Both the Freshman hockey team and University Seconds were successful in their initial games of the season at Charlesbank rink yesterday afternoon, the Freshmen beating Arlington High School by a score of 2 to 0, and the University Seconds beating Belmont Hill School by a score of 3 to 2.
In the first period of the Freshman game, Harvard forced the scrimmage continually and played a fast game in spite of the ice, which was in poor condition. T. R. Manning played a stellar game at goal for Arlington, stopping a shot by W. B. Wood '32, at the crucial moment. Later, however, W. H. Crosby '32 landed a shot on a pass from Wood.
The second period was slow, with no outstanding plays except for the sensational save of C. D. Draper '32, who came out of his position at goal guard to stop a shot by P. N. Clark.
Play grew faster in the third period when Wood scored for Harvard. C. C. Cunningham '32 carried the puck from behind his own net to within a few feet of the opposing team's, but a fast play by Manning caused Cunningham to go in the net instead of the puck. Gilmor, Frothingham Score for Seconds.
In the first period of the University Second's game, Robert Gilmor '31 scored a goal on a pass from Channing Frothingham '31 while J. G. Frothingham '31, scored another later. The playing was fast and Harvard was con- stantly on the offensive.
In the second period the game became sluggish, and neither team made any outstanding plays.
The players seemed to receive new vigor in the third period, for S. A. Pond and A. B. Bacon each scored a goal for Arlington. The score still stood 2 to 2 with only three minutes to play, when J. P. Davis '30, took the puck in the middle of the rink and carried it through the whole opposing team for a winning goal.
