Lady Azgapetian Pleads for Armenia Dorothea Chambers, '19, will go out to Syria in June as a‘representative of the Bryn Mawr Service Corps, accord- ing to a statement made by Miss Mar- ion Reilly, ’03, who presided at the rally for the Near East last Saturday. Miss Chambers and one or two others will work under an appropriation of $5000 made by the Service Corps Committee to the Near East Relief, under whose auspices Lady Azgapetian, the speaker of the evening, is touring the country. With work in France at an end and only one Service Corps worker Pleas- aunce Baker Parsons, “09 (Mrs. Ar- thur Parsons) still in Europe, the Serv- ice Corps Committee will in the future concentrate their attention on the Near East. Excluding the recent $5000 appro- priation, about $7000 still remains in the hands of the committee. LLady Azgapetian, who wears the Rus- sian Order of Stanilaus and a decoration from the Shah of Persia, pinned to the uni- form of the Imperial Russian Red Cross, served with her husband, who was for two years an officer with the Czar’s Army. She observed at first han dthe work of the Armenians who fought the Turk in Asia Minor under the Grand Duke Nicholas. “In spite of the offers from Turkey of the longed-for ‘Free Armenian Re- public, should she remain neutral, Ar- menia cast her lot with the Allies. Her soldiers fought the Turk well, for they were avenging centuries of insult. First class fighting men, they are called by missionaries ‘the Irish of the Orient.’ And they are capable of running their own government, for they ruled them- selves for many years before the Turk came in.” When Bolshevik troubles came, Lady Azgapetian and her husband fled across the mountains of Persia to the Caspian Sea in a Red Cross ambulance. After ten months they reached. Petrograd, where they lived for weeks on six ounces of bread a day, finally escaping to the United States on a tramp steamer. RIVAL CLUBS FOR LOWDEN AND WOOD SPRING UP ON CAMPUS Lowden and Wood Clubs were or- ganized Monday night with twelve tem- bers at each meeting. The officers of the Lowden Club are: D. Rogers. ’20, President; E. Donnelly, 21: H. Guthrie, '22; E. Kimbrough, ’21; M. Hays, ‘22, vice precidents; A. Hay, 23, Secretary; E. Mathews, ’22, Treas- urer. The purpose of the club is to spread propaganda for its candidate. This has already been begun with a series of posters on the bulletin boards. M. Crosby, '22, was elected President of the Wood Club.

M. C. A. worker during the war, with the British forces east of Suez. The talk, illustrat- ed by lantern slides made from Mr. Wes- ton’s photographs, will include such top- ics as the hanging of Bakhtiari robbers, Persian marriage customs, British in- trigue and the future of Persia. Mr. Weston will speak under the auspices of the History Club. Obliged to forgo active service be- cause of lameness from infantile paral- ysis, Mr. Weston enlisted in the Y. M. C. A. immediately after his graduation from Harvard in 1916. He was stationed in India, Mesopotamia and Bagdad and was eventually put in control of the for- ward area between the three fronts— on the Euphrates, on the Tigris, and into Persia as far as Hamadan. Showed Movies to Harem Ladies “With the movies of one of his thea- the New York World, “at the suggestion of the British Political Department, Weston distinguished him- self by being the first man to entertain the ladies of the harems of the Bagdad Sheiks. He was obliged to censor the films with care. All love scenes were cut, lest the veiled ladies should misun- derstand the passionate movie tricks ‘ America. Only three men, Weston and his two assistants, were allowed in the theatre, and they were safely hidden in the cinemetograph box. A _ cordon of Arab police were thrown around the theatre. Thus the ladies of the Orient went to the theatre for the first time.” ” tres, says ANATOLEWLE BRAZ TO TRACE GROWTHLOF BRETON LEGENDS Breton Poet Secured By French Club o Speak Next Saturday Brittany’s poet and novelist, Anatole Le Braz will lecture in Taylor next Fri- day night under the auspices of the French Club, on the folk lore of his: country.

