...playing their strong opponents, Hills and Cushman. The Tigers' defence was superior to their offence, but the Crimson backs proved the stronger trio. Captain Morgan and Doty not only played a fine defensive game, but they were also Harvard's most brilliant offensive factors. Together they carried the puck down the ice time after time, but Ford, the Princeton goal-keeper, was on the alert and their attacks were in vain. Percy and Curtis, the centres, played a strong game, for the University and although a good many of the former's shots went wild, his fast skating scored...

The wings have improved greatly in this department of the game, and both W. Morgan and Thacher, who have been playing the end positions, are following the puck closely...

Princeton gained the advantage, however, and early in the period Cushman, the left wing of the Tigers, scored the first goal of the game. The Yale seven rallied when the score was against them and after the puck had shifted in several dashes up and down the rink, Burgess, the Yale rover, tied the score with a well-aimed shot from a position well in front of the goal. Captain Peacock a little later won the game for his team with a hard shot past York, the Yale...
