direct result Of the def. Cony had no
intention of claiming State honors,
due to the informal manner in which
the hockey schedules were run off this
season, but at the same time did not
want the Canton challenge to go un-
answered.

better one than the Cantonians as far
as real performances are concerned

teams to hold them even were Water
Vile. which really has the goods, and
Portland, which really hasn't. Port

meath a heavy score and the condition
of the ice prevented a return game
with the Elm City. Cony beat the
Bates Freshmen at Lewiston, while
Canton broke even and no overtime
period was played to settle the dead
lock.
The Cony outfit is a fast club ode
