POLO NOTES.

The New Havens came out on the
top of the heap in the holiday games,
winning both from Wallingford and
adding considerable to their goal regis
ter thereby, 1t may be safe to say that
their record for high goal scoring in
three successive games has never be-
fore been equalled, II goals to 2 against
the swift Meriden team on Friday
night, II goals to l against Wallingford
Saturday afternoon and again IS goals
to against the same team at Walling-
ford making total Of So goals scored
by the New Haven team, as against s
goals scored by their opponents. This
is record to be proud of, and no mis-
take. But records, like other things
don't generally come single handed and
the New Haven team now holds the
record for time scoring. Spencer, the
genial captain of the team, scored a
goal against Meriden in the short period
of & seconds. The record was seconds.
Captain Spencer repeated the dose
again on Saturday against the Walling-
fords. Winning the rush, he Gagged the
ball in seconds.
1t Is stated on good authority that be-
fore many weeks have past the team
will be housed in more comfortable and
commodious quarters in the center of
the city. Should this be accomplished
and the boys continue to put up the
crat or In ic a ia
to say that the crowds now attending
will more than be doubled.
The Boston Herald says that the New
Haven team Will likely disband for
want of support and that Spencer wants
to play for Waterbury, while Williams
will give up the game for good. With
all due respect to our esteemed con-
temporary, we would like to say that
it's energetic correspondent must have
'dreamt a dream" when he supplied
this information The fact is, the team
| is being well supported, and Spencer Is
quite content to represent the Elm City,
while Williams just delights to dance
around on the rollers
e. Gavitt Is recovering slowly from
| the treatment he received at Water
| bury.
| Many people have complained during
| the past week Of not being able to find
| out who was to play at the rink on
Tuesday and Friday evenings until they
reached there. A little judcious adper-
| Using on the part Of the management
would not only remedy this but greatly
help to swell the crowd
| During the week New Haven will
| meet New Britain, Wallingford and
Meriden and should win two out of the
three contests andsthus retain their po-
sition at the head of the league

We deem it most appropriate that SO
closely to the advent We celebrate the
passion Of the cross, The cross shad-
owed the halo of the cradle. The ao-
vent is fundamental and perpetual IN
principle, because wherever there are
souls prepared to receive Him, there is
He ever being born; while the divine
passion is competitive act, and marks
climax in history, which. beginning
and ending, has made it possible for the
heart to sing.
Then let us joy together that the way
of life Is one wherein may be found
such music as graced the coming Lord
That earth was worth all the trial, care
and love spent upon it, should make
our lives just burst with gratitude
Gratefully, then, may we, with heavenly
hosts join our voice, not out of time
| too late, but Suddenly"

YALE'S OFFER TO CORNELL,
Ithaca Crew Can Have the Choice of
Courses at New London.

ithaca Crew Can Have the Choice of
Courses at New London.
The feeling at Yale is against entering
into series Of races with Cornell for a
period of three or five years, but 1t is
still hoped that arrangements can be
made for a triangular contest between
Yale, Harvard and Cornell. at New
London, next June. Even this senti-
ment will disappear If there Is not a
change in the tactics Of the Cornell
boating authorities, as represented by
press dispatches from Ithaca.
1t has been suggested that some OF
the cool-headed men of Cornell who are
interested in boating and who would
like to see Yale and Cornell meet,
should arrange conference with sim
liar element in Yale, and bring about a
race at New London next year. There
is desire that Cornell and Yale should
have one more trial of each others skill
as oarsmen, and this can be fixed If the
hot heads of both universities are rele-
gated to the rear for the time being.
After that, if Yale and Cornell wish
to arrange for series of races, in
connection with Harvard, they can con-
slider that question.
The return of Captain Robert j. Cook,
the Yale coach, from his trip to Wash
ington has brought the question of a
Yale-Cornell race to the front again
Captain Cook, in an interview, takes
the ground that Yale's proposition to
Cornell is eminently fair, and there Is
no doubt that Captain Cooks opinion
will be sustained by the college at large
Captain Cook says that Yale would be
glad to meet Cornell, and that Cornell
has been offered the choice of the course
at New London.

Items of Interest From That Busy
Neighboring Borough.
New Years day was a model one as
far as weather was concerned, and
there was good sleighing about the
town, skating on the lake and fine
coasting on Church street hill, and what
more could be asked? There were a
few out in sleighs and enjoyed the fine
slipping, but many were afraid that the
sun would make short work of the thin
coating of ice and snow, so they did not
take the trouble to get their sleighs out
of summer quarters; but their fears
were groundless, as it kept cold all
day and they lost the sleigh ride On
Church street hill the boys and girls
were out in force and had great sport
Sleds and double-rippers were plenty
and no serious accidents are reported
On the lake the skating in places was
very fair, although inclined to be rough
and a large number were out ENJOYING
the sport. The stores closed at noon
and a large delegation headed for New
Haven to take in the matinees. The
saloons, as usual, done lively business
and showed that there were many who
had not started the new year with TEN.
