Monday evening, the team scrimmaged the Junior Olympics in Boston to accustom themselves further to the Garden ice, and Hodder spent most of the time working on his up-and-coming Sophomore line and the constantly changing second line. As things stand now, this latter trio will probably start the evening as an all-St. Paul's group of Gordie McGrath at center with Demi Lloyd and Bob Cox on the wings. Dick Noone, who figured in one of the two Harvard goals at New Haven, and Bill Claflin, will probably see action before the end of the evening, however...

Sherm Gray, Stacy Hulse, and Ab Fenn will form the defensive trio. Fenn's work in the nets was spectacular at times against Army, but he will be hard pressed to equal Yale's Bud Kiockhefer, acknowledged to be one of the outstanding goalies of the East
