SHIP For the third time this year the red banner has been hung on the gymna- sium; 1917 defeated 1915 in the second | game of the finals by a score of 15-6, and thus added the championship in basket-ball to her victories in hockey and water-polo. The. playing, however, was decidedly poor. This may be partly blamed on the wet field, which caused much slipping. There seemed no good reason for the continual bunching of the ‘centers and forwards, the lack of open passing, and the extraordinary number of fouls. In the second half ‘17 was often so entirely on the offensive that one of her guards, M. Thompson, was trying for goals. Seventeen, however, was less wild than ‘15 and really de- served her victory. S. R: Smith’s drib- bling featured for the Seniors and S. Jelliffe’s snappy backward passing for the Sophomores. The line-up was as follows: 1915 1917 wadeekeeika M. Willard By Ss oh cecsives F.

Trevelyan. _ Mr. George Macauley Trevelyan spoke | Friday night to one of the largest audi- ences that has assembled in Taylor Hall this year. was “Servia and Eastern Europe.” AS tion of having an unusually accurate and extended knowledge of historical facts and a literary and diverting manner of presenting them. As a lecturer he de- serves the same reputation. |spersed his detailed historical account | with charming descriptions of the little 'red Servian houses hidden among green ‘orchards, and with stories of the super-. stitions of peasant soldier§. 7 Mr. Trevel- yan began by telling of the different | | /races of the Austrian Empire and the | Balkan States, in order to explain the |jealousy and animosity between them. /He gave a short history of the Balkan States and explained their relations to one another. ‘the point of view of what he'told of Servia itself. Mr. Trevelyan has re- cently visited Servia and with his personal knowledge of its customs and government he was able to give an en- tirely different “We must revise our standards of barbarism,” he said. “We must not think of the Balkan States more bar- barous than their neighbors.” He told /us that Servian society was primitive and |democratic, the only class being that of the peasant proprietors, and the only kind of wealth, equally divided land. For this reason, he said, there is no so- ‘cial problem in Servia. The peasants jare simple, highminded men, with ‘no ‘politics except patriotism and no loyalty |except to their country!’ They are un- ‘like the Russian Slavs in that they are | ‘not melancholy or deeply religious. |They make excellent soldiers and their military organization is good. |velyan explained the astonishing vic- tories of the Servians by their freedom and the good feeling between officers and soldiers, similar to that which ex- jisted in the armies of the First Empire. | ‘He said that officers were superior to | their men only in education. They dance the quaint country dances hand in hand with their men, and when ordering a charge, they address their men in the democratic terms, “Brothers let us charge.” Mr. Trevelyan closed his lec- ture by saying that there would never be universal peace until despotism was abolished and the rights of little nations were respected. CORNELL STUDENTS’ COUNCIL At.a convocation of the whole college at Cornell last week it was voted almost | unanimously to have a Students’ Council to consider all important questions and make the centralization of authority in college more representative. The faculty and students felt that the class politics were bad, and that the college interests were not unitedly represented by any one body. The convocation marked a new era in college life and according to the editorial in the “Cornell Sun,” “the | reawakening of the undergraduate inter- ests in matters of common concern to the entire university community.” No - definite provision is made for the women | students in the new plan, but there was. no rule made against their being on the “Council.” . : The subject of his lecture | an author Mr. Trevelyan has the reputa-| He inter- | His lecture was most interesting from. idea —_of—that-country..

