INDUSTRIAL RESEARCH
- SYMPOSIUM IS LISTED
Various Entertainments Arranged
for Visiting Women-F. A. J. Fitz
Gerald Elected President.

The technical engineer, somewhere
downstairs" is the man who makes a
buslness-of which the head may be
and usually is a lawyer or banker
worth running" according to Law
renee Addicks of New York, retiring
president of the American Electro
three-day general meeting at the New
Willard Hotel this morning.
'The European war is giving op-
portunity for the mecha nical and chem
ical engineer to take his proper posi-
tion in the active direction of the af-
fairs of mankind to which his accom-
plishments entitle him, but which he
has allowed others to usurp, said Mr..
Addicks, in his presidential address,
following the annual business meeting
at $3.50 O'Clock. and prophesied
changed attitude toward the engineer
ing profession in the near future
"The great question is whether the
engineer will rise fully equal to MS op-
portunity." he said. ITO do this ne
must, first of all. lay aside all narrow
sectarianism. Then he must broaden
his interests and not remain satsned
with the purely technical aspects of the
problems which present themselves. but
study and grasp their larger economic
significance. Finally. he must not rest
content with acting in merely adv1-
sorry capacity in the affairs of business,
but have the self-confidence TO see his
work through from laboratory TO factory,
+ ON factory to market. at home or
abroad. and. if necessary, from market to
the economic situation beyond.
Mr.. Addicks expressed the opinion
that engineers should let their collec-
tive voice be heard by taking an active
part in Legislative hearings and ofer-
ing suggestions or protests on public

LEHIGH MEN EXPECT
TO DEFEAT LAFAYETTE

South Bethlehem, Penn, Nov. PA
certain feeling Of confidence pervades
Lehigh's football camp tonight, on the
eve Of the fftieth football game with
Lafayette. Contrary 10 expectations,
there was no let-up to the practice this
afternoon. In former years Coach
Ready has dismissed the scrub on the
second last day before the big game,
and on the day before the contest sim
ply had the men out for limbering up
and brief signal drill.
The rain Of yesterday, however
spoiled this programme, so to-day both
varsity and scrub were ordered out for
an hours work. The scrub took the
ball and showered forward pass after
forward pass az the defending regulars
in order TO give them a thorough drill
IN breaking up the play. Lafayette is
expected to rely greatly on the open
game tomorrow.
While no official lineup was an
nounced tonight, il Is likely that Nc
Carly and Good will be the ends, Tate
and Richards the tackles, Mccarthy
and Becker the guards, Pons or Nc
Donald centre, Chenoweth or Herring
ton quarterback. Drummer and Halsted

In this regard the Army and Harvard

Ohphant or Vidal run forty yards to
a touchdown, when one can see Admiral

equally as momentous?

Of an inferior brand-there is no rea-
son to anticipate this. though-the ma
npuvres of the Cadets Of both colleges
are nearly worth the price of admis-
sion; that is, the normal price, not the
spectators. The forming Of the

Of military capes is pretty spectacle
in itself.

HAUGHTON COUNTS
ON VICTORY, BUT
BY SMALL MARGIN
Harvard Coach Has Much Re.
spect for the Yale
Line

New London, Conn, Nov. 24.-Percy
Haughton has his Harvard football
team ready for to-morrow's great bat
tie on Yale Field The eleven has
come down to the scratch in first class
physical trim, although several of the
varsity players recently have recov.
cred from injuries that looked serious
a few weeks back.
A hard game doubtless will see not
a few substitutions for the Crimson
but as the game begins the team is on
edge physically as we'll as mentally
To-day was a fairly busy one for the
varsity players, who were Joined al
their hotel by the remainder of the
substitute squad.
Team at Movies
In the morning the boys attended
the moving picture exhibition az which
scenes from the Harvard Princeton
game were shown, while in the after
noon there was a brisk signal and
kicking drill at the New London ball
park. In the evening the coaches took
their men to the Lyceum Hall, and
there the repertory Of plays was thor
oughly rehearsed and the men received
the final instructions regarding their
defensive game.
In the kicking drill to-day Horween
showed remarkable form both in punt
ing and drop kicking. He got fine dis
lance with each variety Of kick. Bond
and Thacher also punted well, and
Bond and Robinson showed great &C
curacy in their tries for field goals.
Percy Haughton feels that his team
is good enough to win tomorrow
game by a small margin, but believes
that the Yale line is too strong for
Harvard to score except by the best
use of It's open running and passing
game. He is confident, also, that Har-
ward is well drilled defensively to
meet any attack the New Haven team
has shown this year, but shares the
opinion of the other coaches that Tad
Jones very likely has developed some
special offence for the game.
Hate TO Use Subs
The lineup remains unchanged. The
coaches expect that Murray, Sweetser
Clark and possibly Phinney will get
into the game, but every effort will be
made TO keep the first string men
going, as the substitutes did not gain
any confidence through their expert
ence against Brown.
The eleven will go to New Haven
early in the morning by special train
ard will be at the field an hour before
the game. Percy Haughton said to-
night that he sympathized with Coach
Jones of Yale, on account of the re-
ported sickness of some of his first
string players, and hoped that Yale
would not be handicapped. Several ad-
ditional coaches arrived in New Lon
don to-day, among them Wallie Trum-
bull. Crawford Blagden, Bob Fisher
and Harry Gardner.
