THE NEW YORK LACROSSE TOURNAMENT.

The lacrosse event of the week will be the gathering of college clubs and other lacrosse organizations at the Polo Grounds in New York next Saturday to contest for the Oelrichs cup in the regular annual lacrosse tourney. At a recent meeting of the club delegates the following programme of the tourney was arranged: The games will begin at noon on Saturday next, at which time the lacrosse twelves of Harvard and Yale will enter the lists. This match will be followed by a contest between the twelves of the New York University and the Bloomfield Lacrosse Club. The third match will be between the New York Club twelve - the present holders of the cup - and the Princeton College twelve. The National Association rules govern the games, and each match will be decided by the best three out of five goals, the time limit being one hour. If neither side scores three goals in that time the most goals scored within the hour will decide the match.
