of the old-time rivalry le high lost to lafayette by a 27-23 score at easton saturday night from the first blast of the referee s whistle until the end the game was marked with all the speed and fight that is characteristic of a le high-lafayette contest the lehigh team due to its system and team-work played ex ceptionally well in the first period and a large part of the time the ball was around lafayette's goal tallin's ability to shoot won le high two goals from the floor which w r ere immediately duplicated by bieber and bobbe of lafayette with the result that the first half ended with the*score only 13-11 in favor of the opponents in the second period the lafa yette quintet began to mofc mp and the game became rougher with quite a few falls to add to the ex citement lehigh got two more goals from the floor and lafayette got five nevertheless the playing w r as close and it was only due to their fast individual playing that the opponents finally won with the score of 27-23 during the game a large number of fouls were made mostly for holding and running with the ball and the total of the points scored in this way was large the brown and white team was seriously weakened by the loss of captain wysocki who was unable to play on account of his arm in jured during the football season a peculiarity of the game was the fact that no substitutions were made on either team

aiming artillery pieces mr morris brought with him many specimens as well as blue prints and photographs with which he illustrated his talk he com menced with a brief description of the ; nuking of iron in the blast fur nace the further refining process of the converter and the open hearth for the manufacture of steel this process is practically the same for all the steel made but it is from the pouring into the in got and the further operations that the manufacture is divided into special groups such as rail making and structural steel ordnance and armor plate manufacture soon after the steel had been poured into the ingot mould solidi fication of the outer surface occurs which establishes a fixed envelope for the molten steel within as this inner part cools it shrinks and causes the typical pipe found in both ends of all steel ingots pipe occurs in the ends of the ingots as an irregular depression often reaching far into the ingot and it derives its name probably from the fact that when an ingot goes through the rolls in the bloom ing mills this flaw is stretched out to a great length and appears as a pipe-like hollow space running lengthwise with the ingot another peculiarity of ingot which has to be met is what is called segregation drillings in an ingot show a varying and in creased carbon content in the part which cooled last which part sur rounds the pipe there is also a higher percentage content of sul phur and phosphorus at this place in the ingot such a segregation is due to these elements being thrown out of solution by the solidifying metal and being concentrated in the part last to cool for armor plate very large in gots are necessary these are made in special molds which artificially cause the pipe to occur in a pro jection at the top this projection is used to hold the ingot when it is to eliminate the pipe and the secregation steel from entering into the finished product it is necessary to cut off from 9 to 25 of the top of the ingot and discard it and for the gun and armor plate steel up to 30 is discarded this is one of the reasons for the high cost of armor plate continued on third page best 1000=word composition to command 300
