Is 1T hunger, anger, playfulneSs,

4 the first cause is hunger. but to

Sometimes they strike out of sheer

POLO CONSOLATION
TO QUANT|CO -FOUR
Field ArtiIIerymen Lose by
9-5 as Southeastern
Tourney Ends.

"HE last vestige of the South
eastern polo tournament Of
1886 disappeared into the files
4 of history yesterday afternoon
at Potomac Park field when the
Quantico Marines overwhelmed the
18th Field Artillery of Fort Myer in
the consolation division finals.
The score of what appeared about
to become water polo match was
9-5 as the field artillerymen failed
to show any Of the strength that had
brought them through earlier games
to the finals. Maj. C. A. Wilkinson,
rated one Of the better players in
the service, starred for the marines,
scoring four goals and aiding in re-
buffing every offensive launched by
the gunners.
THE Fort Myer foursome received a
handicap Of two goals, added one
to it in the first half and then man.
aged to slip across two more toward
the end. The opposition was held
to three tallies in the opening ses-
slons, but in the fourth period the
artillerymen collapsed completely as
a unit and allowed four goals to be
run up against them. While their
defense was in state of paralysis,
attempts to build up their own score
met with consistent hard luck. At
least two good shots hit the pylons
and bounced aside, and another pair
struck ponies while headed straight
for the scoring line.
A brief furry of rain just as the
half ended sent spectators to cover.
and as the fourth period terminated
a heavy shower threatened to stop
play entirely, but the teams went on
and the crowds sought shelter beneath
shade trees lining the field Only
one mishap occurred during the day.
Maj. Wilklnson's pony ran through
the guard ropes after play had crossed
the side boards, and gave the veteran
malleteer a tumble. He was unhurt.
