DESPITE the stormy weather nearly
1000 people witnessed the doWnfail OIL
the Springfield polo team last hlsn''
The victory was so complete and so ue-
cisive that no excuse can pc nlaue ioi
the visitors. They We're outplayeo w
the Blues at every point OF the gaine'
and barring Hipson and Sword no oril-
liant work was shown by the SLACK
birds. Their work was nearly al III
dividual play while that OF the Biucs
was charac .erized by team work from
first to last. Hipson gave Latlohs
some hot drives but the latter was
equal to the occasion. SWORD ala soiile
splendid work in front of the spring
field goal and could hardly be plaiaed
for the large total that was roiled UP
against him The victory amply atoned
for Monday nights defeat at Spring
field and the crankS are now wonder
ing how it all happened. The first goal
was scored by New Haven, Bone pass
ing the ball to Whipple, who sent 1t
through Swords legs a few minutes
later piece of beautiful play on Bones
part again enabled Whipple to score.
A few seconds later Bone, who was
shooting with great accuracy, sent in
singer to Sword, which landed safe
in the netting. Forty-fiye seconds lat
er a piece of careless play in front Of
New Ravens goal enabled lllTson to
poke the ball past Lations and thus
score their first and only goal. The
second period opened with the Spring
fields on the defensive. Bone, who was
playing like a flash, carried the ball
through the defense round the cage
and poked it past Sword. This piece
of clever work was received with great
applause. A splendid pass from Bone
to Whipple enabled the latter to score
the sixth goal with hard drive. At
this period of the game Bone, Whipple
and Legion We're working like clock
work together, while several smart in
dividual plays by the latter was richly
applauded The seventh goal of the

Whiting enabling Bone to do the need
full. Bone was knocked out by a swift
ball from Whpple's stick, which hit
him on the back of the head, rendering
him unconscious for some time.
He ultimately recovered, much
to the joy of the cranks
who cheered him to the echo. The third
period was all in favor of the Blues.
Bone and H. Whiting retired and were
replaced by Gavitt and w. Whiting.
Gavitt was successful in adding another
two points to the total, and another two
by Whipple finished the contest.
Captain Whiting and his men deserve
much credit for the form shown by
each and every man on the team. Their
playing was perfection and would be al
most impossible to beat The clock
work precision with which the team
worked together was a decided contrast
in eoinpa rison with the Individual play
shown by the visitors. The lineup and

RIOTOUS POLO IN NEW BRITAIN.
New Britain Oct 31.-Waterbury put
up a riotous article of polo in her game
with New Britain tonight and as the
result lost the only goal she made in
the first period on fouls. Wiley was
the chief offender, but Smith stirred up
the crowd more by laying down in the
