Sextet Will Face B.C. in Bean Pot Tussle

After Last Night's Victory

By Bruce M. Reeves

The varsity hockey team ran a routine practice session of passing and shooting to whip Northeastern, 12 to 3, last night, and outers the Beanpot Tournament final round tonight against a tough but short-handed Boston College sextet.

Center Bill Cleary led the Crimson's highest scoring spree this season with five goals and two assists against the Huskies. Two of his scores were solo tallies.

The Eagles, who defeated Boston University, 9 to 5, in their Tourney opener last night, will be without three of their starters, including top-scorer Bill Leary, when they meet the Crimson tonight.

Never behind after Frank Mahoney's first goal at 1:46, the varsity had a workout of rushing and shooting in the opening stanza against N.U. before its eager post-exam tempers began to flare in the second period.

Poor refereeing, which was responsible for at least eight uncalled high-sticking and slashing penalties on Northeastern's anxious but uncoordinated defensemen, encouraged the rough play which resulted in 11 additional called penalties.

With the whole squad of forwards playing, Coach Cooney Weiland came up with two major lineup changes which added to the sextet's already strong offensive attack.

Third Line Effective

defenseman Arty Noyes moved up as wing beside Captain Scott Cooledge and Mahoney, and that line accounted for two goals. Doug Manchester was shifted back to defense where he managed to score two goals and set up two more.

The best surprise last night was the improved and effective play making of their linemen Nicholas and Worthen, who consistently cutplayed Northeastern's first line and finally assisted in a third period goal by Denny Little.

Huskie goals Bill Lawn, though not quite up to his past performance against the Crimson was credited with 42 saves.
