Maker for Good win.

TSfiE team members had dinner at
the Bays mess and we're hon
ored guests at the tine-honored
tattoo. Country houses were open TO
them by the score and nothing that
could be done to show the American
poloists that they we're welcome In
England was left undone.
And all reports are that the guests
IN their turn proved TO be well quail
fed to requite their hospitality IN
terms Of agreeable fellowship.
When Mr.. 6toddard went abroad TO
arrange about this trip he received
as soon as he landed an invitation
from the master of the Quorn Hunt,
whom he had never met, to spend
his time at his home, and the Prince
of Wales made a special point OF wei
coming one whom he had known as
a member Of the American 1nterna-
tional four, which went TO England
in 1921 and recaptured the Interna4
tional Trophy taken 10 England BY
Lord Wimborne's four in 1914.
All these comradely interchanges
arising out of sport are of inesttmable
importance-in a very subtle way, per-
haps, but none the less extremely
significant. Polo in this respect Joins
with tennis, track and field. yachting
and soon-we hope-rugger foot ball,
in establishing common understand
ing between two great nations which
may prove more valuable than We
now know.

M Seated at midtown club,
" Louis E. Stoddard, chair
man Of the American Polo
Association, discussed the forth
coming polo matches between
the East and the West to be
played on the famous interna-

ginning September 8.
Aside from setting forth as pre-.

greatest demonstration of expert.
hard-riding, hard-hitting, hell-for-
leather polo that the world has ever
seen, we herewith pass on to other
phases OF Mr.. Stoddard's table con-
versation because we think they are
more important at the moment than
the East-west matches--of which In
coming weeks there will be plenty OF
opportunity TO write.
What struck us as particularly
gripping were Mr.. Stoddard's refer
ences-brought out by questions--to
the constructive aspects Of polo as

Passes Up Club Title.

~ does is strictly his own busi-
ness. No champion Is required by
law or even by custom TO play In
every golf tournament. but 1t has
been long time since We had Dis
trict champion who didn't show up
for at least one or two tournaments
in his home bailiwick after winning
the crown. The ether boys have a
quaint notion that they may get
Kick out of licking the champion--if
they can do It. But Dick hasn't given
them that chance.
Since he won the local simon-pure
crown at Indian Spring last Septem-
Der, licking Defending Champion
Roger Peacock by thunderous putt
that rolled into the cup clear across
the seventeenth green to bust up a
match that was up to that time as
close as two peas in a pod, young
Richard has made only a few links
appearances about the Capital. And
those have been in friendly matches
and not In competition. The absen-
tee District champion didn't come
back home to defend his Chevy Chase
Club title late in June, and it went
on to the capable hands Of Frank

Wants National Honors.

n UMOR has it that the absentee
IL title holder will be back home
around August 81 to play in
the sectional qualification rounds for
the national at Five Farms. If Dick
comes back home for that occasion
he probably will stick around another
week and defend his District title
at Columbia in the tourney which
starts on August 20.
Dick wants badly to play in the
national. He is a young man with
lots OF ideas and considerable
amount Of golf, and he wants to 60
places nationally. He had an acci-
dent in friendly wrestling bout at
Princeton last Fall which kept him
out of the game for some time, from
strained arm muscles This may or
may not have something to do with
his non-appearance in the local
events
But no matter what he may have
done a coed number of the boys
whom he beat last Fall are waiting
for a shot at Richard. If you could
condense their pleas into one song
it would run something like this:
Come on home, Dick. all is forgiven.
And bring your title with you"
