SUMMARY OF THIS SEASON'S WORK AT BOTH UNIVERSITIES.

At the beginning of the season the prospects for this year's hockey team were indeed bright. When the candidates came out, however, a dark cloud was visible on the horizon, for two of the most promising men were on probation and unable to represent the University in athletics. The absence of these two players, forwards, has been very noticeable all winter for there has been no one who could be regularly depended upon to take the puck down the rink as either of these two could be. There remained Huntington, Duncan and Blackall, who won the hockey insignia last year, Gardner, captain of his Freshman team two years ago, Pierce, Palmer, Houston and Smart, substitutes a year ago, and Sortwell, Willetts and Wingate of last year's Freshman team, to draw from. With such an array, it seemed probable that a first class team should be developed in spite of the two ineligibles.

After a few weeks of practice, in which the men who had been playing football took but a minor part, the first scheduled game was played against Technology. In a very ragged exhibition only eleven can play on a team, there is an opportunity for every man who comes out, since practically every position is open. Beginning next Monday, all candidates are expected to take some form of exercise, especially aiming to develop the wind. Regular practice will not begin, however, until the snow is off the ground, and Soldiers Field is in good condition. All men out for the team are expected to be regular and careful in their diet, although the regular training table will not start until just before the intercollegiate games.

Captain Byng outlined the method of playing soccer, and emphasized the fact that speedy men are wanted for the forward positions.

About forty were present at the meeting, including Captain H. G. Byng sC., managers C. E. Hansen '12, C. Fry '13, F. H. Storms '14, and the following candidates:
