...those who stood highest saw it--the day of systematized teaching of business principles and practice, just as earlier the same experience had come to accounting, the first business profession, to engineers, lawyers, doctors and clergymen. And if knowledge is to be systematized and taught, it must be made open and accessible. This logical corollary, not at first fully perceived by business men, with their jealous traditions of secrecy, was of necessity emphasized, though with caution, by the new collegiate business schools. But business men themselves were beginning to realize that their individual interest coincided with that of larger social...
...Open Polo Championship last week reached its final round. Across the close-cropped turf of Meadowbrook Club, Westbury, L. I., the Sands Point team, headed by Thomas Hitchcock Jr., only 10-goal U. S. poloist, charged to decisive victory and a chance to cross mallets with the Hurricanes, Irish-American four. The Hurricanes, led by Irish Capt. C. T. I. Roark, internationalist who has played on Spanish, French, Irish, English, and Indian polo fields, had defeated but one team (The Roslyns) in order to meet the two-time victorious Sands Pointers in the deciding match...
...match play, Tremayne, Wise, Balding and Earle W. Hopping of the U. S. formed the Eastcotts, lost six out of seven discouraging practice games. In the first game of the Monty Waterbury Cup series, also begun last week at Westbury, and in importance second only to the Open, the National Junior Championship youngsters who call themselves the Old Aikens trounced them 16-8.

Because he was the only uneliminated Britisher, attention in the open was naturally focussed last week on Irish Capt. Roark of the Hurricanes, whose team had gained the finals by its single victory. British sportsmen, dismayed by the fate of Eastcott, more anxious than cocky U. S. prognosticators, awaited news of the encounter of Roark and Hitchcock in the final chukkers of the Open Championship. Despite his successive defeats, friends of Soldier-Poloist Tremayne insist that he is not one to quail before enemy fire; that he will next year return to competition...
...fogs gathered over Pebble Beach, obscuring the fame of California's golden climate. Then up stepped young John Goodman of Omaha, the boy who rides to tournaments in freight cars and plays good golf when he gets there. (He won the Trans-Mississippi in 1927.) At this year's Open he qualified with the leaders, later putted disastrously to early elimination. Before Champion Jones's breakfast had properly settled, young John Goodman had won three holes. Jones caught him at the 12th, lost him again at the 14th, left the tournament i down. "I'm proud," said young John Goodman...
