Fate Big Victor Poloists Rough9 but Sportsmen Jumper Outraces 12 Others in 3-Mile Test at Fair Hill. BT ROBERT B. PHILLIPS. Correspondent of The Stir. FAIR HILL.

September Fate, months ago considered too weak in the underpinning to continue competition, showed his heels to a dozen others today and won the second richest Jumping stake in America, the Poxcatcher National Cup Steeplechase. Johnny Harrison, gentleman jockey of Pennsylvania, piloted Campbell veteran to a 10-length victory before 25,000 over a 3-mlle route that is at least as tough as any brush course we have. Following the big bay home was William Strawbridge's Argonaut, ridden by Trainer Morris Dixon. Eastern Shore, which R. G.

Woolfe rode for Mrs. F. Ambrose Clark, finished safely in the show position. Fencing magnificently, Soldier's Pate covered the route over the 19 trying brush jumps in 6 minutes 13.4 seconds, clipping nearly two seconds from the old mark of 6:15.3. By his victory Soldier's Fate earned $3,000 for his owner.

Sweet Revenge for Winner. TN WINNING Fate, which is by Allenby out of Flying Baby, I not only fooled those who would have abandoned him to the quiet life some time past, but also gained revenge for a particular bit of injury inflicted upon his pride last year. Then Frank 1 M. Gould's What Have You won this race by a whisker, a margin gained over Soldier's Fate in the closing atride. Altogether, the fourth annual Foxcatcher meeting turned out to be a field day for James E.

Ryan, the vet- i eran hunt race trainer. He took all four of the races with horses from his bam and in one event actually bad his entry run one-two-three-four. J. V. H.

(Bobby) Davis, who rides for Ryan and many of the prominent owners in this game, picked up a dou- 1 ble for himself in the two flat races, I in which, incidentally, the results were precisely what they were in i 1936. I Richard K. Mellon's Tool Box won the mile and 7 furlongs test, and i Mrs. J. C.

Clark's Itsaboy, heavily weighted with 164 pounds, captured i the 7-furlong dash with effortless ease. The secondary steeplechase of the afternoon also was a repeat of 1936 history, since Mrs. James Brady's i Crooning Water won it once again, giving the entire afternoon a slightly unreal aspect akin to that feeling of been here before and seen exactly the same people and the i same things Soldier's Fate Has Class. much can be said about the big race except that Soldier's Fate had the stuff and he never hesitated to show it. Bell Man, Postman Home, Eastern Shore, Argonaut and many another horse that has won elsewhere took issue with the big bay horse carrying the blue and gold, but none could really make a convincing argument of the matter.

At least one fellow, however, managed to distinguish himself as the most persistent Jockey in the business today. That was R. Hayhurst. astride Charles Pierce's Daffy, which ran out, fell, refused and displayed all the other tricks of the trade without in the least discouraging the boy. He merely remounted each time, and came on at the next fence, crossing the finish line about five minutes late to the tune of a welldeserved round of applause.

There were a few other mishaps here and there over the big course, but on the whole, the horses jumped exceedingly well, and nobody came to serious grief. Summaries: FIRST RACE Hill Steeplechase. muw over Crooning Water, owned by Mrs. J. C.

AND PAMPAS' DUE FOR HOT DUEL Rumors of Feud Following Decisive Win in Is Refuted. BY JOHN J. KELLY, Associated Press Feature Service Writer. NEW America meets South America for what may be the polo supremacy of the world. And to hear some of the rumor-starters on the sidelines of the polo test matches, which just have ended, think all the high goal American players were prepared to stop at nothing short of murder in out-roughing the visiting Argentines, who play their first serious match in the open September 16.

This isn't true. The very men who appear to be the roughest on the field usually are the best players and the finest sportsmen. There's Tommy Hitchcock, who has thrown off the disguise of a dawdler in the last matches and revealed himself once again as the old master world's best polo player. He's rough and tough, is Tommy; he can dish it out but he can take it, too. Rumors of Feud.

'J'HE sensation-lovers have been trying to make out a case for or- ganized mayhem-on-horseback by recalling that the Argentines won so decisively last year from the Green- tree team (Bastwick. Hitchcock, Bald- ing arid Jock Whitney) because they were rougher than the and perhaps just a bit As the gossips have it, a feud began i then. Hitchcock is the first to deny this. "The Argentines beat us because they played better polo and for no other reason. They taught us some- thing we needed to know and we're fools if we don't make the best use of the Certainly, the San Jose players from Buenos Aires ride and play as though the devil were chasing them.

climb the goal posts on horseback if it would help them shoot a winning point. But they are fine sportsmen and no group is louder in declaring this than the American players been bumped most violently by them. Andrada Knows the Tricks. gIG (194 lbs burly Manuel Andrada of the Argentine team is afraid of nothing. Older than his teammates, he's been playing polo for 20 years, and he knows all the tricks.

He plays the back position on his team and it takes a first-class man to get through the Andrada defense. In the test matches, during a slashing game w'ith Greentree. Andrada, in dribbling the ball through t.ne posts after a brilliant, unassisted run down the field, ran down a goal tender and knocked him unconscious. The horseman, the victim and 7,000 persons were so intent on the beautiful play that not one person saw the impact of horse against man. When the veteran gets an opportunity to star everybody watches.

Luis Duggan, lithe, almost debonair, is the goal scorer par excellence. Not so young or light as Bostwick or Iglehart, he is one of the cleverest players in the world. If Greentree meets San Jose in the open (and every one is certain they will), be riding against Tommy Hitchcock. The fireworks should be very bright, and the going sportsmanly, if rough. Gazzotti Well Known Here.

who also was here last year, gives no quarter and asks none. He bumps his opponents with right good will and when he rides off a player that player knows been in a tussle. Heriberto Duggan, young and handsome brother of Luis, is new to ican spectators this year. A five-goal player, he is replacing the almost legendary Roberto Cavanagh, nine- goaler who caused such havoc among American opposition last year at Meadow Brook. Heriberto improves with every contest and very easily he could develop into one of polo's greatest players with proper seasoning.

I He's already good enough to worry the men who must play against San i Jose. Greentree or Old Westbury or San Jose is expected to win, but all the old "sure-thing about the outcome have been discarded. Old Westbury (Iglehart, Phipps. Smith and Sonny Whitney) has beaten San Jose in the test matches: Greentree has beaten Old Westbury; both teams have beaten San Jose, but it is wdse to remember that it takes time for ponies to get into condition after eight weeks on shipboard as the South American mounts were. Ponies being at least 50 per cent of a worth, this becomes an important factor.
