Even the polo program that was so ably carried out last aeason seems to be getting away to a alow start. This is blamed on the lack of sufficient ponlee. We sure are going to mite David Wilflama, Jr., Jack Daniels and John Hill, who really made the fane happy with the bucineeC' tike conduct of the polo program a year ago.

O C P T S T O R Haasa of Nstioaslly The polo game that was offered last Sunday at Kirkwood field and which was Wltnesaed by some five or six hundred fans, did not con tribute much to the polo program —dn fact-Twe know that a number of fans present declared that they would not be beck. We believe these fans saw only the headlines in The State press to the effect that' polo would be played here Sunday. They did not sense that the game, aa announced, was a practice affair ind hence would lack some of the detalla ua- ■uaBy-- found hi a match event Be sides—it was free. Itl was a practice affair of four chnkkera with two three-men teams doing the action woi^. And the same program will obtain next Sun day for aa Manager Cyril Harrison puts it. "We Just haven’t enough ponies to put on a regular ate- chukker game." He did state, however, that he hoped that by the first Sunday in January it will be posiiUe to open up with regular games. Much work remains to be done at the polo Aeld. Whereas when the season opened a year ago everything was in readiness at the arena, this year finds the field In fair shape but the spectators area was overgrown with grass and brambles, the latter oftertng plenty of sand apnra. The grandstand is in need of considerable repair, as itepa, rails and even the Aooring, is in bad ibape.

Looks aa If the Mullins High footbeHere were a bit leery of whft would happen to them If they clashed with the Olympia Highs of Ceiumbia in a Christ- mas day battle at Maltoa field in Columbia. Mullins was strange ly silent oil the proposition of a game with the Olympia outfit, although we are told that a ma jority of the fans in that tobacco town would have liked te have had the game played. The proceeds were to have gone' to the Infantile paralysis founds tion which would have realised ■ nice sum, for our guess would be that at least 10,000 or more fans would have turned out for th*> fracas.
