1919 HOCKEY

In spite of the precarious attitude of the University athletic authorities towards the resumption of hockey this winter, in spite of the recent burning of the only indoor rink in Boston, and in spite of the lateness of the season some four score hockey enthusiasts gathered at the H. A. A. Yesterday evening to discuss the problem of producing a University and Freshman seven this year. The enthusiasm thus displayed indicates that the undergraduates are looking and hoping for as speedy a return to the activities of ante-bellum days as may be possible--and there seems little to prevent this being accomplished. If the squads are interested enough to organize themselves and practice without any definite hope of an outside match, it seems only fair to assume that those in a position to do so will make every effort to permit a short schedule, or possibly merely a game with Yale--if, of course, Yale is willing and able to afford the necessary opposition. In any event, judging by the present outlook, the sport will merit the support of the University.
