Princeton will encounter a Harvard varsity hokey team that has been considerably chastened in the Crimson's next major battle at Princeton on January 14. Saturday night's overwhelming defeat, 8-1, at the hands of a whirlwind Toronto team n New York has left the Cambridge skaters in a sad plight. Although the Crimson got the jump at the start and repeatedly carried the puck to the visitor's cage, the Toronto goalie, Shipp, prevented a score by some miraculous stops during the first 15 minutes of the Harvard offense. It was not until the second period that the Canadians let loose a terriffic barrage of shots on deGive who was unable to stop the puck six times. Dewar, who played at defense for the opponents, checked Harvard's advance and stole the rubber so often that the Crimson seemed powerless. A pass from Dewar enabled Hendry to make the first tally with a long slam that passed over deGive's shoulder to light the red bulb.
Crimson Offense Melts Promptly after Baldwin was removed for tripping in the second period the Crimson offense melted before the sorties of Jeffrey, Smillie, and Hendry, who tallied a brace of goals each. In the final round the Crimson recovered from their demoralized condition and held the invaders to one tally.
Obviously 'Coach Stubbs' men were not playing the sterling brand of hockey that they have sprung on several occasions earlier in the season. deGive was not in the best of form and Torouto seemed to be able to surround and block off the Crimson sextet at will. Fifteen Harvard spares went in to stem the tide but could not stand the pace. Baldwin saved the team from a white-wash by an unassisted score two minutes before the close of the game. Both Princeton and Yale have succumbed to
Toronto but put on braver exhibitions than the Crimson showed in Madison Square Garden Saturday
