prof mckibben section a taylor hall — prof fogg section b taylor hall mr j s irwin brauerei — prof reynolds it is hoped that from next week on speakers will be obtained for ever fraternity and section in the dormitories several fraternities and two sections in taylor hall were not represented at the first meeting in which the plans for these weekly meetings were dis cussed but all have signified their intention of entering into the plan contrary to general opinion these meetings are not of a religious nature vital subjects that come up in every student's life are dis cussed and the opportunity is given to benefit from the broader and maturer opinions of older men brauerei=section b football game a tie association gives combination gettysburg and perm state smoker noted speakers j m clark of perm rev byron and coach barron of state on program the gettysburg-perm state y m c a smok r wii be held in taylor gym at eight o'clock to night this affair marks the second annual y m (', a smoker and from present indications bids fair to eclipse the very successful one held last year a glance at the program of speakers is enough to insure a pleasant evening for every one pipes and tobacco will further help to enliven the occasion the pipes this evening will be a departure from the missouri meerschaums which are usually handed out at the smokers j m clark a popular upper classman of the univ of pa will speak on the friendly relations ex isting between ij of p and lehigh he is managing editor of the penn sylvanian the college newspaper and a member of phi beta kappa

close friendship between perm state and lehigh other speakers will include prof j l stewart bosey reiter tom keady and donald wynne 16 president of the y m c a although it is not yet a certainty it is likely that there will be a big sur prise in store at the smoker this evening muisc will be rendered through out the evening by the university band y m c a meeting for next sunday last home game for lehigh for two weeks tomorrow afternoon new back field keady and halstead out of lineup j places taken by heuer and boland tomorrow afternoon on taylor field the brown and white team will line up against the gettysburg college representatives no infor mation as to the outcome of the con test can be obtained through com parative scores as the teams have had none of the same opponents the outcome will however throw a little light on our game with perm state on the fifth of november as gettysburg through brilliant team work was able to hold perm state to a 27 to 12 score the gettysburg scores to date are as follows : gettysburg 0 cornell 13 gettysburg 19 w maryland 0 gettysburg 0 army 22 gettysburg 12 perm state . . 27 gettysburg 18 st johns 0 totals 49 62 there will be a decided change in lehigh s backfield because keady will be unable to play on account of a bad shoulder and halstead will be out with a wm anl eeuer will take keady s place at right halfback w t hile maginnes will be | put in at fullback and either bo land or twombly will fill the left halfback position twombly who has been in college three years has never been con nected with the football squad until just recently he has however had football experience in the med ford mass high school in 1912 he was all-scholastic quarterback of boston the probable line-ups are : lehigh gettysburg green 1 c emanuel

of year in williams hall thursday students speak m w kresge's subject military engineering l mardaga on surface condenser the firsi meeting of the mechani cal engineering society was held thursday october 28th in wil liams ball m w kresge 16 gave an interesting talk on mili tary engineering and l mar daga 16 presented a well written paper on the design of a surface condenser mr kresge's talk dealt with his experiences in connection with en gineer companies at the students military instruction camps recently a national security program was inaugurated which makes use of the american engi neering societies as part of its scheme for national preparedness accordingly they have had com mittees elected by each of the five principal engineering societies — american institute of electrical engineers american society of consulting engineers american society of civil engineers ameri can institute of mining engineers and the american society of me chanical engineers it is the pur pose of these committees to submit to the proper authorities for filing complete lists of all of the engineers in the country with the work in which they respectively are occu pied so that in case of w tar they can be used where best fitted the question now arises as to just what part these engineers would.l play in actual warfare according to a physical classification w te would naturally associate civil engineers with bridge and railroad construction electricals with the signal corps mining engineers with.mines trenches and demoli tions and we mechanicals with the rapid and economic manufacture of the implements of warfare and sufficient transportation for these munitions while to the consulting engineers would be left all prob lems demanding a general practi cal knowledge there are two distinct kinds of service which engineers might render and with this in view the subject is divided into two classes of engineering field engineering and base engineering field engineering is interesting and somewhat unique many of its methods are crude yet when the results are considered these methods have proved practical and concise enough for rapid work the work of a company or battalion of field engineers falls generally under three headings permanent in trenehments and their accessories such as mined obstacles and so forth which are used in the defense of an important position : bridges railways and roads and the means tt rapid and complete demolition of these and reconnaissance work which includes field outpost and road sketching permanent fortifications consist essentially of 1 trenches for the tiring line fire trenches 2 trenches for the supports and re serves cover trendies 3 shel tered communications between the supports and firing line communi cation trenches 4 obstacles con sisting of mines and barbed wire entanglements continued on fourth page a meeting of berks county me will be held tomorrow afternoon at 1.30 p m in drown hall berks county

misplays and penalties neither team was strong on the offensive time and time again losing the ball on downs or by fumbles each goal was threatened but once during the game in the second quarter section b was within eight yards of the goal line but there fumbled and recovering the ball attempted a drop kick which was easily blocked in the last quarter die alte brauerei reached the nine yard line but there by misplays lost the ball to section b who immedi ately kicked it out of danger hautz and thompson did the best work for the brauerei while doushkess and read made the ground gains for

civils last tuesday and wednesdi y mornings dr ! ooley formerly a member of the facility delivered il lusi rai e i lectures on grecia □ and j roman a rchiteel mv in the < bourse of construction in the civil engi ae ring depart ment the tuesday lecture dealt with ii re ian archited are and followed that given the preceding week on egyptian architecture by prof mekibben in the first of the two lectures dr cooler first pointed out the im portance architecture should hold in the estimate of the engineer this was later brought out by views showing the details and methods of construction used by the ancients under greek architecture the materials used were first considered these included stone mostly lime stone marbles and sandstone , mud bricks wood terra cotta tiles and facings bronze iron and lead no mortar or cement was used in bond ing the masonry in the architecture itself the greeks had a fine and honest style they used the arch very little and did not know its constructive value from all indications the masonry used consisted of three styles namely cyclopean a rough and un coursed style polygonal a style having many angles and ashlar mud bricks were often used above a solid foundation of stone the temples were the principal architectural works of the greeks and gave rise to three well known greek orders of architecture namely doric lonic and corin thian dr oooley contrasted the three orders and showed many views of temples illustrating the orders following a short history of the construction of the temples the methods of construction of the temples were shown in detail among the views shown during the lecture were : the sini gate wall of mantineia grotto of apollo at delos athenian treasury at del phi hera ion temple at olympia columns at syracuse and at corinth unfinished temple at segesta and several views of the parthenon wednesday's lecture was a con tinuation of the preceding subject and was also partly devoted to the study of roman architecture the lonic style of greek archi tecture originated in lonia or what is now western asia minor many of the most beautiful temples of greece depend upon this order for their splendor the characteristics of the style are the high slender columns and the handsomely carved bases a peculiar idea of symetry in decoration is shown in the fact j that the buildings especially the j temples which are generally rect angular have one more than twice i as many columns on the side as on the front these columns are often magnificent pieces of work when i small being carved from a solid i piece of stone sometimes the ordi nary pillar is replaced by a human figure the majority of the temples have been ruined in the course of time but many of them have been rebuilt from the foundations the propy laia which is the gateway io the akropolis and is a combination of doric and lonic architecture was built by pericles and is estimated to ; have cost about two million dollars continued on second page the
