The Dominion polo tournament continued at Claudelands today, when a large gallery saw among various fine games the final of the Savile Cup competition between Cambridge A and Cambridge B.
Results today were:— Junior Cup.—Matangi B 6, Waimai B 5.
In the handicap cup series Morrinsville (handicap 9) beat Matamata B (10), by 2.0* goals to 12; Glen Murray (7) beat Matamata A (7), by 11 to 8; Waimai (7) beat Rangitikei (7), by U to 8; Waihou A (12) boat Cambridge C (12), by 20 to 13.
The final, for the Savile. Cup resulted in good polo being seen, but'was not as brilliant a' game as the : Cambridge A-Hawke's-Bay semi-final ■ yesterday, as this is considered to have been the finest exhibition in New Zealand for many years. * Today Ken Peake was 'again the spectacular player in the Cambridge A ranks, and he scored five brilliant goals with long powerful hits. He is undoubtedly the leading exponent of the game in the Dominion. R. Hannon was the best of the Cambridge B players, who played better than the score indicated, being unlucky with several good shots. The A team won by 11 goals to ,4 and thus retained;the Savile Cup for- the third successive year. ' ,■'■'■■■■
