...last night's 6-3 hockey victory over the University of Vermont Catamounts, the line of George Hughes, freshman Tommy Murray and Gene Purdy proved themselves to be a fiercely potent scoring unit. Everyone this side of the Mississippi knows that George can put the puck past any goaltender. Last Tuesday Hughes fittingly scored Harvard's first goal of the 1977-1978 campaign.
