Dazzling Play
Of Hitchcock
Features Match
Local Four Displays Hardest
Hit?inar Polo Seen in Years
in Betting Champions
By Fred Hawthorne
Playing the most spectacular and
hardest hitting polo seen on American
field* this year, the great Meadow
Brook "big four," minus the services
of Louis Stoddard, its No. 1, whose
place was ably filled by J. C. Coolcy
defeated the supposedly invincible Ar?
gentine team yesterday afternoon by ?
-core of 7 goals to 4, on International
V.-!,l ??. *11*?..??_ T 1
This was the first of the two special
international matches arranged to de?
cide the supremacy between the all-con?
quering "four horsemen of the Argen?
tine" who had swept all before them in
i.i.gland and won the American open
title this season, from the Meadow
Brook team, Jed by Devereux Milburn.
The second game will be played on In?
ternational Field on Saturday after?
noon, and should Argentina win then
st third and deciding game will be
played, probably on Monday.
While no title hinges on the result
of these games between the two great?
est polo combinations in the worlo, and
the Meadow Brook has particularly
?tressed the fact that it is not com?
peting as the four that defeated the
British at Hurlingham last year, but
simply as a private team, the fact re
rftains that the winning four will be
rightly regarded as the champion polo
team of the world.
When Stoddard was so severely in?
jured by a fall from his pony last
Monday that ho had to remain out of
yesterday's game, it was felt that his
absence would prove a fatal handicap
to the American four. Little Cooley,
leader of the Flamingo four, and a
veteran of wide experience, eagerly
volunteered and was pressed into ser?
vice.
Cooley Fills Sfoddard's Place.
Without in any way detracting from
Stoddard'? value to the "Big Four",
for he is recognized wherever the game
is played as one of the greatest for?
wards who ever swung a mallet, it must
be paid for Cooley that he filled Stod
dard'a stirrups wonderfully well yes?
terday. It was part of Cooley's duty
lo cover Capt. Luis Lacey, leader of
the Argentine four, and to ride him
? if on occasion, and Cooley stood up
i > this imposing task surprisingly well,
???'Rides scoring one of Meadow Brook's
rjoals.
Viewing the match as a whole, it
?rat Argentine's failure to hit accurate
ly that proved fatal to the South Amer
a?s' hopes of victory. In horseman
fhip, in combination play, even in
nibbling the ball, Argentine, as a
ii?am, held a slight advantage over the
American combination. When it came
to long hitting and accurate shooting
for the goal, however, tho South Amer?
icana were extremely erratic, the for?
wards passing up many chances on
? hat appeared certain scores by either
; iiasine the ball entirely or landing
?do of the mark.
This was in large part due, undoubt
!y, to the tremendously aggressive
riving of Milburn and W? team mates,
ho were in there lighting every min
? of the time and forcing the Argen
- nians to hurry their shots. The play
. ig of Meadow Brook's "big four'' was
re individual in character than that

at a source of constant worry to the
Argentine team, vicing with the mighty
. lilburn in the power of his hitting and
ranging the field from end to end in

stretch of turf. Superbly mounted in

duels of speed. lie was the highest

Webb played his position at No. 3 it

Milburn, at back, played in tho man

Captain Lacey was the star for Ar
cantine, being only a shade behin

hits. The South American leader* wa
a tower of strength to his team, no

We talk of the players and of how

deserve a separate niche in the polo
Hall of Fame to themselves. Combin?
ing the threo cardinal virtues neces?
sary in a polo pony, speed, intelligence
amj courage, to an extraordinary de?
gree, they appeared to ?nter into the
game yesterday with every whit as
much interest and fighting determina?
tion as their riders, and to leave the
field of battle at the end of each chuk

A soul-stirring demonstration of this
came in the final peri d of play, when
tho teams were fighting desperately.

jaws of defeat. In a wild rush down
the field toward the Argentine goal
David Miles and Milburn crashed, al?

