...cards, though, are the U. S. Amateur Golf Championship at Garden City next week, the polo matches with Argentina at Meadow Brook next fortnight, and the 400-mile international auto race at Roosevelt Field next month. Last week, at Meadow Brook, the Open Polo Championship series ended. Last week also, International Tennis, a leisurely international carnival in whose circuit the other stops are Melbourne and Nice, Auteuil and Wimbledon, paused at the flat and singularly unarboreal New York suburb of Forest Hills, to play its last major engagement of the year-the Singles Championship...

Under the hot sun at Meadow Brook, sitting in the stands under dainty parasols or fanning themselves with huge boaters, a crowd of 10,000 saw England's dashing polo team of four Army officers win the second straight game against the U.

...learning to play like U. S. poloists, England's poloists have at least been practical. Two of their ablest Internationalists, Eric Tyrrell-Martin and Gerald Balding, have spent large portions of the last three years at Meadow Brook, Palm Beach and Del Monte. Poloist Balding learned his lesson so well that last year his handicap was raised to nine, only one less than famed Tommy Hitchcock, the world's only 10-goal player. Recalled to Hurlingham, Balding became with Tyrrell-Martin the nucleus of the British team. Last week, with Captain Humphrey Guinness behind Tyrrell-Martin at back...
