Burns, the ground covering center fielder for the University, dropped 46 points but is still leading the batting order with an average of .365 which is five points better than Captain Todd, who bettered its mark during the week with two good days at the plate against Holy Cross and Princeton Zarakov, the flashy third baseman, climbed 12 points in the ranking and retains his grasp on the third rung of the hitting ladder...
...White '28, the fourth member of last year's championship team has apparently weakened the squad only slightly. R. B. Burnett '28, playing his first game for the University was used at number one, while F. D. Stranahan '26, who usually plays this position, was shifted to back and Captain R. D. Pinkerton '27 was placed at number three.

...Captain R. D. Pinkerton '27, at back for the winners, displayed a brilliant brand of horsemanship and stick handling which was largely responsible for many of the University tallies. In the fourth chukker the University captain cut loose with the most spectacular shot of the game when he scored unassisted from far down the field. Alexander Shaw '28 at number one and R. B.

Dudley Clark, father of the Crimson Freshman polo player, was the outstanding star...
...Dedham quartet will be made up of experienced players. Philip Saltonstall. W. Cameron Forbes, J. Dudley Clark and Jasper Bacon, all well-known in Boston polo circles, will be riding the Dedham ponies in the order named. Alexander Shaw '28, Captain Robert Pinkerton '26, R. B. Burnett '27 and F. D. Stranahan '26 will ride for the University Burnett is the only man in the line-up who did not share in the triumph over Yale in the finals of the intercollegiate tourney last spring, and this will be his first public appearance with the Crimson four...
