Keeping right' on where they left off last week, the Crimson sextet trounced Princeton's hoceky team 8-4 Saturday night on the Baker Memorial rink for the visitors' eighteenth straight win.
In spite of the Tiger's reputed new defensive strength, the game was less than nine minutes old before Austie Harding took one of George Ford's passes from behind the cage and rammed it home before Goalie Baker had time to get set for the shot. Just a few minutes later Johnny Mechem put the Crimson further ahead when he converted a pass from George Roberts.
17 Seconds
Seventeen seconds after the second goal, Win Jameson passed the puck from a scramble in front of the Orange and Black net and Joe Patrick had no trouble in rifling the disk into the corner for the third Crimson tally of the evening. With the opening period nearly over, George Roberts scored an unassisted goal. Just before Roberts counted, however, Cook took a pass from Woodhull and surprised "Specs" Mahoney for Princeton's first score.
With only one goal made for each team, the second period was rather dull. Tiger net-minder Baker came out several times to smother potential scoring setups, and it was not until the half way mark that the Crimson scored again with the Ford to Harding combination once more in the saddle.
Opens with a Rush
Wasting no time, Jameson scored at the 12 second mark of the third period after a pass from center Patrick. Breaking into the scoring column Russ Allen drew Baker from the cage and converted a pass from Traf Hicks for Harvard's seventh marker. Austie Harding closed the Crimson's scoring when he teamed once more with George Ford and scored his third goal of the set-to.
The summary: Harvard alternates--Ecker, Emerson, Mechem, Roberts, Cutter, Pope, Patrick, Jameson, Kidder. Princeton alternates -- Stonington, Cook, Woodhull, Muller, Covey, Cochrane, Fraker, Moore.
