CULTIVATING

Modern Tactics That Should Be Learned By Players To-day

(By "Pilgrim"):

HOCKEY SENSE

In the absence of a better word I am using it with the hope that it will not catch the oye of a psychologist, who would certainly ponaliso me for some infringo mont of his rules. By "hockey senso" I mean what a player can, by his sincere efforts at learn ing the game and close observation of others, sense exactly what to do and what not to do.

It is the final development of a class player, beginning from team-work, positional play and anticipation, to this last stage.
