time. and his omnipresence was SO pro-

powerful system of attack of its own,
turned IFS attention TO chasing Baker.
with only partial success. however. >
The other great factor in Princetons
wholly unlooked-for victory was the ads
mirable play OF Winants. at goal. AL
through the game Harvard kept up q
more or less continuous Ere or the Tiger
goal. but it was IN particular in the lat.
ter half of the final period when Har-.
ward was playing desperately TO overcome.
Nassau that Winants's work showed in
its brightest colors.
Shot after shot whistled through the,
Princeton points and Winants was kept on
his toes warding of the fusillade. This.
was when Harvard had diagnosed Baker
pretty well. and had the Tiger rover. So
we'll bottled up thai il was only occasion-
ally that he was able 10 break away from
his guards for a spectacular run down the.
ice II was during this critical period that
Winants played so we'll, guarding the goal
with such success that he seemed 10 hav@
a mystic curtain drawn across the front
of the cage. beyond which the IIaryarcS
shots were unable TO go. Z
To be sure. Gardner. the Crimson goaS
keeper, played game that was not far
behind that OF Baker and Winants. but
h. had several lapses. which cost his team
several points on the wrong side Of the
tally sheet. Perhaps the inequality OF tho
light had something 10 do with Gardners
play. but il is certain that he was not up
10 form
Emmons and Kohn, who scored two Of
the Tigers three goals. got the rubber
past the Crimson captain OF what should
have been easy stops. Baker, who made
the Tigers other goal scored on an easy
shot too. 80 that, on the whole. Gardner
did not finish the evening any too cred

| on the other hand the Harvard goal
tender had many more chances than
! Winants. The Tigers had seventeen shots
in the first half. seven Of which were TO
Bakers credit. and in the second period
| they had twenty-four tries, OF which
/ Baker made nine
In the opening period the Crimson had
the same number OF chances 20 score.
| but in the closing session they had only
| fifteen In the main the Princeton shots
were made with more force behind them
and were better directed than those made
| by the Crimson.
| As contest the game was almost
| ideal, save for a couple OF cases of trip
ping in the second half, which affected
| both teams equally There was little
rough work OF any kind. Though the
| hockey was not UP TO scratch at all
times. there was always enough ginger
and dash in the play TO make il exciting
/ for even the most fastidious.
| Bakers sensational sprint down the ice,
with the whole Harvard seven in pursuit,
brought the crowd TO IFS feet time after
[ time And il was crowd the like Of

game By the book. Consequently, the offi-
| Gals had to be more than usually scrupu-

were plenty of crimson and orange and
black flags thrsshng in the air after

The game began with 4 snap and dash
which kept the puck in neutral territory
for fully a minute. Then Kuhn Got. a
rattling shot at the goal ami Gardner

a rush and. breaking into the Harvard
game. captured the puck and got shot
that SKINNED past Gardner's nip for the
first goal
That injected another charge of ginger
into the Harvard team, and In another
minute the Crimson had the rubber down
