The watermobile is the crea tion of Count de Lambert, the first LaMontaguc R. L. Agassi, T Hltcli cock. F S. Von Stade. J. E. Coodcn, and Foxhall P Keane. In case Hairy Whitney stands by his decision to de sert the ranks of polo players, Fox nail P. Keene is the logical choice for captain. English Want Polo Cup. That the Englishmen are deter mined to capture the Polo cup this year is evident from the fact that they are making all preparations to beg.u training early In the spring. Lord Ashbey St. Ledgers, who is financ Ing the team, has been scouring tho world for the best polo ponies ob tainable, and has made arrangements for te team to practice in Madrid. Spain For this purpose, King Al fonso has granted the use of his pri vate grounds. The fight for the Dwight L. Davis tennis cup will also prove to be an interesting affair. Sizing up the sit uation at the present time; it iooks as If the strongest contender which the American boys will have to meet will bo the Australians Rumor has it that Normon Brooks Anthony Wild ing, Stanley Doust and A. B. Jones will form the team from the Antipo des. We still have the great Mc Laughlin, who covered himself with glory on the English courts this year; Johnson, Williams. Bundy Johnston, and Strachan, among the youngt r plavers. and William Larned and Mal colm Whitman among the older play crs, who have signified their 'Men tion of "coming back."

Dec 27 Offi clal announcement has been made at Yale of the policy io be followed b the recently selected triumvirate o. crew coaches Richard Armstrong. f'5 S . who was appointed as resident graduate In charge of rowing, "will act largely as an organizer, or diplo mat, and probably will not take an active part in the coaching His po sition will be graduate manager ra ther than active coach The actual coaching will be done by Guy Nick alls, the English coach, asslstco. by C. F. tilanlnni of New York ' In this connection it is explained that Nlckalla, with Gianinni, believes in fitting the stroke to the material Ir. hand, rather than In attempting ;u leach something impossible, and Is therefore prejudiced in favor of the English stroke." The belief is expressed that the combination will prove vastly superior to any single coach, as It will com bine "the advantages of hyper pro fesslonal experience with graduate control " FOURTEENTH ANNUAL AUTOMOBILE SHOW New York. X. V . Dec 27 The loui toenth annual automobile show will open next Saturday, January 3, at the Grand Central palace.

The rotunda will resemble a hugo marbie hall, while the pillars will be deco rated with real sinllax and other southern foliage. While many im provements have taken place In tne automobile building world, there have been none of a really radical nature More progress has been made along the line of body building than any other department, and several new designs will be shown at the coming exhibition. Several manufacturers have adopted the sloping hood over the engine. 6uch as most of the for eign cars now have The latest ldctj In self-starters will also form a promt nent part of the show Quite a number of cars are now made with the left drive and central control and S eral of these will be shown as well as the cars with the right drive It is safe to say that the prospective purchaser trill have no difficulty In finding n car to suit hlB own particu lar ideas and needs FOREIGN AUTOS TO EXHIBIT IN N.

COMPETITION KEEPS UP SPORT INTEREST - New York, Dec 27. International competitions heightened the interest in many branches of sport during the past season and the prowess of Am erican exponents was well sustained. Tho season lacked tbo glory" of the Olympic games, but there were many competitions to engage the attention of American sport followers and to maintain their eutbuslasm at concert pitch in probably as wide and varied a program of contests as the history of games and recreations in this coun try has ever vouchsafed From the International viewpoint In all likelihood the most BURtalned In terest was in connection with the ar rival of a challenging team from the Horllncham club of London to com pete for possession of the Internation al polo cup, which had been in its keeping for twenty-three years until regained for America by the Meadow Brook team under the captaincy of Harrv Payne Whitney in 1909.
