In a polo game that excelled all formei

at the Eleventh Street Rink, Wilmington,
after an extra period of seven minutes Of
play downed the big fellows from the
Monumental city by a score of two to
one. Four hundred persons witnessed the
game, and not a minute passed that the
house was not in an uproar.
Baltimore is considered the luckiest team
of the league. for in several games 1t has
popped a goal at the very last minute, but
Wilmington turned the tables lsst night
Chandler and Kirwin crossed sticks, and
at the report OF the whistle the game
started in full For eleven minutes each
side fought vigorously for supremacy and
Kirwin succeeded in drawing FIRST blood.
This was the only goal made in the FIRST
half.
In the second half the Wilmington boys
seemed to have their opponents guessing.
and phenomenal play by Cloward
brought on a goal for his side. He and
Chandler put up a fast game but Kerwin
and Logan. OF Baltimore were after them
all the time.
The second period was fun OF speed and
when it ended with the score tie at one
each, Referee Taylor called for an extra
period, the team first scoring to be the
victor.
There was riot Of shouting as the ex-
ira period began and some rough play re-
suited from the speed and determination
Of the players. but the play did not become
unseemly. At the end Of seven minutes
