LEHIGH UNIVERSITY'S NEW TAYLOR STADIUM
ouse.
SOUTH BETHLEHEM, Pa., Oct. 17
Thls Is Taylor Day nt Lehigh University
and hundiccls of Alumni from nil parts
of tho country nre Joining with the
student body In the celebration. In
honor of Charles L. Taylor, of Pittsburgh,
an alumnus and trustee of the University,
who donated a large modern gymnasium,
ftwlmmlng pool and field house, exercises
were held at the University today. Ad
dresses were made by representatives of
the student body, the Alumni, the
Faculty, and the Board of Trustees.
High praise was accorded Mr. Taylor,
whose gift enables the University to
carry out lt broad program for the phy
sical welfare of the student body. At
Lehigh, upon joint students and faculty
action, every student Is required to take
regular gymnasium or out-of-door exer
cise, for which one unit credit Is given
toward graduation. This system affects
the entire student body and not a few
atheletes alone.
The athletic plant at Lehigh Includes,
besides tho gymnasium, swimming pool
and field house, a concrete stadium, Just
completed for varsity teams, and a. prac
tice field for other students on which
there Is a quarter mile running track,
with a KO yards straightaway. The cost
of erection Is more than $300,000.
THE TAYLOR GYMNASIUM.
The new Taylor Gymnasium Is a struc
ture of white limestone brick, 222 feet
long, 90 feet wide and three stories high.
In the north half of the building are tho
game room and the gymnasliim proper.
The south half contains locker apart
ments, trophy and other rooms, and, at
the extreme south end, a swimming pool.
Basketball and wrestling matches nro
held In the game room, which Is 00 feet
long and 70 feet wide and has a seating
capacity of 1200 spectators. Class exer
cises and drills are held on the gym
nasium floor abovo, a room 90 feet by 70
feet. Thcro Is an esolanade or out-nf-
doors exercise roof t the north end.
The swimming pool In the south sec
tion Is much larger than regulation size
and is absolutely up-to-date in equipment
and sanitary provisions. Filtering goes
on every day of the week and the pool
is emptied and cleaned every Sunday. A
new ruling requires that each freshman
at Lehigh must learn to swim.
The field house, donated by Mr. Taylor
last spring as a supplementary gift to
the gymnasium, is two stories high, 66
feet long and 33 feet wide, It rating.
with the gymnasium and stadium by a
southwest
This magnifictent structure is the crowning achievement in the work of placing Lehigh in the forefront of physical training. It was made possible
by the generous donations of four Lehigh clubs and the contributions of Charles M. Schwab, Warren A. Wilbur and Eugene Q. Grace, of the Board of
Trustees.

It is not unconservatlve to say that tho
monetary situation Is showing decided Im
provement One of the best Indications
of betterment la that a New York Insti
tution, which Is notoriously stringent on
the appearance of any trouble, has this
week been offering money on call for the
first time since the war conditions de
veloped. It is true that In case of default, when
a loan of this character Is called, the
lending bank has no Stock Exchange
where It can quickly realize on collateral,
and a bank that makea n call loan takes
the risk of being hung up with It Indefi
nitely. But the fact that they are more
ready to take such risks now Is clear
proof that credit Is getting more plentiful.
in connection with this It may also be
mentioned that many Stock Exchange
houses are asking moro margin from
customers and In most cases the response
has been satisfactory. This course Is
Justified by the fact that existing con
tracts are based on purely arbitrary
prices those of the close of tho Ex
change on Tuly SO while tho conditions
might wan .nt much lower figures wero
a free market available.
ACCOUNTS BEING MARGINED.
Many accounts are being margined up
to 25 and 30 per cent, so that a gradual
process is In operation which is strength
ening open stock accounts so that It
vould require a severe shrinkage from
July 30 prices to Impair the soundness of
the street.
Another evidence of betterment is that
a. new low rate of 6 per cent, is being
made In discount rates on commercial pa
per. This Is half a point oft from tho
previous' minimum. Only the choicest
credit commands the new low figure, but
nevertheless Its influence Is felt on the
general tendency of tho commercial bor
rowing position. Institutions are buying
paper more freely, and there Is an easier
market In New England, a ery Impor
tant lending section.
Another measuro toward relieving the
situation promises soon to be In existence.
Reference Is made to the project for the
big bank pool to be formed for the pur
pose of assisting with loans such cotton
planters as are compelled to carry over
a part of their cotton crop. The Ffyleral
Heserve Board has extended Its moral

against only 15 advances.
In tho market for dairy products sub
stantially higher prices wero obtained for
the superior grades of butter and eggs,
but owing to somewhat large supplies
those of medium and lower quality
shewed little change, while cheese was
generally weak. The grain markets dis
played somo Irregularity, there being
marked strength In wheat and a fair de
greo of firmness In flour, while corn and
oats were rather easy. There was little
change In live meats, although beef, hogs
and sheep were firm, but considerable
strength was developed In most kinds of
provisions.
Noticeably easv condition ruled in mmi
varieties of hides, but prices of leather
were not affected, the firmness of that
market being fully sustained. The mod
erate volume of new business Is exerting
an adverse effect on tho Iron and steel
ndustry, and competition for contracts
lias caused some shading of quotations,
notably on steel billets and bars.
Many of the minor metals continue to

being especially weak. Sugar, coffoe.
