UPREMACY in polo, like golf passed from Britain to America with the post-war stimulation of Yankee activity and has re- mained on this side ever since—to the somewhat decided apnoyance of our | friendly English rivals and in spite of | their most courageous efforts to alter the situation. Just now the British are concentrat- | ing on a third successive attempt m‘ lift the classic international polo cup from American hands. Advices to this department from | abroad are that it is by far the most | serious expedition yet organized and | that the leading candidates for the | British team, under the leadership of | Capt. Charles Tremayne, already are in training. Capt. Roark Is Star. The British polo four this year is being built around the dashing figure of the Irish internationalist, Capt. C. T. 1. (Pat) Roark, a sensation in American tournaments last Summer, ‘With him in training are Capt. Tre- mayne, Maj. G. H. Phipps Hornby and | H. P. Guinness. | ‘The latter two are experienced, but is the American view that the British | stand little chance of winning this year unless they call some younger stars, such as Pat Roark's brother, Aiden Roark, and the Baldings, Cecil and Gerald, to the colors. This is on the theory that it will take speed, dash and plenty of it to overcome the American side. | News to Americans. ‘The ordinarily conservative London ‘Times, discussing the polo situation, re- marks: “The English team is likely to be strong, and as the Americans rely mostly on players who will be new to international polo, it is thought there is an excellent chance of the cup being brought back to England.” * * * This will be news to Capt. Tommy Hitchock and Winston Guest, two pretty well known internationalists, as well as such other American stalwarts as Ped- ley, Boeseke, young Earl Hopping and others, who are seasoned performers even if they haven't had much com- petition against the British. As a matter of fact, most any Amer- ican team that can be picked will have an edge over the British in general ex- perience in spite of its youth.

By the Associated Press. SUNNINGDALE, England, May 2.— Beaten in their first competition abroad, Glenna Collett and her American wom- en golfing comrades now have their eyes fixed on the British women’s champion- ship, which will be played at Formby the week of May 12. Miss Collett's team bowed to a picked English squad headed by Molly Gourlay yesterday, eight matches to six, with ety Good showing in i of she surprisingly wing in view fact t-h“dt:le! had lnilved in England only two days previously. If anything were neeced®to prove that the invaders had needed more time to get rid of their sea” legs, the brilliant showing of Maureen Orcutt, Englewood, N. J., star, provided it. Miss Orcutt, who preceded the rest of the team by & week, not only defeated her singles op- ponent, Mrs. J, B. Watson, 4 and 3, but paired with Mrs, H. A, Martell of Hart- ford, Conn., to win in foursomes from Dorothy Pearson and Phyllis Lobett, 7 and 6. Miss Collett herself was beaten in both singles and foursomes. She lost to Miss Gourlay, 1 up, in a tight match in sin- gles, and with Marion Bennett of New Britain, Conn., bowed to Miss Gourlay lng slhifl ‘Wilson in the foursomes, 4 and 3. All 17 members of Miss Collett's team will play in the British women's cham- plonship, as will five other Americans, the most noted of whom is Mrs. Dorothy Campbell Hurd of Philadelphia. The keen greens provided most of the difficulties for the Americans in their team match, but they will have nearly two weeks to regain putting form before the woman's champlonship be- gins.
