prise on Prinseton last night at the St Nicho-
ias Rink by defeating The champions of last
wear by score OF 3 goals to in the second
game Of the Intercollegiate Hockey League
The winners outplayed the Tigers from the
start and were much too fast for them Their
speed the victory. for they We're not only
able to get away from their opponents when
rushing into Princeton territory, but when the
champions got possession of the puck and set
san for the Dartmouth goal the forwards on
the latter team were able overtake them and
break up every attempt at team work.
Peacock played clever game for the losers.
and had il rot been for his good work in goal
the score would have been much larger, as the
Dartmouth players kept coming right in on him
al the time. Osborne also played well on the
forward line for Princeton
The Dartmouth defence was not particularly
strong but the fast line helped as the Borwalds
were constantly falling back their own goal
This made a terrific strain on them but they
kept il up until the end.
The first half ended TO 0. in favor of Dart
mouth. Foote. who is a clever shooter on goal
making both points. Princeton could not get
going in this half. as her opponents broke UP
every semblance of team work
Princeton braced in the second half and for
come time kept her opponents on the defensive,
but ii seemed impossible TO land the puck in
the net. Time and time again the Tigers went
rushing down the ice, only TO be overtaken by
the Dartmouth forwards and forced to shoot
from q distance Their shooting has not i'm
proved any since last Saturday; the shots had
sreed but lacked direction Osbourne finally
got away with Brush, however, and between
them they managed TO elude the Dartmouth de-
fence and the former scored the first goal for
his team.
Osbourne and Phillips tried hard to repeat
the trick and came close TO another tally, Whlch
was denied them, however, for the time being
Later Osbourne landed another goal from
scrimmage.
Foote scored the third and winning goal for
Dartmouth in good combination with his for
wards. They kept up a hot attack on the Prince

as mere varieties of one species. There
is little doubt about the identity of the

that there is no more doubt about the
identity of the common trout and the
sea trout.
If there be a difference between the
adults of the two varieties there is
none between the fry. The fry of the
two kinds cannot be distinguished one
from the other until the trout leaving
