Canada Hockey
Team Defeated
By Wanderers

The Wanderers Hockey Club won a
fast and hard played game from the St.
Patrick's Hockey Club, of Toronto, at
the st. Nicholas Rink last night The
score was to /. All the scoring was
accomplished during the first half,
when the local team literally swept the
Canadians off their feet by their fast
pace and aggressiveness.
The ST. Patrick boys proved better
skaters, but their team work was wo-
fully lacking, and it was the individual
work of Fox and Sullivan that prevent
ed more scoring by the local team
Roach and Dufresnc were the indi-
vdual stars Tor the Wanderers. The
sensational all-around work of the lat
ter thrilled the spectators during the
first half. He carried the fight into

many rivals mad dash down the ice
He took mary long chances at the
Canadians net, only missing the cage
by few inches.
Dufresne was the first to score on a
long and swift shot from centre in 4 $50

Tailed the second goal, after skating
through the st. Patricks defence, while

No Title Tourney
At Indoor Tennis

The annual national indoor lawn ten
MS championship tournament for men,
which mas been held every year since
1900 on the board floor courts of the
Seventh Regiment Armory, Park Ave
nue. and Sixty sixth street, will in all
probability not be played this year.
This was practically decided upon at
conference held yesterday between
Julian S. Myrick, acting president OF
the United States National Lawn Ten
mis- Association, and King Smith, presl-
dent OF the Seventh Regiment Tennis
Club
The main obstacle to holding the
tournament, which was scheduled to be
gin on February II, according to Mr.:
Smiths views, is the fact that it will
be exceedingly difficult to get together
a sufficient number of ranking players
next month. SO many of the stars
have gone into the service, it was eX-
planned that the big tourney would be
robbed of much of its former attrac-
tiveness, and then, too, the present lack
