Price 10 Cents PLANS FOR STUDENTS’ BUILDING BEING MADE ‘Necessity for’Two Auditoriums is Hard to Combine With Archi- tectual Beauty eid o. MISS PARK ADDRESSES ALUMNAE Two related crises, one recent and un- -expected’ the other more remote, were the subject of Presiderit Park’s speech to the Alumnae of Philadelphia last Monday during a luncheon at the Bellevue-Strat- ford. One day Mrs. Collins, the Director of Publicity of Bryn Mawr College, got in touch with the insurance company to de- termine where films of last May -day might be stored: She found that though the college was totally unaware of. it, new and very stringent fire laws had recently been passed, which literally forbade not only the showing of films in either Taylor Hall or the gymnasium but which also cut down the seating capacity for all college functions. Miss Park suddenly realized that the college had been doing something which she always attempted to avoid. She had _always inveighed against the attitude that if one were doing anything really wrong, someone in authority would interfere and forbid it, and that was the very attitude that Bryn Mawr had tacitly adopted. Her decision was that we must have adequate provisions for student activity in the near future, but that in the meanwhile there must be close adherence to regulations at every point. This results in a warm feel- ing of righteousness, but a deplorable lack of hospitality. Even if we could properly support our Music Department, there would be no placé in which it could ‘per- form to the advantage of outsiders. Presi- dent Comfort, of Haverford, immediately upon hearing of our predicament, offered the use of Roberts Hall, which has been gratefully accepted for the Glee Club per- formance of “The Pirates of Penzance,” but there are obvious practical difficulties in the way of using it for any extended period of time. In Taylor Hall it was Motenerly possible to seat 350, but adherence to the law will cut that to 290, scarcely more than half the college. The gymnasium could, formerly be counted upon to seat 1100, while its new quota is between 500 and 600. A device to take care of the movable seats is being installed. How the problem of _ announcing the European Fellowship to an eager college will be solved is as yét unknown, Commencement has two solu- tions—to radically reduce the invitation or to take the fearful chance of clear weaher and use the cloisters. There are two problems in that a small room for purely college assemblies is needed, as well as a larger meeting place where we can properly entertain guests. The cost of building both is prohibitive, and having the music room thrown into the larger auditorium on occasion is im- practicable, on account of the sloping efloor of the latter, so the solution seems to be that offered by Ralph Adams Cram, and) used effectively by him at Wellesley, of the architectural gallery, adopted from the old New England churches, and de- signed so as to be sa tam when . not # Nes : bf the inn latin was unex- that of the “Music Department is, Was ever a precarious - one, is did not cause much excite- ause the, project was from the CONTINUED ON PAGE 2 ae “shots from guards to centres to forwards, “Towards the end the playing became wild- and had great variety, including piano ‘Rachmaninoff ... realized.

Bryn Mawr succeeded in getting out and sending the ball up the field’ in quick who threw baskets with almost automatic ease. In the beginning Baltimore’ s team seemed surer than Varsity. Hurling the ball apparently without care, the invaders seemed to sense their team’s positions. Their weakness lay in their shooting, which was done almost entirely by. one forward fed by the other. The first half continued to be under the control of the Bantams, Then,.with a quick leap, G, Leewitz, ’26, intercepted the ball and gave Varsity the snortn to use the almost machine-like pass sfp the field ending in the inevitable basket, One remarkable goal -was shot from the side by Miss Bliss, on whose unerring eye and swift throwing Baltimore’s entire scoring depended. ‘ In the second half Bryn Mawr had the ball from the first toss-up in spite of the renewed efforts of Baltimore.