Three hundred and eight votes were registered in favour of send- ing the letter and 11 against it. The letter reads as follows: To the Faculty of Bryn Mawr College: Inasmuch as it has been the under- standing of the undergraduate body that the question of a rule regarding attend- ance. at lectures and Whereas, thé undergraduates desire es- pecially that the plan suggested by them at the request of President Thomas be considered by the faculty while the classes which voted upon it are still in college, and Whereas, many of the present under- graduates who plan to return to college next year would like to know in what manner attendance at lectures is to be regulated in the future; Therefore, we the Undergraduate As- sociation of ‘Bryn Mawr College, respect- fully beg the faculty of Bryn Mawr Col- lege that definite action be taken before the close of the college year on the ques- tion of a rule regarding attendance at lectures. D. Moore read the report of the Red Cross Committee; $1,174.18 has been ‘sent to the Red Cross; $1,117.75 is still to be sent; 130 woolen articles have been divided between the Red Cross and the Emergency Aid. ATHLETIC DAY COMING JUNE 2D Athletic day, with the excitement of |the Alumnz basket-ball game, the Aluni- nz procession in costume and the award- ing of cups and yellow ties, comes the | Wednesday morning during commence- ment week. This year will be particu- larly thrilling, for thén the final results of the campaign for raising money for the new athletic field will be announced. The /alumnz who are reuning this year are 1905, 1907, 1910, 1912, 1914. The custom of having the alumne procession in cos- tume was started in 1910. It has been suggested that this year the undergradu- ates have some representatives beside the Athletic Board in the procession, so as to make things even more lively. In 1913 another custom was started, that of giving a prize to the class wearing the best costume. That year this was won by 1912, wearing the garb of Amazons; and in 1914, 1911, dressed as peacocks, carried off the prize. Yellow ties were given for the first time in 1913, that year ten receiving them, while last year only seven achieved.that honor. These ties do not stand for a mere excellence in any particular sport, a person who wins one / must be above par in at least two sports and usually in three. Exceptions are sometimes made to this, and a person wins a tie because she stands for all that is best in athletics, does responsible work in the association, and is good in several sports even though she may get only as | far as sub on Varsity. On the other hand, 'a person who has played on more than fone Varsity team will not necessarily get a yellow tie, if she has not done other work for the good of athletics in general lhere at College. As this is such an im- | portant year on account of starting the 4 the faculty would reconsider this Spring | ‘new field, it is to be hoped that athletic ‘day will be a great success, and that |there will be a large and enthusiastic |audience at the game. 1915 “OFF IN A CLOUD OF DUST” On Friday, after their last classes, the | Seniors made the round of the campus, ‘saying and singing good-bye. After sing- ing on the steps of Taylor Hall, they went to the Deanery garden, where President Thomas welcomed them, saying that the garden and the large room of the Deanery ‘had been planned especially for the re- ception of the students. After President Thomas had spoken, the march was re- sumed toward Dalton, where Mary Mitch- ell Chamberlain spoke. sium, E. B. Smith’s inspiring talk on ath- letics was received with appreciation. “I am here to represent 1915's athletic bour- geoisie,” she said, and then went on to tell of the glorious achievements of the fourth team basket-ball, and ended with “Long live the athlete of the virgin hockey-skirt.”. Mary ~Goodhue, on the Library steps, drew a vivid picture of the future Library, with its esculators, roof- gardens and automat. Finally, “Where, oh, where are the grave old Seniors’? ended for the last time under Pembroke Arch, where Harriet Bradford made the closing speech. BACCALAUREATE SERMON Dr. Francis Peabody, who has for many years held the Chair of Ethics at Har- vard, will preach the Baccalaureate Ser- mon on May 30th. Dr. Peabody has writ- ten an unusual series of books on the re- lation of Christianity to social problems. It was he who started the Chapel services at Harvard as they are now held and the system of university preachers. The choir will be enlarged for the occasion and will sing Roberts’ “Seek Ye the | Lord.” FINAL DEBATE WON BY SENIORS “Resolved, That the United States should abandon the Monroe Doctrine as a part of its foreign policy,” was the question chosen for the final debate, held Thursday evening in the Chapel. The affirmative speakers were M. Willett, V. Litchfield, and D. Shipley, ‘17, and the negative speakers, M. Free, F. Hatton, H. Taft, "15. The judges were President Thomas, Dr. Fenwick, and Mrs. Smith. The debate, which on the whole was not as spirited as the final debate of the year might be expected to be, was won by the Seniors. The greatest fault seemed to be that the several points were not clearly , enough defined or strenuously enough emphasized to render them quite intel- ligible and interesting to the audience. No argument appeared as pre-eminently important and clinching. In delivering the judgment, President Thomas said the two sides were nearly even, but that for substance and soundness of argument the judges decided unanimously for 1915. She praised the presentation of 1917, espe- cially that of Miss Shipley. VASSAR’'S MAY DANCE May Day is celebrated at Vassar just at dusk. From all over the campus the Seniors come together dressed in gay light colored dresses and carrying col- ored hoops. Now in groups and now all At the Gymna-' together they dance, singing merrily the | old pastoral songs, and crown the May queen. Then as darkness falls they dis appear as quickly.as they came 2 ‘\ THE COLLEGE NEWS: The College News ?

