Cold and Confused

Over 1,500 fans donned woolen socks and shaggy mufflers and watched the two most recent ice hockey games at the heatless Watson Rink. They were not only cold, but also confused because the HAA has apparently decided that a loud speaker system is unnecessary at games it considers of minor interest. So penalties, pucks, points and players raced by, unannounced and often unknown.

The confusion and the annoyance could be avoided if the HAA would realize that paying spectators have a right to know what is going on. In addition, if such games as the recent contests with Tufts and Williams are so negligible, why schedule them in the first place? Such legitimate questions can be answered with a microphone, a loudspeaker, and an electric plug.
