A young woman and man are resting on their stomachs on cushions in the open back of a station wagon. Caption reads: "Miss Ruth Wyerstad, 1914 E. Edgewood Av., Shorewood, and Dave Onderdonk, Route 2, Cedarburg, found the back of a station wagon a good place to watch the polo game at Uihlein field on W. Good Hope Rd. The Milwaukee team captained by Robert A. Uihlein, Jr. won the second game of the season with the Oak Brook team of Hinsdale, Ill., 8 to 10. The first game was played in St. Louis, Mo., last week."
