Varsity Hockey Six Outskates, Outpasses Awkward Terrier Team to Win, 6 to 2

The varsity hockey team, sparked by center Bill Cleary with a goal and three assists, last night outskated and outpassed an awkward but struggling B.U. team to win, 6 to 2, at the Garden.

The Terriers, depending mainly on hustle to win, faltered after holding the Crimson to a 1 to 1 tie in the first period. The varsity clinched the victory in the second period with two goals and then added three insurance tallies in the final stanza.
