BROWNING DECLARES POLO IS NOT A CLOSED SPORT

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

"Polo is open to the entire undergraduate body, and I want that fact to be clearly understood," said Lieutenant Colonel W. S. Browning to a CRIMSON reporter yesterday. "If there is anyone in college who can play better polo than the men on the team, by all means let them come out and show us. They will be more than welcome."

"At the beginning of the second half-year," went on Col. Browning, "several men tried to sign up for Military Science as a half-course. When pressed, they confessed that their eagerness to take the course was due to their desire to play polo. They seemed to think that polo was open only to the military department.

"I am very sorry that this misapprehension got abroad, and I should like to announce as publicly as possible that our polo squad is open to any man in college who is good enough to make it."
