Strong H.B.C. Hockey Aggregation at Vancouver
But Could Vancouver Get Away With this Stuff Against Edmonton H.B.C.?
ICE hockey has taken a hold on the staff to such an extent this Winter that we are able to produce one of the foremost teams in the commercial league. The team is on an even basis with the speedy Kerrisdale team for first place. These two teams have not met as yet, but when they do it is safe to say it will be one of the hardest contested games of the season.
It is interesting to note that our hockey team has not lost a game as yet.
