The work of the rival goal guards suffered from a lack of practice, and more goals were tallied from long shots and mad scrambles than is usual in a college game. With five minutes of the second period gone. Everett, Dartmouth right wing, took a mad swipe at the puck, sent it three-fourths the length of the Arena, and sunk it for a score...

All the equipment is certainly gone, and it seems that only the word of the weather burean can keep Captain Giles from the damp quill and the two-a-day.
