The polo enthusiasts from this city were
very much In evidence at last nights
game In Infantry Hall between Lynn and
Providence. Even play resulted in the
first Inning, neither team being able to
score a goal. Dickie Pierce notched the
first point for the visitors after three
inmates OF scorching play in the second
half. He juggled the rubber the entire
length OF the rink and pushed 1t into the
net from the side. There was great re-
joicing from the Pawtucket contingent.
Then the Grays tied the score, but after
that performance the Lynns walked away
from their opponents and put nine
straight goals to their credit.
The playing OF the entire Lynn team
was OF the gilt edge order, Pierce and
and Menard displaying old time form.
With last nights form continued the
Lynns would soon forge to first place.

ture m this city at the present time and

Several Of Tho prime movers In tho mat
