Mar. 1--Dartmouth's fast six was just too much for a valiant but outplayed Harvard team here tonight as the Indian puckmen completed their second consecutive undefeated Quadrangular League season with a 4 to 2 victory over the Cantabs.
The Crimson skaters took an early lead in the first period and managed to hold the Hanovermen to a two-all tie at the end of the second, but little Dave Walsh, Dartmouth forward, broke away twice in the last canto and cinched the game for the home team.
Walsh, playing his last game for Dartmouth on home ice, was the high scorer for the evening, turning in three of the Big Green's tallies. For the visitors, Joe Patrick and Sophomore Joe Willetts shared the honors with one goal apiece.
The Crimson started out fast as Joe Patrick took a pass from Austie Harding on a jump into Green territory and slipped it past goalie Wes Goding at 1:52.
The second period saw a seemingly rejuvenated Dartmouth six put on the pressure as the Big Green went into the lead with two goals in the first four minutes of play, left winger Johnny Kelly and Dave Walsh each turning in a goal apiece.
Then at 5:45 the Crimson sextet was back in the fight when Joe Willetts made it two-all with a weak shot from center ice that somehow slipped through Wes Goding's legs. Dartmouth dominated the play in the last canto, with Dave Walsh adding to a brilliant evening with two goals, one at 14; 12 and 17:30, the latter scored when both Charlie Houghton and Warren Jameson were doing time in the penalty box.
The Summary: Dartmouth spares--Gopher Brooks, Walsh, Chase, Foster, Costello, Merriam, Larkin. Harvard spares--Eaton, DeRahm, Willets, Ervin, Hulse, Coleman, Carstein, Gray, Perkins, Claflin. First period--Harvard, Patrick (Harding) 1:52. Second period--Dartmouth, Kelley (Snow) 3:31; Dartmouth, Walsh, (Merriam) 3:50; Harvard--Willets 5:45.