and were sent sprawling to the ground.
For a moment the crowd held its
breath as the wild melee of plunging

horses and shouting riders stirred up
clouds of dust. Milburn and Miles at
last staggered to their feet, but Mil
burn's chestnut mount, Corona, lay
on its side, kicking widly in the effort
to regain its feot. When the pony
finally struggled up it was standing on
three legs, its left leg hanging limply. '.
It looked like a broken leg and a i
doomed pony, but the stalwart Milburn, ,
still suffering fi'om his own injurie.**, |
grasped the pony's hoof in his two j
hands and yanked it vigorously for- |
wind. The leg seemed to have been <
dislocated, but Milburn's heroic treat?
ment was successful, and Corona, limp- I
ing, but plainly pleading to continue, j
was led off the field.
There were about 12,000 persons in
j the stands when the game began with
Major Lockett throwing in the ball, and
i after two rushes up and down the
i field Hitchcock scored on a free hit
? from tho fifty-yard mark, following
an Argentine penalty. Both sides fought
1 hard, but. there was no more scoring
in this chukker.
Argentine tied the score in the sec
? ond when John Nelson shot a pretty
goal a minute before the bell rang, tak?
ing the ball on a beautiful pass from
John Mile?. Argentine was inv;iding
Meadow Brook territory consistently at
this stage.
The Miles brothers got one of then
sweeping combination plays working
in tho third period, and David Miles
drove between tho goal posts after one
minute of fierce struggling,' giving Ar?
gentino the lead for the first and only
time in tho game. The.'advantage was
brief, however, for Hitchcock, Carrying
the ball from the throw-in at the cen?
ter, rushed it down squarely in fron1
of the Argentino goal and then she
it home for a score,
Cooley added another for Meadov
Brook In the fourth chukker, afte:
Hitchcock had missed a short one clos?
to the goal posts. After Argentine hat
rushed the ball out of the danger zoni
Milburn came thundering down thi
field and lifted the ball with a trc
mendous hit to the side, where th
alert Cooley received it and scord o;
a brilliant cut shot.
Lacey Prevents Goal
No scoring in the fifth, although Mil
burn would have earned a goal on
free hit from the sixty-yarfl mark, bu
for Captain Lacey's wonderful snvi
Webb made it 4?2 for Meadow Broo
in 4:35, after stealing the ball awa
from Jack Miles close to the sid
boards. Argentine fought furiously t
score In the last minute of play, bi
missed half a dozen chances aft?
working the ball within easy etrikiti
distance.
David Miles was the first to score 1
the seventh period, picking the ball o
the side hoards and then sending
slashing slant shot between the pos
from the sixty-yard mark, a marve
lous stroke. Hitchcock then added '
his total, carrying the ball down tl
field on two great smashes. An Arge'
tina forward, with a wonderful cham
to take the ball away, played rig',
into Hitchcock's hands in front of tl
goal and Tommy Bent an easy oi
through.
It was the daring Hitchcock aga
who scored at the Ftart of the eigh
chukker, sweeping down the field ai
driving home a dazzling slant sh
from close to the side boards
twenty-five seconds. Laccy marked
one for Argentine on a free hit, a
then Hitchcock shot the final go
alter carrying the ball from tho cent
and scoring on a great slant shot.

And Varsity Crews
Rowing on Harlem
Jim Rice had an extra freshman
eight out on the Harlem yesterday
afternoon, when he boated five barges
of first-year men. In addition, one
varsity eight took a spin lasting about
a half hour and covered three to four
miles.
As on Tuesday, a few varsity candi?
dates were used in each yearling barge
in order to accustom the newcomers to
the water, for few of them have had
any rowing experience. ?Tim is not
bothering with going out in the launch
to coach the experienced men, and is
therefore spending all his time with
the freshmen. At present the Blue and
White coach is allowing the cubs to row
only one mile.
Irving Cooper, who was unanimously
elected acting captain to take the placo
of Franklin Brodil, who is a football
man just now, made his first appear?
ance yesterday and was ?given the pace?
maker's position, which is usually held
down by Brodil. Carl Theobald, who
was declared ineligible last April on
account of scholastic standing, rowed
at bo\\% with Albert Mayo, T. B. Walker,
Henderson, Sonn, Dixon, Griswold,
Clonar T) Thnns and Wolf, cnvsivaii,
taking the other places.

boated as follows:

