Next "Big Four." Fortunately, and perhaps it in- fluenced his decision to make room for youth, the United States Polo Association is in good circum- stances to develop a successor for Miburn without risking a fatal weakness in the next "Big Four," says Mr: Henry L. Farrell.
Of the four players who over- whelmed the British All-India chal- lengers last summer in the cup matches, three remain who are al- |most certain of their places. They are Tommy Hitchcock, the world's greatest forward, Malcolm Steven- son, who recently was raised to a ten-goal handicap man with Milburn and Hitchcock, and Watson Webb, an eight-goal man.
