Charles von Stade

Charles S. von Stade was an American polo player whom his Wikipedia biography calls a polo champion. He was born on 24 November 1919 and died on 10 April 1945, at the age of 25, so his life and playing career were short. Polo is the team sport played on horseback, in which mounted players use long-handled mallets to drive a ball through the opposing goal, and this atlas files it with the equestrian sports. The source article is a one-sentence stub that gives no teams, tournaments or titles, so this entry records only his nationality, his dates and his description as a champion, and does not guess at the rest of his record.
