On Saturday the University sextet journeyed to Buffalo and there administered an overwhelming defeat to the weak Nichols Club team by a 12-2 score. The contest was played on a very small rink and was marred by rough play on both sides. At no time were the New Yorkers a match for their smoother and faster opponents. The Crimson forward line took the disc up the ice time and again in a beautiful exhibition of coordination and team work. Both forward lines were used and proved equally efficient in driving the puck home. The work of the Crimson defense men was of a similar high grade, the Nichols forwards breaking through for a shot only occasionally.
Scoring honors were divided very evenly among the Harvard players, Giddens counting three and Holbrook, and Howard two goals apiece.
The summary follows: Score, Harvard 12, Nichols Club 2. First period--Harvard 6, Nichols Club 1. Second period--Harvard 3, Nichols Club 1. Third period--Harvard 3, Nichols Club 0. Goals, Giddens 3, Howard 2, Holbrook 2, Saltonstall, Tudor, Wetmore, Lakin, A. Bieglow, Gowans, Walsh. Referee, Thornton. Time three 20 minute periods.
