ST. PAUL'S BLANKS '24 SEPTET BY 4-0 SCORE

The Freshman hockey team met a vastly superior seven at St. Paul's, Concord, N. H., on Saturday; although the yearlings played the best type of hockey they have shown this year, the school-boys netted four goals. Presenting an absolutely impenetrable defense, the St. Paul's boys launched the same kind of attack that has led them to such a long series of victories this year, with 7 goals scored against the Yale University team early in the season as the brightest feather in their cap. Captain Davis at right center was the best player on the ice with 3 goals to his credit, while Banes at point put up a remarkably powerful and vigorous defense game. St. Paul's scoring came entirely in the first two periods in each of which it pushed across two tallies; in the final period the play of the yearlings, which had been strong and well-knit throughout, reached its climax with the result that the Concord team was held scoreless by excellent defense and checking work.

Fighting hard from the time they became accustomed to the extremely hard and fast ice until the final whistle blew, 1924 was nevertheless unable to score, and in fact seldom seriously threatened the St. Paul's goal, so good was the defense put up by Banes and his side-partner Sargent.

Cabot Played Excellent Game

Coach Curtis picked Nelson Cabot to fill the doubtful place in the forward line and was well rewarded for his choice, for the former Milton star was the outstanding man in the Crimson forward line. Captain Crosby put up his usual sterling game on defense and it was his speedy dashes that proved the best weapon of attack the yearlings had.

With rather a narrow rink on which to play, close scrimmaging near the goals, especially that of the Freshmen, was a marked feature; it was from scrambles such as these that the schoolboys scored three of their four scores, succeeding only once in actually penetrating the Crimson defense for a clean goal.
