Miller , who has done so much for English polo , has undertaken the management of the polo section of the Panama Pacific Exposition of 1915. It is a gratifying announcement to all those who have the interests of the game at heart , says the Referee . It is a piece of good fortune also for the powers that be , for Captain Miller , in his long association with the sport , has proved himself a master in the matter of organisation . Perhaps his gifts are largely due to his wide experience . He has played polo nearly everywhere in the world where polo flourishes . This polo carnival must be a .. great event . It may lay the foundation for an international polo contest under much wider conditions than those represented by the Anglo - American Cup , and it would be greatly to the interests of the game , in a world - wide sense , if it did .
