Hockey Abegweits have now proved bevond a doubt their superiority over ali other in- termediate teams of this province. Last night they and the Stars played an exce!- lent game of hockey,—clean, clever and unobjectionable. Both teams were tke same as v hen they played before. The Stars seemed to lack the combined play of their former matches. Qne feature of the game was the many rushes made or both | sides. Forthe home team these rushes were directly responsible for three goals.
The Abegweits can clearly outskaie the Stars. As stick-handlers both teams were about evenly matched. The
work of the Abegweits’ forwards was ofa very high order. The defenee of both sides was excelient. In the first half the score was 4—2 for the Abegweits, and at the finish 9—3 for the Abegweite.
In the game between the Pioneers and Junior Abegweits toe teams were very evenly matched. It was the general opinion that the Abegweits would be little less than whitewashed. The reputed combination play of the Pionsers must have been left in Summerside. One very regrettable feature of the game was the diegusting exhibition a few of the p'ayers made of themselves, When our bockeyiste so far forget sportsmanlike conduct as to stoop to blows the prestige of the game will not be much benefited even theugh it be commuted by Juniors. Tbe blame rests cn the two teams in an even balance. In the first half the score was 2-2. The second balf gave another zcal to the western champions. Score 3—2.
Dr. Alley refereed the firet game and Mr. L. B McMillan the Junior.
