and franklin and mar shall were the only teams to fall before the lafayette varsity the maroon's defensive play against colgate which enabled them to hold the red raiders to 0-0 will give the brown and white team plenty of trouble the exceptionally poor showing of lehigh throughout the season coupled with the powerful defense of the maroon has made lafayette the favorite six men inexperienced

thirty-ninth victory over the brown and white tomorrow afternoon at taylor sta dium supporters of the tatemen take heart however in the thought that the lehigh-lafayette encounter is always anybody's game regardless of the records of the two teams throuhgout the season lehigh wo"h two games and lost five during the 1933 campaign scor ing 33 points to their opponents 143 the lehigh season record is as follows coach herb mccracken's mar quis eleven has played one more game than the tate team lafay ette has won two tied one and lost five of the eight games to date seventy points scored seventy points have been scored by the eastonians while 116 have been amassed by their opponents high spots of the leopard sea son were the sensational last min ute stand against n y u and the scoreless deadlock with andy kerr's colgate machine following is the lafayette sea son record only the fact that harry wright of lafayette failed to kick an ex tra point in the closing seconds of play prevented a deadlock in the lafayette-n y u game at yan kee stadium oct 14 wright had taken a pass from maas and plung ed 10 yards for lafayette's second touchdown this followed immediately after siegel n y u whipped around right end for his second touch continued on page four two freshmen who were caught breaking into the alumni building shortly after 2 o'clock yesterday morning have been expelled from the university by dean c m mc conn they were locked up in the beth lehem police headquarters wednes day night and were questioned by dean mcconn yesterday morning the university has decided not to press the case and the city police superintendent of police fred trafford stated have also drop ped the matter on being questioned by the dean concerning the motives for the deed one man asserted that he had intended to procure from the sup ply bureau certain text books which he needed for his college course and the other claimed that he had gone along for a lark pane of glass broken in order to gain entrance to the building one of the students put his fist through a pane of glass in one of the windows of the office of dr natt m emery vice president of the university this enabled the pair to unlatch the window from dr emery's office they entered the office of f r ash baugh bursar of the university and rifled the desks five dollars was missing from the cash drawer when a count was taken yesterday morning but both men denied knowledge of the theft when ques tioned after leaving the bursar's office the men attempted to rip off the locks of the door of the supply bureau while they were occupied in this manner they were discov ered by an officer of the campus police force thomas malone who was making his regular rounds the freshmen fled out the base ment door and up the hill with of ficer malone in close pursuit he fired six shots in an effort to halt them one of the fleeing men was intercepted by two members of delta upsilon fraternity earl eng lish 34 and roy reabuck 34 who had been attracted by the shooting the capture disclosed the iden tity of the other student and when the other culprit was caught both were apprehended dean gives comment the two freshmen said dean mcconn were guilty of sending insulting challenges over the tele phone to lafayette fraternities from this the inference can be made that they intended to cover up the robbery in the excitement of the invasion of the dormitories by the lafayette students in their at tempt to steal the beat lafayette banner they were deceived by a false alarm caused by several upper classmen who tied up the fresh men sentries posted to protect the banner against possible theft con sequently they took that rumpus for the arrival of the body from lafayette and began their attempt to break in thinking that the cam pus policeman would be drawn to the disturbance at the dormitories english gave this version of the capture of the culprits roy rea buck and i had just finished study ing for some exams to be

lehigh team into action against the traditional la fayette foe for the third time short captained the frosh in their game with the maroon yearlings and last season when captain hal sted was out of the

battle with rutgers when he was out from injuries sustained in the princeton game in his car eer at lehigh short has been a constant star in the brown and white backfield running passing kicking blocking and tackling with skill and dependability his brilliant running has been a constant menace to lehigh's op ponents and it would be difficult to pick out his most outstanding feat of ball toting no lehigh supporter will over forget his 45-yard run for a touchdown in the victory over princeton two years ago his kicking has been excellent and consistent many times during this season saving lehigh from im minent danger in the air his pass ing has been accurate and his fast low passes have been difficult for the opponents to block this year he has backed up the line and a major portion of the tackling has fallen to him short is also a first string la crosse player and in his freshman year he was a member of the frosh wrestling team before he came to lehigh he was a stellar

