cars powered with tngines havfng a maximum piston 1 'placement of 21 cubic inches. Translated into European terms this Is two litres. The 1922 500-mile race, the tenth annual event, will be for three litre c-a"s, or

engines of 183 cubl". inches, the rame size as the 1920 and 1921 rats. This Is the fifth time tha the Indianapolis track hat) reduced the engine sizes for the cars competing In the five-century., which la the classic of all the world's speed events annually. Off hand such roductinn n-riiiii

seem to reduce the speed of the cars. Such Is not the case. The automo-'

tive engineers have always been able to obtain more speed in fact, by speeding up the engines and lengthening the stroke of the motor, which is to say that the diameter of the cylinders are reduced.

This is one of the first photographs to be received of the international polo match, held recently in England, in which the

American team overwhelmed the British aspirants for the cuj. Photo shows Major Lockett of the British team riding off J.

ing the players is to "prove by the I teammates of these players that there .was no crooked playing." Inasmuch as several of the Plavers