The proceeds of the lecture, which was given under the aus- pices of the Student's Medical Society, amounting to $80, were contributed to the Endowment Fund. General Gorgas, upon his retirement from the U. S. Army, was made head af a commission to close in the seed beds of yellow fever, relatively few in num- ber, which have been definitely located at Guayaquil, Yucatan, the coast of Brazil, and the coast of Africa. “The germ is notoriously elusive,” said Dr. Vincent as he described the efforts of Dr. Nagouchi, a Japanese, sent to Guayaquil, by the Rockefeller Founda- lion, to exterminate the stegomyia, a female mosquito, discovered to ‘be the carrier of the germ. From the results Dr. Nagouchi has gained it seems fairly safe to work on the theory that the germ has been discoyvered_and-a-comba- tive serum made. Dr. Conner, a Foundation doctor at Guayaquil, centered his attention on de- stroying the breeding spots of the mos- quito. Although the Ecuadorians in their ignorance thwarted Dr. Conner’s efforts at every step, he succeeded in nine months in reducing the number of cases from 88 to none. Since last July, there has not been a case of yellow fever in Guaya- quil. “Public health is a government func- tion and ultimately must be run by the government,” declared Dr. Vincent in conclusion. “Private enterprises, such as the Rockefeller Foundation, are use- ful in international relations where poli- ticians cause delay and hinder scientific research. Public health offers great vis- tas, from the extermination of yellow fever to the care of babies in slums, and it is a worthy field for every intelligent woman.” ‘HOOVER COLLEGE’S MAJORITY CANDIDATE IN STRAW VOTE Wins 79 Per Cent of Faculty Ballot Students Two-thirds Republicans Final returns from the Presidential straw vote polled at Bryn Mawr yesterday show of sentiment for Herbert Hoover—79 per cent of the faculty votes going to him and 54 per cent of the student votes. Leonard Wood came third among faculty among students; and the third largest number of votes went to uninstructed delegates. The Republicans carried off nearly two- thirds of the students, and Republican and Independent votes first place among the faculty. Twenty-eight Demo- crats voted for Hoover, 23 of them stu- dents and 5 faculty, Three students are Socialists. Thirteen students enrolled themselves as a majority and second received National Liberals, proposing to follow a new party platform suggested by Professor Fenwick. His platform for a National Liberal party will be printed in the News next week Registered at the polls yesterday were 58 'per cent of the faculty and staff, or 44 out (Continued on Page 2) ae ees rip may begin at an mame To Cool the Fevered Brow An atmosphere of tension and rush is contagious. Everyone is busy with May Day, and.a few are so extremely busy that there are not enough minutes in each hour for its quota of jobs. The tremendous rush of the busiest colors the days of the rest of us, until we think we are as pressed as they, and when the inevitable clash be- tween quiz and rehearsal arrives a panicky feeling results. There are two long wecks before May Day, but if we can keep cool heads as we lead the frenzied pace, the In- firmary will not be stocked with pseudo- nervous collapses when the Day arrives. my A $2.00 es ie 1914 at Positive Self Feel'ny Senior singing has been temporarily given up. With it the stimulus that arouses our instinct of self-affirmation manifesting itself in crisp organdies and cool muslins seems to have disappeared. But this is a fact quite contrary to all we learn in psy- chology. By rights, the very sight of our fellow creatures should inspire us\ with the desire to don our best and-_parade before them. Is it a longing to disprove existing psychological theories or is it merely care- lessness ‘that makes the Bryn Mawr under- graduate appear in the evening dressed so untidily that wardens and Self Govern- ment officials are forced to bring the mat- ter up at Council meetings? Calliope to the Rescue For the benefit of the 500 future revellers who struggle bewildered through the May Day pageant rehearsals twice a week, the following rhymed program has been writ- ten by H. Hill '21. The Green committee is having it set to music. It will be sung in the halls at dinner, and every student is asked to learn it by heart. “Run on the field, a reveling crowd, And sing, ‘Come lads and lasses’ loud. Then watch the central May pole in And greet its guards with lusty din. And when you see the queen appear ‘Make echoing walls fling back your cheer. Sing ‘To the May Pole’ with glad grace And meanwhile get yourself in place, So when the music starts to play You'll dance the 29th of May. When that is over, take your lass And form your circles on the grass. Sellenger’s Round is then begun; Peascods is danced when that is done. Next form big circles,—leave no gaps,— Cheer the May Pole and toss your caps. Last bow and cheer Queen Bess, and sing * oe eae ‘Come lads’ while you are exiting.” LETTERS TO THE EDITOR Back Lowden’s Platform To the editors of the News: We advocate Frank O. Lowden as a Presidential candidate because 1. By reorganizing the government of Illinois and by reducing the number of departments from 128 to 9 he re- duced the tax rate 33 per cent, so that the people pay $7000 less for State taxes. 2. He stands for concentration of re- sponsibility. 3. He believes in the budget system of national finance. 