ARMY POLO FORCES ROUT HARVARD RIDERS 24 TO 0

CRIMSON MALLETMEN DEFEATED THIRD CONSECUTIVE TIME

Army horsemen, fulfilling predictions, severely trounced the University polo team last Saturday by running up a score of 24 to 0 against the Crimson invaders.

The game was played before a large audience at the West Point riding hall. The cadets, shooting accurately and riding hard, bombarded the Crimson goal from the first, running up 6 points in the first chukker. Wing and Beebe shared honors, each tallying 5 points. The Army scored, on an average, one goal every two minutes.

Handicapped by the absence of Captain E. T. Gerry '31, who is ineligible for play, and mounted on strange ponies, the Crimson mallet men went down to their third straight defeat, while the Army, embittered by last week's defeat at the hands of Yale avenged its closely contested loss to Harvard of last year. When the West Pointers invade Harvard next week, the Crimson team will have a chance to retrieve its loss.