For their convenience there are huge dining roofs in an upper story of the building looking out over the bridges and house- tops. : One page of advertising for one week in The Saturday Evening Post costs $7000. At that the manufacturer is getting his fame cheap at the price. Miss Neill, who was a Bryn Mawr girl, said that in policy the Post aimed to pre- Mr. Lorimer, the editor, personally ‘directs about one-third of the literary matter of each issue. For instance, feeling that the younger generation’ needed some sense of the olden days and the pioneers, he per- suaded Emerson Hough to contribute his frontiers, which resulted in “The Covered Wagon” -and- “North of 36.” The ‘Saturday Evening Post is an American institution and its position, ac- cording to the analysis for 1924, is largely due to the personal editorship of Mr. George Horace Lorimer. “THE PLAYERS” GIVE COMEDIES IN WYNDHAM MUSIC ROOM “The Rehearsal, ’ and “The Reluctant Lion” by A. Shires, Well Done “The Players,” a group of undergrad- uates interested in acting, producing and writing plays, presented on Friday and Saturday evenings, February 20 and 21, a one-act comedy, “The Reluctant Lion,” by Anne gShiras, ’25, and a Restoration comedy, “The Rehearsal,” by George Villiers. * The choice of di plays for perform- ance shows the policy of “The Players,” who wish to produce plays interesting and valuable to the actor and producer even if not popularly successful, and to the college author a chance to see his own work on a stage.

She will be succeeded next fall by Mrs. Helen Taft Manning, ’15, daughter’ ‘Justice Taft.” Speaking -at the Alumnae luncheon on January 31,.President Park made the following announcement: “One great change in the college next year will come when Miss Bontecou leaves the Dean’s office. She came to Bryn Mawr at the urgent request: of the college in 1922, the year of President Thomas’ retirement, -to fill.the unexpired term of Miss Hilda W. Smith after three years of onerous and valuable work for the college she leaves at the end of the year and enters on graduate work at. Rad- cliffe ‘which follows the line of her special interest. “The office of the Sinn has never been so complicated nor have its interests ever been so varied as now. This) development of the office will certainly continue and increase, Dean.Bontecou has carried the laborious and often monotonous duties steadily and spiritedly. She has contribu- ted to a high degree the intelligence, jus- tice and generosity witch are the founda- tions of an executive position, “The loss to me is a great one personally. Our association has naturally been Close and intimate and I have fousad her loyalty, her responsibility ‘and her interest unfail- ing. ‘The college will miss an able execu- tive and a wise counsellor.” ‘' Mrs. Manning and her husband, Fred- erick’ J.

While she was in college her States, and at the end of her sophomore year she’ went to Washington to help her mother entertain at the White House. Returning to Bryn Mawr in 1913 she took her degree “magna cum laude” in 1915, specializing in history, economics and politics. In the fall gf 1915 she entered the graduate. department of history at Yale and the following June was awarded her M.A. From 1917 to 1919 she was dean of the college, and acted as presi- dent in the absence of President Thomas in 1919-20.

