Owing to the lack of ice the practice of the Freshman hockey team has been very limited. About fifty candidates reported to Coach G. M. Rushmore '13, immediately after the Christmas recess. While waiting for ice during the first week the men were given practice at puck-shooting in the Cage at Soldiers Field.

After the usual preliminary drill of sending the forwards against the defence in pairs the University hockey team lined up against the B. A. A. for a 15-minute scrimmage, which resulted in a 1 to 1 tie.
