Students, Alumni Psyched To 'Level The Leopards'
By George L. Beezer
Lehigh University Writers Group
In a surprising change from past years, approximately
150 tickets remain available for Lehigh fans wishing to see
the 124th Lehigh-Lafayette game, which starts at noon
Saturday at Fisher Field, Easton.
Craig Anderson, a veteran of 20 years as business
manager for athletics, said he can't remember any time that
so many tickets remained unsold. He said anyone who wants
tickets can obtain them at a cost of $12 each in the athletic
ticket office in Taylor Gymnasium until noon Friday.
Anderson said the sluggish ticket sales were caused by
the fact that "alumni orders are down." Generally speaking,
Anderson said, there is greater demand for tickets with the
Lehigh group when the game is played at home. It is believed, he said, that the inconvenience of tailgating on Easton
streets near Lafayette is not as desirable to Lehigh alumni as
joining their friends in lots specified for the purpose on their
home campus.
The game-the most-played collegiate rivalry in the
nation—is usually a sell-out. Fisher Field customarily holds
14,000, which is about the same as Lehigh's Murray H.
Goodman Stadium. However, additional temporary seats are
always installed for the game, which is the last of the season.
This year, approximately 4,000 seats have been added,
Some tickets remain for Saturday's 124th
renewal of Lehigh-Lafayette rivalry
according to Lafayette ticket manager George Davidson, who
also said Lafayette had tickets available.
At Lehigh, undergraduates have a wide range of pregame
events and entertainment from which to choose. The principal
sponsor is the Student Activities Council, and no alcohol will
be available at any of the functions. In lieu of alcohol,
mocktails-concoctions that look and taste like cocktails but
have no alcohol-will be available at a special mocktail party
in Club 31 at 5 P.M. Friday.

Campus Food Drive On
Through Nov. 22
Three Lehigh student groups are coordinating a campus
food drive Nov. 14-22 to help the less fortunate residents of
the Lehigh Valley. The campus campaign is part of the
city-wide "Feed a Neighbor" food drive.
Lehigh's Hillel Society and Interfraternity and
Panhellic Councils are coordinating the University drive.
Drop-off boxes for food donations will be located by the
student mailboxes on the second floor of the University
Center and in the lobby of Building A on the Mountaintop
Campus.
Bethlehem Mayor Kenneth R. Smith has proclaimed
the month of November "Feed a Neighbor Month." In
issuing his proclamation, he urged all citizen to donate food
items to the campaign, "recognizing that Thanksgiving Day
serves to remind us of our blessings and to share the bounty
of the harvest" with neighbors who haven't been as
fortunate.
The local groups benefitting from the food drive
include the Fourth Street Meal Center, the Trinity Episcopal
Soup Kitchen, New Bethany Ministries, the Southeast
Neighborhood Center and the Salvation Army.
The groups have requested non-perishable food,
particularly high protein and dinner items such as: tuna,
canned fish and meats; peanut butter; jams and jellies;
packaged, non-perishable one-dish dinners; pasta and rice;
sauces; canned fruits and vegetables; and fruit and vegetable
juices.
In addition to Lehigh, other groups co-sponsoring the
food drive are St. Luke's Hospital, the South Side Merchants Association, Lehigh Valley Bank and the city.
