(By the oficial scorer.y

Referee Doherty almost threw up the sponge in the last period of last even- ing's almost fistic battle, but victory for New Haven's fast polo aggrega- ton over Waterbury, the final score being, to 4. As 1t was, Doherty, the official in this game, the toughest of the season, lost his head and was un- able to keep track of numberless fouls in the third period. However, he did the next best thing and counted none of them. His opinion of keeping count of fouls was what he yelled up to the press box: T can't control them let them kill each other" There were at least a dozen fouls, such as punching each other, landing on each other with their sticks and tripping each other. The Waterbury aggregation had one goal taken off their number in the first period, getting three fouls. Holderness, Murray and Fahey were Waterburys chief offenders during the game. They picked Mccarthy and Bone as their instruments of torture Time and again they tripped them and when Do- herty was not looking held them and threw them aside. It may be stated, and as was expected, the Waterbury heavyweights did not dare tackle Far rell, Saunders or Mullen. They knew that they would not be able to get away without having their trickery compliments returned with little ex- tra on the side. They picked Bone be- cause he Is not in excellent condition and who does not weigh as much as they do and Mccarthy because he is young, light and Is too manly to fight. Bone and Mccarthy never pick fights nor look for any until it is violently thrust upon them. It was violently thrust upon Bone last evening, how ever principally by Holderness. After being treated past the rough. mark by the Waterbury center he started to re- taliate Twice the two men wrestled and then withdrew from each others enbrace but finally the two men went at 1t in almost fatal fierceness. They fell to the floor, Bone on top. Doherty, forgetting to blow his whistle, tried to separate the men.
 The fans in the bleachers aroused by the treatment to Bone rose in a body and had theS not been separated from the inside of the rink by netting, would have gone wildly to Bone's assistance. Two of the New Britain players start- ed to jump on Bone, but they were cooled down by Referee Doherty and separated While the men were fight ing on the floor, the other player en- deavofed to cage goals. Had not Far rell and Saunders been engaged in guarding their goal they would have put a finish to Waterbury's start. Af- ter Bone and Holderness had risen from the floor, Doherty saw the men trying franticalIy to cage a goal He then blew his whistle and the ball was not in play.
 Mccarthy played a splendid game He got ten rushes and caged three of New Havens goals He was fast and caught his passes well. He made the first goal of the game in 6:50 The two teams were tied at the end of the first period and as much time had beer taken out during the period it was de- cided to play right on. As Waterbury had one goal taken off in the second period the two teams were still tied al the close of the second. Bone landed one and Farrell two during the ina period easily winning the game.
