who was tackled behind the line by burke fordham's only score came as the result of a fumble by lehigh a recovery and dash of 92 yards for a touchdown by graham the visitor's quarterback scoop ing up a fumble on his own b yard line graham evaded the ew lehigh tacklers that were in his path and set sail for le high's goal walker and brown gave chase and just as walker was about to tackle graham from behind he very cleverly changed his course throwing walker off his stride and scored easily with the exception of the first live minutes of play lehigh played indifferent football at times the brown and white showed flashes of form and a smooth running machine but for the most part they lacked the dash and drive which char acterizes the opening minutes of the game the aerial attack which gained so much ground against rutgers last week was poor and it was not until the latter part of the third quarter that lehigh completed her first successful forward pass charlie prior playing his

very interesting lecture last thursday evening at the moravian college chapel dr fisher is professor of pol itical economy at yale univer sity dr fisher gave four special reasons for the league which are of a selfish nature to the united states and several al truistic ones upon these prin ciples he expanded and ex plained his arguments to un derstand the situation some ex planation is necessary at the present state of af fairs a supreme council exists in which all nations are repre sented within this council is the higher council of five per manent members this higher council is the highest and most powerful of the league of na tions at present there are but four members great britain japan italy and france the united states would make the fifth power in this higher council an action or bill must be unanimous in order to go in to effect that is if there are four votes in favor of an action and one against the one vote acts as a veto at present fifty four nations are represented in the league the first reason is this if the united states does not enter the league it has no power to except that of armament have a say in league affairs if how ever the united states does en ter the league it has the power to veto any action unfavorable to america and thus avoid con flict at present europe is heavily in debt the case of austria is an explanatory example of the second reason the present league on petition of austria gave that country financial aid enabling it to stabilize its cur rency the aid was not strict ly in the form of a loan but a,n extention of credit thus permit ting austria to resume trade re lations and hence helping that country to pay off her debt the second reason then is that the united states by enter ing the league will help to aid continued on page
