Varsity Had the The score of 2-1 just about indi- cates the difference of the two teams on the play last night. Varsity un- doubfedly had the edge and they had more finish to their play. The individual men were not being as much used up as were the Queen's men and the locals tired down to- wards the close of the contest while Varsity were able'fo remain cool and composed and defend themselves in an awkward position. They needed to be, for. Queen's certainly gave them a merry five minutes near the close of the contest and the fans thought for sure that the Tricolor were due for a win over-the Toronto team. Only the worst kind of coupled with the best kind of de- fence work by Varsity stopped them from tying the score in the last few minntes. The locals never gave up trying and they made a plucky bid for the verdict but it was all in vain and when the final gong rang, the Blue and White 'were sitting pretty. The hockey was fast afte the first goal was scored and the fans were delighted with the work of both teams. Varsity evidently started out with the idea that they had some- thing soft. They did not over-exert themselves anys while Queen's did not seem to be able to get working. Varsity did not have that smooth finish at the start but after their first goal, they settled away while Queen's did not enter heart and soul into the contest until they had flip- ped the puck by Sullivan. A goal ifi a game of hockey is a wonderful thing to start action. Queen's need- ed 4 bracer to get their "sea legs" and once they got started, the fans settled Into the spirit of the contest and came to Iife as well. It was a mighty dead crowd for the 'first few minutes but they made themselves heard after the players themselves had started something. i Joe Smith handled the bell and he certainly did it efficiently.' He was on every play, checked up well on the offside plays and gave the penal- ties where they were neéded. It was one of the best exhibitions of re- fereeing seen here this winter, sin, First Period. The play was slow at the start and the honors were about evenly divid- ed in the matter of progréss to- wards the respective goals and the back-checking on both sides was very glose thus preventing any sen- sational breaks. Varsity did not have possession of the puck as much as Queen's for a while and the Tri- color made strong efforts to break through but it was without avail. Varsity checked them to a walk until [Bwart Lindsay crashed h but did not count. Brown followed him through and put a nica shot at Sul- livan but the puck was turned aside. The play so far had been all individ- ual as far as Quden's were concerned but Roy Reynolds and Boucher start- ed in to do a little work on their own hook and they wotked a pretty combination right through but cher was offside when he took Reynolds' pass in front of the net. Ewart Lindsay went through for t looked to be a eure goal and the erowd was getting ready for a mighty cheer but the goal did not materialize. Kirkpatrick took the puck, and working his way down the side of the rink, scored the first count of the game, Queen's. do arsity were lotth the bulk of the wark they were content to do all the checking that necessary, Louis Hudson 'un- corked a spiral through the centre and let go with a shot at Quinn but wormed hi§ way through and passed out to the centre but there was no- body home. 'Lindsay cafried the puck through to Sullivan but was turned away and Reynolds took the 'puck at his defence and waded through the whole Blue and Sullivan was on the job. J excitement of the evening was just nolds rushed and passed out ing front of the net expecting somebody to be there for the pass but there wasn't, He went through agiin and missed, but Lindsay, picking up thé puck at centre ice, let it fly and it went through the Toronto goal-tend- ers pads for an easy goal. The crowd livened up and the players went at it with more pep than ever and the beginning to break, Varsity settled in for a session of harder work and they tried to forge ahead before the first twenty migutes was over but it was useless and the period ended with Varsity 1, Queen's 1. Second Perdod. : Queen's forced the play at the out- set of the second period and rushes by Reynolds and Boucher were good. The Varsity attack was not working as well as they had expected and the visitors could not take the chances they perhaps hoped they could. Lind- |' say, by a very pretty bit.of stick- handling, went through the whole Varsity team and only dy an ace did he miss his goal. This was about enough for Var- sity and they proceeded to take over the reins of control and for the next few minutes the play was in their possession. Louis Hudson did some great stick work and led the Queen's checkers a merry chase but he could not always get the puck on the net but when his shots did get on, he found Quinn on the alert for them. Richards and Plaxton broke away on a nice combimation play and nearly netted a ringer but the Queen's goal was missed by a fraction. Ponter carried the disc from his own posi- tion to the Queen's blue line but shot a little wide of the net. The play was lively and was going from one end of the rink to the other in rapid- fire order, Queen's tame close but could not seem to do the real thing. The "T™ got more system into their play and worked a pretty triple combination but Quinn was simply great and would not Tet them pass. Brown carried the play to Varsity"s corner where the play remained for three or four minutes. He stayed right there and worked hard for the puck. Hudson took it away and on a dandy rush, waltzed through tor the sec- ond Varsity goal. Varsity 2, Queen's 1. Quinn was given a busy session but he handled hi 1t well, The "T" threatened to tome through again and they tried harder than ever to 'get a safe lead. Taylor nearly accomplished getting a third goal uit the Kingston goale turned him back. Plaxton and Kirkpatrick combined and Hudeon followed in, his shot being saved by tne watchful Quinn, Queen's suffered some hard luck and the puck struck the net post. and bounded straight out in- stead of Into the net. Try as they might, neither team could put any- thing over before the second period closed, a Third Period. The last period belonged to Queen's and they made the best use of it they knew how, They seemed to be playing Jbetter hockey than in the first two periods and broke re- peatedly. Varsity settled into a checking game again, however, and stopped. dangerous attacks by Pel- ton, Reynolds and Boucher. They checked closely and threw the locals off the combination that they had started. What breaks there were, Varsity were getting them but Quéen's worked hard and did their best to get that other goal they need- ed to tie the count. Voss missed a beautiful chance to score when he missed Roy's pass in front of the Varsity net, the puck jumping a little on him. y As time went on, the Queen's at- tacks became stronger, and, with about twelve minutes to go, the Tri- color were working their heads off. They held Varsity to the blue line were in no envious position . just 'then.

Varsity began to come back to form again and checked hard. With four minutes to go, they again took the offedsive. Hudson uncorked a pretty rush but Pelton saved when he blocked the Blue and White star, The excitement was high in the last couple of minutes and the crowd were doing their best to edge the locals on for a goal but the gong sounded the end of the game before this could be accomplished, The teams were: : Varsity---Goal, Sullivan; defence, Taylor, Porter; centre, Plaxton; wings, Hudson, Kirkpatrick; subs., Cloutier, Richards.

Referee~--Joe Smith, Kingston, h~ TO=-NIGHT | It it's a little hardship to get to the Arena tonight for the intermedi- ate Intercollegiate game between R. M. C. and Queen's, go anyway, for it will be well worth while. The talk that has been going on during the past week about this meeting to- night between R.M.C. and Queen's has created no end of interest in this contest and many words would not be needed to say why this game will be such an attraction. Four of the R.M.C. team are mem- bers of the Kingstoh intermediates and the boys can set a merry pace while the other four men in the game will not be far behind them and that's what Queen's has to stack up against. The Tricolor expect to win and have made no bomes about it but the Cadets are golng to have something to say about it if they can. Rumor has been that the Queen's team would be woefully weak tonight and Queen's have been giving that impression but it is learned that the Queen's represénta. tives will not be as weak as it was first supposed they would be and to- night they will be on deck to avenge the defeat of the juniors on Wed« nesday last when the Cadets away with a 5-1 verdiot. 'Tonight's game. will be tended and fans, who needed reminder of this entertainment, should point to be on deck.
