JACKET” COMES § TO BRYN MAWR On Saturday, May ist, at 8 “YELLOW . m,, the e “Yellow Jacket.” The performance will be given for the benefit of the Belgian Relief nagium. Reserved seat tickets, one dol- lar, may be obtained from Dean Maddi- son, Treasurer of the Play Committee. The “Yellow Jacket” is one of the most well known, of recent plays, running in New York for five months last year with crowded houses. The play is described as a Chinese drama, produced in the Chinese manner. It is the presentation rather than the story which is unique. All the details of a Chinese theatre are faithfully carried out from the imported costumes, rich with real oriental em- broidery, to the property man who, in the performance of his duties becomes intensely interesting to a western audi- ence. The mother, in dying, ascends a ladder to heaven, and by the simple de- vice of holding a cloth in front of the victim’s head an objectional character is easily beheaded right in front of you. Yet even the amusement and curiosity aroused by these, to us, odd bits of stage business, do not take away from the story itself, which we are told has an interest all its own. The Coburn Players have won distinc- tion as interpreters of classic drama. During the last ten years they have ap- peared under the auspices of almost every educational institution in Amer- ica. Every detail of their performances is most carefully worked out, “every scene is a delight of shade and color, and every costume true to character and period.” It is also interesting to note that the players pride themselves on their clearness of diction and that the actors are selected with this in view as well as for their acting ability.

SEMI-FINAL DEBATE NEXT WEDNES- DAY Teams Are Chosen The end of the debating season is near. Next Wednesday night the first semi-final will be held. The resolution is upon a subject of general interest and one which has been a general favorite this winter in intercollegiate debates. In fact, this evening Syracuse and Cornell will be de- bating it in Syracuse. It is: “Resolved, That. the United States shall increase her armament.” The Senior team is, Hatton, captain; M. Free, H. Taft, and 1. Foster (a}ternate); M. Senior captain, EB. Hough- and later working under Signor Tyrone; Miss Wesson, French style, learning first at Bryn Mawr and later being a pupil of Major Ranlet of Boston. The matches were good and much en- joyed by both the competitors and the audience. The Varsity team, under the able captainship of Edna Rappallo, was the best all-round team that the under- graduates have yet produced. First Round BD. Kirkbride, ’96, vs. HE. Rapallo, ’15— 5-0. B.

BRYN MAWR HOLDS FIVE WORLD RECORDS Bryn Mawr at present holds the records. for College women’s track events for the broad jump, the hop-step-and-jump, hurl ball and 75-yard dash, with Randolph Macon second in the first two events, and Syracuse in the hurl ball, and Lake Erie in the 75-yard dash. Bryn Mawr and Lake Erie tie for the record in the 100- yard dash. Vassar is the first in the bas- ketball throw and in the baseball throw. Randolf Macon is first in both broad jumps and second in the hop-step-and- jump. Syracuse is the first in the 50- yard dash and Wells has the best running high jump. Other Event. Bryn Mawr. Record.

Randolph Macon has an interesting system, for they have adopted a rather low standard in each event, and every inch or tenth of a second over this stan- dard is counted one point for each com- petitor. Each class can enter five for ‘every event. and is handicapped if there are not five that come up to the standard. It is thought that this gives more chance to the average competitor, while it does not diminish the honor of the individual star. JOHN J.
