students alum ni and friends of the university as customary the alma mater was sung in closing the exercises in introducing the speaker of the day mr richard watson gilder dr drinker said truly the passages from eccles iasticus which have just been read contain a fitting introduction to the cermonies of this day " let us now praise famous men such as did bear rule in their kingdoms men renowned for their power giving counsel by their understanding and declaring pro phecies their bodies are buried in peace but their name liveth for evermore what could better epitomize the record of asa packer than these words — so pregnant of broad mean ing surely he bore rule in the kingdom he built up and in this his industrial kingdom he wielded greater power for infinitely greater good than many a lesser potentate of old of kingly distinction he was a man of good counsel and his founding of lehigh on the broad liberal basis of culture on which he placed the institution showed a prophetic insight wonderful in a man of self culture untrained in what the world generally deems necessary to education but of rare good judgement and broad toler ance a man winning his way as judge packer did to wealth and power by lines of work purely mechanical and technical in their beginnings might have been ex pected to over estimate the value of what has been termed practical education but he was broad enough to see that the institution he found ed to do its best work in this com munity and country of busy ener getic americans should have that infusion of culture coming from a study of the humanities and so from the foundation of this univer sity our literary courses have been steadily maintained on a high basis of efficiency and have done their appointed work in giving to lehigh that measure of liberal culture so necessary to the rounding out of the educated man of our day what ever may be his special bent or aim in life surely those of us alumni and students of lehigh who repre sent her technical side would resent the thought that the old-time so called learned professions-theology the law-medicine-and their kin should have a monopoly of culture and lehigh has ever stood for this principle it is therefore with peculiar continued on second page following this relay race the crowd surged over to the base ball diamond where each class was well represented in rooting as well as in numbers the freshmen has de cidedly the better of the arguments because they had the better team winning out 6to 1 snyder while erratic at times was also not pro perly supported basson'l2 pitch

1911 while heist patch and king played well for 1912 continued on third page the last hard practice before the rutgers game took place on wednesday afternoon besides t lie men who were out for the class teams there was material for two full elevens and a large number of subs titutes all candidates for the five outer positions center guard and tackle were called out at 2.00 and for half an hour were given instruction in defense work the tackles especi ally were shown the different methods of breaking up line bucks and tackle plays following this the two teams were lined up and put through signals for an hour coach dickson paid particular attention to the varsity backfield striving to j>erfect each formation and making sure that each man was in his right position as it was run off a number of new plays were practiced so that the team will be able to present a much more varied style of play to rutgers than to stevens the last hour was given to a scrimmage which proved to be the sharpest and fastest of the year the forward pass was used success fully a few times but the varsity by no means showed its ability to recover a fumbled ball much of the time was used in trying the new plays at times these worked to advantage but the men had not yet learned to make them sure three touchdowns were scored by the varsity donaldson intercepted a forward pass and ran sixty yards for a touchdown later he scored another around the scrub's left end brumbaugh also kept up his batt ing average adding a third the scrub's failed to score shorkley was given a try at center and played so well that indications point to his starting the game sat urday in that position archer aman and spiers were kept out of the scrimmage through slight in juries a osbourne and swope were in the scrimmage for the first time both playing ends the team showed more ginger than in any scrimmage yet but they must show a great deal more to win from rutgers by a comfortable score signal practice
