Right on the send off III the secon d
period MoGilyary of Bath got into a
scrap and held man as If there had
been no referee present. A foul was
called on him but MoGilvary didn't stop
at one foul. He made many more which
the referee didn't see, but which were
fouls for all that. Furbush Gagged the
ball for Portland's third goal, and things
looked rosy for the game. Then Bath
had streak of luck. j. Mooney won
the rush and sent the ball bouncing
easily towards Portland's goal. Allen
had up to this time made several
phenomenal stops, but this easy bouncing
ball got By him and Bath had scored. A
few minutes later McGilvary sent an
other bouncing ball along which Allen
did his best to stop, but which Gagged 1T
self and gave Bath the second goal. Nc
Gilyary's share in this goal was clearly
due to great luck as he ait she ball back
handed and without care.
Aliens WORK up to this point, and in
deed through the whole game should not
pass without recognition. He made SO
many wonderful stops that it would ba
difficult to enumerate them. AT this
point in the game Allen caught hard
drive of the ball between his legs, took
1t out behind the goal, hard pressed by
Baths men and then rushed it down the
hall beyond the danger limit. For this
deed Alton justly deserved the great ap
plause, Portland won the sixth goal ON
Whipple and Dawson's fine playing, and
tho period ended. Portland, a; Bath, 2.

been different
j. Mooney Gagged the ball for Bath
again, making that teams fifth goal and
winning the game. 1t was cleverly done.

CURED rank piece OF injustice. Bath g
clever goal tender, Murphy, got tangled
up in the cage netting and fell down.
Whether this was done Intentionally or
not is another question, but anyway he
fell down right in front Of the Bath goal,
and just as Portland man hit the ball
for the cage. Referee Orr must have seer
Murphy on the floor, entangled in the
netting. and if he did see him should
have blown his whistle. But he didn't
blow it, and the bali was still in play,
no matter whether Murphy was standing
on his head or not. The bali struck by a
Portland man was Gagged in Baths goal
Referee Orr decided it to DO no goal On
tho ground that Baths goal tender was
down. He made mistake, but possibly
he was trifie excited, and didn't under
stand Just what had occurred. Portland
should have bean awarded that goal
which would have tied tho score and
may have been the means of giving us
the game. On this ground Manager
