Another important work was ac
credited the already long list of wilt

State faculty members when Bneux’s
“Les Americams Chez Nous," edited
by Prof. Irving L. Foster, head of the
Romance Lunguagc department, was

the aims of the editor and m this he
has attained much success, for the
edition may be used in the third year
of high school as well as in the second
year of college.
Included in the -volume is an mtio
duction giving a brief sketch of M
Bricux and hia plays, the text itself
of aoout one bundled pages and a set
of carefully prepared notes to aid in
undei standing the aigumcnts of the
play and also to clarify some of the
idiomatic expressions. It also con

verbs and a vocabulary which includes
every word used in the text Irregu

Written immediately after the

tempts to bring about a closer union
between the United States and Fiance
by means of a better understanding of
the motives on the part of both

French and American viewpoint
which the World War emphasized are
smoothed over and conciliated.

Repeatedly carrying the ball to

Beaver Field Saturdav; the Brown
and White eleven tasting defeat by
a 3 to 0 score.
Although the Penn State forwards
held the ball m Lehigh territory
throughout the majority of the
game, poor passing coupled with
good defensive work by the Bethle

the low score Bell, Keen and
Schwartz were the' Nittanv point
getters.
Score Early, m Game
The first Nittany tally came eailj.
in the first quarter .when Bell, the
Blue and White left halfback
broke through the Lehigh defense
and sent the ball into the net.
Throughout the ’ remainder of the
half the Nittany line missed many
opportunities to score, the half end
