HITCHCOCK PLAYS | INOLD-TIME FORM ;Veteran Leads Greentree! Into Final Round of Open Polo Tourney. By the Associated Press. EW YORK, September 16— Tommy Hitchcock is riding high, wide and handsome again and his Greentree mal- let is knocking or the door of the national open polo throne room. Playing with all the dash and reck- less abandon that featured his play ‘when he was handicapped at 10 goals, Hitchcock has led the Greentree rid- ers to victories over Long Island and Templeton into the final bracket, where they will meet Aurora Wed- nesday. Yesterday Greentree shaded the fa- vored champions, Templeton, 10-9, as Hitchcock thrilled 20,000 persons on International Field with his exhibi- tion of horsemanship, tactics and | mallet wielding. He figured in prac- tically every scoring play and tallied three times himself. Riding with him were George H. (Pete) Bostwick. Ger- a'd Balding and John Hay (Jock) Whitney. Bostwick Is Co-Star. HITCHCOCK and Bostwick, the lat- ter a lightweight riding fast ponies, teamed up to raise havoc with the Templeton defense. Dashing into the melees. Hitchcock would emerge with the ball, whale it to the waiting Bostwick, who six times rode away from Raymond Guest to knock it through the goal posts. Balding scored the other goal for the winners, The game was played at a terrific pace, with Templeton turning on the steam at the outset to ring up two markers before Greentree could get | under way. Winston Guest drove home a free hit from 40 vards and Mike Phipps scored from 40 yards out. Balding then came through with his | lone tally and Hitchcock tied it up with a true shot from 40 yards away. | Charley Gelbert, Cardinal infielder, has a reputation as the best contract | bridge player among big leaguers.

NATKONAL Dog week this year oc+ curs from September 22 to 28. ‘The motto for the week is “Every home needs a dog.” The reascns why every home needs a dog are as varied as the homes. Among the commonest reasons given by dog purchasers are as pets, the overwhelming need of the world to love; as guards and watch dogs, one dog often being worth sev- eral men in this capacity; as workers on farms; as teachers of unselfishness and various other desirable traits to youngsters. One of the most pathetic reasons glven for the acquisition of a dog, and one of the reasons most frequent- ly given, is the need of a substitute for a lost or unattainable baby. But if cme cannot have a baby, a dog does make a very satisfactory sub- stitute. TERR!ERS are notoriously “death on cats,” 80 to see a wire-haired terrier assiduously licking and polish- ing a tiny kitten in Dobkin's Grocery Store in Falls Churci was rather sur- prising.
