...University basketball team defeated the second team in practice yesterday afternoon by a score of 16 to 4. The work of the men as a whole was poor and showed few signs of team-work, but this was probably due to the absence of Randall, Gring and K. Smith from the line...
...first game of the year, the Freshman hockey team was defeated by St. Paul's School at Concord on Saturday afternoon, by a score of 4 to 0.
