...game marked by brilliant playing the Freshman hockey team defeated the Andover seven by the score of 12 to 2 on the Charlesbank rink at Soldiers Field on Saturday. Although Andover's defence was bewildered before the powerful rushes of the Freshman forward line, the game was not as one-sided as the score would seem to indicate. Andover fought from beginning to end and seriously threatened the 1920 defence at the start and toward the end of the game. After the first few minutes of play when the Freshman offence had gotten warmed up, 1920 played excellent hockey, keeping...
...game of the Crimson-Tiger series. The fact that the University seven defeated Dartmouth 3 to 0 in comparatively easy fashion a week after the latter had taken a game from the Tigers, 6 to 3, makes the Crimson a slight favorite, although Princeton's practice, culminating in a brilliant 4 to 3 victory over Yale last Wednesday at New Haven shows that the New Jersey team has developed very fast. Princeton has played six games so far, winning from St. Paul's, Williams and once from Yale, and losing to the B. A. A., Dartmouth and in the first...
...strong is evidenced by the fact that there are six veterans in the lineup, Ford, Scully, Humphreys, Schoen, Hills and Cushman. Comey, a substitute last season, is playing a strong game in the place at coverpoint left vacant by the graduation last year of Captain Peacock. Princeton has a brilliant centre pair in Captain Schoen and Humphreys, and a forward line that works well together. Scully at point is a veteran player; Comey has proved his ability this year, and Ford is among the best of collegiate goal tenders. In the defensive department, however, Princeton is not as strong...
...expected, nearly all of the departments, affected by the recent increase of tuition, with the brilliant exception of the Business School, have suffered a slight loss in the number of new students. The increase of tuition was a measure of imperative necessity, and it is hardly probable that it has deprived Harvard of more than a very small number of students...
...Percy '18 was easily the star for the University, for not only did he score all the team's four goals, but played a brilliant game in every department. Twice he put beautiful long shots past J. I. Wylde '17, shooting from an angle and at a considerable distance up the rink, and twice he scored after a series of excellent passes in which the entire forward line took part. One of these latter was a back-hand scoop into the cage after he had drawn the goal tender out. E. O. Baker '17 also played a steady and consistent...