4. He stands behind the promotion of agricultural interests. He favors woman suffrage. To the Editor of the College News: In considering the presidential condi- dates, one cannot omit Hiram \V. John- son, of California. His public career be- gan ten years ago, and since that time he has twice been elected governor of his state, then senator, and once he was the candidate for the vice-presidency under the Progressive ticket with Roose- velt. + During his term of office as governor he brought about numerous reforms most especially in the politics of the time, whose crookedness was proverbial. But after Johnson the corrupt had be- come incorruptible, As a_ result, John- son has the complete support of the people, and owns all the political ma- chinery of the state (which enabled him to defeat Hughes for president). He was one of the “bitter-enders” in the Treaty fight in the Senate, and his will be an anti-league candidacy against ‘Hoover, but this is an outcome of his loyalty to the doctriiie of “America first,” and his code of allegiance to no-one. Finally, since he is a Republican, a proved business executive, progressive, a fighter, and since in all these, Roosevelt is his nearest prototype, Johnson must be classed among the chief candidates. MUG-WUMP. Practical Rally to Wood To the Editor of College News: Students, theorists, and women, no matter how high their mental calibre, lack practical experience in government- al affairs Yet these three classes are among Mr. Hoover's strongest backers. This is no time for testing the ability of untried men. The country needs a man experienced in government to ex- tricate it from its present entanglements. Such a one is General Leonard Wood, supported by business men, successful as governer of Cuba, and backed by a strong and faithful party in Congress. Practical at any Price. To the Editor of the College News: No one could possibly regret more than myself the impression that muS&t be creat- ed upon outsiders and upon our distin- guished visitors by the discourtesy of students at their lectures. I am in a position to feel this keenly, as I was obliged myself to leave early with an outside guest at the lecture lately given by Mr. St. John Ervine. The thought occurred to me then, and may _ have to others, that a delay of forty minutes in introducing a speaker may be as great a discourtesy to him as the departure of a few of the audience that much early, and may indeed be the cause, however unjustified, of subjecting him to the second indignity. If it were not beyond the courage of our managers to commence a lecture before the reservy- ed seats are filled, the burden of discourt- esy might fall upon another group, not all of them college students. HELEN E. SPALDING, '19 To the Editor of the College News: During the war, Bryn Mawr _ students and alumnz were most. generous in helping to carry on relief work that I had undertaken in behalf of the men from the invaded regions. I wish to thank most heartily all who contributed and, before we forget all that France and Belgium suffered, I wish to appeal once more for help. The time has not yet come to stop ‘relief work. I have long lists af needy families in Vise, Belgium, where 504 houses were pillaged and burned by the Germans, in Moyenmoutier and La Petite Raon, in Lorraine, France, which were under fire for years. In these towns, as At the- present rate” of few dollars make a great many francs. ‘I should be so grateful if the help | given in the past could go on just a little longer, until these poor fam- ilies are once more self-supporting. The French and Belgian governments are no longer appealing for outside aid, feeling that, if possible, they must care for their own. But the need is great, and the suffering must be great until the belated indemnities are paid. Can we not help to tide these families over the waiting period, shorten the term of their suffering, and give them renewed courage for the stuggle? In behalf of the ruined towns of Vise, Moyenmoutier, and La Petite Raon. JEANETTE CURTIS CONS. Money should be sent to Madame Louis Cons, 25 Bank Street, Princeton, N. J. ; Moral Responsibility for Bates With Bryn Mawr Says Dean Smith “Bryn Mawr can make what it likes out of Bates House,” declared Dean Smith, speaking in Chapel last Thursday morning. “Workers must be on the lookout this sunmrmer for possible im- provements in its organization.” According to Miss Smith, Bates House should in the future be more of an educational center. “Two weeks is not too short to give, under trained di- rection, elementary classes in hygiene, care of children, playground work or first aid. Bryn Mawr workers should get valuable training there in the fundamen- tals of social work.” FIRST JUNIOR TENNIS TEAM DEFEATS 1920 ON THREE COURTS Defeating the Seniors in three out of five matches, 1921’s first tennis team won its way into the finals on Monday afternoon, This is the first time in the history of the class that. 1920 has lost first team tennis. The match between H. Holmes, ’20, and W. Worcester, '21, was the closest on the courts, both players showing a te- nacity and steadiness that drew out the score of the second set to 10-8, All the matches were decided in two straight games. These were the first interclass games since tennis has been made a major sport. Results: 1. Z. Boynton, ’20, "21; 6-1, 6-1. 2. M. Carey, ’20, defeated K. Walker, 21, 6-2- 6-4, defeated C. Bolton, 3.

