st. Paurs School OF Concord, n. H.
sent a spry little hockey seven TO the ST.
Nicholas Rink last night and romped
away with a victory over Yale by score
of4to1. The game was a sparkler from
bell TO bell, pupnctuated here and there
by way of contrast with a display of dell
sity. such as the goal which Gore, of the
Blue, shot by mistake into his own net'
giving the youngsters a point which they
did not need in order to earn victory.
The team from New Haven was out
played from nearly every angle. Perhaps
the presence Of "Hobey' Baker. the
Princeton star. as referee. inspired the
ST. Paul boys to deeds Of valor. "Hooey,
il will be remembered, got his start IN
athletics at the Concord seat of learning
and played hockey with considerable dis"
tinction while in school.
When the first period closed without
score for either side il looked as though
St Paurs boys might be robbed of the
fruits Of superior playing, for they Kept
the puck in Yale territory most of the
time and peppered the goal with SHOTS
which Swift turned aside seemingly more
by luck than skill
In the second period, however, st. Pau
came into its own. Z. W. Hhis, the
doughty left wing, deity caressed inc
nnc kand nursed il into the net three
times. giving the boys an ample iead De
fore Harmon of Yale, penetrated the sun
defence Of the seven from New lamp
shire.
Vale did not have the speed Of its oppo-
neuts. nor did il begin TO show the team
work and skillful passing. The st. PAU
forwards broke up nearly every com"iid-
ton before the goal was threatened. l"
the danger zone Ford and schreioel
proved TO be a veritable Gibraltar the net

(which filled the rink to loud applause by
his artful parrying Of shots. Nel'hei
seven showed a great deal Of polish, out
the bovs followed the disc more Closely
land time and again wound their way
through the opposing line for opportunl-
tics at clean shots which often went 10

mado many attempts TO cd!e the puck
from a long distance, but tlS shots were
Inaccurate.
tIus scored the first goal Of the game
after trihe more than two minutes OF
the second half had been played. he
took a pass from Tritch, and cleverly
xorking the sides of the rink, got in
pos;tion TO make a perfect shot into the
inet. This put the Blue on its mettie anu
! The n,av became faster. The New Haven
team almost Immediately carried the
muck back 10 ST. Paul's goal where the
alertness Of Ford and Schneider pre-
vented a tally The boys from concord
uere nothing daunted. They quickly
lined no and carried the disc down the Ice
and three minutes later. after the puck
had been passed out from behind hale
goal. Hills got an opening and shot II
home.
The game from this point began to get
roueher and the players were sent
sprawling over the ice in the heat OF con-
Nict St. Paul's proved as aggressive as
it's opponents, and eleven minutes alteT
the half opened the puck was chased out
from behind the Blues goal again ana
Gore shot it into the net by mistake
Two minutes later Harmon tailed Yale
srst count. but this was quickly as
counted by Hills. who retaliated with
another goal. Not penalty was imposed
durins the contest.
Between the halves Frank Sammins ana
Miss c. Duncan gave pretty exhibition

,svor on the part of the spectators
