...first score of the scrimmage was made shortly after the opening of the period by Hopkins, who received a pass from Sortwell from behind the goal. Phillips followed with another score, getting the puck out of a scrimmage by clever stickwork. Claflin made the third goal on a long, hard shot from the middle of the pink. The University team's final tally was the result of a fast dash up the ice, in which good passing figured prominently; Sortwell scoring the goal...

...defence has also proven a stronger combination in the recent scrimmages with the B. A. A., Technology, and the second team. In the last three encounters with these teams only one goal was scored against the University team, Gardner's clever work at the net being an important factor in this excellent showing. Another encouraging part of the defence men's playing is the improvement shown of late in getting the puck out of corners and taking it down...

...uncovered a powerful offence, which has not yet reached its full development, while the defence played a masterly game throughout. Willetts was particularly brilliant in breaking up Technology rushes. The University forwards played well together at times, the three goals scored in the first half being the result of clever passing and dodging. During the greater part of the game, however, there was little concerted rushing and considerable individual playing. The forwards showed a tendency to rove all over the rink and get out of line...

...seems as if the labor of editing this exceptionally large number had exhausted the Monthly board, and this contribution of A. W. W.'s had slipped in as they slept. No other excuse is possible. For there is here an abundance of matter--a clever character sketch by C. M. Rogers that shows he could write a story if he only had a plot; a reminiscence of boyhood written by the editor-in-chief with vivacity and charm; a story of Gilbert V. Seldes which teases the reader unnecessarily and leaves one uncertain as to whether the author is very...

...make room for Hopkins at the former position. Sortwell is the fastest man on the team, and should have no trouble in keeping his position, though Hanson will prove a valuable substitute. At right centre, Phillips, captain of last year's Freshman team, has superseded Palmer. He is very clever in stick-work but has a tendency toward slowness and individual play. Hopkins at left end is outplaying Baldwin, the other candidate for the position, his main strength lying in the accuracy of his shots. The strongest competition in the line is for the right wing position, Morgan, Devereux, Smart...