Freshmen and others who are leaving College early and who wish to receive this last issue, should give their addresses to K. Blodgett, Rock- efeller Hall, as soon as possible: After the stress and strain of our elec- tions, Vassar’s plan of having an associa- tion which shall take in “the duties of self-government, athletics, dramatics (partially) and almost all undergraduate interests,” sounds very simple and pleas- ant. At first we think yearningly of elect- ing one board of officers and peacefully laying all the responsibility of student af- fairs on their shoulders. But on second thoughts we come to feel that our own method of dividing the burden is better. The only way of obtaining democracy in such a large association would be by forming an endless number of committees and sub-committees, and thus the very simplicity aimed for would be utterly lost. CORRESPONDENCE COLUMN The Editors do not hold themselves responsible for the opinions expressed in this column, _| To the Editor of ‘The College News”: In a former issue of the “News” you published a letter containing a suggestion to the effect that Senior singing be con- ducted with less regard to the volume of sound and more for its quality. This sug- gestion has been acted upon to some ex- tent. But the improvement is not so great as one might be led to suppose. For now that the songs are sung more softly they are almost drowned out by the continual talking and laughing which goes on. This state of affairs could, I think, be remedied by a few simple ex- pedients. For instance, if the talkers could be careful always to pitch their voices in the same key as the song which was being sung, their talking would no longer be jarringly discordant, but would sound like an extra part or accompani- ment. And if they could restrain their loud bursts of laughter to more rythmic “latest improvements” in form that can be found. Perfection. — To the Editor of “The College News”: When I came to college, I was full of enthusiasm for social work. I told the head of the settlement committee that I was ready to go to town and do any sort of work she asked me to do; my preference was a gymnasium class. By this I thought she meant a regular class, say once every two weeks, that I taught, and watched, and trained. Weeks went by and one day a hurried girl came to me,—would I go to do set- tlement work for her that same after- noon? As it happened I wasn’t busy. I might have been. I usually am. ° “We're from Bryn Mawr,” I told the lady who opened the door to us, speaking for my companion beside me, who knew as little about the job as I did. They did not expect us; but after some run- ning around they introduced us to a lady who thanked us profusely for com- ing, because she had another engage- ment and could not conduct her club herself that afternoon. And this was how we found some work. The whole slip-shod affair disgusted me so that I never made another attempt to do “settlement work.” Is this the way to arouse the interest of the volunteers— or to do efficient work? System is all I ask. Efficiency. To the Editor of “The College News”: Perhaps by means of the Correspond- ence Column I may thank the people who have done so much toward getting off the | letters to the alumne about the new ath- letic fleld. A great many people have spent much of their time during the past week in addressing, folding, writing, and stamping the 2500 letters, the last install- ment of which. were mailed on Sunday. If it had not been for their efficient aid it would have been impossible to. get the letters off so soon and to have them so complete. The willingness with which every one worked deserves more than thanks, and I trust that as a result of their efforts they will soon be rewarded with a new hockey field. To encourage them I may say that over $200 has al- ready been received from the alumne. In gratitude, ; Mary G. Branson, Pres. of the Athletic Association. To the Editor of “The College News”: I am rabid on the subject of noise in| the library. It is of course a trite sub- ject, but I take it just as seriously as if | it were new. I fancy I hear self-govern- | i ment officers talking and laughing, and MRS. ARTHUR LESLIE WHEELER _ Died May 13, 1915 . Although few of us in College knew Mrs. Wheeler personally, there are many who in a very real sense have felt her presence. Her brave patience in these long years of suffering, her unselfish de- votion to those about her, and her con- stant desire to play a worthy part in their lives, however crippled her own might be, these were traits that we all recognized and admired. Those who came to her home, bringing some form of the music she loved, went away inspired by the knowledge of her splendid courage, and the’ Christmas Carols were never sung more reverently than