...second by Hopkins on an equally clever bit of work. Phillips took the puck from near the middle of the rink, and skating straight down the ice between the point and cover-point, skilfully avoided the man in goal and slipped the puck into the cage. This was after almost twelve minutes of the second half had elapsed, and the Toronto players, realizing that it might be the only score of the game exerted every effort to tally, moving their outer defence well up toward the Harvard goal and shooting for the cage at every opportunity. It was largely Gardner...

Your recent article on the comparative desirability of Memorial Hall and of the Harvard Union as boarding places for students calls for a word of explanation. The almost universal consensus of hygienic opinion today is against eating houses that provide for their patrons no attractive rooms for pleasant social intercourse before and after the meals. "To chat and smile and wait awhile" instead of rushing in and out is now a rule of health for all self-respecting persons so widely recognized that no restaurant or dining room is considered well regulated that is not immediately connected with a pleasant...

...University hockey team was swamped 7 to 1 in a long, hard scrimmage with the B. A. A. team in the Arena yesterday afternoon. The B. A. A. team was in rare form and with a speedy attack penetrated the University team's defence almost at will. The latter played a very poor game, allowing the opposing forwards to get inside on nearly every rush and leaving the burden of the work on the goal-tender. As was the case in the Ottawa game, the University forwards were not together on the attack. Several times one of the centre...

...just what the benefits of entering the Yard for the Senior year are. These men spoke in an attempt to crystallize opinion and so strengthen action, but much depends upon the spirit in which their words have been received. I firmly believe that the present strength of 1913 is almost entirely due to the fact that such a large majority of the class are in the Yard, and I personally feel that 1914 can go one step further and fill Matthews and possibly Weld. H. R. HITCHCOCK...

...time Princeton did all its scoring, the contest was very even. Baker's wonderful speed was the feature of the game, and though he only scored once, his roving tactics kept the puck in Dartmouth's territory the greater part of the time. The playing of both teams was almost entirely individual, particularly Princeton's. Dartmouth's passing in the second half, however, improved considerably when flashes of brilliant team-work were apparent...
