In J the first place, Lowery will be better a acquainted with the team: and the : academic environment. He will know the ground thoroughly. Then again, championship hockey teams do not materialize in a day, and the rough diamond of one year becomes the polished gem of the next. Beside the improvement inevit- able with age, Queén's also have two freshmen of senior caliber who have shown no mean ability in fast com- pany before ever coming within the precincts of Kingston. Coupled with the good news of these freshmen acquisitions 'is the word that John (Red) McKelvey, the famous rugby | star, will agiin be out with the Tri- Color, after a year's lay off.

Much objection was raised among the die hards and {rreconcilables last year "because of the drastic changes Lowery instituted. Instead of the old fashioned defence he in- stituted the Ottawa six-man defence Some of the hockey Cassan- dras whose ideas of good hockey were up-to-date in the days of the Bilver Seven, now history, said it was ruining the game and croaked about the spectacular aspect being destroyed. But when Queen's were runners- up for the championship with Var- sity, who had men like Carson in the line-up, the croakers modified their croak. Lowery had Justified his means. 80, this years, with Varsity weak. ened, and McGill and University of Montreal not likely much stronger, Queen's are confident that they will add one more championship to their rapidly accrescent collection of triumphs, and Queen's will take the place in the Intercollegiate 'hockey world that ghe has already taken in football. + Note: Mr. Cross is mistaken con- cerning Gibson, who graduated last year and is therefore lost to Queen's.
