In the Hunt Country Activities Among the Horse-Lovers of Virginia and Maryland. BY NINA CARTER TABB. AYLOR SCOTT HARDIN of Upperville, Va., and Mrs. Kath- rine Bliss Boker of New Jer- sey were married last Monday William P. Hulburt and Richard Kirk- patrick. The youngsters play every Tuesday and Saturday morning, are making good progress, and the games wax fast and furicus. When the ponies THE EVENING STAR, WASHINGTON, D. C., WEDNESDAY, JULY 28, 1937 are tired and worn out the boys are still so enthusiastic they could go on and on. Several old ponies that had been retired by their owners to a life of ease in the pasture have, much to their distress, been called back into active service for the juniors. The boys are interested in the weather only because rain on polo days means no game and no fun. The job of in- structing this young team is rather easy, as all of them ride well. They had ponies as kids and now ride to hounds whenever they can get out of school. Most of them are sons of polo players who started copying their papas by hitting balls on foot when they were hardly more than babies. This trains the eye and makes them very accurate hitters. The line-up of the Blues is Bill Emory, jr.; Dickie Kirkpatrick, jr., and David Phillips. They are coached by Dick Kirkpatrick, sr. The Whites are coached by Bill Hulburt, sr., and the line-up is Billy Hulburt, jr.; Jack Butler, and George (Jabo) Ker- nan. All of their games have been played on the Marshall polo fleld, as it is more central for the boys, but the coaches have promised to let them play on the Phipps Goose Creek field soon. The big fleld has the same dimensions as the famous fleld at Meadowbrook, Long Island, where the international games are played. - a Ladies’ Aid Plans Picnic.
