Already the E.B.A. has been in-
teresting itself in the standardisa-
tion of the game south of the Border with a view to taking over all constituent clubs and legislating for them in future. The visitors in the past games were a little bit handicapped with the shortness of our rinks and the presence of the horizontal sticks in the middle, which precluded firing, whilst their sight-seeing jaunts left them a little jaded when the last game came to be played.
Still, it was in the final tussle that victory nearly smiled on them, a draw
of the two rinks on one engaged being quite a good criterion of the play. There is a future for the indoor game, and London, with its twenty or so new enclosures for the Winter, is certainly not going to be left in the cold.
