Featured by superior defensive play which set up several scores, Al Dewey's Freshman pucksters overwhelmed Cambridge Latin 6-2 yesterday evening at the Skating Club.

The game was won by individual, rather than by team performance. Honors go to Dem Lloyd at center, whose sinking of a pass-out by Walt Whittaker from behind the net nullified an early Cambridge lead midway in the first stanza. It was the only assist of the game. After 37 seconds of the second period, Lloyd again split the Cambridge defense, and placed Harvard in the lead, 2-1.

Charlie Boudreau, speedy Cambridge right wing, who has been instrumental in keeping his team in the first three of the Greater Boston Schoolboy League, rivalled Lloyd as a scoring threat. In the first period his high shot bounced by Harvey Taylor, and on a dash similar to Lloyd's evened up the tally at 2-2 at the end of the second period.

Good bodychecking by Bud Chandler and Greely Summers broke up Cambridge's four man offense in the third stanza, and steady backchecking hampered the wings. Several late Cambridge attempts to score were stopped by brilliant saves by Johnny Lovell, substitute goalie.

Harvard had control of the puck throughout the latter part of the period, and Owen Lightstone broke into the scoring column by whipping the puck past McCauley.
