What promises to bo the most success ful local season In polo starts today when the Aiken Tigers meet P. S. P. Randolph's Point Judith four In the first match of tho special tournament for cupB presented by the Philadelphia Country Club. The matches will be played at tho Country Club, Bala. Earl Hopping, who will manage the lo cal season, and devote such time as ho con afford to, coaching the younger ele ment, will lead tho Aiken four, which will be made up of Hopping. E. P. Brooke. Jr.; Captain J. It. Llndscy and A, P. Perkins. P. S. P Randolph, Sr. and Jr.; John It. Fell and Victor Mather will make up the Point Judith four. Charles A. Munn, Jr.. Barclay McFad den, Paul Denckla Mills and A. J. Drcxel Paul, who make up the Devon quartet, will play tho Country Club four on Friday, and on Saturday Bryn Mawr will meet the winner of the match between Point Judith and Aiken, and a specially ai ranged three-period match between picked teams will complete the Saturday program. In tho match with Devon on Satutday the Country Club will be rep resented by tho three Stokes boys, Thomas, Standley and E. Lowber, and Charles Frlck. These matches are more or less In the way of preliminary affairs, and on vir tually every day there will be something of the kind going on. Beginning Friday, May 21, the tournament for the Wood crest Trophy, the gift of A. J. Drexel Paul, and now held by the Country Club, will be played on the Bala Field, and In addition to the teams mentioned above, It Is quite likely that a four from Fort Myer will enter, and another from New York. Following- this event, the contest for the Morelton Cup, at present held by the Country Club, too, atarts with virtually tho same teams entered. Upon the con clusion of that tournament the scene Bhlfts to Bryn Mawr. Tho Philadelphia Country Club, as a team, has been playing in California nil winter, and for that reason should retnin possession of the "Woodcrcet and Morelton trophies. In nll-around team play they have quite an edge on Bryn Mawr, De von, the nittenhouse Club and the Rac quet Club at this time of the year, so without doubt they will meet with the Btlffeet argument from Aiken.

A fan from Traverse City, Mich., writes that "Bunny" llrief, the new first baseman of the White Sox, has been deceiving the publlo in a scan dalous manner. This fan says that he has known "Brief" all his life and that his real name is Tony Qretkoxo akl, and he also tells how he came to be known as Brief, ' When one of Tony's older brothers went to a factory to apply for a job about the time "Bunny" was in knee trousers, he was asked Ms name, and when he said Oretkowskl. the boss was staggered and decided he could not be bothered with stwh a name about the place. He liked the ap pearance of the lad, however, and told the timekeeper to "Make ft Brief," meaning to cut the name down to Oret or something (he that would qnswer the purpose. Th timekeeper wrote Brief, and all the rest of the boys, five of them, have been known as Brief since that day. In Traverse City "Bunny" is known as "Chi," because from the time he learned to play ball he was always talking abqut playing with Chicago Nom he is with the White Boa and making good in great style.

COOMBS IN BALL FRAY TODAY Phillies Open 3-Game Series at Ebbetts Field Dodgers Con fident of Victory. BROOKLYN, May 6. Pat Moran's Phil lies make their first appearance of the season at Ebbett's Field this afternoon and a large crowd should turn out, as the Phillies havo always been popular here, nnd are even more so slnco tholr surpris ing showing to date. Brooklyn has had a habit of starting the Phils on the down ward path, and Manager Robinson Is pro paring another surprise for tho visitors. In 1913 Brooklyn twice started the Phil lies on losing streaks that cost them first place, tho second putting Dooln's team completely out of tho race. With tho Phillies leading the league by a three game margin, Brooklyn beat them eight consecutlvo games within two weeks' time and the Phillies never recovered from tho shock. This season Moran's team was sweeping everything before It until Brooklyn started them on a slump by taking the last two games of the series. The Giants then took two out of three and the Dodgers are confident that they will take three games out of tho four sched uled In the""prescnt Berles. Manager Robinson plans to use Jack Coombs against the Phillies today. Jack pitched great ball In Phllly nnd had Moran's men guessing at all times. Coombs will face Brooklyn's "Jonah," Ersklne Mayer. The side-arm artist has found the Dodgers easier than any team In the league tor three seasons. It Is doubtful if thero Is another pitcher in the league who has the Dodgers so completely mastered. k . m C HHHHHTsfjilssssssssssssEsiBl SssBhL ' jsSL 4"lk JT , !
