The first big game of the home season was played before an overflow crowd which filled Davis Rink to the rafters and whose cheers furnished scant consolation to the hundreds of others who milled gloomily around outside trying to get in. With a strong advance notice, the Yales arrived with the usual fire in their eyes, determined to beat the Green. They failed signally to do so. If it had not been for the inspired work of the Yale goalie, Van Ingen (who performed in a similar capacity for Dartmouth during the war), the score would undoubtedly have been in double figures. As it was, the three waves of Green operatives scored seven goals, with the great first line of Mather, Warburton, and Cunliffe accounting for six of the tallies, Mather scored three, Captain Ralph Warburton two, and Bruce Cunliffe one. Jack Riley and Whitey Campbell completed the scor- ing with a goal apiece. The high point in a hysterical evening for the local clients was undoubtedly Mather's solo dash while two of his teammates were sulking in the cooler for infractions of the regulations. Mather took the puck down the ice, adeptly feinted the Yale goalie out of position, and then casually slipped the rubber into the net.
THE RILEY LINE PUTS ON THE PRESSURE against the harried Yale defense in last month's game at Hanover which the Indians won 7-4. The Dartmouth players are, !. to r., Whitey Campbell, Bill and Jack Riley.
POURING IT ON, Bruce Cunliffe makes Capt. Terry Van Ingen of Yale save quickly to avert a score. The Big Green easily defeated the Elis, 7-4 before a record crowd in Davis Rink last month.
