teams con testing the university placed fifth in this meet last year during the last week the rifle team has had somewhat of a slump this is no doubt due to the let-down after the third corps area meet the men are now picking up and are shoot ing out the hearst trophy and the regular intercollegiate matches the hearst trophy shoot is about half over and no results have been published yet last year lehigh placed eleventh out of over 100 teams in the regular intercollegiate matches this week lehigh is shooting with seven different colleges the military department thinks there may be some high individual scores although no results have been received yet captain gadd has made some exceptional scores in the meet as was announced in last tuesday's paper the rifle meet with perm state was called off by telegram this week a let ter came explaining this action there was some difficulty in get ting transportation for the state team and as a result the meet was definitely cancelled about

night the lehigh quintet concluded a very suc cessful season in a most fitting manner beaten by the maroon in the first two games of the annual series the brown and white sharpshooters led by an expert marksman bob many one of the leading scorers in eastern intercollegiate court circles convinced themselves and their followers that the south mountain institution was represented by the better team during the current season neither lehigh nor lafayette played its best game saturday but the victors took advantage of many's brilliant shooting in the first half and concentrated on a sound defensive game in the second period as in the first half of the second series contest two weeks ago when the leopards held lehigh score less from the field geary's men limited the home team to one basket in the initial period and the victorious aggregation was outscored in the second canto the game started slowly af ter about two minutes of play many received a poke in the eye and took full time out but re mained in the game he sig nalized his return to action by tossing a long backward shot from a difficult angle while in midair for the opening score max schultz made good on a foul and captain bill billmey er sent a long shot through the meshes from the side of the court to give his team a 5-0 lead lipetz shifty and dimin utive forward of the home team made lafayette's first point and houser football end ac counted for him team's lone field goal of the half on an easy shot bennett with three per sonals was replaced by johnny blackmar and while the brown and white defense limited la fayette to five fouls many went on a scoring rampage sinking five baskets in rapid succession from difficult angles and long range billmeyer contributed a clean shot and schultz added some fouls to make the score 22-8 at half time continued on page six mike miller's men came back strong after the rest period and outscored their opponents dim merling who had replaced leis enring first found the net and mcguire made a brace of goals on dribble-ins rambo high scorer for the leopards tallied three baskets and a foul and sherwood lipetz and dimmer ling increased the count at in tervals hesse made good on a follow-up shot and bennett flipped a beautiful one from mid-court and added a foul be fore being retired via the per sonal foul route billmeyerand schultz counted double-deckers
