Hockey Win.

In a fast and hard fought game on the following afternoon at the Nomads Field, the hockey team of H.M.S. Hernies downed the No- mads to the score of 4 goals to 0. The game was featured by the scoring of the second goal. The ball was centred after a un down the left wing, and, although com- iny awkwardly and breast-high to the inside „man, wns swiftly balanced on his stick, and, without a moment's hesitation, flashed into the net,

Immediately afterwards came the third goal, which virtually settled the lasue. A smart piece of portamism was responsible for the tally, for the hall seemed safely at the mercy of the local defence when a Hermes forward swoopeil down and planted it home. The final score was made after the Nomads had narrowly missed opening their sécount.

At the height of the rag the Ox- ford fire brigade dashed up with a fire escape and lender, and firemen armed with extinguishers entered the building.

Their appearance was cheered by the students, and when they re- appeared from the building and drove off there was a further out- burst. The call was part of the hoax.

The fact that several non-pro- fessional members of the brigade. lose pay every time they turn out to a fire apparently carried no weight with the undergraduates.
