Hawks was the better side throughout the match and kept the Wolves on the defensive for most of the game. Wolves showed occasional flashes of good play, but with two new players in their forward line, their teamwork was not the best. O. Murphy, recently transferred from Ranger* to Wolves, sparked off some good move*, but they were often broken up by the failure at his fellow Mayers to keep up with him. Tbe Hawks' defence ha* been improving with every game and their feeder shots to the forward* were well placed and often resulted in goals. C. Robinson. the Hawks’ goalie, played a particularly good game, and stopped a number of potentially dangerous move* by diving straight at th* feet of the puck carrier. Scorer* were:—Hawks: J. McCarthy >. G. Bainton 1, A. Hamilton i, J. van der Griend 1, B. Offord 1. N. Hole 1. Woives: J. Waflta 1. J Brizzell. O. Murphy. I McDonald The referee* were Messrs B. Lerner and G. Hitchcock.
