Hitchcock Injury
Gives West Edge
Loss Of Famed 1o.Coal PLAYER
cripples Eastern Teams
Chances in Meeting

New York, Aug. 10.-(R-Tommy
Hitchcock's latest polo injury may
prove serious enough to keep him out
Of the East-West matches, thus SER
iously Gripping the East in its bid
to avenge the defeat at Chicago a
year ago.
Although the famed 10-goal player
was resting comfortably and was in
no danger as a result Of the slight
brain conclusion he suffered in fall
on Wednesday, there was much specu-
lation Friday as to how the injury
might affect his polo future.
Close followers of the game pointed
out that Tommy. who played through
q dozen years of hard polo both here
and abroad without serious injury,
now has suffered brain conclusions
twice within year and. that there
seemed to be a certain element Of risk
OF permanent injury should he at
tempt to play before complete re-
covery from his latest mishap. He
suffered a severe conclusion in the
East-West series year ago and was
on the sidelines all the rest Of the
1883 season.
The intersectional matches begin at
the Meadow Brook club Sept. 8.

Golfers want all the distance they
can get, and feel that they must bring
into play all the power they have to
get this distance.
Therefore. their instructive feeling
of power rests in the stronger side and
arm hitting forward.
To give the left arm side, and wrist
chance to figure in the stroke, we
pivot in the golf ewing. II there is
little or no pivot. the club usually is
taken to the top of the swing by the
right hand. and the swing will be
dominated by the rightside, causing
cut across the ball.
