team in all the running events with the possible exception of the high hur dles are extremely bright as for the field events the time and facil ities for practice have deen too lim ited to know with any degree of cer tainty how the candidates are per forming in their various events every effort will be made to start the meet promptly so as to com plete it before the lacrosse game which begins at

champions prof miller to speak at st paul's society to-morrow the brown and white lacrosse team makes its initial ap pearance of the season when they meet the university of maryland team on taylor field while the game will have no effect on the league standing of lehigh it will however give coach o'neill an op portunity to see the team in action and try out the host of material which is at his disposal this year the coach is reasonably confident of his men in this first tilt but he is not under-estimating the strength of the visiting team in any way while maryland has not been able to boast of a championship team she nevertheless covered herself with glory last saturday when she overwhelmed the strong stephens team by an 8 to 1 score lehigh's opponent has a consid erable advantage at this time for due to the warmer climate in the south her team has been able to have outdoor scrimmages for some time back lehigh has been par ticularly unfortunate this year the weather keeping the team indoors much longer than usual however lehigh will enter sat urday's tilt with no alibis and ev ery one is confident that they will come through with a rousing vic tory the candidates have been training faithfully for many weeks and are in the pink of condition which after all is one of the most vital requisites of any lacrosse team during the easter vacation the coach kept the varsity squad here and held practice each morning the coach has beem trying men in different positions so it is not possible to foretell at this time just what men will fill the positions on the varsity the following are the men who have showed the most promise and who stand the best chance of getting varsity berths : — abel buck c f bishop bradley cusick brewer h day darcy greer fuller hewitt jones kutz

notice the brown and white nine lost its first game of the season to the strong vermont team in a seven inning game on wednesday after noon by a 3 to 2 score the game was called at 5:45 in order to al low the new englanders to catch a train to washington where they are to play georgetown neither team played perfectly but for a season-opener the game was very good vermont had an excel lent pitcher in newton the le high batters were for the most part unable to connect with his twirling perhaps due to lack of batting prac tice although at times he was ra ther wild newton allowed only two hits to be garnered by the lehigh nine and struck out five of the brown and white players at the bat the vermont pitcher starred al so making a single and a triple at three trips to the plate lees pitched a good game had he had better support he might at least have held the visitors to a tie when kirchner dropped an easy fly in the seventh inning it allowed vermont to score her winning run kirchner however is a new player of very great promise and possibly was a bit nervous on wednesday as it was his first game for lehigh he played a heady game and scor ed one of the brown and white's two runs harwi was the hero of the game when in the sixth inning he knocked a homer over the fence tying the score had there been anyone on base then vermont would not have won the first inning was rather un eventful conlin got to first but the next three men were out le high's three men at bat never reach ed the base the next two minings were about the same bradley and harwi reached first but got no far ther in the second and in the third on both sides the men went out in one two three order in the fourth newton got to first but was strand ed kirchner took his base on balls when lehigh came to bat adams went out oni a fly to center when harwi was at the bat kirchner stole second on a wild ball harwi also took his base on balls lees made first base on an infield fly but harwi was caught at second kirchner scored when young drop ped rodgers's long fly to center hess struck out in the fifth inning vermont tied the score bradley reached second on a long pole to center ready knocked another one to the same place getting to first base and al lowing bradley to reach the home plate conlin sacrificed and chev alier and mcginnis both went out on infield flies rowley and o keefe were put out at first ricko rick reached the base tut kirchner went out on a fly in the sixth newton reached third on a long shot to center which continued on page six the st paul's society will hold a very

purpose of en abling american college students and instructors to travel in foreign countries at minimum cost under dignified auspices and under con ditions whichi permit a close con tact with the people and institutions of the countries visited 1 . they rep resent merely a new application of the program which the institute of international education has beem carrying out for many years in the direction of a closer international understanding through educational opportunities — a program which in the past has been characterized by such activities as international ex change professorships and scholar ships the exchange of scholarly pe riodicals and the promotion of the study of international problems the international students tours have been organized to meet a dou ble need the need for travel as a broadening and vitalizing element in the education of our young men and women and the need for travel as a means of establishing a closer in tellectual relationship between the youth of america and of other countries they have been organ ized to place the benefits of travel within the reach of representative young americans who in a few years will take a leading place in the

under the auspices of the universi ty of pennsylvania will be held this year on friday and saturday april 27th and 28th this great carnival which is now acknowledged to be the greatest annual track and field meeting held any place in the world annually will again have interna tional importance this is due to the fact that oxford university in england will send a two-mile team to compete in the american college two-mile relay championship this will be very welcome and interest ing news to the thousands who were present in 1914 when a four-mile team from oxford was here and in 1920 when a combined oxford cambridge two-mile team appeared on franklin field the 1914 race was the most sensational race that has ever been seen in this country as oxford won by a hair the 1920 race produced a new two-mile relay record though this record was ef faced from the books last season by the wonderful team which the uni versity of pennsylvania then pro duced the keenest interest will be taken in the british team and already many are asking in which shape the amerkaru colleges aire to meet this new athletic invasion of our shores it is thus reassuring to be told that the east has at least three teams — namely those from yale george town and cornell — that will give valiant battle to the english runners the west is still to be heard from but indications are that chicago kansas and other western colleges will also have fast quartettes to put into this important event the perm relays have always been the chief drawing card for the track world and with the fact that the oxford team will be here will make it all the more so harwood frost m e 93 has sent the alumni office a number of copies of a book entitled good engineering literature these will be distributed free to the mem bers of
