(Copyright 1927, by United Press) Cleveland, C©., Sept. 30 (UP)— event has its hero every season, its outstanding stars, cvery battle its dramatic moment. Tommy Hitchcock is to polo what Bobby Jones is to golt. essence of skill, intelligence and gameness. The second between the count of nine and ten which was the differance between victory and defeat was to me the most dramatic moment in the season’s great sport- ing event. The hero, Gene Tunney, took a chance that only one of his poise, intelligence and skill would dare take, and hope to survive. Tommy Hitcheock, Bobby Jones and Gene *Tunney stand out in my opinion as the dramatic figures in the batt which make thrilling sports history In practically every respect Toni- my Hitchcock rode as no other play- er upon the polo tield dared. But beyond that he hit accurately and with more power than anyone on elther team. His pace was notched bteyond the best, pust as the pace set by Bobby Jones was so far in advance of all contenders that a London sports writer said only when Bobby Jones retires will golt return to normalcy. Only it the “big four” of the American polo had been obliged to play without Tommy Hitcheock could army-in-India team have given the Ameri¢ans a real contest. Tommy Hitcheock started polo at the age of 18, tutored by his mother, one of America’s best horsewomen. At sixteen he was playing big time polo then the war found Tommy flying. _At the age of 17 he was brought down behind the German lines and Always alert, dar- ing and intelligent, he managed to jump from a moving train when his guard dozed, and made his escape. After the war, while _Hitchcock was a student at Oxford, “the ‘American polo team England to lift ‘eup. Tommy, then only 21, filled No. 3 position, and ever since then has risen to the heights world's greatest forward. The qualities which led Tommy Hitchcock into the war at such an early age are the ones which make him one of the greatest heroes of the sports world. The spirit of ad- venture, daring to the extent of grave danger to his very life and understanding of horses and men, he takes chaaes that would be suicide for any one less skillful. One of the greatest chances be- tween the loss of a coveted title count taken by Gene Tunnecy in h dramatic encounter with Dempscy for the heavyweight championship of the world. If Gene Tunney could have risen at the count of five, yvet stayed down to the count of nin leaving only one sccond between de feat and victory, it takes my breath | away to think of the chance he took. It rivalled the moving picture execution fhe the execution ax is suspended in mid-air ready to de scend just as the rescue takes place Only a champion of Tunney's in- telligence and poise could have sav- ed himselt from the ferocity of Jack Dempsey the rest of that geventh round. Since L returned to whare the noble Gene Tunney spent a days with friends T heard thrilling recitals of that dra- ‘matic round which makes my blood ‘race with excitement. Gene Tun- ney’s getaway for the rest of that seventh round has been described as the finest piece of skillful tactics that ever has been seen in the ring. He was o light on his fect and asive it was said that Jack Demp- sey might as well have tried to bring down a feather.
