...hockey team. In the second place, it was built on reclaimed land, which caused the water to run out and the ice to crack in consequence when the tide was low. This year arrangements must be made early if the project of having a rink is to be successful, and there is no reason why it should not be so. The most important factor for its success is to have the plans drawn up by some one who thoroughly understands the construction of an ice-rink.

Kernan also showed skill in throwing off tacklers which was lacking in the other backs. Stillman was weak in line bucking, but his punting was excellent. With good work...
...work this fall is chiefly for the benefit of new and inexperienced candidates. If they learn the rudiments of the game now, it will be possible for them in the spring to compete for the University team with a fair chance of success. Class teams will be formed early in the spring to play for a set of cups; and from these class teams the University team will be selected...
