THE POLO GAME TONIGHT
WILL BE BETWEEN THE WATER
 BURYS AND NEW HAPPENS,

New Haven's Run of Hl-luck-Hope
 That the Turning Point is at Hand A Weak Point in the Rush Line.
 The polo game at Bowling hall to- night ought to be a good one, with the local team strengthened by the reap pearance of Hoebe Whiting in it's ranks, and Waterbury putting up the same fast game as they did last Tues day night, The contest ought to be a hummer The Tigers have always been drawing card in this city and doubt less there will be a big audience to- night.
 An old proverb says: Its long lane that never has turning" and so it is a long streak of bad luck that never has end. The New Haven polo teams recent run of i'll luck has been a long one, and they have kept sliding down the hill at rather rapid pace until they are almost as far down as that possibly can get. It is hoped that their turning point has now come, and that with the assistance and ad- vice of their veteran captain they will now begin to ascend the league ladder and keep ascending until they reach the top of the table.
 The weak point, and only weak point that now exists, is in the rush line. If the management would only secure suitable partner for Bone, let Leydon Fol 1only ;,,+n l,t Al1 inY, at ter, and with the defense taken care of by the Whiting Brothers and Lations at goal, there would be little fear of the results. Leydon has at all times played plucky game since he took up his position in front. But the cranks are unanimous that he is a star center and should be kept in that position.
 Although the Blues lost Friday nights game with Hartford, the spec tators were unanimous in their opinion that the local team played by far the better game and ought to have won. They played like clock work and to man, and but for Cusick's wonderful luck would have won.
 Hobe Whiting, the expert halfback, will play against the Champs. It will be a lively battle. Whiting is star, and is thought by many to be superior to Conway, as he does not play a rough game. His play is scien- tific and pleasing to watch, even though he is on the opposing team. The Reds must play hard to win.
 Some one has said that big Hipson of the SpringfieIds would make good golf player. But it's not so easy being a golf player, and ten chances to one if you gave the veteran rusher driver and ball that he would never hit it. Menard says: There is one improve ment that the league could make and that is to make the first rushers stop from making false starts. Time and time again they will start only to be called back.
 Arrangements have been made for series of polo games between teams rep resenting the Hartford and New Haven lodges of Elks- This was the result or conference Saturday night bewteen | w. l.. Barnard, c. J. Dillon and $. 5. Chamberlain, representing the Hart l ford lodge, and George Bone and Hobe l Whiting of the New Haven team, repre- senting the lodge of this city. Two pro- fessionals will be allowed on each team. 1 The first game will be played in New Haven on December 15 and return game will be played in Hartford the fol- | lowing week.
