Bridgeport, Conn, Nov. 12.-With Kid
Duggan and Fido Sutton I'm the ranks, the
Dumplings played sensational game last
night and made the fast Providence qUin-
tet bite tho dust by the score OF 10 g.
The rink was packed with 1000 enthusiasts
and they fairly made the rafters ring
when the locals went after the visitors
from the first note OF the whistle and pro-
ceeded 10 make them take TO the tall TIM
ber
Kid Duggan got a big reception when
he appeared on the floor, and was wildly
applauded all through the game. lie Gagged
three OF Bridgeport's five goals and was
very much I'm evidence while the battle
was on. Fido Sutton. another arrival
from the West, was at goal for the Dump
lings. The former Waterbury star gave
fine exhibition. which caused the fans
to put the sign OF approval on him imme-
diately. He showed some wonderful stops
and once in a while to vary the monotony
he grabbed an opposing player and gave
him gentle shove down the floor.
Jason was In the limelight much OF the
time, his two goals being beauties. The
playing OF the two old relables, Griffith
and Woods, was the same excellent brand
for which they are noted. Their block
ing was superb.
Providence has n fine team. The famous
Nick McGilvray is just as fleet as ever.
and is the same clever juggler. Mary
Ann Tibbitts al goal came i'm for a great
deal OF jollying from the crowd by his
really fine exhibition of goal tending.
Had 1t not been for his efforts Bridgeport
would have rolled up a much larger
score.
AS soon as the whistle sounded the
Dumplings started to mix things. The
applause nearly lifted the roof when Kid
Duggan got the ball on good pass and
slipped Ii by Tibbitts in IS seconds The
players worked hard the remainder Of
the period, and often led the ball up TO
the goal only to see IL kicked away. The
defensive play of both teams was OF the
first order But there was no further
scoring. In the second period there was
the same determined effort TO ring up
goal. After "A miXup in front OF the Prov
ldence goal Phil Jason threw the ball I'm.
but Referee Tommy Leahy caught him
and called a foul. Finally after lots Of
excitement had brought the bleacherites
to state of desperation McGilvray tied
the score by goal in 9:52. II was the
only goal OF the period
In the .last round there was lots doing.
Duggan sent Bridgeport ahead by a goal
i'm 3:29 and McGilvray tied things again
by tally in 1:50. Then Duggan scored
in 3:35 and Jason followed with ono I'm I2
! seconds. a pretty piece OF work. Mccall
vray got one past Sutton in 2:02. but Ja-
son gave his team a safe lead by chalk
ing one up i'm 1858. The summary:
