...University hockey team will meet Yale for the first clash of the series in the Arena this evening at 8.15 o'clock. Judging from statistics Harvard has a distinct advantage. Princeton has defeated Yale twice--5 to 3 and 3 to 1. Dartmouth, also, proved its supremacy over Yale in a 2 to 1 game, the same score with Which Harvard defeated Dartmouth. Although the University team has won in these cases and Yale has gone down to defeat, the scores have been small, and it is probable that the contest this evening will be close...
Practice for the University hockey squad yesterday afternoon consisted of a long scrimmage with the B. A. A. During the first thirty minutes, while the regulars were in, the play was quite fast, and the forwards aggressive enough to defeat the B. A. A. by two goals to one.

...University hockey team had two twenty-minute scrimmages yesterday afternoon, the first against the second team resulting in a 5 to 0 victory, and the second against the substitute team resulting in a 2 to 1 defeat for the University players.

Only the excellent work of S agar at goal saved the second team...

We beg, then, to recall the days when the "H" was awarded to the first four-oared crew only in case of victory on the Thames, and the "H.U.B.C." in the event of defeat; and suggest that separate insignia for substitutes be established in each sport--perhaps "H.F." in football, "H.B." in baseball, "H.U.B.C." as formerly in crew, and "H.H.T." in hockey, for since hockey has ascended to a seat among the majors it should be included. The form of insignia is a detail...
...other, especially in the "sudden death" period when a score meant a win, the crowd was given an exhibition of the coolest and most brilliant goal tending. Carnochan's work was particularly commendable for time after time it was some part of his anatomy that warded off a Harvard defeat. Some men were perhaps a little more spectacular than others; but it was really the work of the team as a whole, carefully trained in Coach Winsor's style of play, and full of that win-or-die spirit, that enabled Harvard to defeat what was generally considered...
