game was exceedingly clean ly played throughout and the fouls were pretty evenly divided among the two teams the visitors being more successful in scoring in this way owing to the clever tossing of laubach who with captain wal ton were the stars for state the playing of the whole lehigh team both in passing and goal shooting was easily the main feature of the game while the individual stars were

of the kalbfleisch co addressed the meeting on the subject of the relation of chemical industries to preparedness besides ex pressing some very interesting and substantial views on the country's present condition and diplomatic relations the speaker showed how dependent the nation is on the chemical industry the substance of his talk follows guncotton one of the most im portant explosives is made by soak ing ordinary cotton in a mixture of two fuming acids nitric acid is the most important of these two for it is this acid which nitrates the cellulose the sulphuric acid merely being used to absorb the water formed in the process if we found ourselves without nitric acid we should not even hope to engage in a single skirmish in order to make nitric acid we must have nitrate and the most plentiful source of nitrate is the saltpeter deposits of chili before the discovery of these immense de posits the chief source were beds near pekin china at present every country is dependent on chili for their nitrate supply ex cept germany the reason for this exception is that the germans have perfected the electric process for the fixation of atmospheric nitro gen although the process is 1 not a secret it has never been de veloped in this country because the chili nitre beds were ample supply now suppose that our nitrate sup ply from chili were cut off we would be helpless the only solu tion is the development of fixita tion processes it would take years to perfect such plants and would require the risking of millions of dollars continued on fifth page lehigh relay team defeats
