EIGHT POLO CITIES.
An Eieht-Ciub League Has Been Forme,
in This State-Coming Meeting in Ney

An Eieht-Ciub League Has Been Formed
in This State-Coming Meeting in New
Haven.
Bridgeport, Oct. 1.-THE final step in
the formation of state polo league
will be taken at meeting of the pro-
motors in New Haven, October II, and
the polo cranks of the state will be
given q positive assurance of WIN
ter's sport. Eight cities will be repre-
sented in the league, and the hackers of
the game in each city are prepared to
go ahead and pay over their fees, for
all arrangements have been made in all
of the cities except Bridgeport and
Hartford, and the closing of negotia-
lions for the Kinks is now but mat
ter of few days in each place.
The circuit will comprise Bridgeport,
New Haven, Meriden, Hartford, Spring
field New Britain, Waterbury and
Derby. The two last named places are
the additions to the old state league.
w. M. Harris, who will manage the
local team, said this morning that he
had not yet secured q rink, but that by
Monday he would be in a position to
announce where the games will be
played. Mr.. Harris has two places in
view, but has not decided which to en-
gage. He is enthusiastic over the pros
pect of successful season, and says
the state is polo crazy. At first there
was no hope of getting Hartford to en-
ter the league, but when the intimation
of the formation of the league reached
that city the popular demand for a
place in the circuit was so strong that
a meeting at which all doubt was re-
moved was at once held.
If the right arrangements can be
made in this city Manager Harris will
combine with L. M, Rich in the man.
agement of a rink in which basket ball
will be played between teams from cit
les in the polo circuit and bicycle races
will be conducted. Mr. Rich is conf
dent of the success of such a plan, and
Mr.. Harris fully agrees with him.

ton to wind up it's affairs and, after the
payment of all debts and obligations,

file in the office of the secretary of

ment to the charter was adopted to
provide for any contingency that might
arise and a sale of the property made if
: desired. Under the original charter
granted in 1928, the sale or transfer of
the property was prohibited.

ent at Yesterdays meeting. The 9th
ers reside in various parts of the Unit
ed States. There are now living thir-

love respectively with Midshipman Lee
Ward and Bininger Bonanza, the for
mer a cadet from Annapolis, the latter

and Bonanza has just arrived from

tions of the young men, however, are
differently bestowed; Ward being in
love with Annette and Bonanza with
Millicent. Miss Tea Caddy, profess
sor of the school, is in love with DR..
McBosh, the principal. With a keen
propensity for match making, she pro-
poses a plan to Ward and Bonanza to
disguise themselves each in the others

run away from the ship, from the

by earning his gratitude. This graft
tude blossoms into affection and Mung
makes violent love to her to her I'M

tete-a-tete with the doctor, in the most
interesting portion Of which Mung APP
pears and attacks McBosh with jealous
fury. Mung finally succumbs to the
doctors prowess and the tete-a-tete is
resumed. At the conclusion Of Lee
