CRIMSON DEFEATED BY DRIVING McGILL SEXTET

Succumbing again to the persistent offensive drive of the scarlet clad skaters, the Varsity hockey team went down to defeat, 5-2, in the Montreal Forum on Friday, Dec. 23, at the hands of the McGill University sextet, in the single vacation encounter.

Robert Saltonstall, Jr. '33 and M. L. Pruyn '35 scored the two Crimson goals in the first and last periods respectively.

While the Jayvees are batting Belmont Hill School at 2.30 o'clock today in the Boston Garden, the Varsity will travel to meet Brae Burn in preparation for the tilt with Toronto in New York on Saturday. The Varsity game with Brae, Burn may be postponed if the weather is inclement. The Belmont Hill outfit which will face the Junior Varsity, was defeated in its opening game by the Harvard freshmen, 7-1, on Wednesday, Dec.21.
