It was one of the` fastest games played here this winter, but considerable criticism was` heard of Referee Petersen of Shanty Bay... The score was 4-1 for Hawkestone but this does not. show what advantage Guthrie had over them. Goal keeper` Shaw was called on to stop ten shots to Besse's one. The.Guthrie boys cer- tainly did well considering the kind of dea1`they~ got on the referee's deci- sions.
