SEXTET DOWNS TIGER IN FINAL CONTEST

Beals, Austin, Chase, Hodder in Last Game of Harvard Hockey Star--Scull Brilliant for Princeton

NO WRITER ATTRIBUTED

When Austin took a pass from Chase in the final two minutes of the hockey game with Princeton; and drove the puck past Pepper to the corner of the Tiger net, he brought the Harvard sextet out on the long end of a 5 to 4 count, and clinched the tenth victory for a Crimson team in competition Saturday. This was Austin's third score of the evening. Playing hes last game of hockey for the Crimson, Austin, gave one of the most brilliant exhibitions of his career.

The game was hard fought all the way, with Harvard behind until late in the third period. Princeton had earned a 2 to 1 lead as the first session ended. Austin tied things up after six minutes of play in the second period, but Princeton again took the lead with two goals by Scull. Harvard shortened the gap when a long shot from Austin's stick glanced off Wilkinson, and came to rest in the Tiger cage for the third Crimson score of the evening.

Coming in to the final period, Harvard's superiority in reserve material began to tell the tale, when the wearying Princeton skaters failed to hold Austin on his brilliant dashes down the ice. Penalties also had much to do with the Tiger's defeat, three of the Crimson scores coming with Princeton skaters in the penalty box.

Captain Beals, Austin, Chase, and Hodder, who were playing their last game of Harvard hockey, were the most effective men on the ice for the Crimson, while Captain Stout and Davis, who also graduate in June, took a leading part in Princeton's remarkable stand. Scull was the outstanding Tiger offensive star. Harvard's victory carried with it second place in the H-Y-P ice series.

The summary.

Score, Harvard 5, Princeton 4. Goals, Austin 3, Chase, Wilkinson, Scull 3, Davis. Penalties, Hamlen, Davis, Scull, Taylor. Referees, Wiggett, Stewart. Time, three 20-minute periods.