NEWS IN BRIEF Mental tests used in the army during the war will be applied to members of the class in Educational Psychology next week by Major Edwin Adams, formerly of the personnel department at Camp Upton. The undergraduates of Smith College have written a personal letter to every person in the United States by the name of Smith, asking for a contribution of a dollar to their Endowment Fund. During Easter vacation, Dr. Arthur Bye read a paper on “Present Day Art in Holland,” at the College Art Associa- tion Conference at Buffalo. Next week’s News will announce the Silver Bay Delegation which is to be chosen by the Christian Association board this week-end. Eight students had individual confer- ences with Miss Florence Jackson on vocational work last Monday morning. Two of these were graduates. At a recasting of the votes on account of a mis-count at the first meeting, E. Rhoads, ‘23, was elected Secretary of the Christian Association last week. : Cooae The cam p will last from July 15 to August 15 or 30, and will be locat- _ ed near Bryn Mawr. Miss Barrett, head of the center, will be the director. The members of the camp will live in tents, and there will be a farm-house for rainy days. Miss Barrett hopes to _ have Bryn Mawr students for recreation work during the girls’ and the mothers’ weeks, and Haverford students for the boys’ week. The workers will not be paid, but no charge for board will be made. “Afternoon clubs and classes at the Center will stop May first, for we can’t ~ that work without the students, and we know that they will be busy then,” said Miss Barrett; “I ntheir place the children will have outdoor activities, such as hikes, camp suppers and excur- sions to the zoo. Any students with free time can help with these.” Hoover College’s Majority Cancidate in Straw Vote (Continued from Page 1) of a total enrollment of 78, and 74 per cent of the students, or 329 out of 450. Tabulated results of the vote show that for Hoover were 35 of the faculty and 180 students; for Wood, 2 of the faculty and 65 students; for uninstructed delegates, 3 of the faculty and 40 students; for Lowden, 1 of the faculty and 29 students for John- son, 2 of the faculty and 8 students; for Benson (Socialist), 2 students; 1 student for McAdoo; 1 student for Raymond Rob- bins; 3 students for Harding; and one of the faculty for Mrs. Catt. ENDOWMENT NOTES Governor Sproul has consented to act as chairman of the honorary men’s com- mittee for the Pennsylvania-Delaware district. Workers in the Chicago district con- ducted a Toy Shop in a corner of the Stevens Department Store during the last week in March. All the wares were made and decorated by Winnetka alum- nae in an improvised shop at the resi- dence of Carmelita Chase Hinton (Mrs. Sebastian Hinton), ’12. John Drinkwater’s play, “Abraham Lincoln,” which is in the first year of its successful run in New York, was pre- sented in New Haven last Sunday after- noon under the auspices of the New Haven Endowment committee for the benefit of the Endowment. Miss Heloise E. Hersey, a graduate of Vassar, is giving a series of four weekly lectures for the benefit of the Endowment at the Hotel Vendome in Boston. A silhouette exhibition attracted crowds to a Bryn Mawr tea at the Archi- tectural Club in Boston on April 8. The alumnae in charge included: Leslie Knowles Blake, 00 (Mrs. Arthur Blake); Jane Cragin Kay, ’02 (Mrs. D’Arcy Kay); Virginia Litchfield, 17; Anna Sherwin, '03; Annie Cabot, ex-’04; Mar- jorie Young Gifford, '08; and Ruth Whit- ney Lyman, ex-’03 (Mrs. Herbert Ly- man).

