At Meadow Brook

Courteous centaurs again pranced out upon the smooth surface of In- ternational Field, Meadow Brook Club, Long Island. Thousands clamored in the light blue grandstands. Thomas Hitchcock Jr. smote the first goal and the U. S. team led the British team. Hitchcock Jr. smote the second goal; and the third. He smote five goals in the game; J. Watson Webb smote two; Devereux Milburn, U. S. captain, one. Malcolm Stevenson, fourth player on the team, smote none, but played valiantly. In the seventh chukker he slipped from his horse and lay, a white figure, on the green grass. His knee. struck by a fiercely-driven ball, was paralyzed. He rose; walked around; remounted; finished the game.

Britain, losing, smote five goals, but played a far fiercer game than in the opening match (TIME, Sept. 19) when the U. S. won 13 to 3.

The U. S. kept the International Cup.

The next International Polo matches will be played in 1930.
