EAST-WEST POLO GAME Chicagoans and others in adjacent territory will have an opportunity Sunday of seeing Tommy Hitchcock, son of F. R. Hitchcock, well known eastern owner and breeder, in action on the polo field. Hitchcock is rated the worlds greatest polo player, and in the game against the Wests All Stars Sunday at Onwentsia, pits his chosen team, consisting of himself, the Guest brothers, and Mike Phipps, also related to prominent eastern owners and partners in the noted Wheatley Stable, trained by Jim Fitzsimmons, against a selected four from the West. Another game is scheduled Wednesday, and a third, if necessary, will be played the following Sunday. The families of the four eastern players all own racing stables and are thoroughbred enthusiasts.
