 Polo of last evenings type as shown by New Haven Is encouraging. Bone assisted by Farrell played rings around the Hartford team, situated in second place in the National Polo league. Saunders exhibited stone wall de- fense, breaking up Hart's and Iihcoln's passes and drives and assisting much in Bones offensive work
 Hart played a great game, making all six of Hartford's goals. He was here, there and everywhere. But also here, there and everywhere he found stone-wall Saunders They fought, tugged at each other and when they broke away, Hart would bear that sweet grin while Saunders would ap- pear as unconcerned as If nothing had happened.
 Mccarthy was away off on his passes receiving of passes and drives. He had an off day and played a game which had Bone not been playing Hartford would have had little trouble in de- feating the locals
 However well the spectators are pro- 1 vided for in respect to seating accom- modation, the place picked out for re- porters is by far undesirable. A little work by McLay in either moving the piano which proves a bridge for the spectators to cross in order to get to their seats or in changing the position of the reporters seat to a place where there is no room to stretch ones legs and where one is not obliged to get up every time someone wishes to pass. No accommodation better than that afforded to the spectators is asked for but just room to move and write without being cramped.

 On next Tuesday night New Britain the league leaders, will visit the Quin- nipiac rink
 Next Thursday afternoon Bridgeport will play here and on that evening New Haven will play at Bridgeport.
