WESTBURY Gets
BREAK IN POLO

WESTBURY, N. Y, Aug. 80 GIN.
S0-The road to old WeStbury's
second straight National Open
polo title was half paved by the
luck of the draw, released today
by the U. S. Polo Association. The
draw for the championship
matches, which start Sunday at
International Field, shows old
WeStbury with only one tough
team to face instead Of the two 1t
expected.
Winston Guests Jaguars were
pitted against Jock Whitney's
Greentrees in a first-round match
to be played at international Field
on Sunday.
The Jaguars and Greentrees
were drummed up as Old West
bury'S two most formidable foes.
But instead Of getting chance to
gang up on Old WeStbury they
find themselves currying each
other with polo mallets.
Old Westbury, lodged in the
other half of the draw, will clash
with Aknusti in a first-round
match Monday. The JaguarS-
Greentree winner faces the Ram"
blers on Tuesday. Wednesdays
schedule brings the Old Westbury
Aknusti survivor against Aurora.
The final is scheduled for Sunday.

MEDWICK N A Y.
co TO CUBS AS.
"SALVE" FOR DIz.
By EDWARD w. COCHRANE

BY EDWARD w. COCHRANE
LOS ANGELES, Aug. 80 G.N.S).
Joseph "Ducky" Medwick. hard
hitting outflelder of the st. Louis
Cardinals, will be sent to the Chi
cago Cubs before the opening Of
the 1899 season as "salVe" for the
Dizzy Dean deal, 1t was learned
today.
This deal Is expected to be in
the form Of PREPARATIONS" on the
part Of Branch Hickey and Sam
Breadon, Cardinal bosses, for ship
ping Dean to the Cubs for $685.
600 in cash and three good ball
players. Dean developed a bum
flipper and many believe P. K.
Wrigley, Cubs owner, is ready for
a "blowoff" and the only thing
that will stave it of is the trading
Of Medwick.
PRIDE HURT
It hasn't happened yet. But I
am told 1t is going to happen in
the winter and that the Cardinal
star will become a Bruin before
the gang hikes off to Catalina for
the annual training siege next
spring.
Those in the know are wonder
ing Just how long the patent and
game P. K. will retain his silence.
Wrigley has said that he took his
chance and will ge5 his moneys
worth out Of Dean. But, Of
course, you can't expect even a
game guy with plenty Of cash to
stick out his chin and say slug.
His pride may be hurst by such a
procedure and that's something
most folks don't like to have hap
pen. Not even a millionaire who
can afford to lose in a deal that
involves plenty Of cash.
BEST SOLUTION
The Medwick deal is supposed to
square everything. It would stave
off a suit, providing one Is con-
templated, don't you see? It would
keep Commissioner K. M. Lands
out Of another row with the Cardi-
mails. It would do a lot Of things.
But best Of all it would compen-
safe the Cubs for their wild ex-
penditure for a fellow whose arm
shows no improvement as the
months roll on.
Branch Hickey and Sam Brea-
don may say it Is fantastic. Wrig-
ley may deny that such a deal will
be made. But there will be some
thing done to square the Dean
deal unless Or Diz shows improve
ment pronto and there is little
chance that he will.

Probably while you're snoozing the
tarpon will hit. He'll hit like the i'm
pact of Q 14-inch gun, for he doesn't

your tummy until you'll wish for that
rodbelt your tackle dealer tried to sell
you last summer. He'll jump any
where from 6 to 20 times and he'll
wear you down. Chances are you'll
lose him, for he's a tough baby. One
tarpon landed out of four hooked is a
good average. But If you are good-and
ucky-you'l tire him out: he'll turn
on his side and come in. If you don't
want him for mounting, you'll take
scale midway down his side just abaft
OF the dorsal fln and turn him loose.

been given he makes his final note.
There is where the bomb" landed.
Why % seconds, you ask?
Well, that's where the thing is not
SO simple again. The % seconds Is
the necessary elapsed time before the
bomb dropped hits the ground This
is, for a bomb of given weight from
q given plane speed at a given height.
In this connection it will be noted
that the bomber flew at an altitude
of 5000 feet If he had been flying
at an altitude of 10000 feet it would
have taken the bomb more than %
seconds to reach the ground. Mathe-
matically these things have been
worked out. So high. so fast, SO heavy
the bomb, so long for 1t to hit the
ground. This timing must be pre-
else on the part OF the bombardier if
if he wishes to become proficient as q
bomber.
THE training given the Army bomber
with the camera obscura is not
an occasional program. 1t continues
for weeks until the pilots and the
bombardiers become skilled in team
work. Then they are ready to drop
their allowance of 100-pound bombs
for training and record runs. It does
not matter how proficient they become
in radio bombing or mock bombing" I"
they must have actual practice in the
long run with live" bombs in order
to get the feel of bombing. Where
these are concerned additional con-
siderations come into play. such as
air resistance to the bombs, co-ordi-
mating the sight and release mechan-
isms and the actual mental reaction
to dropping bombs containing explo-
sives and seeing them strike the tar

In real bombing the officers work by
teams Yet even the mock angle Is
not absent here. For only about four
pounds Of powder are placed in the
bombs. The rest of the charge is
made up Of sand. Yet for all practical
purposes the bombardiers are using
live" bombs. because the sand-filled
projectlles react l!,e filled
bombs and provide the necessary real
ity feeling to training
