EIGHT VETERAN SKATERS TO REPORT FOR HOCKEY OPENING

With the start next Monday of conditioning work, the University Hockey season will get off to its unofficial start. The squad will not get on the Arena ice until a week later, according to an announcement made by Howard Slade '27, manager of the team.

Coach E. L. Bigelow '27, is fortunate in having the services of eight letter men from last year's championship sextet. Captain W. P. Ellison '27, E. C. Clark '27, J. S. Chase '28, C. D. Coady '27, C. S. Gross '27, Nathaniel Hamlin '27, R. S. Scott '27, and Isadore Zarakov '27, are the "H" wearers of former years who will meet Coach Bigelow on the opening day of practice. Besides these veterans, last year's undefeated Freshman team will supply its quota of stars, of whom H. G. Crosby, '29, E. T. Putnam '29, and John Tudor '29 are the most brilliant.

With several Canadian universities applying for dates on the schedule, it is probable that the list of games will be somewhat different from that of past years. Two unimportant engagements will be played off before the Christmas holidays, and it is likely that a game will be played in New York during Christmas week.
