BOOTS AND SADLES

The announcement that the beetic activities of Commencement Week will be added to this year by a match between the respective polo teams of Harvard and Yale foreshadows an innovation which should put a pleasurable touch of variety in the usual list of entertainment's. What with reunions, baseball games, spreads, and polo matches, the waking hours of the alumnus returning to the shadows of the Yard for the first time since graduation will be fairly well occupied. In fact he may count himself fortunate if he is still able to stand when the whistle blows, figuratively speaking, at the end of the last chukker.

From the undergraduate point of view, however, the proposed polo match or game--will be particularly interesting. This is the first year during which polo has had the status of a definitely organized minor sport, and up to date the opportunities' which the University has had of seeing its representatives in action have not been numeral. Assuming that the slight difficulty of obtaining poles can be overcome, the Class Day encounter between the two teams will demonstrate to graduates a new form of intercollegiate sport, and will indicate to undergraduates just what Captain Clark and his players have accomplished during the past season.
