THE DURHAM CHRONICLE Durham's box lacrosse team stepped off pn the right foot Tuesday night by winning their first home game 12-9. It was at the Expense of the Owen Sound team and was a fast, close- fought battle from start to finish. The Owen Sound team are a husky bunch. who are fast. know their lacrosse and ought to give any intermediate team a good argument. In Tuesday’s game the local boys seemed a little more ac- curate in their passes and more fin- ished in their play around the nets. Ern. McDonald in particular, being out- standing in this regard. He accounted for five of the locals’ twelve goals and got an assist on another. Becker in goal for the locals was another stand- out, his work in the nets being a big factor in the score. Time after time, with an Owen Sound forward right in on him, he either came out and checked them or turned aside the shot. He had to ave no excuse for the ones that got past him. They would have beaten any goalie. Win from Norther-net‘s in Fat Exhibi- tion Tiltâ€"Friday’s Game 8-8 Tie. The game got under way soon after eight-thirty and Owen Sound opened up with a rush which stopped at the local defense. Durham countered with a drive that reached the Owen Sound nets, but was turned aside into the cor- ner where McDonald got the ball, and after eluding a couple of checks un- corked one of his backhand drives that McKibbon in the nets never saw. Two minutes later Hardin. left wing man for the visitors evened the score with a side shot that beat Becker cleanly. Seven r’ninutes of up and down play elapsed before Rowe, securing the ball at the local defense, galloped the length of the floor and passed to McDonald. who wheeled and planted another be- hind McKibbon. In the next five min- utes Snider. alternating with Dean as rover. counted twice for the locals, once on a lone effort and the second on a pass from Snell. Five minutes lat- er McDonald got his third goal, which proved the last of the period which ended 5-1 for Durham. Durham Wins 12-9 In Exhibition Game The second period was mostly Owen Sound's. Durham got four penalties during this session. one of them a ma- jor, and with this advantage the North- erners turned on the pressure and scored three goals to the locals’ one. Twice during the period there were two Durham men in the penalty box, but the best the visitors could get was one goal with a two-man advantage. McDonald got the locals' tally a min- ute after the period opened and Edgar. Young (on a pass from Lee) and Flint scored for the visitors. The third was a big period for both teams. Hardin opened the scoring when he got Owen Sound’s fifth after two minutes of play. A McDonald to Mur- dock play added another to Durham's total two minutes later and a minute after that McDonald got his fifth for the evening and the eighth for the team. Murdock and Dean, and then Dean and Rowe added a couple more to the locals‘ tally and then McGregor came through with the sixth for the visitors. With a four-goal lead the lo- cals seemed to ease up a_ little and Lee promptly added another for Owen Sound. Murdock came back with an- other for Durham but Owen Sound was not giving up by any means and Jones beat Becker with a nice shot from the defense. Norm. Becker and Lee had a little set-to along the boards with Lee on the losing end and the referee chased the two of them. While Lee was undergoing repairs, C. Becker, the local goalie came up to offer advice and promptly got two minutes also for of- fering to trim the Owen Sound man- ager. This left the local nets unguarded but Ken Wilson took on the job and acquitted himself well, only one get- ting by him, Lovell scoring. Dean. the Vlocal rover ended the scoring. when he notched the locals twelfth goal on a mass from Murdock. It was a good game all through and deserved a much better crowd than was on hand.

Owen Sound Bâ€"Dnrham 8 The locals played in Owen Sound last Friday night and held the home team to an 8-8 tie. According to the Sun- Times report it was a fast game, even- ly fought but with Owen Sound lead- against them the locals took full ad- vantage of a five minute penalty to an Owen Sound player and ran in four goals to even the score before he got back on the floor. ting until the last period.

Snell, ss. Following is the box score for Tues- day’s game. As will be seen both teams had several fielding errors and both got the same number of “walks,” but the Students were the best with the bat and got their hits when hits meant runs. Becker, c1.
