A little over q minute elapsed, however, when Williams faked q drive and Blount came out of his cage. Sunny Boy" Pierce took a pass and ca ased the goal that tied the score. After this, the arguments started with three straight fouls Icing called on Jean. Through these, Hartford lost a goal and the game.
 Williams and Pierce were mag uificent on the ofienSe for New Britain while Griiliths and Dohcrty teamed up like two brilliant stars on the defense. IIoff stood his ground like q veteran and kicked off every drive that Jean or the Hartford team sent at him. Every goal that Hartford got last night was earned by the hardest kind of play.
