RICHMOND PLAYER NOW A POLO STAR

Harry Thompson, formerly with Fairview Team, Makina Good at Miles, 0. IS A GREAT GOAL GETTER I SHARON, PA., MANAGER TRIES TO I TRADE WILEY AND M'GILVRAY FOR CUNNIE, JR., AND ADO MANSFIELD. Publishers Press.1 Youngstown, O., Feb. 2. To In diana may fall the honor of being the home of one of the greatest polo play ers the game has ever known. Harry H. Thompson, of Richmond, now playing as second-rush for the Niles club in the interstate, bids fair to devel op into the greatest coverpoint that ever played polo. It is a fact that Thompson, now practically an amateur, is at this time more feared by the goal-tenders than any other rush er in this organization. Thompson played with the old Fairview amateur team in Richmond when the Western league was in its prime. From Richmond he went to Grand Rapids, where he was a great factor in landing the championship of the National league for that team for two successive seasons. This year he was signed by Manager McDermott, of Niles, and the older, players are now watching his career with great inter est. This is his first season In fast company, and he stands third in goals scored in this league, being a few ahead of the mighty Ted Lewis, who formerly played with Marion. Thompson Is a cover-point player, and is a likely candidate for the honors for merly held by Leon Gavitt of being the best cover-point in the game. The Richmond lad Is a general favorite all over the interstate circuit. Race is Hard Fought. From present indications the inter state race for the pennant may com pare with the race for first place in the American Baseball league last fall. Canton three weeks ago seemed to have a lead that it was thought could not be overcome. Beaver Falls was Intrenched In second place, but these clubs have met with reverses, and Youngstown is now in second place, and if the Phenoms keep up their present gait, the locals will soon be pressing Canton for first place. Up to Friday night Youngstown had won nine straight games. . It looks now as though Canton, Youngstown and Ak ron will be the contenders' for the first position when . the , present season closes on March 23. Talk of a post-season series Is al ready being heard. Manager Davis, of Youngstown, is anxious to arrange a series of games with Newcastle, ev en if the local club does not win the championship. His proposition is for Manager Marquis, of Newcastle, to take his pick of any players in the league, and Davis says that he will back the Phenoms to win the series. Youngstown now has Higgins and Hart, rushes; Miller, center; Coggshall, half-back, and Cusic, goal. Marquis probably would pick Lewis and McGilvray as rushers; Jean, center; Carrigdb or Gardner, half-back and Bannon of Harper, goal. Lewis and Harper are now members of the Newcastle club. Changes in Several Teams. Several changes have taken place recently in the lineups of the interstate clubs, and more are on the bills. Goal-tender Fido Sutton has left Bea ver Falls because of salary differences with Manager Eyster, and returned to his home in the East, and his place has been taken by Fredus Pence, of Marion, Ind., who formerly played with Niles. Dave Cusic has displaced Perley Graffam at goal for Youngs town, and the latter is now guarding the cage temporarily for Akron be cause of the illness of Kid Sutherland. Manager Frank 'Wilson of Sharon, is having his troubles. His three star rushers, Daly, McGilvray and Jason, are at swords points with one another, and because of this dissension the team has been losing steadily. Wil ; son wished to trade Wiley and McGil vray to Manager Marquis, of Newcas tle for Cunningham, Jr., and Mans field, but Marquis would not listen to the proposition. Jason declared pos itively Wednesday night that he had played his last game in a Sbaron unitorm. just wnat. tne outcome or tms war among players will be is un known. Wayne Fahrner, who formerly rushed with Thompson at Niles, has returned to his home in Muncie, Ind.; Heber Harrold, who jumped Akron and returned to Plymouth, Ind., has (returned to Akron and asked for rein statement, but this was refused by !

USE FOR FOREIGN SHIPS TO CARRY ARMY SUPPLIES Government Has Used Every Effort to Induce Domestic Owners to Submit Bids, But They Decline to Do So. Publishers' Press. Washington, Feb. 2. The quartermaster general is confronted with a situation which probably will compel authority to be given for transportation of supplies to the Philippines in foreign bottoms. Every effort has been made to induce domestic owners to submit bids, but the only proposal received was from the steamship China, which would not make more than a couple of trips a year, and which would not begin to carry the supplies needed. If it becomes impossible to conform with the rule that requires the shipment of government supplies in domestic bottoms, it will be necessary to make arrangements with owners of foreign ships. TO MAKE TRIP TO PANAMA Secretary Will Go There Very Soon Accompanied by a Number of Army Engineers. Publishers Press. Washington, reD. 2.
