In the Hunt Country BY NINA CARTER TABB. HE Fauquier-Loudoun polo team will begin its July matches by playing the War Department at Potomac Park this after- noon. The Virginia team has had games greatly interfered with in the past month by rains, and a practice game that was to have been held yesterday on the Marshall polo field had to be given up because of wet grounds. The line-up for the Virginia team today is Dick Kirkpatrick, John Raw- lings. Kenneth Jenkins and Henry Bkinker. On Sunday. July 4, the Harrisburg polo team will be played at Harris- burg. Pa. On Sunday, July 11, a Baltimore team will play the Vir- ginians on Phipps’ Goose Creek Field ‘The following week the War Depart- ment is sending a team to Marshall Field for a game on Saturday, July 17, and this team will stay over and play another game Sunday on Phipps Field This should be a good month for polo, which every one enjoys and takes great interest in. John Raw- lings is in charge of arranging games, the fields are looking lovely and green and we are hoping for some dry weather. Members of the Fau- quier-Loudoun polo team take much interest in teaching and coaching the young boys of the neighborhood to play. Fach season they take on any of the boys that care to learn, end this Summer the junior team fis making great strides. Those who have been playing are Billy Hulburt, jr.; Dickie Kirkpatrick, jr.. Bill Emory, Jr., and George “Jazzbo” Kernan, jr. Jack Butler and Bob McConnell, who have recently returned home from &chool, may join the junior team. Most of these boys’ fathers have been brilliant players on the Fauquier- Loudoun team for years and it is very thrilling to see their sons fol- lowing in their fathers' footsteps. THE dance given by Mr. and Mrs. Walter Fred on Wednesday night in honor of their daughter, Miss Mary Katherine Fred. was one of the most delightful parties of the season. A buffet supper was served on the lawn of the Freds' home at 8 o'clock, the guests sitting at small tables under Japanese lanterns, while an orchestra | played popular tunes. After supper, dancing started indoors and lasted | until 2 o'clock. Miss Fred and her | house guest, Miss Nelson Whiteker of Chattanooga, Tenn., entertained the | Virginians at intervals by giving dance | exhibitions and teaching some of their | guests fascinating new Southern steps | in “the shag” and “truckin'.” Among the guests were M; erine Hulburt, Elizabeth Wi Williams, Mary Owen Lyon, Betty Lyon, Gertie Dougherty, Betty Wil- liams. Mildred McConnell, Betty Mc- Connell, Virginia Calvert, Jane and Jean Moller, Louise Sharp. Bootsie McDonald, Sally Marshall and Messrs John Dudley, Archie Cary Randolph Robert Turner, Jock Merriam of Washington, Marshall Wallach, Bob Wallach, Henry Wallach, Dick Dole, Billy Hulburt, jr..

Mrs. George Greenhalgh, Miss Vir- ginfa Jacobs, Mrs. Pinckney Wetherall, | Blakely Lodge and the show horses of | Springsbury Stable have returned from Toledo, where they exhibited the horses at the show there last week. | Mrs. Greenhalgh is very much pleased | 8t the success of her horses in her home town. She brought back to Vir- ginia many ribbons, having won the green hunter and Corinthian classes with Clonmoney. She was first in hunt teams, showing Hunter's Choice White Spats and Grayarno; first and third in the polo pony class with Duce and Flush. Hunter's Choice was sec- ond in the middle and heavyweight hunters, hunter hacks and Corinthian classes and fifth in the hunter stakes. Dress Rehersal took reserve ribbon to the champion hunter of the show. The championship was won by Wilderkit, owned by Cris Oglethorp. Mrs. Greenhalgh will not show her Springsbury string of horses at Cul- peper tomorrow, as she says they need 8 rest. She will show next at the Little Washington Horse Show in the middle of July. MRS.
