FAST HOCKEY
WON BY GODDARD
Seminary Boys Defeated Barre Team
Saturday Afternoon, to 2, by
Superior Team Work.

Never before has hockey received such
successful Inauguration as had the 1914
season which was started Saturday aft
ernoon at The Buzzell rink on Pearl
street when Goddard seminary won over
the representative of The Buzzell rink
! by the score of 3 to 2. The game was
close and very interesting and was thor
oughly enjoyed by the large crowd which
swarmed through the street until traffic
was nearly impossible Every building
within the range of sight of the playing
was transformed into grand stands until
the little scenario assumed the aspect of
a big league game.
The Goddard aggregation displayed
superior form over the Barre team, re-
ceiying the final verdict on the merits of
the playing. The Goddard sextet pre-
sented credtable aggregation,@ al
though minus the services of 'Lackey"
LaCasse, the clever little player, who
established Goddard on strong footing
in hockey circles throughout the state
during the past season. Witt and Cosby,
the only two players remaining from
last season, We're the most conspicuous
players on the red and white team, Has
kett, LaCasse and Moulton, new mem
bers, are valuable men who are sure to
form a very potential offense and de-
Tense attack. Goddard's play was char
acterized by unison and they played
with such cohesive attacks that the
Barre team was never favorite after
few minutes OF playing.
Individual playing marked The Buzz
zell teams work. Boyea was the in
dividual star of the Barre team, al
though Little lent considerable strength
in breaking up the whirlwind rushes of
the Goddard forwards The game had
been under way but a short time when
Witt hurled the puck past Even into
the net. The Goddard forwards went
into the game with greater vim and aft
er volley OF shots rained at Goaltend
er Little, Witt succeeded again in caging
his second goal.
About the middle of the first half
Boyea scored Barre's first goal with the
most spectacular play Of the afternoon

the ice, took the puck in the middle Of
the rink and with phenomenal burst of
speed aroused the spectators by a dart
down the side of the rink. He safely
eluded the defensive players in front Of
him and thin cut across the rink, sending
the puck past Goaltender Gilman into
the net. The play brought forth round
after round of applause.
The Barre team seemed to take new
life and charged the seminary territory.
After a volley of futile shots Wiley
saught the puck on rebound and
pushed it past Gilman. The goal
brought the game down to even figures.
Wiley's goal resulted after a general
mixup in front of the Goddard goal
With a few minutes left to play La
Case, brother of the former Goddard
player, Gagged goal on a long shot from
the side OF the rink. After this neither
team scored. During the last half of