Battling Siki
"Battling" Siki, the Sengalese,
May be a champ or he may be a cheese;
Tile Siki swat hurt Carp a lot,
But the Dempsey pace is a. bit more iiot.
They say he's tall as a Sikimore
in the candle light of a Wabash shore;
Whether he can or whether he can't,
1 hope he isn't a Sikiphant.
There must be a ring in the atmosphere
When "Sic him, Siki," rolls loud and clear,
And according to Carp,\vho felt the ivarp,
As lie heard the birds and the tinkling harp,
He knows hoto to trip with his shins and knees,
Docs "Battling" Siki, the Scngalese.
"If Siki fights Wills he will have to give away more than thirty
pounds." And ho will have to take-more than he gives away.
On the other paw, if Siki is permitted to enter the ring with one
of those Sengalese bowie knives, as is often the custom of his tribe, even
Dempsey ?night pause a brief moment before lettting a right hook fly. ?
Gridiron Etchings
No. 7?Iowa
There are certain periods when a football team can lose live reorulars
and still fill many of the open spaces in a most acceptable way.
But when a football team loses five stars such as Aubrey Dpvine,
: Glen Devine, Duke Slater, Lester Belding, and Heldt at center, the shock
: is a trifle abnormal in its intensity.
Devino. Slater and Belding were three of the greatest football players
in the world when Iowa took her conquering march last fall.
There seems tt> be conclusive evidence that Aubrey Devine was the.
greatest quarterback in America and Slater was the greatest tackle.
But since they are gone, they are gone, and that's the end to't.
Material Left
A few days ago we had a father and son act when Charley Moran's
? Centre College team defeated a machine coached by his con Tom.
Now we have a brother act when Howard Jones crosses half the
; continent to face Tad in the big bowl.
In spite of the loss of such spectacular stars, Howard Jones will have
his share of strong material headed by Captain Gordon Lccke, the plung
ing fullback.
In addition to Locke he will have Shuttleworth, White, Miller, Colbj
and Soling for backfield positions, with Meade, Minnick, Kritz, Harding
Thompson, Cotton, Barrett and others ready from flank to flank.
?So while the Hawkeye detachment will hardly be as strong as it was
last fall, it will be stout enough to give Yale one of the busiest after
_^?.. iU.. m_ ...:ii i_ _n_ i_
This will be Iowa's first intersectional game, and she has no intention
of? making any ragged showing or falling down heavily on her first long
Eastern haul.
Now and then some prediction comes true. "When Carpentier lost
to Dempsey," a Frenchman told us some time /ago, "he lost to a better
man in every way. But you will find that he going to lose his next fight
to his own conceit and carelessness. Georges is a fine boxer, but not quite
as-brilliant as he thinks he is."
Michigan, after helping to dedicate new ?stadiums at Vanderbilt and
Ohio State this month, stands ready to indorse the building boom wherever
her dedicatory services are required. The new stadium at Vanderbilt
takes top place in the South, while the Ohio State coliseum is the finest
structure of its kind in the world.
? It has been suggested that the world series be made a roving proposi?
tion, as the golf and tennis championships now are, but so far as we know
t?o move in this direction has yet been officially made.

i Schapiro- ? 230-po?nd guard, who had
been forced to leave -the game on
doctor's orders. The baekfield, further?
more, which loomed up as a grave prob?
lem, seems to be the bright spot" in
the. team's make-up. One of the most
promising candidates is F?rber, a half?
back, whose work gives indication that
he will bo one of the outstanding stars
of the season.

Mike Gin See Yankee
Victory With One Eye
Minooka Mike McNally, the Yankee
infielder and one of the stars of last
year's world's scries, was slightly in?
jured in fielding practice before yes?
terday's game. Charlie 0"Leary was
hitting to the infield and Mike had
taken Joe Dugan's place at third base
when a skipping grounder canje up and
parked itself on McNally's left optic.
The Yankee infielder retired to the
dugout, and after vigorously massaging
the injured eye he announced that he
would be able to see the Giants licked
if no complications ensued. Mike had
both eyes wide open with astonishment
in the eighth when the Giants scored
those three runs, however.
Nebraska to Bring Strong Team

