The other was Greentree, last year's runner-up, backed by his cousin, John Hay ("Jock") Whitney. Old Westbury...
...play of his mates. From the fourth chukker on, they peppered the Greentree goal-Mike Phipps scoring six times, Cecil Smith eight, Stewart Iglehart two-in a display of well-balanced polo that has seldom been matched anywhere. Greentree, conspicuously outmounted but making exciting play of it until the final gong, scored only seven goals.
