marks of an early scheduled con test lehigh took a game from the muhlenberg basketball quintet wednesday evening by a 43-20 score the game started with a deluge of ragged playing that was broken here and there by a few snappy plays that showed the team was rapidly rounding into form green jumping center for muhlenberg repeatedly fouled on the tossup which enabled him to get the jump on wysocki for some reason the referee did not call him until the second half and then wy was able to even the toss this factor seemed to help and lehigh played a much better game the second period although the passing was poor and there was continual foul ing the team showed up well and gave good promise for the lafa yette game on saturday jimmy straub had his eye on the basket during the entire game and scored repeatedly from both floor and the foul line frytag had a bad knee and this prevented mm from doing his best work green at center played a igood game for mluhlenberg he made several nice shots

interior will strict ingly show the wonderful reeojßr eeojb made by lehigh s sons and m«p necessarily be put to such use ash>o automatically place this record be fore the eyes of the largest possible number of people to acomplish the first i,^^-p'ro posed to have a great entrance hall in the form of a rotunda lighted from above and with a gallery on the second floor level in the center of this room which must be of im pressive dimensions will stand a symbolical figure as a monument to the many lehigh men who gave their lives for their country that is to say for us round the walls could be bronze bas-reliefs of each man wiio made the supreme sacri fice and bronze tablets carrying the name and branch of service of every man who wore the uniform special tablets giving the records of the men who won decorations by their valor battle-field trophies and perhaps hanging fromj the gallery silken banners of all the allied nations would complete a room into which no one could step without an instant appreciation of its meaning and intent also on the first floor adjacent to this entrance hall should be a great room devoted to the avar records of lehigh men in civil life scores of great plants engaged in manufacturing the mu nitions of war were headed by le high men and in every branch of war industry — mining transporta tion ship-building manufacturing ■ — were lehigh men by the thous ands pictures of the plants and records of what they did samples of the guns shells airplane and motor truck parts models of ves sels and in fact dozens of exhibits showing in concrete form what was the part lehigh men played would fill this room in it would also be in readily accessible form the record of every lehigh man who aided by his daily work the service of supply for our army and navy or in any way played a real part in helping to win the war continued on fourth page to accomplish the second object it is only necessary to place in this building the executive and adminis
