LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS WANTS
BRYN MAWR MEMBERSHIP

 

To Be Stbject of Chapel Talk at 8.30

The Non-Partisan League of Women
Voters, of which Mrs. George Gellhorn
(Edna Fischel, ’00) is vice-president,
working for civic reform and social bet-
terment, wants to establish a branch at
every woman’s college, first of all at
Bryn Mawr. Mrs. Carroll Miller (Emma
Guffey, ’'99), organizer of the Middle
State Division of the League, has been
asked to speak in chapel next Thursday
or Friday on this subject.

Mrs. Miller, a member of the first
committee of the Democratic Party,
spoke throughout the state for the

Democratic ticket during the campaign.
Chapel will begin at 8.30.

EUROPEAN STUDENTS WORK UNDER
SHOCKING LIVING CONDITIONS

 

Hoover Appeals for Relief Funds «

Investigation of conditions in Central
and Eastern European universities have
been made by the American Relief Ad-
ministration, of which Mr. Herbert
Hoover is chairman. A State of affairs
described as “distressing” was discov-
ered, according to the report of the ad-
ministration, which makes an appeal for
aid to a relief movement.

In the universities students are at-
tempting to live on two meagre meals a
day, in filthy rooms without heat or ade-
quate light, and with a few ragged gar-
ments as clothing. On account of labor
conditions, it is impossible for students
to earn even the barest pittance which
will support them, and professors, for-
merly world authorities, do not receive
? living wage.

According to Mr. Hoover a decadence
of European intellect will be manifest
if this state of affairs is not soon alle-
viated. In recognition of the fact, stu-
dent organizations in the British Em-
pire and Holland have sent material
relief. Here the American Relief Admin-
istration appeals to the students of
\merica to aid in raising funds which
will enable the administration to under-
take self-help schemes for these Eu-
ropean students in order to make life
and education possible for them.

The University of California is making
plans for a stadium, which will seat
more than the Yale bowl, costing over

$600,000.

Wellesley is planning to raise $300,000
for a students’ building as part of its
Endowment Fund.

Beginning next Fall, Ohio State Uni-
versity will become a year-round col-
lege, with four terms a year, says the
Radcliffe News.

 

  

With the aim of making the Alumnae
Association more representative and
unified, the Alumnae Board and the
special committee on reorganization met
in Bryn Mawr on November 22nd and
23rd.

To keep the alumnae in all parts of
the country in touch with each other
and with the college, seven councillors
have been appointed, each one in charge
of a district. These councillors will man-
age publicity in their districts among
the schools and in newspaper articles.
They will also keep in touch with the
college and be a means of keeping other
alumnae in their districts informed
about events of interest at Bryn Mawr.
Three times a year the councillors plan
to meet with the Alumnae Board and
the Executive Secretary, the chairman
of the standing committees, one of the
Alumnae Directors and one of the Di-
rectors-at-Large.. One of these meet-
ings will be held away from Bryn Mawr.

Admitting to the Association associate
members with the full rights and privi-
leges of full members was discussed.
By-Laws were considered in part with
a view toward securing greater elasticity
of procedure.

“The Bryn Mawr Bulletin,” the new
alumnae monthly magazine, will publish
full minutes of the conference in the
January number.

COMMUNITY CENTER CELEBRATES
THANKSGIVING WITH TABLEAUX

 

Dr. Mutch Reads From Gov. Bradford’s
Book, “History of Plymouth”

Thirty boys and girls of the Bryn
Mawr and Preston Community Centers
presented a series of fourteen tableaux,
“The Story of the Pilgrims,” in celebra-
tion of the three hundredth anniversary
of the landing of the Pilgrims, to an
audience of over 500 people on Novem-
ber 23rd, the Tuesday before Thanks-
giving, at the Bryn Mawr Fire House.

Dr. Andrew Mutch, of the Bryn Mawr
Presbyterian Church, lending great at-
rites de ae performance in_ his
Puritan costume, read before each tab-
leau from Governor Bradford’s “History
of Plymouth” of 1630, upon which the
whole “production was chronologically
based, from the leaving of Holland to
the first Thanksgiving. In this last
scene a brown crepe paper turkey fig-
ured largely but not so realistically as
the pumpkin pies, which were later
served to the actors.

Composed and directed by Miss Helen
Barrett, ’13, Director, and Miss Whar-
ton, one of her assistants, the tableaux
strove especially to be authentic and
bring out the reciprocal help of Pilgrims
and Indians. Much original work was
done by the club leaders of the Center
in costuming. A troup of Girl Scouts
under I. Magginis, '21, were among the
players, as well as mentbers of the Girls’
Club, which K. Goldsmith, ’23, directs.
