Cornell is this year stronger than ever before, having developed an effective blocking game and consistent team work, and the fact that the game will be played on their home floor is to their advantage. However, by fast, hard playing, Harvard should be able to keep Cornell's score down. This game will be the second one played by Harvard in the Intercollegiate League...
...centre is the weakest player at present, partly on account of his changing from forward to centre. Bigelow, substitute for Story at left forward, is not up to his usual standard. Most of the work will probably come on the guards. Hanavan and Fosdick. Their work, fortunately is fast for this time of season, and with good support should break-up the defense of the opposing forwards. By far the most serious fault of the team at present is the inability to throw goals when good opportunities offer...
...hockey team won its first intercollegiate championship game from Princeton in New York on Saturday night by a score of 4 to 1. It was an exciting, fast game with the result in doubt until near the end. Foster scored a clean goal for Harvard in the first three minutes. After a period of even, hard playing, Leake scored for Princeton and the first half ended in a tie. In the second half Harvard played with much greater speed and accuracy and scored three goals by steady team work and brilliant shooting. Foster shot one and Souther two of these...
...most encouraging feature in the play of the Harvard team is the spirit of fight with which every man goes into the game. It was largely this which won the game with Holy Cross on Wednesday. A fairly fast and consistent team play has been developed and this, added to effective body-checking of the opposing team, serves well to keep the ball in the opponents' territory. The two most noticeable faults of the team are the fumbling on fast passes and a tendency on the part of the forwards to attempt goals when running and before securing a balanced...
...noticeable fault is a tendency of the defense to play up too far, and thus leave their territory exposed. In general, through the season thus far, the work of the team has been very varied, though on one or two occasions it has been excellent. Princeton has a very fast team, of the members of which Captain Purnell, Leake and McClave played last year. During the Christmas recess, Princeton played three games in Pittsburg, beating the All-Scholastic team 1 to 0, but losing the other two games to the Keystone team and the Victoria Hockey Club by scores...
