TRINITY I ' Ol.l.EC.E SCMIOOI. RECORD. 25 tt ' ii mituiU ' s, School 2 ; ' N ' arsily . At tins point Siftoii broke his skaif, and as he could not go on playinff, it was decided that Cook should go of! in order to make things even. Then rather a strange thing happened. Moody and Bradfield had been put off the ice for fighting, and at the same time Cochran and Oowther were penalised. This left three of the .School men on the ice, counting the goal keeper. These two played defence, and the whole ' Varsity team came down the ice in a line and tried in vain to score. One of the two would get the ptick and send it back to the other end and then they would wait for the ' ' arsity team to come down again. They had to do this three times, and the fourth time Matthews managed to score. T. C. S. 2. ' Varsity 4. Then the puck was taken down to the ' Varsity goal and, after several shots, Stratton scored ; 3-4. Within thirty seconds Brad- field made the score even by a very neat rush down the boards. It was now easily seen that the School was in a much better shape than the University team, and until the end they had much the best of it, al- though they did not score. Catto was then penalised for slashing, and in the same mmute Cochran shot and missed. There were now only two minutes of play left, and during that time it was all the ' Varsity team could do owing to their lack of condition to prevent the School from scoring. The final score showed the result to be a tie. T. C. S. Line-up : — Goal, Saunders ; Point, Macdonald ; Cover, Crowther ; Rover, Cochran ; Centre, Bradfield ; R. wing, Stratton ; L. wing, Cook.

Played on the Home Rink on Thursday March 6th. This was the best and most exciting game of the season. Owing to a mishap some- where ' Varsity only brought down si. men, which necessitated Cook ' s not playing and our having no Rover, an arrangement to which we were not at all used. Play started at ten minutes i)ast three, after we had won the toss, and Crowther set things going by rushing down the ice with the puck.

' I ' he game w,is played in the Arena rink at ' I ' oronto on Saturtlay March ist, and i l ly started at 11 o ' clock. The Sciiool had won the toss. For the fust quarter of an hour there was no scoring, though tiie play was mostly round the School goal. There were a great many pen- alties all through the game, for the referee was very strict. Almost as soon as the game started Catto was put off for giving Bradlield the hoards. While the puck was at the T. C. S. end of the ice Saunders put u[) a record game and made some almost impossible stops. Strat- ton and Cochran made a very good combination rush but they failed to score, and Lipton was penalised for cross-checking. It was after this that the first goal was scored by Crowther. Bradfuld atul .Stratton were both off, when Crowther took the puck and went straight through the A ' arsity team and scored. After the puck was faced off Catto got away and would have scored if he had not been frustrated by Saunders ' As Cook was then penalised for tripping the ' Varsitv team pressed the School hard and made the score one all.

There were now only about live minutes left to play and the excitement was rising. The play was ki-pt in the middle of the ice. and there were some very nice exhibitions of stick-handling, Cochrnn being especially l)rilliant. Strat- ton finally scored just as the whistle blew, making the half-time score 2 all.

26 TRINITY COLLEGE SCHOOL RECORD before ' Varsity were quite sure where it had gone. It was soon taken back to the T. C. S goal, however, and Saunders was kept jumping from one side to the other. The School had made the most of the op- portunity afforded by Sifton ' s being penalised to try and score, but all efforts failed. After a few more seconds of play round the ' Varsity goal, Milne took the puck down as far as the School defence where Crowther promptly appropriated it, and in taking it up the ice again collided with Matthews. The latter being much the lighter of the two made a semicircle into the boards, where he remained for the space of three minutes. The play was now kept in the centre of the ice until Webster was penalised, and then Bradfield scored the first goal. The puck had scarcely been faced off again when Milne got penalised for two minutes, and while he was off Webster came down the ice and scored. — One all. — -The preceeding ihree minutes of play were then re- peated, but it was Sifton who was penalised, and Catto who scored. School I ; ' Varsity 2. Then amidst tremendous cheering from the on- lookers, Stratton went down the ice and evened up the score. Brad- field and Cotton then made alternate rushes, and when Catto had got the puck in front of the .School goal, Saunders made a series of brilliant sto[)S, a feat which caused a great deal of cheering amongst the School supporters, who had turned out in full force for the occasion. For the next few minutes the play was centred round the visitors ' goal, and Cochran had some very hard luck, hitting the posts twice. ' Varsity were now disabled owing to Catto ' s having been put off, but as soon as he came on again they pressed hard, and after several attempts Catto scored, giving them 3 to the School ' s 2. Crowther thei passed to Strat- ton who shot but failed to score, A return rush was made by Mihie, who was successful in evading Saunders and netted the puck, making the score, 4 2 in their favour, and a moment later the whistle blew for half-time. The second hall was much more exciting, and when the ti-ams came onto the ice they were given an ovation by the School band. Play was started by Matthews being penalised for loafing, and the School did their best to avail themselves of the chance, but failed to score. Sifton and Milne then made the only combination rush that ' Varsity made (luring the whole game. But the only result was tint Cochran got the
