Apparently taking the Lehigh beating to heart and determining to get going, the Lions waged two fero cious scrimmages on Tuesday and Wednesday 5n preparation for the tilt. Again injuries will hamper the Lion attack. Paul Enders who was shifted to tackle Tuesday received a severe kick on the.leg and was in the infirmary for two days.
