As a result of one of the few passes attempted during the game Phillips received the puck from Adams and scored the lone goal for Harvard against Amherst in the Boston Arena last evening. Amherst failed to score. Practically the only interesting feature of the contest was the work of Kimball, the Amherst goaltender who made 41 stops of one kind or another. From the start to the finish shinny and not hockey was the rule. Probably a poorer exhibition could not have been possible; the shooting was abominable, passing practically entirely lacking, and a general weakness shown all around by the Harvard team.

Amherst was also in poor form. The team played a three-man defense all the time, and were it not for their goal the score would have been much larger. Many substitutes were sent in for the University, but they were not better than those who started, Claflin and Hopkins were not in the game at all, Cunning, ham and S. P. Clark taking their places, while Captain Willetts played only during the last few minutes. Seymour was the best of the Amherst forwards; he was frequently able to dash alone down the rink but did not succeed in scoring.

University Team Overtrained.

The Harvard team showed evidences of overtraining and as there are no games until that with the Massachusetts Agricultural College next week, the men will have ample opportunity to improve their condition.
