Muncie fans, to the number of 1,600 found solace In the victory. Muncie Muncie finished last In the I. S. L. it Is to be remembered. . Jean, charged with the work of covering Duggan, and Griffith delegated to smother Harkens, performed their work well judging from the Newcastle total It took Muncie two long periods to get started, but once the skids were placed, Newcastle slipped rapidly. Summarizing, all-teams .of the I. S. L. fared fairly well. Newcastle won the flag; Muncie beat Newcastle; Richmond beat Muncie in league standing and Indianapolis furnished the players who broke the champs in the post season series. Exit. polo. . :
