Varsity Stickmen Stop N.H.; J.V., Freshman Teams Win

Saturday was a great day for Harvard lacrosse teams. The Varsity won; the J.V. won; the Freshmen won.

Bob Maddux' lacrossemen had pretty much of a holiday up in Durham, N. H., as they flattened a game crew of New Hampshire Wildcats by a 10 to 1 count. The game was not nearly so rough as the Varsity expected; on the contrary, many of the Wildcat players spent much of the game questioning Crimson men on the fine points of the game.

New Hampshire had a slightly better team than last year, but that didn't have much effect on Hans Estin, Charley Gregg, or Dick Bezanson. This trio racked up three, two, and three goals respectively. A brace of midfielders, Austie Lyne and Algy Allen netted the remaining Crimson scores.

The game was never much of a contest as the Varsity left the field at half time with a five goal bulge. In fact the only sour notes of the Varsity's day came from Hanover, where Dartmouth crushed M.I.T., 21 to 2.

Back in Cambridge, "Passing Paul" Birdsall for once neglected the playmaking side of his game to the advantage of his team, scored three times, and led Eddie Davis' Jayvees to a 4 to 2 overtime victory over Now England College.

At the same time the Varsity played, George Hanford's '51 stickmen took the measure of New Hampshire's freshmen by an 11 to 2 count. Some observers thought that with a little seasoning the little Wilcats could take their varsity.
