scoring drives as the Engineers
turned back stubborn Gettysburg, 14-6.
It was the fourth victory in
seven decisions for Lehigh which
is striving to fashion a second
straight winning campaign.
Gettysburg (3-4) came up with
another of the troublesome efforts it seems to save for Lehigh.

Lehigh's option series successfully and picked up some
good yardage keeping the ball
after faking pitchouts and hand-
off s. His totals for the day
showed 10 carries for 53 yards
and three completions in six
passing tries for 21 yards. More
important, his pitchouts to a
trailing runner resulted in big
gains by tailbacks Mark Weaver
of Allentown, Pa., and Mike
Chieco of Manhasset, N.Y., and
fullback Rob Gardner of
Maplewood, N.J.
Weaver, a freshman, was the
game's top runner with 20 carries
for 110 yards. Gardner, a
sophomore, was the bread-and-
butter runner who got most of the
tough inside yardage, carrying 24
times for 95 yards and scoring
