gical research at the national phy sical laboratory to-night there will be a joint meeting of all the student engineer ing societies in the physics lecture room at 8 o'clock the lecture will be somewhat moire technical than the talk in the chapel the subject being straim and fracture of metals in view of the fact that at the presenlt time metallurgical science is in process of continual 1 development the wcfrd of such an authority as dr rosenhain should prove of great value metallography is an other branch of the subject which will receive treatment arrangements have been made for dr rosenhain to speak not on ly at lehigh but at a number of universities and institutions such as yale columbia massachusetts t.tch michigan illinois and also at public meetings in various cities more applications for lectures have been received than dr rosenhain can possibly give while in america so lehigh is honored in being se lected as one of the colleges to hear him he comes undeir the invita tion of the american institute or mining and metallurgical engineers initial bethlehem appearance of combined musical organ izations next week southern trip planned beginning next monday febru ary the 19th the combined musical clubs will have a three-day engage ment at the grand theatre giving a musical program at both shows in the evening there will be numbers by the mandolin club the glee club and the jazz quartette which has some new features the biggest attrac tion on the program wild be the im personations of the famous al jol son by the lehigh celebrity john op dyke it will be remembered the big hit johnny made last year with his songs when the musical clubs were at the kurtz theatre it is also understood that john has agreed to sing the famous song of the ages known as solomon levi the southern trip which mana ger litke has been making exten sive plans for has received the con sent of the faculty and it will only be a question of time until all the dates will be settled this trip which is something mew will cover such cities as baltimore wilming ton washington and possibly phil adelphia where a complete musical program will be given this is a new field for the musical clubs of lehigh and it is hoped that vari ous other clubs will also have the opportunity to take such trips many other institutions have been sending their musical and dramatic clubs on trips which cover as many as ten engagements the publicity which such a trip will afford le high will be of great value in the future club members are requested to watch the bulletin-boards closely for announcements concerning the re hearsals frosh to wrestle cornell yearlings lacrossemen practice in camp coppee the brown and white five will meet the strong lafayette team in taylor gymnasium next saturday night this game is the first of the two-*game series with our maroon and white rivals from down the river the second game of the se ries will be played at easton on march 10th although every le high-lafayette game is bitter and hotly contested this game bids fair to surpass all plrevious engagements in fight and spirit as both teams are strong about evenly matched and out to win with everything they have ready to be put in the game last year it will be remembered lafayette won both of the games by a small margin of a few points both games being in doubt until the final whistle blew the lehigh team is determined to avenge these defeats and every man on the team is going to put all he has and prob ably a little more into that game lafayette has lost two of her last year's team reeves and lehecka ; their loss has undoubtedly weaken ed the maroon to some extent but nevertheless their line-up looks quite formidable with such a scoring com bination as brennan crate and longacre crate and longacre are two of the fastest forwards in col legiate ranks ; captain longacre has especially distinguished himself in his games this year all three of these players will be remembered from last yealr's games kearney will play one of the guard positions while it is doubtful as to just who will be lafayette's fifth man continued on page four lehigh's line-up will be the same as in the w and j game captain lingle and hess will play the for ward positions lees will jump cen ter and hartung and weinstein will occupy the two guard positions lehigh will be greatly hampered by tryouts held for the girl from the collie to-morrow afternoon at 2 o'clock the massachusetts institute of tech nology will make their initial ap pearance on the mat against the brown and white squad l . the meet will be held in taylor gymnasium and is the first encounter ever staged between the two institutions little has been heard as to tech nology's experiences in the various realms of sport and so far inquiries as to the merits of her matmen have yielded but slight information however the team that will meet the lehigh matmen to-morrow af ternoon lays claim to the intercol legiate championship of the new england states in the big inter collegiate class they met and defeat ed the army squad by the close margin of 14 to 13 the represen tatives who are to be the most fear ed are those of the 115-pound class and the 175-pound class since the lehigh try-outs had not been held and m i t had not sub mitted her team roster when this issue went to press no information is at hand regarding the line-up of either squad at least it will be in teresting to watch the clash in ath letics between the two colleges whose names have so long been linked together in the engineering woirld seniors will elect class day officers lacrosse practice was started on monday afternoon in camp cop pee the squad which reported was too large to be accommodated mi the small space so it was split into two pairts squad a and squad b squad a will report on monday and thursday afternoons and squad b will report on tuesday and friday afternoons at 4 o'clock wednesday afternoon is being held open for men from both squads who wish to secure more practice than is afforded in the two periods which are required regular practice will be continued in camp coppee until weather conditions make it possible to move outdoors aftelr a lapse of two weeks the freshman wrestling team will again get into action in taylor gymnasi um to-morrow afternoon having as their opponents the cornell year lings the meet will furnish the lesser half of an afternoon's enter tainment the main feature being the clash between the varsity and the strong m i t grapplers the freshmen this yeatr have been coming along as well as could be expected under the circumstances although defeated by blair acad emy and perm freshmen too much criticism must not be put upon their prowess it is impossible to expect the production of a winning team where the competition has been so limited there has not been a suf ficient number of candidates and in this lies the real difficulty every team lehigh has met in the tank so far this year has been a winner and an aggregation which was worthy of the best most of them institutions which had far greater advantages in the sport than our own mermen and yet none of the scores have been overwhelming this evening the brown and white tankmen meet the represen tatives of the university of pitts burgh little is known of the pitts burgh swimmers but in years past they have always been hard oppo nents and it is safe to say that they will not let down this year the only recent news of the pittsburgh squad is that they forced the navy team to the limit before losing by a very close score the navy is known to have a squad of champ ionship calibre so it can be seen that lehigh is up against a tough prop osition captaim underwood has be en working his men to the limit since the opening of this term and lias cut down the time and lengthened the distance on several events the plunging event in friday's meet will be handled by captain underwood and regad the veteran of last year child's will probably take care of the diving while harmon the speed king will take care of the sprints several changes are expected in the relay line-up but coach lukens has made no definite statements as to what they may be the swimming enthusiasts can look forward to a good meet for the brown and white men are out for blood and are planning to spring a few surprises notice another fiercely contested game was staged in taylor gymnasium on wednesday evening when wash ington and jefferson came up from behind and in a game which re quired two extra five-minute peri ods defeated the brown and white five 35 to 27 as in the rutgers game the lehighi five played in championship style the first half and almost doubled the southerners score at its end 19 to 10 but the team's game seemed to crack in the second half allowing the presidents to fofrge ahead and tie the score c conn won the game for the south erners n the second extra period
