Contest of International Import- ance to Start Tomorrow New York, June 17.—America and England will clash for the eighth time in play for the famous interna- tional polo cup in the series which opens at Hurlingham, Eng., tomor- row. International polo cup play dates back to 1886 when the Westchester Polo club, not now in existence, of- fered a trophy for competition be- tween the nations. The Hurlingham team, captained by the famous Irish sportsman, John Watson, was invited to the United States to compete for the trophy. The English team promptly took possession ot the cup, winning the first two matches, 10 to 4 and 14 to 2. Foxhall P. Keene, T. Hitchcock, Sr., father of the present American No. 2; R. Belmont and W. A. Thorne, composed the badly de- feated American outfit. There was no further international play until 1900 when a team of Americans who happened to be in England, challenged and were un- successful. England won the only match played, 8 to 2. Two years lat- er, the American Polo Association sent over an official team but again failed to regain the cup. That series saw the entry of Lawrence Water- bury into international play. Thae American lineup was R. L. Agassiz, J. E. Cowdin, Foxhall P. Keene and Lawrence Waterbury. However, better years were coming for the Americans. The “Big Four™ arrived in 1909. The famous quar- tet, composed of Lawrence Water- bury, Monte Waterbury, Harry Payne Whitney and Devereux Milburn, “polo’s greatest back,” went to Hurl- ingham that year and regained the cup, overwhelming the Englishmen in two games, 9 to 5 and 8 to 2. Of that team, Devereux Milburn is the only player now actively in the game. He will be the backbone of the American defense in the Hurl- ingham contests this month. The same invulnerable combination repelled the Hurlingham team which challenged in 1911. Captein L. St. George Cheape and Captain J. Hard- ress Lloyd were the most famous of the Englishmen who became inter- nationalists in that series. The games were furiously fought but the leadership of Harry Payne Whitney and the hitting ability of Devereux Milburn turned back the invaders, 41-2to 3 and 4 1-2 to 3 1.2, The English allowed only twq years to elapse before they challenged again The Americans started the same men as in two previous series but Monte Waterbury was injured in the first contest and was replaced by Louis E. Stoddard, chesen as the No. 1 of the present team. More than 30,000 persons saw the defenders again win at Westbury, L. L WANTS BONUS FIRST—Congress- man J. A.

Chicago, June 17.—The National Collegiate Athletic association track and field meet, with an entry list containing so many champions that the contests have been termed the “American Olympics” will begin to- morrow at Stagg field, University of Chicago, with elimination tryouts in the dashes and other events in which an unusually large number of ‘en- tries have been made. The meet, said to be the first truly national event of its kind in this country and designed to become an annual feature, will furnish compe- tion largely of an individual nature. Individual ars who hold sectional, national or international records are ‘entered and with the leaders of the country competing the sponsors of the contest look for world's records if track and field conditions are fa- vorable. Nearly 100 colleges and universi- ties from every part of the country have sent the best men of their track teams. Numerous members of the American Olympic team are en- tered and world champions are in- cluded. From the east, Earl Thompson of Dartmouth, holder of the world's record of 0:14 2-4 in the 120-yard hurdles, heads the list of champions. Thompson was a member of the Canadian Olympic team, being a na- tive of Canada. Yale, Amherst, Ro- chester, Pittsburgh, Bates, ‘Wesleyan of Conhecticut and other eastern schools are entered. The list of eastern entries was considerably cur- tailed, however, through a conflict in dates with the Eastern Central Am- ateur Athletic Union tryouts which re to be held Saturday. r. Philadelphia ... NEARING $800,000 MARK. Tex Rickard Says Receipts for Big Fight Amount to About That Sum. New York, June 17.—Tex Rickard estimates that between 30,000 and 35,- 000 persons have purchased tickets for the Dempsey-Carpentier bout, making the advance sale somewhere in the neighborhood of $800,000. While discussing the financial phaes of the “battle of the century” yes- terday, Rickard said: “I cannot yet tell accurately just what the sale ac- tually is, but I hope to be able to do so within the next few day: I am convinced, however, that it is not far from the $800,000 mark. I think that between 30,000 and 35,000 people have procured tickets for the bout. While all of the fifty-dollar seats have been sold, there are still plenty of tickots to be had at the other prices. When completed, the arena will seat 60,000. Thus, approximately one-half of the capacity of tha big wooden bowl has been sold.

