Lehigh Co-Winner In Lambert Race Vol. 16 — No. 11 Engineers Roll Up 58 To Crush Lafayette, 45-13 : McQuilken MVP For Second Time LAFAYETTE heaved a sigh of relief when Kim McQuilken, shown left unloading against the Leopards, completed his three-year dominance of the series but picked up new worries as Lehigh freshman Rod Gardner (No. 41) stepped in as a star of the future. Gardner carried the ball 27 times for 141 yards, caught four passes for 61 yards, scored twice and was a close second to McQuilken in the MVP voting.

One of the finest senior groups in Lehigh history—given a substantial boost by a super freshman—bid farwell to Engineer football competition Saturday with a resounding triumph over Lafayette before 18,000 spectators in Taylor Stadium, 45-13. The victory made Lehigh co- winner of the coveted Lambert Cup, emblematic of eastern Div. 2 gridiron supremacy, with Delaware. (See other story, this page). It's the third time the Engineers have taken Lambert honors, the first since 1961. They won the cup the first year it was established in 1957. Coach Fred Dunlap's squad finished the season with a 7-3-1 mark, against a particularly difficult schedule, and will take a winning streak of four into 1974 competition. Lafayette concluded a 6-3-1 campaign. Many of the seniors who sparkled this year were members of the strong 1971 club which went 8-3. During their varsity careers they helped win 20 games against 12 losses and one tie. They had a perfect record against Lafayette with victories of 48-19,14-6 and 45-13. Lehigh has whipped the Leopards three in a row, five of the last six, and 10 of the last 13 along with one tie. Dunlap, who broke even against the Leopards during his hectic early rebuilding seasons of 1965 through 1968, has a personal 6-3 winning record against Lehigh's arch-rival. Lafayette still holds a 62-42-5 margin in this most-played series in college football but the margin is diminishing each season with Lehigh clearly having taken charge. In game No. 109 the Leopards employed a fine ball-control drive to score the first time they had possession, and also to get a touchdown the last time they had the ball. Between those annoyances, however, Lehigh ran up a string of six touchdowns, six conversions and a field goal for its 45 points. Only a fumble, in the shadow of the goal posts, and several costly penalties kept the Engineers from adding substantially to their total. Three years ago Lehigh set rushing (506) and total offense (664) records against the Leopards. Saturday they established a one-game passing mark with 390 yards while completing 20 of 32 aerials. The old standard was 338 yards against Drexel in 1971. Individual standouts were seniors Kim McQuilken of Allentown, Pa., at quarterback, and tight end Bill Schlegel of Troy, N.Y. The super frosh giving them a major boost was tailback (Continued on Page 2) Fall Dinner Is Nov. 26 Lehigh's annual fall sports banquet is scheduled for next Monday, Nov. 26, in Windish Hall (opposite Taylor Stadium) at 7 p.m. A social hour will commence at 6 p:m. This affair is sponsored by the Lehigh Home Club in conjunction with the Allumni Assn. and the Dept. of Athletics at the University. Football, cross country, soccer and field hockey squads and coaching staffs are to be honored. A similar dinner in the spring is held for all other sports. Fall teams had excellent records topped by the footballers who shared Lambert Cup honors with Delaware and the cross country runners who shared Middle Atlantic Conference title laurels with Bucknell. George Pitsilos, 608 W. Broad St., Bethlehem, is reservations chairman. His office phone number is 691-6500. Lee Barthold, Jr., and Paul W. Wagner, both of Bethlehem, are president and secretary, respectively, of the Lehigh Home Club. Alumni, friends and guests are invited to attend the Nov. 26 dinner.
