Lafayette Defeats Lehigh;
Another Saturday Surprise
Special to The Telegraph

South Bethlehem, Pa, Nov. %. -
Lafayette returned to Easton last
night with Lehighs football scalp
The score of n wonderful game played
in the presence of 5000 persons was
Lafayette 35, Lehigh, 6. It was the
first time in four years that the
Maroon and White has been able &c
taste the sweet results of victory and
Easton is wild with joy. In the Beth
lehem's camp that marked mourning
crepe is exhausted.
To Lafayette must be given al
kinds of credit for the victory EN-
cept for a few instances her men out
played Lehigh. However, coupled
with Lafayettes good playing and
generalship. the Maroon and White
were alert and every time a Lehigh
man fumbled at a critical moment q
LAFAYETTE player was there to gobblc
up the ball.
Four of Lafayette's five touchdownS
were the direct result of forward
passes while the other was accounted
for through Gulick's recovery of =
blocked kick. The Lafayette team has
a great variety of new plays and yes
terday was the first time that they
showed their hand.

Phillie monarchs of the National
League, was rosed out of the premier
batting honors for the 1915 season,
official averages of which are an
nounced to-day. Larry Doyle, veteran
of the New York Giants, romped away
with the swatting laurels. The .32U
compiled by Doyle was good enough to
nose out Luderus. who had set the
pace for more than half of the sea-
son. Luderus was the runner up with
a .315.
Against fifteen 800 or better hitters
in 1914 the National League produced
only five select swatsmen in 1915. In
addition to Doyle and Luderus. Tom
Griffith of Cincinnati: Bill Hinchman
of Pittsburgh and Jake Daubert, of
Brooklyn, alone were able to maintain
800 or better pace. Griffith and
Henchman tied for third place, each
registering .S07 and Daubert leader

eleven is headed toward the biggest

sporting calcndar-that with the Uni
versity of Pittsburgh in the Smoky
City on Thanksgiving day. Victories
over Lehigh, Lafayette, and Pennsyl-

look pretty good to States support
ers, but above all other contests, State
wants to defeat Pitt to make the 1915
season the best the Blue and White
has ever had.
Coach Harlow is working with
might and main to whip the team in
to shape for the annual battle. He
realizes that the Warnerites are one
of the strongest teams in the coun-
try this year. To expect a victory on
Thursday against the powerful Pitt
eleven, Harlow says would be idle.
He wants to offer his team in the best
possible condition, so that Penn State
makes at least a creditable showing.

score will not be one-sided. The local

The eleven struck it's stride in the

E HIM COUGH UP

Everybody wants to see better country roads around here, and those
who live off of the community should do their share toward its upkeep,
either through local taxation Or by voluntary contribution.
Our local business M have dug down into their pockets again
and again for all sorts of 1audable objects in the way of contributions
to this, that and whatnot, and they will probably continue to dig as
long as they remain in business.
Like the good old Jersey cow, they have been "mlked' S o long
and so often and for such varied purposes that digging has become
almost second nature o them.
But there is n "a who is rolling IN wealth that has been gather
ed in from the rural districts, and that man has yet to make his first
dig. AT any rate n one appears to have ever heard of him cont1but
ing a single penny for the alienation of local conditions.
He is the mail order man, and it is high time for him to dig.
Many of you have been sending him your money for these many
order that he and mis- may ride in expensive automobiles and wear rich
furs, laces and diamonds.
He counts his wealth by the millions, all contributed by his dear
friends" from the country districts. A few hundreds to him would be
but a drop lin the bucket, yet it would meal much to you if expended in
improving the roads that you must travel in earning your daily bread.
Now suppose each n ofy you good people who have beer handing
your hard earned money v to the mail order man n the past just
write him a letter and tell him your roads are sadly in need Of repairs.
Just tell him that when the rain come the mud IS deep, and traffic Is
difficult, and it is had for you to earn the golden dollars that go to
swell the great wealth he can w spend.
Tell him that you have been his friend in tine past. Now ask hra
to prove his mette by becoming your friend in the present, with a few
hundreds for better roads.
Ask him to dig" and dig deeply. If he is your frhnd-f he cares
a rap for you-he will dig. But if he thinks only OF what h e can squeeze
out of you, he won't dig.
Write him today, and SCI if he digs.
But in the meantime, just remember that responsible merchants are
advertising in this paper this week, and other weeks, and that they
will duplicate the goods sold by the dgless mail order mn quality tor
quality and dollar for dolar-and ave you the freight O express.
Show your loyalty by supporting the dealer who supports you and

MANY TITLES MAXI A MUCH

How would you like to sit down at your desk, u ver your ac-
counts, and absorb the knowledge that anywhere from n to five
hundred people we're indebted to you in suns from 50 cents to $500?
And how would you like to meet those good people day by day
without their eve thinking OF offering you the small amount due you?
And how would you like to see these amt good people paying
their other bills promptly month by month and again forgetting yours?
And wouldn't you just revel in the knowledge that all of these
small amounts combined, if suddenly collected up, would swell your
bank account to the tune of $500 or $1,000?
When you reach the point where you can appreciate the grim
humor of such a condition, and keep right o smiling, you will have
qualified yourself for the life OF a country editor.
And when you reach that point you will wonder why in
