- the fact that It's basketball team has succeeded in
adding game with the University OF Pennsylvania team

the Lehigh University team last week. II is asserted
that up to certain point where the referee to the
relief of Lehgh with favorable decisions Delaware had
Lehigh beaten. Even at that the final score was ex
ceedlngly close.
In the game with the University OF Pennsylvania
team the Delaware College boys should do their utmost

basketball representatives Of old Delaware in itself
compliment which should find acknowledgment in the
best playing possible