forcefully capturing the traditional victory banner from taylor hall lehigh men estimated to number 200 left the campus in 55 machines for easton at 1 o'clock this morning efforts of arcadia earlier in the evening to stop the invasion were unsuccessful one of the last groups to leave did not get beyond the city limits bethlehem police suspecting some student action halted the truck which they had rented and arrest ed its 17 passengers on charges of disorderly conduct ten other stu dents were also apprehended with in bethlehem city limits these men were later released on bail by dean c m mcconn at 12.50 each and summarily declared to be idefinitely suspended from the university clothes tearing ensues the larger group reached the lafayette campus about 1 30 a m and were met by a smaller body of lafayette students near the statue of the marquis here a rather rule less fight characterized generally by clothes-tearing was held with out serious interference from po lice another group of lehigh sup porters armed with 60 dozen eggs found several targets in the lafay ette crowd but later shifted their fire to police cars and their occu pants during the excitement centering at the statue of the marquis de lafayette the sword was broken from its hand and the hat damag ed a monumental cannon from the maroon campus was additionally claimed to be missing this morn ing fire trucks police end scrap two fire trucks and policemen who threatened the use of tear gas bombs finally brought an end to the hostilities a survey of easton and bethlehem hospitals made at the end of the melee revealed first aid attention for slight injuries but no serious cases easton police arrested 29 lehigh men on charges of disorderly con duct and jailed them until they were released on bond by bethle hem friends by 8:30 this morning these men had paid 207.50 in fines of 7.50 and 12.50 banner theft opened feud the initial action which brought about renewed hostilities between lehigh and lafayette after six years of peace began shortly after 3 a m thursday when approxi mately 125 lafayette students in 21 cars entered the lehigh campus and centered their attack on the beat lafayette banner which ex tended between the two wings of the taylor dormitory a statement from lafayette indi cates that the raid came as an an swer to dares sent to them by an apparent lehigh student who told them of the existence of the ban ner and challenged them to remove it the latter story corroborated in part a rumor that the men held in the attempted robbery of the sup ply bureau had hoped to force a lehigh-lafayette fight to cover continued on page four complete support of the 1926 ar cadia-k.r.t resolution against le high-lafayette hostilities and a restraint of any mass action against lafayette for its invasion of taylor dormitories was voted last night at an emergency meeting of arca dia in a lengthy discussion of the peace pact formulated in 1926 by arcadia and knights of the round table the lafayette senior-junior honorary society one faction of the meeting was of the opinion that la fayette had violated the resolution by invading the lehigh campus and taking the banner strung across taylor hall another group was of the opinion that the lafayette stu dent body was ignorant of the joint resolution it was pointed out that the k.r t yesterday made all efforts pos sible to avoid further trouble be tween the schools through print ing copies of the resolution and posting them on all lafayette bul letin boards one of the purposes of the meet ing was to make every living group acquainted with the resolution in order to discourage lehigh stu dents from breaking the gentle men's agreement made in 1926 possible termination of the le high-lafayette football series was hinted by officials of both schools today as a result of student rioting this week dean c m mcconn issued a statement to this effect shortly aft er he had suspended 56 lehigh stu dents who were arrested by eas ton and bethlehem police during rioting maneuvers early this morn ing the dean's statement indicates that president richards and dean arthur a hauck of lafayette con cur in favoring the termination of football rivalry in event distur bances should break out tonight or tomorrow in addition to the 56 men sus pended this morning other suspen sions are expected in the case of students who participated in the in vasion of the lafayette campus this morning the 56 suspensions made today are for a period of one week or un til after the thanksgiving holidays in addition the students have been placed on disciplinary probation for the balance of the academic year refuse bail by mcconn of the 56 men 29 were confined in the easton jail and 27 in bethle hem those jailed in this city were released at an early hour this morning on bail furnished by dean mcconn but many of the students arrested in easton were not re leased until late this morning be cause of the refusal of the easton authorities to accept dean mc conn's check a majority of the students arrest ed in easton forfeited their bail in order to attend the meeting in dean mcconn's office at 10 o'clock this morning they were scheduled to appear in an easton court at 9:30 but only a few were present bail ranged from 7.50 for the majority who were charged with disorderly conduct to 12.50 for others in the case of those who were ar rested in bethlehem bail was plac ed at 12.50 for each student sus pension from the university also faces students other than the 56 al ready banned from the campus who are alleged to have taken part in what dean mcconn today called this disgraceful riot notices of the suspensions or dered this morning were sent by special delivery today to parents and guardians of the offenders dean issues statement the dean's statement follows in full it seems to me that the stu dents who participated in this dis graceful riot have no defense of any kind and that those that have been caught and punished are en titled to no sympathy in that they defied not only the civil authorities and the university discipline but also the nearly unanimous decision of their own student governing body president richards is deter mined that this sort of fracas shall be broken up and stopped and has stated that if after a fair trial this cannot be accomplished in any other way it will be done by ter minating the series of lehigh-la fayette games dean hauck has ex pressed himself as favoring this same drastic measure if necessary offenders caught in any further disturbances tonight or on satur day must expect the same penalty imposed on those caught last night or more severe ones if the occa sion seems to warrant it bethlehem pa friday november 24 1933 price five cents the lehigh university
