Graney, Fischer Receive Trophies For Hockey Team Performances

Michael Graney '60, of Leverett House and Norwood, Mass., was awarded the Angier Hockey Trophy at a recent informal meeting of the hockey squad. The trophy is presented annually to the player showing the greatest improvement during the season.

The John Tudor trophy for the team's most valuable player was given to Richard S. Fischer '59, of Leverett House and Buffalo, N.Y. This season Fischer scored 30 goals from his position at center. Together with fellow team member George Higginbottom, he expects to try out next year for the United States Olympic team.

After spending the previous season at the wing position, Graney was switched to defense, where his performance became almost consistently better in successive games.

Next year Graney will be captain of the team that expects to regain the Ivy League hockey crown for Harvard. Because of the very strong freshman team this season, sophomores probably will play in several key positions, with Graney perhaps the team's only senior.
