Wittenberg Wins Parents Day Game
Over Engineers; Leib, Oehlke Score
Twenty-one points in the fourth
quarter broke open a tight
struggle Saturday as Wittenberg,
ranked high among the nation's
better small-college football
powers for the last several seasons, won 37-14 over Lehigh
before 9,500 fans in Taylor
Stadium.
The Tigers from Springfield,
O., were ahead only 16-14 going
into the final period. Lehigh,
after trailing by 14 points at
halftime, had fought backtoclose
the gap and seriously threaten the
invading squad.
Wittenberg (8-1 in 1966 and
1967) won for the second time in
two games, previously having
romped 41-8 over Capital
University of Columbus, O.

scores, included Maury Sacks 77,

the scoring, giving Lehigh a 315

Host Penn State won the tournament with a 291 and Navy was

finished "in the middle" of the
pack.

Booters Victorious
Over Gettysburg, 3-1
A pair of goals by Don Ferrell
enabled Lehigh's soccer team to
trip visiting Gettysburg last
week, 3-1, after the Engineers

Bullets had gone ahead 1-0, to
tie the game, and tallied again
after Simon Newton's marker
had sent Lehigh out front.

Butch Laubenstein scored against
Muhlenberg in a double overtime
draw. Lehigh kept pressure onthe

Coach's Comment
" Our squad looked very good
against Gettysburg and the
victory was a big one for our
morale. The defense was considerably better than against
Muhlenberg with Wayne Laitala
and Chuck Fetters helping out.
Gettysburg tied us last year and
we expected a lot of trouble."

Record $180,000 Slated
For Athletic Scholarships
The highest Annual Giving goal
in the history of Lehigh University — one million dollars —
was announced Sept. 17 by the
Committee on Annual Giving at its
meeting in New York City. The
goal represents a 33 per cent
increase over last year's Fund
objective.
The 1967-68 Fund, with a
$750,000 goal, realized more than
$820,000. This was an all-time
high for Lehigh Annual Giving
and was achieved despite the fact
that more than 3,000 alumni were
continuing payments on Centennial Fund pledges.
A record sum of $180,000 of
this year's Fund total will be used
for student athletic scholarships,
the Alumni Student Grant Scholarship Program receiving the
largest single portion of the
1968-69 Annual Giving Fund.
At the meeting President W.
Deming Lewis discussed plans
for Lehigh's future. He spoke of
the ever-increasing role the Annual Giving Fund plays in the
University's educational program. President Lewis and his
staff highlighted the continuing
need for unrestricted funds,
which are used for general faculty and student development.
Edward A. Curtis, '25, last
year's chairman of the Annual
Giving Committee, will head this
year's Fund. Curtis said the Asa
Packer Society chaired by Edwin
H. Snyder '23, which supplied
42% of the 67-68 Fund, will again
be an important factor in reaching the $1 million goal.
Curtis went on to say the 1968-
69 Annual Giving Fund will be
launched nationally on November 7.
Individual campaigns will be
conducted in more than twenty
areas including New York City,
North Jersey, Allentown, Bethlehem, Philadelphia, Pittsburgh,
Chicago, Detroit and Boston.