THE CAVEWOMAN AT HOME In an agé of machines and ‘higher edu- cation for women the virtues of the primi- tive female are forgotten. The cultured woman with a vote no 18Ager regards the spinning-wheel as a noble instrument and forgets that bread is the staff of life. She cannot remember her grandmother in the prairie schooner, let alone. her ancestor in the cave-who stole honey from -the bees and carrot’ from the rabbits and knitted wampum jackets for her infants, The woman who lives on committees will, as ‘Stella Benson has said, on dying take her place permanently on “the great commit- tee which sits around the glassy sea.” But the Bryn Mawr girl shows encour- aging statistic tendencies, even if her place is in the library, not the home. The girl who waters and nurtures her bulbs is a very primitive creature, puzzling over the wonderful mystery of growing things. The maternal instinct has really not been thwarted by the intellectual life, but mere- ly transferred to flowers. And the violent rivalry among fellow-agriculturalists is like the dear past days when cavemen stole one another’s pumpkins. Bryn Mawr, “the aristocracy of intellect, is full of “noble savages.” oui HARVARD AND THE HONOR SYSTEM From Cambridge comes word that Har- vard has decided against the honor sys- tem. The reason given is that the large number of students living outside dormi- . tories and the size of the student body in —_ general destroys coherence and prevents a strong group feeling. ‘ It.is time for everyone to face this prob- lem if. mere humbers and a slight differ- ence in living conditions can so effect the honor system. Doth this: mean that the moment an institution grows to a cer- tain size it must. of necessity install a different system? Is mutual trust an idle fancy, and integrity of work an impos- sible ideal? No! Again and again the contrary can be seen in business and throughout all society. Nations could not exist, as such, if this were the case, _ for no government can provide a police- man for each citizen.. Moreover, we have only to look into history for striking ex-| amples of the: fatlacy of the spy system. We can only say that Harvard must have been unusually discouraged. All this excitement about the coming of the end of the world must have ruffled her other- wise quiet nerves. Or was it only Friday, the eirneentn? ‘ To the Editor of TRe-College News: | substitute or the regular the citizens’ jury. This is a body made up of twelve member8, drawn by lot and the police commissioner, from a list of three hundred citizens who ‘are officially con- nected neither’ with the theatre nor with reform movements. - Through the co- operation’ of the Equity their disapproval, by.a majority of nine to twelve, will ef# fectively hobble the progress of any piay in New York, But, however. deserved the punishment be,. it does seem wasteful to “buy, cast, stage and produce a play only to have it wrecked after ten days’, run. Though it’s less entertaining for the chosen twelve, ought they not really, for the sake of ac- tors, managers and public, to censor plays before they are purchased and produced? (The Editors do.not-hold themselves re- sponsible for the opinions expressed in this column.) ~Phere-are two possible policies ws paper such as the Lantern may hold, poli- cies leading to very different productions. The first is conservative, having for its primary aim to supply its readers with the best magazine possible, and its therefore small. list of contributors with whatever benefits may be derived from such limited publication of their work, The editors of such a magazine sincerely and conscien- tiously try to sort out the best from the material at hand. If they are sometimes too exclusive, tending toward precious- ness, the faults are at least of omission rather than of commission. The general level is respectable, and there is occasion- ally some touch of excellence. This has been the policy of the Lantern for the, past years. The other oa sifives to be of use to the contributor before it tries to achieve its own excellence. It becomes inclusive rather than exclusive, taking in all writ- ing which has some germs of merit, which seems in any way tending towards. a de- sirable state. With such a magazine, every one in college who is interested in ewriting would have an opportunity to see their work in print and to receive the criticism ‘of a wider public than that of an English‘reader and—for the bolder—a small circle of friends. The choice rests with the college. It.is obvious that the Lantern cannot pretend to compete with magazines which are neither campus bound nor age limited as to their contributors. It seems to me prab- able that what good qualities it has of respectability and general high standard may well be jeopardized in the interests of being of service to a far greater number of people than are affected.now.. It would if it adopted the “second policy, offer to its contributors a sort of literature pad- dock in “which to try out their experi- ments. It would offer its readers a maga- zine whose lowered standard might find compensation in greater freshness and interest. A magazine following this course would, however, be-even more de- pendent upon the co-operation of the col- lege as a whole than is the Lantern in its present state. The editors would like an expression of opinion as to which type| of magazine the college wishes to support. Barpara LIno, 25.

A.,Cabinet.y “Why ‘not speak in Vespers?” “To .this question the average person would make one of two replies: Either that she has not been. sufficiently urged 4} to do so by the Christian Association, or |that she certainly is not so conceited as to suppose that she has ‘anything worth saying. : A The former answer indicates that there Tare some people in college who do not understand that speaking in Vespers is not compulsory or invitational, but volun- tary. The opportunity is open to any graduate or undergraduate who has an ethical, philosophical or religious problem or idea, which she would like to explain. In order to speak in Vespers you need not be inspired with’ some great message. All that is necessary is the willingness to take a sporting chance that some small idea which is useful to you may also be useful to the community in which you live. I am. convinced that Vespers is really It is easy enough to express ideas among small groups of friends and acquaintances, but Vespers gives us a chance to reach other people with whom we have less contact. People as a whole, I think, like Ves- pers and would hate to see it discarded. Two freshmen, not long ago, told, a sad tale of having gone to Taylor on Sunday at 6 P.

