The evening tribune. (Pawtucket, R.I.) 189?-190?, 1897-03-10

period.
After two minutes play in the second
period Roberts made goal on pass from
Williams, Doe played a sidewalk game,
and did not come in the street at all, but
was apparently satisfied with instructing
his men to get in the game from the curb
stone.
Freddy played the weakest game OF any
man on his team, and took good care to
keep out of harms way the greater part OF
the time.
Bone scored the next goal for Pawtucket,
and although the "Kid" and Dump Will
liams tried there best to pull 1t out, the
ball remained persistantly in the cage.
The next events of interest were two
collisions between the 'Kid" and Bone.
These followed in rapid succession, but
the referee was apparently engaged in the
study of astronomy, and did not see either.
A,drive from Cunningham went in and
out of the New Bedford goal, and an in
teresting little session took place in front
of the cage. No foul called. The "Kid"
deliberately fouled Cunningham, as usual,
not noticed, and Dump, moment later,
tried the same game with the same sue
cess. The sixth and seventh goals were
scored by Doe in rapid succession. The
first he secured because there was no de-
fence offered, and the last was an easy
drive that passed Lations.
For few minutes the game was unin-
teresting. Bone got several drives at the
New Bedford goal, but all OF them went
high, several of them landing among the
spectators on the stage, and the younger
element called Bone the Indian for his
imitation of Tom Cotter.
Lations got into the game at this stage,
and there was little fault to be found with
the remainder OF his work. The "Kid,"
to give the devil his due, played good
game of defence during this period. The
bell rung as Roberts was taking the ball
up the rink with the Pawtucket defence
in hot pursuit.
Bone had been slammed, jammed, pulled
and thrown until he was about played out,
and Captain Whiting substituted Leydon
at the opening Of the third period, and
Billy gave as good as he received from the
ruffians. Shortly after the opening of the
period the "Kid" pulled Cunningham over
and threw him, the referee looking the
other way. No foul called. The Whalers,
encouraged by their success, committed
foul after foul, and one of the most ap-
parent, which passed unnoticed, was the
deliberate throwing of Leydon by Will
liams.
The Tigers were working hard and play
ing good game. John Smith, however,
had decided night on, and stopped drive
after drive. Williams and Leydon got in
a little row in the corner behind the New
Bedford cage. No foul as usual.
Roberts at this time put his stick
between Hobe's legs in way that was
very apt to cause serious injury, and after
the audience had called the attention of
the referee to the fact, he consented to
call a foul Roberts and Hobe have been
friends ever since they both played in
Worcester, but this dirty piece of work
has caused Hobe to cancel Roberts ac-
quaintance.
John Smith continued his good work,
and Roberts his foul play. The game was
virtually won, and toward the close of
the period the referee consented to see
Smith hold Cunningham behind the cage,
and called a foul. This was an easy one
compared with many Of the previous ones,
which interferred with the attempts Of the
Tigers to play for goal.
During the last period two drives went
in and out of the New Bedford's goal, and
one was pulled out by the Whalers.
The last goal in the game was made by
Roberts on drive which passed through
Lation's shin pads.
Regarding the game there is little fur
ther to be said. During the earlier portion
of the struggle Lations, who was not feel
ing In good shape, was trife of in his
play, but when he got thoroughly warmed
up was in his usual form. The remaining
members of the team were up to the usual
standard, and had the referee given them
q half way respectable showing the score
at the end Of the game would have been at
least tie at the end of the third period.
Doe has little to lose, as this 10 probably
ulb ihst year III iroio III thiS eSCtiohs uuu uo
has decided to win the championship by
fair means or foul, and the appointment Of
Brady to officiate i'm the important games
at the close of the season shows that he
has at least pull, with the powers that be.
Roberts was speedy, and aside from his
dirty work, played fast game. Williams
and the "Kid" will pass with the same
criticism. The star performer of the even
ing was John Smith, who played a great
game In front of his goal, and to him may
be given the credit OF the victory to the
whalers. That is as far as playing goes.
Doe did what little work he did In clean
way, but played very slow game. The
summary:
