The Local rolo Matter.
Ever sin 70 the formation OF a local polo
team there has existed more or less
jealousy and now II appears to have been
carried so far that il was thought best by
those directly interested to bring such
matters to an end. Richard Lee, who
was energetic in the movement, had some
Misunderstanding and he was tout" for a
few games. Lambert and Foster, who
were members w. the Woodbines, took
II into their heads to do az they saw ft
and they Joined the Camp Streets. Lee
would have been all right II he had OBJ.
tained what he desired and by many It was
considered that Lee was abused. The
management did not think so. Manager
Welch was determined to strsighten mat
ters out, and as near as can be learned he
has accomplished his purpose. II Is now
definitely settled that the players who
clicked over the traces" will hereafter
play with the local team or be shut
out of the amateur lealue. The game
next Wednesday evening will probably be
played by the original team with the ex-
ception OF Crowley whose health Will not
permit him to do the work.
