First, the Duluth goal was seriously threatened, then the attack would be at the visitors‘ stronghold. (A boy named [MeGuive, who is playing left wing for Cleveâ€" land, gave us some real frights in every period but especially in the first when he was missing onr goal by inches on hard driven shots. He is a wizard at the stick, a grand skater, has superhuman endurance and the couraze of a terrier, His style of going is cleanâ€"cut. He drives hard all the way. The crowd liked him. The fans showed their appreciation when he was hurt in the second perâ€" iod, When he got back into the game he was given a rousing ovation that rocked the staid old rink. He was given more applause than the Cleveâ€" land team received when it first skatâ€" ed out onto the ice. (MeGuire countâ€" ed for Cleveland in the final period of the contest when he shot a pretty goal from scrimmage near the fiveâ€" minute stage.

St. Paul, Minneapolis, Duluth and other newsâ€" papers have singled him out for parâ€" ticular and extended mention, while the Cleveland press is unanimous in handing him bouquets.
