was the speak er of the evening lie is at present connected with the bethlehem steel works and is interested in the con struction of an electrical railway in chile south america for the pur pose of bringing down iron ore from the mountains to the shipping ports along the sea coast the iron ore derived from the two mines under consideration is exceptionally rich in the pure prod uct and would he of large value to a company such as the steel works if its transportation could be ac complished cheaply the mines are from 2000 to 2500 feet above sea level and it is the purpose to have them yield about 10,000 tons of ore per day the trouble with the heat ing of the cars due to braking is very important the project is to use the d c system at 2400 volts on the line with a maximum grade of 3 ( r . with this arrangement the trains must be stopped hall wax down the slope in order to cool off the wheels and shoes of the cars the use of the induction motor is eliminated because it is a practically constant speed motor and it takes two speeds to regenerate the single-phase system cannot be used because single-phase is not regen erative the annual inter-class track meet was held

on taylor field lehigh and perm state played to a twelve inning tie last friday afternoon darkness ended the game which had resolved itself into a pitchers battle the score standing three all continued on second page perm state earned its runs in the first and second innings but was presented with the one in the third inning on fishburn's error le high's runs resulted directly from home runs one being made with a man on base it was in the second inning after lees had drawn a pass that albrecht made a pretty drive to left field for the circuit bringing lees in and t icing the score in the third inning state scored again on an error and keady again evened up the score for lehigh by dropping the ball over the right field fence for another home run from this time on the game was a pitchers battle between llesselbacker for slate who had taken leibert's place on the mound and anderson for lehigh anderson pitched a great game striking out thirteen of the up-state collegians and allowing comparatively few hits and walking only one man the fielding in the latter part of the game on lehigh's part was spectacular in several in stances lees chenoweth and fish burn featuring for state craw y m c a meeting dunn mayer buck and jay do good work on the attack for lehigh another championship was won by the brown and white last sat urday when the lehigh lacrosse team won from swarthmore by the score of 5 to 2 this victory gives lehigh the championship of the southern division of the inter collegiate lacrosse league the game itself was a strenuous one several of the players on both sides receiving injuries at the be ginning of the game both teams played cautiously and it was a diffi cult matter to predict which twelve would come off the field victorious it was near the end of the first half that jay shot the first goal of the game for lehigh this seemed to instil new life into the game and swarthmore soon had a goal to her credit soon after this dunn scored another goal for lehigh and the orsi half ended with the score standing 2 to 1 in lehigh's favor in the second half lehigh proved her superiority by making three goals to swarthmore's one with two substitute players in the game these three goals were made by jay buck and mayer and resulted from the brown and white players taking the garnet twelve off their feet by the vigorous work of the at tack men and close playing of the defense it is now 7 thought that lehigh has an excellent chance for the ameri can championship as she has de feated teams which have been vic torious over some of the leaders in