before her window. Mrs: Wheeler was herself an accom- plished musician, and even during her illness, by the direction of her daughter’s musical studies and by her kindly and discriminating comments on the work of those who played to her, she continued to share her gifts with others. Indeed, her thoughts always centered upon those around her, never upon herself, and at the last, knowing the end was approach- ing and facing it calmly, despite intense suffering, she yet employed. her failing strength in urging those near her to their usual tasks and pleasures. Ten years of pain, lived hourly in the shadow of a hopeless future, had but sweetened and ennobled a beautiful spirit. RESOLUTIONS PASSED BY THE UN- DERGRADUATE ASSOCIATION ON | THE DEATH OF MRS. WHEELER Whereas, The death of Mrs. Arthur Wheeler has deprived Bryn Mawr College of one who was intimately connected with it and much beloved by many of its mem- bers, be it Resolved, That we, the Undergraduate Association of Bryn Mawr College, ex- press to the members of the Wheeler family our deep regret at their loss, and be it Resolved, That a copy of these resolu- tions be presented to the members of the Wheeler family and to the faculty and be inserted in the records of The Undergrad- uate Association. EURIPIDES IN THE YALE BOWL Unfortunately it will be impossible for many of the students to see Granville | Barker's production of Greek plays in Philadelphia next week. They may, therefore, be interested in a description of the first performance of “Iphigenia of Tauris,” given May 15th in the Yale Bowl.

THE VASSAR ASSOCIATION The students of Vassar are petitioning | the faculty to let them abolish the pres- ent “Students’ Association” and organ- | ize instead “Vassar Association,” of /which the faculty and staff will be mem- bers as well as all the undergraduates | who have been at Vassar at least a semester. At present the duties of self government, athletics, dramatics (par- tially) and almost all undergraduate in- terests are under contro! of the “Stu- would be even more inclusive of color and line inthe costuming. Against the smooth, grey background of a highly conventionalized temple, the red zig-zag stripes of Iphigenia’s garments, the pink parrot-like costumes of Thoas’ soldiers, and the brilliant blues and greens of the chorus, were a source of much amuse- ment to the audience. This mirth- arousing costuming rather detracted from the dignity and tragic effect of simple, statuesque acting and exquisite words, so clearly enunciated that they --could be heard throughout the whole audience. Yet in spite of jarring ele- ments, such scenes as the arrival of Orestes and Pylades and the recogni- tion scene between Iphigenia and Orestes were impressive and moving. The chorus was one of the most beauti- ful features of the performance. The music, prepared by Professor Smith of the Yale Music Department, imitated as closely as possible the ancient models. The choral odes, sung by a perfectly trairied chorus of women, were a series of most effective Gregorian-like chants. The whole production was, if surprising, a most interesting entertainment. : SWISS RED CROSS WORK Miss Ella Riegel has been kind enough to allow “The College News” to print a letter received by her from Camille Eris- mann, 1900, about the relief work that is being carried on in Switzerland. Writing from Geneva, Miss Erismann says: “We still have daily arrivals of refu- gees, four or five hundred at a time; they stay here a short time and are sent on into Savoy. During ten days in March, what they call “les grands blessés,” French and Germans passed through here on their way home. The Swiss Red Cross organized their reception at the station, where food was served to them in the train and gifts of fruit, chocolate and tobacco were made in large quanti- ties. They all seemed cheerful and happy to be going home. The blind were the only ones who seemed depressed; it is so dreadful to think of their long existence in the dark! Wight hundred Germans were exchanged against. eighteen hundred French, and it is very likely that others’ will be exchanged later on. Work is still going on at the agency for the prisoners, though we have less to do now than in the autumn, for in the fighting in the trenches fewer men disap- pear or are made prisoners. But much is being done in the way of sending food and clothing to the soldiers in the Ger- man concentration camps. The appeals from the men are pitiful and many of them, who live in the invaded districts of northeastern France can receive nothing from home and do not even know where their families are. Many people here and there send pack- ages to these soldiers who are most grate- ful for the least thing done for them. The International Red Cross here sends all parcels free of