Hamilton 7; Richmond 6.


After the locals had thrown away
the game through bone-headed play
ing and tied it again. 1t fell to Ham
iltons fate to win the game in thir-
teen minutes and seventeen seconds
of overtime play at the coliseum last
evening. The score was Z to 6. In
many ways the contest last evening
ago, when the Fighting Five repre-
scented Richmond in the old Western
league. That the game was fast and
full of spice is shown by the number
OF stops the boal tenders had. Ian
caster,polling SIS and Wilson So Be-
sides having many attributes of quail
ity the game was mighty rough in
spots. mix ups being the order Of the
day with Referee Williams taking the
part Of the big Marion husks.
Jones Was Put Out.
Credit for the loss of the game can
be given the defense. Lancaster at
gonl got in the air in the third period
and allowed Hamilton to take the lead.
Jones at center played we'll until he
was put out of business by being Civ
en- dose of his own medicine. Oest-
ing the other defense player played
well at times and at other times. very
much on the punk. Houghton and
Sharp for the locals played a very
creditable game and at times were on
the sensational order. Bulla, during
the time he was in the game was
there with the goods and figured in
the three goals which tied the score.
For Hamilton, Louis Quigley. first
rush, and Harry Parry, at center, both
local players, put up star games. The
goal tending of Wilson looked good
but still was shaded with much luck,
as the locals. time after time. bonn
barded him and he never moved from
his tracks. his shin pads seeming to
have an attracting power which made
the ball describe all kinds OF curves in
order to strike them.
Sharpe Counts First.
Before the echo of Referee Will
liams whistle in the opening period
had subsidized Sharp had Gagged the
first marker for the locals. 1t was
very pretty work on his part. he sneek-

ception Of about a three inch hole in
the top corner and Sharp was fortu-

Locals Blow Up.
The second period was the one in
which the locals went to pieces long
enough for Hamilton to score several
goals. During the period an interest
ing fuss took place on the south side
of the rink between Parry and Sharp.
Williams instead Of separating the
players jumped Sharp. Houghton got
in mix up with the big center and
was given foul. Not many seconds
later however. Williams saw the real
status OF the affair and was able to
catch Parry in two fouls. A very
pretty trick play was worked on the
locals by Tebbetts and Parry. Teb-
belts carried the ball through the
Richmond defense and IN to Parry
who slammed it in in 1903. Parry's
next goal was a rather lucky long
drive which struck the legs or one
of the locals and glanced behind Lam
caster in 2:56.

The third period started out with
Quigley driving the ball into the local
draperies in 2:35. Quigley repeated
with a drive past Jones, scoring In

to be removed from the floor. How
ever it looked as though the change
would do no good as Quigley four
minutes later scored on a drive from
the center Of the floor. Then the tide
changed. Sharp scoring on Bulla's