The young men from the land oi
corn and cattle have acquired
thing of a habit of into of C3
eastward each fall with rather f ?
success. Two year? ago Frank, :
brought them alone and go* :ir, ever
break in two engagement? with H
gcrs and Penn State, and ant ye.?
?Dawson led them down to Pittsburgh
and took a resounding fall o il of I i ?

thers, These Middle Westerners rat! <??
?ike the idea and intend to ma
; their prestige to where they v. !) b?
acceptable guests for future occasions
: among the ambitious and aggre c
i set.
As to just what Dowson found when
he peeped at. his hand, it ?noy be sai ;
that about, the toughest job hfl a
? to have is to keep from laughil
? self out of the pot. He looked
? found 'em all ri?'nt. and now I e's
looking for the curious gentry who de
; light in calling.
Twenty Letter Men on Hand
The Cornhuskers graduated
first class ' footballers last :?? ng
among thorn being Clarence .c'?
or." of the best ends of the year;- Jt>;
Pucelik and Floyd Wright, two exceed
? ingly robust and agile actors in thi
? center of the line; Roy I.y.nan, an
: other lineman, also i* missing. Bu'
j for ail -o: that, former letter men an
so plentiful on the Nebraska campu
?that one might think they, like
i hoppers, blew ?n on some roi
breeze. In short, there are t .<????.?
\ them on hand, which, of course,
! take into account the flock of
| possibilities in last year's fre nma?
I class.
Starting with Captain "Chick" Hart
ley al fullback quite an -? jspiei.-.i
start, by the way?here are the otheri
who won their letter'?, last year: N'oble
??. Do Witz, Lewellen, Layon s
halfbacks; Preston und Kurse;:.
; terbacl;?; Scherer and Schoeppel
ends; Weller an?! Wenke, tack:?.-; Ber
quist and McCIasson, guards, i -,
Peterson. House and Nixon, centers
In addition to this array, Bassett, ;
'guard who received his letter in 1920
: is back, ad "Terrible Thomsen, al -
\ letter man in 1920, who, with his 19<
' pounds of heft, was a savage batter
ing ram, but who may be shifted ou
to end this- year.
With this array most coaches ?ul<
be willing to tell tho recruits fron, las
! year's yearling squs>d to call arount
? another time when they weren't s<
j busy. Indeed, Dawson seems to be in ?
! position to do just that. But it so haD
\ pens that one or more of last year'i
; crop is quite likely to shove some o:
the older faces into the (Kjcar<!. Then
: aie a half dozen or more of these colt!
who will decline to be ignored. Arnon;
them are Spieee, Sturm, Trautman
; Packer, Klemke, McAllister, Tiinnar.
- R. DeWitz, Randolph, H ibka, Edelmar
and Springer. Is it any wonder thai
Dawson is having difficulty in maskint
a smile?
One Defeat Suffered Last Year
1 he Nebraskans ran rather rough
shod over neighboring: teams last
in winning the Missouri Valley Confer
once championship, and they expect t<
repeat this year. The only defeat las
season was at the hand3 of Notre Dame
Knute Kockne's team winning by
score of 7 to 0. This year the -:
? Bend collegians will b<.- reeling ?orne
: what from rather ruthless deletions o
their ranks, owing to charges -of pro
fessionalism after the close of the 182
; season, and the Nebraskans are count
I ing strongly on getting even.
The Syracuse team will afford th
only medium of comparison with team
of other sections. The remaining game
on the Cornhuskers' schedule are al
with teams in their own general see
tion. Missouri, Oklahoma, Kansa;
Kansas Aggies and Iowa State Colleg
are the other engagements of nott
Looks like Dawson and his charges ar
in for a highly successful season.
They play right vigorous football ou
Nebraska way, and evidently Dawso
has no intention of allowing the roug
edges of contact to be smelted down t
any fromageous consistency. Amon
the equipment and appurtenances tha
he ordered sent along to the train ill;
camp at the start of the season wer
seves-al sets of boxing gloves. He say
there is something of art analogy be
tween the spirit of the squared rin;
and the griddled rectangle; but it'
spirit, mind you, not -?methods.
