Barber, ’25, retiring president, sub- mitted her report, in which she described the work of the Association during the past year. Of the legislature, she said that “first, it guaranteed a quorum, and secondly, it insured a wider and more _ intelligent knowledge of the business at hand.” “Within the. Association,” she went on, “other important changes have been ' made. First and foremost is the new position of the Curriculum Committee. Last fall it became apparent’ that the committee must come to some sort of an agreement with the faculty or dissolve. President Park said that the Faculty Curriculum Commigtee would probably be very glad to have a joint meeting to discuss the situation. This meeting was held carly in the second semester with the following results which are embodied in the constitution of the committee: “The function of the Curriculum Com- mittee shall be to formulate its own opinions and to obtain information upon college opinion concerning the college opinion at the a request of the faculty, “Reports handed in to the faculty shall state separately the vote of each class and the vote of the committeé. In case of a divis‘on of opinion in the committee, the c'asses of the voters shall be apecified: four Juniors, three Sophomores and two Freshmen, from which at least three Juniors, two Sophomores, and one Freshman must be appointed for the fol- lowing year.

The Pennsylvania team showed better offensive work, and in the first few matches put Bryn Mawr altogether on the defensive. Towards the end Bryn Mawr gained confidence and won six matches in close succession. The Bryn Mawr team was more alert than the Penn- sylvania girls, but showed a decided lack of experience. E. Millspaugh, ’26, starred for Bryn Mawr, winning three out of four matches. : Both teams had been _ previously coached by Mr. Leonardo Terrone, so the contest was more a matter. of practice than preparatory instruction.

Saturday ‘waited in particular for an answer to the question “Are Varsity Dramatics enough better than class plays to warrant the supplanting of the latter?” To. one observer at least the answer séemed obviously to be in the affirmative, and for We are used to charming set- to effective cos- (Specially this reason. tings in our class plays, tumes, and to several good actors in each cast, but we have not been accustomed to seeing plays in which the minor roles’ were really ably sustained, in which consequently the total effect was satisfactory. In this our most recent Bryn Mawr _ production, however, the general level of the acting was so high that one could not but feel that the day of the class play had gone forever. One ‘finds it difficult to comment sepa- rately upon the single qualities of our School for Scandal—its costuming, scenery, music —hecause of the unusual harmony of the whole. But even the layman could not be unaware of the skill which went to the achieving of this harmony—the subtlety with which the colors of costume and “setting were blended, thes charm of the musical entries and exits, the delicacy of the pan- tomime by which the awkwardness of the usual amateur curtains was avoided. To this sophisticated, gaily-colored world, Scandal seemed completely attuned.

While shé lacked the genuine high spirits which alone can excuse her verbal cruelties. to Sir Peter, her vivacity of expression and gesture was charming. In the scandal scene, Lady | reazle’s difficult part was particularly well wm real zest of the scandal-mongering little grande-dame in the gaiety of her malice and thé-whole-heartedness of her laughter.
