Two goals in an overtime period spelled defeat last night for the Harvard hockey team when a hitherto un-hailed Boston Athletic Association sextet swept to a 6 to 4 victory in the Boston Arena. Lawless and Hardy rode on the crest of the wave that Channing Hilliard, brilliant B. A. A. wingman, set into motion when he made two unassisted goals in as many minutes early in the third period. The startling upset of the Crimson puckmen was wholly unexpected because of the comparatively easy 5 to 1 victory they achieved in a contest on January 16.

Harvard went into a 3 to 1 lead in the first period after E. T. Putnam '30 had paved the way by a score on a rebound from John Tudor '29 in the first three minutes of play. C. B. Lakin '30 followed Putnam's lead with an unassisted goal two minutes later but the Crimson advantage was partly wiped out when Hardy, opposing defenseman, took a difficult pass from his teammate, Bavier, and beat H. H. Newell '29, University goalie. Tudor took a rebound from S. M. Batchelder '31 in the last minute of the period and passed Fogarty, the B. A. A. cageman.

With a 3 to 2 score against them the B. A. A. forwards stormed the Harvard cage and Hilliard slipped an easy shot between Newell's legs a minute after the opening whistle. He followed it less than a minute later with a hard drive which resulted from a brilliant, unassisted dash down the ice. Harvard's fighting pitch was aroused by the B. A. A. lead of 4 to 3 and its sallies toward the B. A. A. goals, usually led by Lakin, were determined. A beautiful shot by F. R. G. Giddens '30 evened the count.

Hardy and Nelson combined to give their team the victory in the overtime period. B. A.
