exhibition in the first half of the perm state game on saturday night the basketball team changed apparent defeat into victory in the second winning out by the score of 24 to 16 except at the end the visitors had the advan tage during the first half but in the second period the effect of their four previous games from tuesday to friday became evident and they were not fresh enough to stand the pace almost immediately after the whis tle blew herman scored first for state and for fifteen minutes the home team was on the run their shooting was inaccurate their pass ing ineffective and their unity as a team destroyed the state men on the other hand were at their best in this half funston and herman being especially good on long shots the score varied 3—5 5—5 6—ll 7—13 9—13 with state in the lead dur ing this half anderson street davies keife and reed each secured a goal while funston and herman had two apiece to their credit the team had somewhat recovered from its demoralization during the last few minutes of the first half and with the start of the second this return to its usual form was com plete a remarkable improvement in team work both on the attack and defense soon transformed the aspects of the contest four goals in rapid succession by captain an derson put us in the lead by four points which keife troutman and davies increased to ten the closer guarding of the state men by keife davies and street also prevented them from shooting and kept the ball near our basket a long throw by funston and a successful at tempt on a foul by herman repre sent the visitors total points in this half considering the work of the in dividual players anderson and keife for lehigh and herman and fun ston for state were the most con sistent performers the other men on each team were however not far behind toward the end of the sec ond half anderson sprained his ankle but although limping badly stayed in the game until the end the attendance was even larger than at the swarthmore game and all available space was more than filled eleven fouls were called on lehigh and seven on state the lineup lehigh 24 state 16 anderson . . . forward herman troutman . . forward