LV No 24, sont a 1920 _ With an "equipment of ities tis and two pennants, the weather bureau in the geology department of Dalton Hall is able to give 18 different kinds of infor- mation as to the weather for the follow- ing day, according to an interpretation. of the weather flags given in chapel last week by Dr. Bascom, Professor of Geol- ogy: The flags are displayed on the day be- fore that for which the weather is fore- cast, Miss Bascom explained, which clari- fies the anomalous. situation of having a fair weather flag hung out in a pouring rain. A white flag signifies fair weather, dark blue, rain, and a combination of blue and white, “doubtful,” or showers When two flags are displayed a later change in the weather conditions and the nature of the change are indicated by the lower flag. Pennants indicate temperature; the blue triangular pennant above the weather flag forecasts rising temperature; below the flag, falling tem- perature, and when the pennant is ab- sent, temperature is approximately sta- tionary. A cold wave flag, white with a dark square center, indicates a sudden and extreme drop in temperature. The department hopes to announce on May 5 a forecast of the weather for May 7 and 8; = LADY ASTOR ENDORSES DRIVE Lady Nancy Astor, the first woman member of the House of Commons, sent a cablegram to the Bryn Mawr Endow- ment Office on April first, giving her hearty endorsement to the Bryn Mawr Shaw Memorial. The cablegram was signed by Rachel Costello Strachey (Mrs. Oliver Strachey), parliamentary secre- tary to Mrs. Astor. Mrs. Strachey was a graduate student here in 1908-09, and is a member of the international committtee for the Anna Howard Shaw Memorial Chair of Poli- tics. Although she was defeated in the general election in 1916, when she was one of five women candidates trying for seats in the House of Commons, it is more than likely, according to the Pub- lic Ledger, that Mrs. Strachey will some day be a member of Parliament. SECRETARY OF DUTCH REFORMED CHURCH WILL PREACH SUNDAY Dr. A. L. Wanshius, formerly a physi- cian in China, and traveling secretary of the International Movement of the Dutch Reformed Church, will speak in chapel next Sunday at 7.30. He was secured for Bryn Mawr by the World Citizenship Committee. “An inspiring speaker and a_ clear thinker who presents his subject in a compelling, forceful manner” is the way in which the Des Moines delegation char- acterizes Dr. Wanshius, who was one of the conference leaders. New Building for Bryn Mawr Club A new clubhouse has been purchased for the New York Bryn Mawr Club at 279 Lexington Avenue, between 36th and 37th Sts., and will be opened early in September. Because of the inadequacy of the present quarters, many applica- tions for accommodations at the club have been refused. The new building will permit of at- tractive club rooms, 12 bedrooms for members, 6 bathrooms, an office and cloak rooms and will make it possible to accommodate a larger membership. Any one who has been at Bryn Mawr one year is eligible. Application for member- ship may be sent to Nathalie Swift, Chairman, Admission Committee, 137 East 40th Street, New York City. DR. POTTER RECEIVES NEW HONORS Dr. Ellen C. Potter, medical director of the Woman's College Hospital, has been appointed chief of the division of child health in the State Department of Health by Colonel! Edward Martin, com- missioner of health. ” FRIENDS TO RAIbE FRY CHAIR” FOR E Trustees and Alumnae on Committee An “Elizabeth Fry Chair” for Bryn Mawr is being raised in connection with the Endowment Fund Drive by a com- mittee of friends to commemorate the early interest taken by the Quakers in the higher education of women. The committee is Rufus M. Jones, Chairman of the Board of/ Trustees; Asa S. Wing, Thomas Raebufn White, Anna Rhodes Ladd, ’89, Trustees; Emma Cadbury, Jr., 98,and Anna Scattergood Hoag, '96. Preacher of the English Society of Friends in the eighteenth century, Eliza- beth Fry devoted her life to philanthropy. When eighteen years old she established in her father’s house a school of eighty poor children. She effected much prison relief, and was also interested in the ad- vancement of education and the abolition of slavery. The motto adopted by the “Elizabeth Fry Chair” committee is taken from Wil- liam Penn’s advice to his children in a letter written in 1632 relating to the care of the Penn children:—‘For their learn- ing be liberal. Spare not cost, for by such parsimony all is lost that is saved.” “ALICE” A FINANCIAL SUCCESS Film Comes to B. M. Saturday Benefit performances of the “Alice in Wonderland” film, that has been shown in different cities for the Endow- ment Fund, have been attracting large audiences since the premiere in Carne- gie Hall, in New York, on April 5. Ard- more will be the scene for the produc- tion next Friday, April 23, and Bryn Mawr on Saturday. Slides of the college are thrown on the screen after the movie. In New York “Alice” brought in $805.