CRIMSON SWAMPS BRUINS IN UNEVEN HOCKEY TILT, 15-3

Providence Sextet Dazed by Baldwin-Putnam Combination--Improvement In Passing, Third String Effective

Smashing through a Brown line that was no match for the Crimson Varsity skaters, Pruyn led a rapid fire attack scoring two goals within a minute, unassisted, and contributed to almost every tally in the 15-3 rout last night on the ice in Providence.

From the first period it was inevitable that the Crimson, fortified by a new scoring punch, would pile up a big total. Not only was the Crimson play distinguished by an air-tight defense, but Baldwin-Putnam scoring combination was working with great effectiveness, and Pruyn's solo dashes that continually split the Bruin defense-zone gave the Crimson an evident superiority.

In the second period Coach Stubbs put in the third line, with Reese as goalie. For a moment Brown appeared to stage a comeback, but Baldwin, assisted by Putnam, scored twice within twelve seconds, followed by Pruyn's two tallies, and the Bear was definitely discouraged. Pruyn was continually harassing the big Sophomore goalie, Peckham, who is the outstanding man on the Providence team.

In the final frame, Dow played a crack defense game for Harvard and Pruyn was on all parts of the ice at once. Baldwin shot the puck into the cage twice, and the Crimson men hovered around the Brown net like bees returning to the hive. Chase and Captain Brown put up an admirable defense throughout the game but could not stand against the Crimson tide.

The summary: HARVARD  BROWN Baldwin, l.w.  r.w., Johnson Saltonstall, Pruyn, c.  c., Legg Wolcott, r.w.  l.w., Chase Watts, l.d.  r.d., Clement Martin, r.d.  l.d., Tracy deGive, g.  g., Folwer
