The season. financially, was a dud. | Crowds were slim and little interest | was taken in any of the zames other than the battles with the Hartford Giants. Promoters will be wary of ndertaking affairs of this sort he- cause of the uncertainty of the 1 ahead. Every line of sport is su days and if conditions don't improve, there is a possibility that n will fade entirely out of | port picture. Ilights ha departed. The polo outlook isn’' bright and basketball doesn't draw the crowds of past vears. hundred and one things to le iven as reasons for this defection from the ranks. The in one. we think, is the scarcity of money with Christmas only days away. No onc can tell if condi ons arc going to pick up.
