Association Officers Awaiting News from Abroad—Playing in Camden. H. L. Herbert, Chairman of the Polo As sociation, and the other officers of the Ex ecutive Committee are anxiously awaiting more definite news from the Hurlingham Club re garding the possibility of a visiting polo team coming to America this season. Mr. Herbert said yesterday that he had heard nothing from abroad except from the brief newspaper ac coumte. In a view of the fact that the Hurlingham Club offered to do all in its power to Influence individual members to make up a team, Mr. Herbert hopes that a quartet of good players may be formed to give a series of interna tional games here early in the season. A meeting of the Executive Committee will prob ably be held as soon as definite word arrives from the Hurlingham Club, and, if necessary, personal invitations may be sent to other Eng ish clubs. A number of Northern poloists are now win tering at Camden,S. C., and a number of informal games have been played on the grounds of the Camden Country Club. A club tournament will be given before the close of the season. R. L. Barstow, Jr., who is a well-known player in local tournaments, is rated as the best player in the Camden Club, his handicap now being four, a marked ad vance within two years. A. D. Kennedy, Jr., and K. G. Whistler both receive three goals, while the other members who receive handi cap allowances are W. C. Salmon, S. Smith, Charles Taintor, J. Team, and E. 8. Vaux. Nearly all of these men are now playing at Camden. _The Aiken Polo Club appears to be very quiet, and there is little probability of any open tournament being given there this sea son. Some of the Northern clubs are looking ahead for favorable dates, and it is possible that the tournament lists may be arranged by the Polo Association just before the annual meeting, which will come in April.
