Varsity Icemen Beat Junior Olympics 10-3 in Practice Clash on Wednesday

Harding, Patrick, and Winslow, Coach Clark Bodder's very high-powered first line, led the pace with eight tallies Wednesday night as the Crimson six skated over the Junior Olympics by a 10 to 3 score at the Boston Skating Club rink.

Purely a practice encounter calculated to whip the Varsity back into shape after a long mid-year lay-off, the game was played under a mutual no-body-checking and no-penalties agreement. It was the second time that the two teams have met this season.

Captain Austie Harding was the leading scorer again with four tallies to his credit, but except for him and his line-mates the Crimson sextet was not playing up to pre-midyear standards.

Olympics Weakened

In all justice to the Olympics it should be pointed out that they had just returned from a hard game at Providence the night before and also played without the services of Charlie Arra, their star defenseman and Frankie Sullivan, first line center, who was forced out of the game early in the first period.

Harvard scored three times in the first period, once in the second and six times in a run-away last canto, keeping at least a three goal edge over the Olympics in the last two periods. Patrick and Winslow followed Harding in scoring with two goals apiece.

Wednesday night's game was the last for the Varsity until a week from Saturday when the Saint Nicholas Club comes to Boston for an Arena encounter. On the following Wednesday the Varsity will resume its League schedule with Dartmouth at the Boston Garden, breaking a League lay-off of almost exactly one month.