The department has,.in spite of antagonism, and the feel- ing that it was an intruder, usurping the place of more-needed reforms, made a very real place for itself. It seems to have become something that permeates college. It is midway between the strenuous work | and: equally strenuous. play of the students, affording an intellectual pleas- ure of a relaxing sort. It touches many more students than attend the classes, and makes itself felt in aay concerts and informal music. Mrs. Carroll Miller, chaetvsnis for Penn- sylvania, set aside as obvious the needs of the college, and concerned herself with ways and means of satisfying them. Bryn Mawr has ‘been recognized as beautiful, but has lacked something, an atmosphere, which music can supply. Philadelphia’s- close connection with Bryn Mawr must first be recognized; it.is'yp to it and to the immediate district to raise $112,000, but since over $600,000 was raised in the en- dowment drive, this should not bé im- possible. The purpose of the former drive, which was to assist the starv- ing professors, was more _. spectacular, but no more important, and this idea can be as easily sold as the other. The University.,of Pittsburgh has successfully “sold” the idea of a 52-story building to the city, proving that it can be done. keynote should be. not co-operation but participation. Sixty-five thousand dollars has already been subscribed. . PRESIDENT OF CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION LEADS CHAPEL M. Stewardson Speaks on Part of Audience in Religious Service Chapel’ on Sunday evening, February 23, was led by Margaret Stewardson, 25, president of the Christian Association. This was the first of the short services to be held now and then during the spring under student leadership in place of the | customary one-hour chapel. “A religious service is defined by the dictionary as being ‘an act of spiritual rev- erence’,” said Miss Stewardson, “Very often, when we think of a church or chapel service, we forget that it is an act on our part, a voluntary attitude of mind. A service is not for those who ex- pect to get something out of it, nor, I think; must one strive to give something. Taking part in a service is, rather, a let- ting go of all the petty little things which make up one’s life and” being for a time quiet with the very. best of oneself and of everyone else.” “Some people,” she continued, “are able to carry with them the quality of a service in the midst of every-day life. It is not that they are less critical or less gay, but rather they are more of something else. Partly, I suppose, ita matter of tem- perament, but largely, I am sure, it is a matter of habit. They have voluntarily a quality of reverence and quietness which makes them restful and inspiring. 1 think that. such people love very much all the things that go dn around them and there- fore know how little they understand. ‘ose who possess the quality of rever- ence possess it because they have taken pains and thought and have practised it. They deliberately can put themselves into the quiet and reverent attitude, not only toward other: people, but also “toward and_the events of their own lives. To possess such a reverence and peace, as everyone can, is to possess the peace of. God. ee ae t ANOTHER PAPER BY ‘FERREE AND RAND.

The costumes were simple, but skilfully contrived with a keen eye for color. The staging was.remarkably successful for the small space at the actors’ disposal. “The Players” must be congratulated on their petformance as well as_ their choice of plays. To the “critic in the pit,” the brilliant audience of Friday night ‘land the drama enthusiasts of Saturday night (even though some of the last were inclined to view “The Rehearsal” seri- ously), the plays were a real success. In the second of his Sunday afternoon discussions of “Science and Religion,” un- der the auspices-of the Christian Associa- tion, Dr. Hornell Hart, professpr. of Sociology at Bryn Mawr, talked 6f the evidence of an after life. He began by reading a selection which all thought rational, interesting, and wor- thy of consideration. “More people than you think have the impulse toward automatic just a-matter of letting go of mind con- trol, while setting some limits to what you want to include.
