some brilliant team play by the Hope forwards. Classical was next in line and we found little trouble in beating them .5-0, thus completing the first round of the schedule. Hope again showed her superiority over English by administering a 10-0 defeat at York's Pond. VVe then encountered a little slump and allowed Cranston to take us into an over- time period before we could defeat them 3-2 at No Bottom Pond. Tech came next for the big game of the season to decide whether Hope should win the pennant or tie up with Tech in the standing. The game was played at Roger William's Park and it took two five-minute over-time periods to decide the outcome of the struggle and Brown shot the winning goal after one of the fastest games ever seen in the Interscholastic League. In the next game Classical was disposed of with little trouble, 5-2, by great team work which has characterized our play throughout the season. The Wanderers were next in line and they were beaten 5-3 at York's Pond. On January 27th Hope journeyed to Worcester and met the strong Worcester Academy team and decisively defeated them 9-1 in a fast and exciting game at Gaskell Rink. The following Saturday Hope went to Newport and defeated the fast St. George School seven 4-1, thus winning the Rhode Island championship. Our next game was scheduled with Phillips Andover at Andover but was cancelled by Andover owing to date conflictions. Our next and last game was with the fast Melrose High septette at the Boston Arena in which game we tasted our first defeat of-the season. The superior staying powers of the Melrose team and the spacious ice surface of the Arena was too much for our boys and we succumbed 9-1. Three of the team earned the distinction of being picked for the Journal All-Star Team. They are, Ballou, cover-pointg F. Dandeno, left wingg and C. Dandeno, centre. Fred Dandeno was elected to captain the team for next season. The line-up was as follows 5 Goal . . Lestrade, Lippitt Point . . . Sarle, Schmid Cover point . Ballou Left wing . F.

Under the leadership of the above mentioned ohicers, the Hope Street High School Debating Society has enjoyed a very successful year. The fortnightly meetings have been Well attended throughout the winter and the enthusiasm of the individual members has helped to make the organization a flourishing one. Q The first debate was on February second With English High School in our hall and the question Was, Resolved: that Women should have equal suffrage with men. Hope maintained the affirmative and although We lost the decision, We had the satisfaction of realizing that a large majority of the audience were not in sympathy with the determina- tion of the judges. However, Hope put up a splendid light and each speaker delivered his arguments in a brilliant and eloquent manner. Hope has one more debate which is against Pawtucket High School. Hope has carried out its usual spirit of honest playing and has strengthened the debating society by supporting it and its team which filled the duties of a team admirably.
