...third and deciding game of the Princeton hockey series will be played tonight when the University and Tiger sevens clash in the Arena at 8.15. Each team has won a game from the other by the narrow margin of one goal and in both of these contests there was little to choose between the opposing aggregations...
...defeats have been at the hands of the University, Yale, Dartmouth and the B. A. A., while the victories have been over St. Paul's School, Williams, Yale and the University. Twenty-three goals have been scored against the Princeton goal tenders, and the same number by the Tiger forwards. Captain Schoen is the high scorer with ten goals to his credit. On the other hand the University has won six contests and lost but three, scoring 32 goals to its opponents...

This is true especially of Captain Schoen and Humphreys, the centre pair. In G. A. Percy '18 and E. O. Baker '17, however, they will be opposed by the fastest of the University forwards and the best man in the forward line defensive game, respectively. T. H. Rice '17, with...
