144 GOOD YALE HOCKEY. Vacation Trip Shows the Team to be a Strong One, ~The five practice games arranged for the Yale Hockey Team by Captain Shiras Campbell, 1900, resulted very satisfactorily, only one being lost and that he first one, to the Crescent Ath- letic Club, Brooklyn, whose members, under the name of the Brooklyn Skating Club, won the championship last year. The four Pittsburg games with the strongest clubs in the city were won by remarkably fast play with the small margin of one point in each game. The series showed plainly that Yale has an unusually fast hockey team this season, . well balanced and at times capable of brilliant play. In the intercollegiate contests, which began last Tuesday night, Yale should make a good show- ing. These men were taken on the trip: Forwards, S. Campbell, 1900 (Captain) ; G. C. Walworth, 1900; E. S. Bronson, i900; F. C. Inman, 1902S., and J. B. Buckwalter, 1902 L.S.; cover points, J. P. . Brock, 1900, and A. C, -Coxe,.Jn, i901; points, T. Sturgis, Jr., 1903, and E. A. Strong, 1900 S.; and goal, R Smith. PG. A brief review of each game is printed below. Crescent A.C. 7; Yale lL. The game with the Crescent Athletic Club, Monday night, January 1, at the Clermont Avenue Rink, Brooklyn, was the first of the vacation season games for the Yale Hockey team, and drew an audience of 1500 or more. Yale played a strong game but was not able to do better than 1 point to 7. Individually and collectively the Crescents are prob- able the strongest hockey team in the East, Dobby, Wall and Drakeley being three of the forwards. Inman made the only score for Yale.

The Yale Hockey team reached Pitts- burg on Wednesday, January 3, and in the evening met the Bankers’ Athletic Club at the Duquesne Ice Palace before an audience of nearly 3,000. At the end of two 15-minute halves the score stood 1 to I and it required 10 mintites more of play to give Yale the deciding goal, which was shot by Inman. In the first part of the game the Bankers had rather the better of the match, chiefly through poor team play on Yale’s part, but in the last seven minutes, those who were present agree that never had such rapid play been seen in the rink. Inman in particular did remarkable work. The line-up and summary: YALE. PosITION. BanKERs’ A. C.

Yale’s second game of the Pittsburg series was with the Western University of Pennsylvania in the Duquesne Gar- den Thursday night, and as the Yale men had, in the first game, become accts- tomed to the ice, they played in superior form. There was a great improvement in team work, too, every member work- with his neighbor at the sacrifice of indi- vidual brilliancy. Captain Campbell and Bronson, working together, made Yale’s only score. In the second half, although the play was exceedingly fast and fierce, Yale prevented her opponents from scoring, but could herself not add a single point. Over 4500 people saw the game.

At the end of the first half Duquesne had made two goals and Yale none, and it looked like an easy victory, but in the second half Yale began like a whirlwind and carried their opponents off their feet with fast and aggressive play. Inman again distinguished himself by splendid driving, and with Campbell, was respon- sible for the winning goals. More than 3,000 people were present. The line-up and summary: © YALE. PoSITION.

By defeating the Pittsburg Athletic Club’s strong team, Saturday night, the Yale men made the series four straight victories. Every point of the match was fiercely contested for and rough play was indulged in on both sides, The score was tied at the end of the first half—1 to 1, and again at the end of the second half—3 to 3. In the extra 10 minutes agreed on to reach a winning score, the superior physical condition of Yale’s men backed by fine individual work by Walworth, Inman and Bronson gave her two goals to Pittsburg’s one and won the game.

Certain it is, how- ever, that we are already beginning to look forward to the time when Harvard and Yale will no longer cater to out- siders, and when admission to the annual game will be open only for gradu- ates and undergraduates of these uni- versities. We may then have an ath- letic association comprising all teams, membership in which will be obtained upon payment.of a nominal fee, less than the amount now demanded to se- cure season tickets and entrance to the big games. The days of persuasive managers will then be past, and by join- ing one great association the under- graduate will support the teams and have the privilege of attending all their games. Not the least important feature of such a system will be the field that it will offer for a greater University spirit, and a keener and more vigorous spirit of rivalry, engendered by intimate relation- ship between Harvard and Yale men.

Pa, oo a Ae THE MUSICAL CLUBS, A Wery Success{ul Christmas Trip— Good Singing and Good Houses, The thirty-fourth annual Christmas trip of the University Glee and Banjo Clubs, which ended with the concert in the Academy of Music in Brooklyn, last Saturday evening, proved to be one of the most successful the Clubs have ever undertaken. Good houses faced the musicians at every performance and the general opinion is that the quality of the singing has rarely been excelled. The soloists were: R. H. Schneeloch, M.S. ; G. W. Simmons, 1900; R. A. McGee, 1000'S. and :f. B: Clarke. Jr.; 1000. At every performance the Mandolin Club drew a great deal of applause for its well-played selections, particularly the “Venetian Love Song,” which they were often obliged to repeat several times. The trip of 3,300 miles was consider- ably shorter than the one taken Christ- mas a year ago, but the receipts were larger, more than 10,000 people attend- ing the 13 concerts. The largest houses were in Chicago and St. Louis. The Clubs were royally entertained everywhere. Besides the luncheons, teas and dances given to the men, by the Yale graduates and their families, many undergraduates of Yale in the cities visited, gave luncheons and dinners to friends on the Clubs, adding much to. the. pleasure: of the trip. The men found their two special Wagner cars “Riva’ and “Iroquois,” with the baggage car, ready for them at Spring- field, Mass., Wednesday, December 20. Leaving there at 8.45 that evening, they reached Buffalo on the*N. Y. C. & H. R. R. at nine the next morning, Dec. 21. At one o'clock, Mr. George Urban gave a stag luncheon at the Buffalo Club and from there the men went to Mrs. Harry Hamlin’s tea at her resi- dence on Delaware avenue. The con- cert given in Concert Hall was attended by an enthusiastic audience of about 600 people. After the concert the alumni gave a smoker at the University Club. Leaving Buffalo at 8.05 Friday morn- ing, December 22, the cars were taken to Rochester, where Mrs. W. H.
