but the basketball fans are beginning to measure up lehigh's chance for a championship team this season special attention is attracted by the fact that manager f s mitman 23 has arranged a game with the university of toronto along with his regular schedule the univer sity of toronto has in the past had crack teams and it will be quite an achievement to beat them and in so doing even up the defeat the soccer team suffered at their hands a few weeks ago the main reason for the hopeful outlook lies in the fact that the en tire squad as it appeared on the floor at the end of last season will be back for the coming season this will give the team quite an ad vantage and should prove a great factor in producing a champion ship team the schedule as announced by manager f s mitman 23 in cludes

which will present the stiff est opposition and prove the mettle of the veteran team are lafayette rutgers and washington and jef ferson the veteran members of last year's squad include captain lingle harper snyder springsteen hen schen hartung and ex-captain lees captain lingle without a doubt will hold down the position of forward and will direct the team from that position it will be re membered that lingle in the early part of the present football season broke his collar-bone and has been continued on page four after four weeks of hard train ing the cross-country team experi enced its first

sensational attack which literally rushed their oppo nents off their feet the lehigh soc cer artists defeated the university of pennsylvania junior varsity by a score of 3 to 2 on saturday af ternoon the feature of the game was the clever teamwork and pass ing of the lehigh forward line which time after time broke com pletely through the red and blue defense the brown and white flashy cen ter forward fernandez was easily the individual star of the encounter not only was he responsible for le high's three tallies but he several times broke through the opposing fullback line and only fast work on the part of anderson prevented ad ditional scores the day was almost ideal for soc cer and the play was fast and furi ous the halfback defense of nei ther team prevented the passing of the ball and the play alternated from one end of the field to the other notwithstanding the early hour at which the contest was play one o'clock a fairly large crowd was present to cheer the lehigh team on to victory the game was played at this hour in order to per mit the players and spectators to witness the brown-lehigh football game later in the afternoon lehigh was first to score when after carrying the ball through the perm defense fernandez shot the ball in the net on a pass from franko five minutes later fernandez got possession of the sphere in midfield and without any aid passed the red and blue backs and scored again the last score seemed to awaken the perm team and they began a spirited attack which ended in their scoring their first tally mclaugh lin driving the ball into the net af ter brewer had made several sen sational stops the half ended soon after with the score 2 to 1 in le high's favor in the second half the play was very even each team counting once lehigh on a

when presented the brown and white went down to defeat to brown university last saturday in what proved to be the most bitterly fought contest on taylor field this season not until the final whistle were the bruins sure of their mea ger victory 6to 2 three times in the final period lehigh had the ball within striking distance but the im pregnable defense of the visitors proved too strong for the lehigh plungers and brown always took the ball on downs on one occa sion after storer recovered a fum ble on brown's 6-yard line greer on four rushes was unable to plunge the distance for a score lehigh had a distinct advantage in the opening period each team's punting to size up the other it was in this period that storer pulled an on-side kick with henschen receiv ing the plucky little quarterback carrying the ball to brown's 15-yard line but a double pass was attempt ed which proved too slow and stor er was thrown for a 10-yard loss this coupled with a bad pass by springsteen robbed lehigh of the first chance to score the honors of the second period went to the providence collegians it was in this period that the bruin onians put over the only touchdown of the game storer punted to ei senberg who carried the ball to le high's 30-yard line freddy sweet the mainstay of the brown team who has starred in every game this season was rushed into the game and taking the ball squirmed through the line for a 13-yard gain eisenberg on the next play on a fake-pass play frequently used by harvard carried the ball the re maining distance for a score gu lian missed the goal the whole of the second half was all in favor of lehigh the period was opened by an aerial attack by lehigh and after walker had blocked a punt the ball was carried to brown's 17-yard line things pointed to a sure score when sweet messed up hopes by intercepting a forward pass on his 1-yard line and immediately punted out into the safety zone again in the fourth period a forward pass carried the ball to brown's 18-yard line but the ball went to brown on downs it was at this point that eisenberg fumbled on his 6-yard line but suc cessive plunges by greer failed to carry the ball across a bad pass to sweet on the next play caused him to fall on the ball behind his goal-line being immediately held by burke for lehigh s 2-point score the game was hard-fought and clean so clean in fact that not a single penalty was imposed on ei ther team football relations with brown after being severed for more than twenty years should be re-assumed in the light of the clean sportsmanlike contest which the visitors played it is hard to pick out individual continued on page three notice any address changes should be reported to the circulation mana ger j c swartley 24 at the sig ma phi epsilon house bell
