A modified Glauber approximation has been employed to investigate the elastic scattering of electrons by the hydrogen molecules in the intermediate-energy range (50--1000 eV). The exchange effects are included through the Glauber--Ochkur approximation. In general the effect of multiple scattering is found to be small and the differential cross sections agree very well with the absolute experimental data for E> or =100 eV. The total cross sections for electron as well as positron scattering are also obtained via the optical theorem. The values are in good agreement with the available experimental data.
