YALE IS VICTOR
IN CLOSE TUSSLE
WITH COLUMBIA
Good Spurt by Morningside
Hockey Men and Blue
Hard Pressed.
SCORE, Z GOALS TO 5
Tie at End of Second Period,
With Ellis Stronger in
the Final.

A close game with an abundance of
rink last night between the Yale and
Columbia hockey teams-close and
loose. Yale won, goals to 5. after the
Blue and White had made a plucky
uphill fight and pressed the Ellis, with
their better team play hard. Yale
finished stronger than the Morning
side men, going into the third period
with five goals to Columbia's five. and
outplaying the latter decisively in the
final session.
Excellent goal keeping by Shelton
turned aside many a Yale shot in the
last period. Neither side played first
class hockey. Yale playing in spurts
and Columbia being better as individuals
than as team. For the most part the
stick work was faulty and with few
exceptions speed was below par. Carson
and Bulkley for Yale, and Rollins and
Anderson for Columbia were, the best
skaters. though Walker, golfer OF some
renown. did some fairish shooting. Car
son, with the stick and afoot, was the
most elusive player of the lot. He car
ried the disk around the Columbia cage
and hooked it in for the prettiest goal
OF the night.
Yale drove down to the Columbia
citadel In the first period, and Shiras
slipped a goal in no less than two min
utes Van Ingen tailed after fast
run and Carson followed with his swift
detour of the cage. The Blue had three
goals and Columbia none when the
Blue and White hit rafting pace.
Four goals In succession were made
by Columbia, two in the second period.
Walker scored two with good shooting
past a mediocre goalkeeper. One was
a long lift, which took tangent into the
net from the goalkeeper's arm. Rivet
made one after a rush by Walker the
length of the rink. Griscom, with a
short shot, and Carson, from a scrim-
mage, sent Yale ahead, but before the
period ended Anderson. who moved with
a good deal of dash, drove difficult
diagonal shot into the Yale net, and the
score was each
In the last period the Ellis rained eight
shots at the enemy goaI TO Columbia's
one. The second Yale goal keeper was
better than the first. but Shelton for
Columbia was a real peach. Carson
whizzed one by him after rush from
the other end and lifted the pucl;
through Ine lOp VI LIlC mt. -
stalwart Eli shot one with such force
that it whanged off the goal sentry's
stick into the net behind him.
Both showed lack of practice. A sup
nly of new sticks the Ellis had ordered
didn't come, and they had to do the
best they could with old ones. The line
