A Hteady rain that did not cease

caused many hundreds of fana to stay
away from the Held under tho belief
that ihero would bo no game, llul
when the rain ceased and it waa noted
tllitt iho playing area was not badly
soaked, plana were made to proceed
with the afternoon program.
Some of the muinbora of the polo
club did not tthow up but Coach Harrison
called upon several Essex troop
players whe-wero present to till in and
by'arranging the lineups to give good
balance to the team power, the spectators
really got plenty for tholr money.
Joe' Mates became lost some
whoro between Wateree and Camden
and did not show up until the start of
the fourth chnkker. He celebrated his
arrival by driving through a counter

The Invaders bad Hums at No. 1.,
Lieutenant Newton Brown of Port |
Bragg at No. 2. Lieutenant Ray
Rraucbll of Fort Jackson at No. 3 and
Harrison at No. 4.
It looked like a rout In favor of the
Ramblers at the start of the game as
Boy kin and Light fool each scored in
the early minutes of the period. But
the Yellow silks finally rallied and
when the bell rang the teams were
tied. Burns and Brown scoring for the
Invaders.
The second period went scoreless
for both teams, as did the third, but
In the fourth .ghajtamiblers, with Boykin
and Bates scoring again took the t
lend. In the fifth the Yellows opened i
up a slashing attack and two beautiful |
goals bv Harrison again knotted the
score. The Ramblers however were
not to be denied and Boykin's third
goal of the game put the Blues to the
front, never to 'be headed. "W ben
DuBose posted a marker in the sixth,
the Blues had the game won.
The game was witnessed by a crowd
variously estimated at from 1000 to
1200. which was four times the number
expected in view of the rain and
the cloudy skies coupled with a biting
west wind.
