...decisive 8 to 2 victory over the Varsity six in a game played Saturday night at New Haven. The Elis went out ahead in 2:13 of the first period and piled up a commanding 5 to 0 lead on the misplays of the Harvard defense before Gordie McGrath scored the first Crimson goal in the closing seconds of the middle period...
...until twenty seconds before the end of the second period did Harvard score. Then the makeshift second line of Dick Noone at center with Gordie McGrath and Bob Cox on the wings turned the trick.

Hodder will start his only dependable line of Captain Pren Willetts, Burgy Ayres, and George Duane, backed up by the defensive trio of Stacy Hulse, Sherm Gray, and Ab Fenn.

...Hodder decides to save McGrath for Dartmouth and Yale, Bill Claflin will probably pivot the same two forwards, but in this case the trio will serve as the third line. The all-Sophomore group of Caleb Loring, George Gebelein, and Johnny Paine will see action either as the second or third forward wall, depending on McGrath's fitness for action...
