were riding beside them
invisible, the shades of Harry Payne
Whitney and Monty Waterbury, and
that these always will ride with the
American teams in the international
matches.
