DEAR PUBLISHER,
MUSTANGS :STILL CHAMPS.
'The Ripley Mustangs gloomily,
yet courteously, walked out of
the Lucknow arena, April 1.
The goal scored by Lucknow .with
5(C Second's left, was not counted
inour eyes as the gpalie with
the puck was forced into the
net which of course cannot be
done in hockey, according to
Jack Henderson. We .took .it at
the time, but. could; not sit
placidly by after. reading the
much glorified account in, last
week's Sentinel
We appreciated the compet-
ition,

. attempt to 'dethrone us , . but it
was a 2-2 game and we are
still the champs, not only ,in •
hockey,but in sportsmanship.
