number of scoring chances em thompsons charges should have emerged easy victors over the bolton team tn both games goalie hall was sensational especially on his home ice and was georgetown s only stumbling block the bolton team were favored to win the title but they are by no means out of the woods yet in the georgetown intermediates we have one of the gamest teams in search of the group leadership every player rthis year is a oeorggxfarn boy and they are making one bid to oust their opponents from the running both players and officials went wild up in bolton when referee houston allowed ritchie a goal for george town when wilkinson threw his stick while he was about to score for a few minutes it looked as though the game might be called off as the play ers swarmed around the referee and would not start the game until the proverbial rule book was produced here is a brief account of the two games the game here georgetown intermediates looked like real comers when they out play ed and out skated uie famed bolton squad in a fast and furious group final here last friday night never before this winter had the local in termedlate team turned in sulh i fine performance they were the evenings heroes and the large number of fans were behind them the 2 2 score does not indicate the balance of play while the bolton team turned in some good efforts they were stagger lag on their feet by the almost in creditable pace set by the local team the first line of richardson tost and ward skated at lightning speed and carried the play nearly all lug dewhurst played one of his best games on defense while joe hall and sanderson turned in a good game also while the second line of rid dall crlchton aftd ritchie were not so flashy as in previous games their unceasing back checking disorganized the whole bolton team ab crocker and schaefer who have jieeti a threat to the george town ream all season were unable to get the breaks and therefore were only allotted a goal apiece georgetown led at the end of the first period when richardson and tost scored against crocker s tally for bolton in the middle session bolton tied the score when shaefer counted from a scramble in front of the george town net there was no scoring in the third period and the game ended in a 2 tie the game in bolton soft and sticky ice greeted the teams up in bolton last night and as a result play was rather ragged and good hockey out of the question as the players could not carry the puck bolton carried the play for the opening moments of the first period then georgetown took the edge and gave the home fans a few anxious moments both teams were hindered by the much smaller ice surface es peclally georgetown the bolton team having played allhejrjrame games there it wjprnot long however tin til bostonveered when hall was left alone on defence to break up a three man crush on the pass wilkinson went in dose to beat malone chap man for bolton was then penalized for slashing but there was no more scoring and the period ended bolton 1 georgetown 0 play was very rough in the middle stage as the heavy ice made the play hard going chapman received hu second penalty and the locals failed to take advantage again of the odd man ward was the next to get the nod but georgetown continued to carry the play georgetown s roil came when bill ritchie skater in close on hall only to have wilk nson throw his stick and deflect the puck he was awarded the goflleven though bolton protested l6udly to referee houston who would not change his decision this goal again tied up the score in the final period georgetown pressed the play to the bolton end of the ice time and again sheeny tost was in on goalie hall for what looked like sure goals but that lad must have been covered with horse shoes and managed to make some re markable saves at the end of full time both teams were on the verge of collapse after the hectic battle no overtime was allowed necessitating a third game dewhurst was a standout in this game with his many brilliant rushes r that earned him right through to the goal and also for his one defensive work ward and ritchie both play ed well with tost turning- in some
