All afternoon classes at the college were cancelled and the entertainments began at 2 p.m. with a bang-up hockey game at the Forum. followed later in the afternoon by a girl's basket- ball match. The Welshmen were victorious in both competiluu-. In the evening the specialities continued with a boys hoop game which was followed by a largely attended dance with music by the Downtowners. A large majority of the stu- dent body snd many members of the faculty attended all the events of the Day and gave their representative charges lots of moral support from the side-lines. Doug Cudmore paced the Welsh- men to their 6-5 hockey victory at the Forum over the Moncton boys as he scored three goals. including the winner. and also set up a fourth. The stocky center- man bounced the winning goal in the net off the frame of a team-mate shortly before the fin- al session of the fast. rugged contest ended. Ralph Whitehead had brought the team from be- hind just minutes before. George MacDonald and Blair Herring were the other Welshmen mark- esmnn. George Psppas was the big gun for the Moncton squad. collecting a hat-trick and assist- ing on another. Boyd Touchlo and Ralph Lund were the other Moncton scorers. In basketball, the Welshmen girls defeated the Old Timers by a very wide margin in Ito after- noon contest while the male col- lege hoopsters ysre edged by the Monctonians in a well-played game in the evening. All members of the visiting team were guests at the dance in the evening and will return home by bus later today. , P. W. C.-Goal. E. Diamond; Defence: G. MacDonald. D. Cur- rie. R. Stanley. G.
