ELWOOD'S EASY VICTORY
INDIANAPOLIS oUTCLASsED BY CAP
TAIN ROBERTs's TEAM.
Harris Not Brilliant Success at Goal
-EIwoOd Played Good Defensive
Game-Racine Tonight.

indianapolis polo enthusiasts are really
becoming weary of seeing the home team so
numerically defeated as IL was last night.
Elwood had no trouble at all running away
with victory by the score of to 3. after
Elwoods first goal was scored by Spencer
in the first period. Indianapolis was in
the lead for awhile in the opening session
of the game, but after Elwood got in the
scoring business it was nearly all Elwood.
with only a small sprinkling of goals cred
tied to Indianapolis.
Captain Hipson tried another change in
the lineup last night, and placed 'Corky''
Harris, of Muncie, at goal. Harris is al
most large enough, counting blankets. etc.
TO cover the entire opening in front of
the cage, but he had way of STOPPING
when the ball was driven toward the goal
which left an opening between his legs for
clear passage of the sphere into the
cage. Harris is too big and awkward to
successfully play the position of goal ten
der. He pulled away at the iron bars on
the cage and almost tore it loose from
the floor when changing from one side to
the other. Berry may have some faults
| but he is much better in the position than
Harris.
Gavitt was again on the rush line and
played in something like his old-time form
when he was one of the idols of the en-
thusiasts. Whipple was on the substitute
bench, but got in the game IN the third
| period, when Coggshall was forced to retire
| from an injury. He was struck over the
| eye by Fitzgerald. Lit was accident, but
| Fitzgerald played roughly throughout the
game, attempting to trip the indianapolis
| players and holding whenever he got into
| scrimmage.
| The first half of the first period was ex.
citing, and both teams played fast polo
| Gavitt scored the first goal in 2:1S, anC
| both teams showed great defensive worl
until Spencer secured the ball and drove
| it into the cage. Hipson won the next rusf
and Spencer secured the ball, driving Il
| into the cage in ten seconds
The second period was all in Elwood's
| favor, after Gavitt scored the first point
1 Elwood made four in the second.
| Two goals were scored by Elwood in tht
| third period and the crowd lost all hop,
