...second half the University team got together better and played a more confident game. In this half Briggs went in for Newhall and later for Hicks while Paine took right end, vacated by Briggs. Hicks made the first goal of the half, and Pell made the next unassisted. The play then became less interesting, and although the University team could not rush successfully, Andover was kept from scoring by good defensive work. In the last thirty seconds of the game Briggs dribbled the puck down cleverly and passed to Pell who shot the goal...
...week's Bulletin, which appeared yesterday, contains a communication signed "X", which puts the vote of the Faculty to curtail intercollegiate athletics squarely up to the Corporation and Athletic Committee.

Browne, who will play left guard if Fish goes in at centre, covers his man closely and is clover at scoring from his position. Fish, who will probably, start the game at centre, is still somewhat crude in his handling of the ball but covers closely...