charge; sometimes, un- fortunately, they do not reach their desti- ination. Bread is one of the things they |most asked for, and at one time so much ‘of it was sent that the Swiss government \had to limit the amount sent in one pack- age to two kilos, otherwise there would not have been enough left in the country for the need of the citizens. The sewing at the French Red Cross societies for the French hospitals has been going on all winter and many large parcels of sheets, pillow cases, shirts, drawers, etc., have found their way to the hospitals either near the front or farther away, where the convalescents are sent. The Belgians have not been forgotten or the Servians, and money or garments have been sent to them. In spite of all this work we feel that there is yet much to do. On all sides work is ng on and funds. are being collected tor the relief of the many sufferers.’ NEW BOOKS IN THE DENBIGH FICTION LIBRARY Miss Donnelly has recently presented the Denbigh fiction library with Ernest Poole’s latest book, “The Harbor,” of which r. Edwards spoke so highly. She has also given Mrs. Anne Douglas Sedgewick’s “The Encounter” and “A Man’s World” by the author of “Comrade Yetta.” To Miss Donnelly’s support, the fiction library owes its present flourish- ing condition. Among the other new books are “Chris-.. topher,” by Richard Price, “Clayhanger” and “Buried Alive,” by Arnold Bennett; “The Reef,” by Edith Wharton; “Simon the Jester,” by William J. Locke; “Bas- sett,”. by Tallentyne; and the “Hoosier Chronicle,” by M. Nicholson. The librarian has asked that Seniors and others bring all their books of fiction, which they no longer care to keep, to her. French and German books are wanted as well as English. FOUNDER'S DAY AT VASSAR Last week on Founder’s Day a new Hall was opened at Vassar. This Build- ‘ing, “Taylor Hall,” will be used by the ‘art department as a museum, THE COLLEGE NEWS THE NEW BOOK ROOM The “American History Told By Con- temporaries,” by Albert Bushnell Hart, | is among the most interesting of the new books. In four volumes the editor gives about eight hundred extracts not only from the writings of famous Americans like Washington, Hamilton, and Lincoln, but from those of countless others. The selections are taken rather from letters and journals than from constitutional documents, as the editor aims to “bring before the minds of Americans the life of their forefathers as the latter saw it,” rather than an exact chronicle of events. “The German War Book,” edited by J. A. Morgan, consists of a translation of the “Kriegsbrauch im Landkriege,” is-| sued by the German general staff. Pre- | ceding it are four essays by the editor on German diplomacy and culture, in which | he points out how this handbook for the | use of German officers contains “the only | laws recognized by the German Staff,” and how in these the “Hague Conve | tions are treated as scraps of | paper.” “The Wonderful Visit,” by H. G. Wells, has been placed in the New Book Room. | “The Confessions of Frederick the | Great,” edited by Sladen, are seven es: says on politics, religion, etc., written by) this king for the direction of his suc- | cessor. The editor considers that Bern-| hardi’s ideas are to be ‘traced back to| those of Frederick, and as Bernhardi him- | self says he owes much to Treitschke, the | latter’s essay on Frederick is appended | by the editor as of interest in this con-| nection. “Problems of Power” (new revised edition), by W. M. Fullerton, “represents the author’s vision of the state of Europe and the world on the eve of the Great} War of 1914.” As Mr. Fullerton claims | that “to chronicle the doings of any in-| dividual nation without writing at the same time the history of every other | peoples is no longer possible,” his book is a thorough study of international poli- | tics from 1866 to the present. | VARSITY EASILY DEFEATS ica DELPHIA The Varsity baskét-ball team easily de- feated Philadelphia Saturday by a score | - of 29-7. The game was not a particularly | good one, for Philadelphia had had no} practice, and so was no real match for | Varsity. The playing was wild on both sides, Varsity, however, doing some very good fast passing. Bryn Mawr was also much better at shooting goals, this being partly due to the fact that the players were not very well guarded. Miss Fox played the best game for Philadelphia.

The weather was real picnic weather and the _ stunts brought roars of laughter. There was a clever parody of “The Dark Lady,” and E. Jencks and T. Smith gave a playlet called “A Pair of Lunatics,” in which two people, meeting at a dance in a lun- atic asylum, mistake each other for lun- atics. The most enthusiastic applause was won by Ryu Sato when she played and sang some Japanese songs. 1915 PICNIC SONG Tune—Oceana Roll.
