...regularly paid workingmen for half their third year in the Engineering School. While one is off in some machine shop, electrical department, or plant akin to his professional line, another is spending two months of intensive class-room work.

The next three games, however, will give the Blue and White a still better chance to prove its power. Next Saturday they meet the giant Nebraska "Cornhuskers," who are considered the heaviest eleven in the country, without an exception. Lehigh follows the Westerners in an extremely arduous schedule. Later, they meet...
