team of the lehigh valley soccer league and a few weeks previous showed their ability by defeating the varsi ty three goals to none im a hard fought game the wanderers showed their su periority from the start and at the end of the first half were on the long end of a4to 1 score never theless the contest was hard fought and the lehigh men although out played fought hard to keep down the score and muirhead the clever brown and white center-forward succeeded in booting a well-directedi shot into the net in the second half the brown and white team showed a decided improvement defensively and al though the wanderers succeeded 1 in netting two goals the copt^st was by no means one-sided goal-tender hubbard kept down the score by making several very difficult stops of hard-booted and well-aimed

navy team 2to 0 the lehigh team put up a very poor exhibition although they were possibly worn out from the army game and their long trip the forwards were especially weak and it was only due to the strong defense that the score was not larg er fernandez lehigh's center for ward was away off his usual game and failed to get a single clean try for goal michelina and brewer put up an exceptional game on the defense and intercepted a good many almost sure goals both of the navy scores were made in the first half after thir ty minutes of play creehan made the first score on a penalty kick from the spot in front of the goal then in the very last minute of the first half moore made the final point of the game during this half the ball was in lehigh terri tory by far the greater part of the time continued on page four in the second half the lehigh team took a decided brace and due to their superb defense held the na vy scoreless although the boys from annapolis played an exceptionally hard game in the first half only a bit of hard luck kept the brown and white from a score human broke through the entire navy de fense and from the 10-yard line took a shot at the goal the ball went

pleased with the performance the pro ceeds of the evening are to be giv en to the lehigh university y m c a a synopsis of the play is as fol lows 1 candida has a cockney con tractor for a father and a christian socialist preacher for a husband father and husband have disagreed and 1 make up again ; but that is not the story the preacher has a girl stenographer and an admiring cu rate ; they clash ; but that also is not the story the social reformer preacher has brought home a young poet who has now fallen in love with candida and cannot see any possible bond of sympathy between the husband and wife that is at least the complication of the story for the poet tells what he believes quite as bluntly as the preacher says continued on page three the competition for positions on the business
