'rakes Wn The Engneer hockey squad traded one vctory for one defeat the early part of ths week, behnd the one-man scorng threat of sophomore Jm Fuller. The frst game was an overtme vctory aganst Fort Devens by the score of 7-6. B.C. took the Beavers over the coals n the Wednesday nght game to the tune of n the Devens game the Techmen came- from behnd to overtake a fghtng opponent n the second perod, only to lose thae lead and go nto overtme before Fuller's solo goal put the game away. Excellent play by Fort Devens' Falco and Devln as well as goale Frydryk made the gong dffcult. Spark Defense Excellent play by Fuller, Lea, Nolan. Russell and the Madden- Hodges combnaton sparked the defense, whle Fuller and Lea (the short tme he played! wth Jacobans headed the half-hearted offense. The Tech play was sloppy and slow durng the frst perod, but came along ncely durng the rest of the game. Jm Fuller put n four of the scores, whle Jacobans, Lea and Chsholm accounted for the other three. The game wth B.C. was a far dfferent story Through the entre frst perod the Eagles made the Engneers look very bad, and the Techmen themselves seemed to accept a bad defeat as nevtable. At ths pont Fuller agan.came through, wth the help of Don Lea., to score two talles. Scott Connor was dong a good job on the goal, holdng off sngle-handed many monoe threats than should have come hs way. Once agan the E3ngneers came out fghtng n the second and thrd perods, and Jacobans put two n the net after one by Gerry Walworth to brng the Tech total to fve.