Chicago, June 17.—The mark of seven home Tuns in a recent game between the Philadelphia and Detroit Americans tied the major league record for circuit drives in a single contest, but it didn't even come close to the world's record. On July 14, 1902, Corsicana and Texarkana, in a Texas minor league, met in a regularly scheduled game which produced slugging records like- ly to stand for many vears. Nineteen home runs, a dozen triples, ten doubles and almost a dozen singles were clouted out by the batters in this game. Corsicana won by a score of o1 to 3, and the winning team made 53 hits. Incidentally, “Nig’’ Clarke, former- ly the best backstop of the Cleve- land American league club. claims to have established in this game the world’s record for home runs by an individual batsman. Clarke says that he drove out eight round the sacks hits in this game. Previous data credited Harry Wright of the Cincin- nati Reds with the record of seven homers in a game in 1867. Modern records gave the honors to Robert Lowe of Boston, Dan Brouthers of Detroit and Ed Delehanty of Phila- delphia with four home runs apiece in one game. Seven home runs were made in a game between St. Louis and Detroit, June 12, 1886. The Philadelphia-Detroit series pro- duced hitting that has never been rivalled in modern major league baseball, however, for the two teams made sixteen home runs in the four games. RESUMES TRAINING Dempsey Boxes With Lightweights in Order to Develop Speed—May Weigh Less Than 190 Pounds. Atlantic City, June 17.—With Jack Dempsey back in his training grind today, development of his speed to match that of the crafty Georges Car- pentier is the chief aim of his hand- lers. Dempsey will be called upon to do more boxing with smaller and lighter sparring partners as he advances into the final two weeks of training and mauling with the hevyweights in camp will be gradually cut down. Dempsey started in on the program to increase his speed yesterday when he resumed boxing for the first time since his left eye was ripped open ten days ago. Instead of working with the heavyweights in camp, Dempsey boxed two rounds each with Babe Herman, a shifty hard hitting featherweight, and Irish Patsy Cline, a lightweight. Although Dempsey plans to enter the ring July 2 weighing about 190 pounds, he may be lighter than this, Manager Kearns said, if the weather gets hot. The titleholder scaled 194 pounds yvesterday. He has eliminated rope skipping from his training pro gram.

BUY HER \ PUT HE'S Him A ANDY WINS THE BACON Joe Porto’s Friends Talk a Little Too Loose With a Good Bowler in the Hall. Joe Porto of New Haven, defeated Joe Foote six games to five in the Connecticut Duckpin tourney last night at the Casino alleys in a hard fought battle. The local man did well despite the fact that the breaks were against him. Foote failed to improve his scores several times aft- er making spares, a two or three often being his portion after a spare shot. Perto showed some clever bowling f{at times in making spares. There was a large crowd on hand and the enthusiasm was the best shown at the alleys in several months. Fol- lowing the tourney match, friends of Porto with a bankroll, made quite a lot of noise over his ability and wound it up by challenging any bowler in the hall. Eddie Anderson happened to be there at the time and a match was arranged. The games started without the attempt of Funn E. Guy, to break in with his loose chatter. Andy lost the first game when Porto got a strike in the tenth box, but after that, he just went to work and swelled the purses of his friends by taking two games. The scores: Foote 104 115 114 88 Porto 111 122 84 124 Foote 97 115 93 108 Porto 89 99 102 116 Foote 93 115 108—1150 Porto 98 88 98—1171 103 107 SQUABBLE OVER REFEREE Commissioner Doherty of New Jer- sey Boxing Board Would Call Off 120 115 117—340 100—322 Andersoa Fight If That Body Fails. Hackensack, N. J., June 17.—At a dinner given to Charles J. Lyons of the New Jersey Boxing commission at Souther’'s Iiotel, Fairview, last night, Commissioner Doherty made the statement that if the commission cannot have the privilege of naming the referee for the Dempsey-Carpen- tier fight in Jersey City July 2 there will be no fight. He said that a seri- ous situation had resulted because a certain party believes he should have the privilege of naming the referee. State Senator Alexander Simpson, who was one of those present, said that if the commission did not show backbone and stick up for its rights in the matter and name the referee the next senate would repeal the box- ing law in OFFER JOHNSON $55,000 Former Heavyweight Champion Who Is to Leave Federal Prison on July 7, Is Sought As Opponent for Wills.
