II was the roughest game OF the season AND
the referees were far too lenienf In .ieir pun
ishments, for IL they had got the men under
control in the beginning there would have been
none of the roughhouse work which later de-
veloped.
AT one time in the second half there were four
men off the ice, three OF them being Yale play
ers The latter were the worst offenders in this
respect. The Tigers fighting against big Odds

time in the second period was TO 1 against
them, but they overcame this disadvantage oy
the hardest kind Of work
With only one minute left the Tigers tied the

period of five minutes full play was decided
on and this went by with no result. After .
five minute rest another 1ve minute period was
started In which Yale Tailed twice and only

net from Brush. and moment later Phillips
scored after Read had carried the rubber down
