down the river rivals to submit to a 2-0 de feat last saturday the game was played on march field which was in excellent con dition after the previous day's rain and was witnessed by a large and enthusiastic crowid a special train carried some 200 brown and white rooters to east on and what they lacked in numbers they made up for in cheering as they com pletely drowned out their maroon and white opponents in the ad jacent stands saturday's contest was an en tirely different affair from that of five days before as the playing throughout was of the best with little umpire baiting and no un sportsmanlike playing which was in evidence in the first game johnson who was again coach keadiy's mound choice was at his best and was master of the situa tion at all times allowing only five hits two of which were of the scratch variety his two-base hit into the center field stands 1 also started the batting rally in the third which spelled victory for le high moyer who finished tuesday's game proved a worthy opponent for swede and with the excep tion of three hitsi bunched off him in the fatal third he pitched air tight ball and forced nine brown senior roster for examinations the senior

enthusiasm for the lafayette game k m bevier opened the meeting prof bowen then made a short appeal to have every lehigh man get in college and show the old beat lafayette pep bosey eeiter then gave one of his inimitable talks which kindled the spark of enthusiasm that burst into flame at the game ken bevier following the remarks of prof bowen offered a prescription for the reestablishing of college life and customs special emphasis was laid on having every man study the epitome from cover to cover and to know who's who and what s what in college ' ' lafayette has fallen — and this despite the admonition in the last issue of the lafayette to get them again saturday the game last saturday restored the series to a state of equilibrium and it will be the share of lehigh supporters to see to it that the balance swings in the right direction next satur day the deciding game of the le high-laf ayette series will be played next saturday on taylor field and it would not be logical at all to sacrifice the last game through thoughtlessness and carelessness when everything is in our favor we should be animated still more and appear at this last game in force still greater at lafayette many things were in our disfavor — we had lost the preceding game we were on a strange field and we could not lo cate our cheering section in the most advantageous position this is all gone now and we should not be so inflated that overconfidence will bring us to defeat the scores of both games played so far show a neck to neck struggle but last saturday's game was un doubtedly to be taken as the cri terion when the playing of the re spective teams is to be considered whereas the first game resulting in lehigh's defeat was a rank comedy of errors the game in which lehigh was victorious was virtually an errorless game both teams played better ball it is not inconsistent to hold that lehigh's varsity having shown up as the better team in the game where both teams appeared in the pink of condition should romp away with the eastonians self complacency in the course of the next game it is certainly not inconsistent with the laws of the universe if we lose but we should not lose through lack of proper attendance and support should we put every effort into the game and lose w : e should have little cause for regret for we know that we are not in vincible but if this last game is de liberately threw away by some idolaters in our midst who worship the godsi of sleep and learning too continued on third page arcadia meeting new bulletins frosh banquet full of pep