- 73, according to Mary Ayer Rousmaniere (Mrs. John Rousemaniere), '01, who man- aged the performance there. The finan- cial returns have not been received from the other cities. The Boston committee, which gave performances on April 9 and 10, reports that “Alice and the White Rabbit and the Mad Hatter paraded up and down Commonwealth avenue Wed- nesday afternoon and were present at both performances.” “HUMBLE. —— ” WILL VEN. TURE SECOND JOURNEY A second booklet of verse issued by the Reeling and Writhing Club, keeping the name “Humble Voyagers,” but clad in a brown cover, will make its appear- ance on May Day. The work of the club since last Octo- ber will be represented, but the volume will be smaller than that issued last fall because ‘of rigorous selection of the verses. One-third of the material handed in will be used. Freshmen have contrib- uted much to the volume; work by H. Hill, "21; K. Ward, '21, and J. Flexner, '21, will also be included. THOMAS TO CONT INUE TRAVELING IN NEAR EAST UNTIL MAY | Cables recently received from Presi- dent Thomas report that she spent Easter in Jerusalem. From. there she. planned to go to Syria and Damascus. Newspa- per reports of uprisings in Jerusalem, of the closing of the Gate of Damascus, and of the withdrawal of passports to Syria make it uncertain how far Miss Thomas will be able to carry out her itinerary. Petra, “The Rose-Red City,” shown in Mr. Lowell Thomas's pictures on the Holy Land given here recently, is one of the cities Miss Thomas hopes to visit before her arrival in Greece in May.

Mr. Kane | spoke on “Free Speech,” under the auspices of the Discussion Club, in Tay- lor Hall. “The second espionage act was too extreme,” sentences under both acts were out of all proportion. It is unfair to deport Russians for life, and not try them here, and to sentence a woman to ten years for harmlessly supporting a cause she had been advocating all her life. Eng- land, France and Italy freed all prisoners under such acts as soon as the armis- tice was signed, but we continue to hold ours.” : “Such sentences violate the amendment of the Constitution, and harm the prisoner and advance his cause,” continued Mr. Kane. “The im: mediate effect of criminal prosecution is almost always bad on the people involv- ed, and the prisoner comes out of jail worse than when he went in. The So- cialist, the conscientious objector and the Red is glad to suffer for his opinions, and advances his cause and the number of his followers by going to jail.” Mr. Kane assured his audience that the old-fashioned spy with false hair and whiskers scarcely existed during this war. “As a matter of fact,” he said. “there was very little spying, but a tre- mendous amount of imagination in the public mind,” and illustrated his point with the story of the man on the sea- shore who indulged in calisthenics and was arrested for signaling enemy ships first DISCUSS FACULTY INTERVIEWS AT COUNCIL MEETING ed Room-Draw Also Considered Interviews between Faculty and students in regard to were discussed at length at the meeting of the College Coun- cil on April 12, It was suggested that be- spring registration df courses either Taft or Dean Smith ad- dress a joint mecting of Sophomores and lreshmen on major subjects, the heads of departments to follow up this meeting by setting definite hours for consultation with students. courses fore \cting-President On the question of class quotas in room- draw, the student members of the council asked that a definite time be established for the final publication of the quotas, that five- year students should not be counted in the quota for the Senior Class, and that room- draw rules be made more flexible in the case of students whose roommates drop out during the summer. In discussing the question of Freshman Night the Council questioned whether the fun of the occasion has not been !ost with the loss of its spontaneity, and recom- mended that the Freshman Class take seri- ously the question of returning to the class banquet. HOOVER TELEGRAPHS L.

Without this assistance, which must continue to the extent of one million dollars per month, these long-tried people will be faced with immediate starvation and extermination. The need is imperative, and our assist- ance at this time must not be withheld. “HERBERT HOOVER.” was the ‘theme of declared M.
