Vincent Millay, was .presented in Goodhart Hall under the auspices of the Varsity Players. Continuing their practice of allowing one .week only for rehearsals, the Players #z1:n .proved what excep- tional results they can obtain, by short and concentrated effort. Although this play was‘ less difficult to perform than “Riders to the Sea” and did not there- fore leave such a profound impression on the audience, nevertheless, under the direction of C. Dyer,.’31, it attained an. equal success. In fact the lines were much more distinctly audible in the production Thursday night, partly because the players spoke more slowly. M. Drake, ’31; in the role of Colum- bine, gave perhaps the most finished performance, as was expected by those of us-who ‘are familiar-with-her acting. Her technique and pantomime are un- usually professional, her stage presence displaying ease and a_ spontaneity of action. In a charmingly whimsical manner. she twitched her. short tulle skirt and followed the indifferent Pier- _ In Pierrot, P. Putnam, ’32, was confronted with a part more difficult than the others. She carried it well, however, showing possibilities of great- er success with more training and ex- periences L. Thurston, ’31, in the minor part of Cothurnus, added: a- comical note, and H. Thomas, ’31, as Thyrsis, though a little stage-conscious, in other respects gave a satisfactory perform- The role of Corydon was played most-effectively “by C. Sullivan; 30. In one part Cothurnus says: “The audi- ence will forget,” and in that sorrow- ful moment as Corydon is dying, the. audience did forget. -Miss Sullivan contributed a sweetness and a sadness to the little tragedy which was truly moving, so that’we were almost” dis- turbed rather than amused when. Coth- »urnus slammed shut his book. Thus after seeing “Aria da Capo” and “Riders to the Sea” we await with increasing interest the next perform- ance e of the Players. F ighting Varsity . Suffers Defeat ~—Atthougir Att Phitadelphia “de feared 1 Varsity 7-1 on Saturday, November 16, the score was closer than had been feared, considering Varsity’s record this fall. Esther Thomas was the heroine of the game, this being her first appearance as goal. She with- stood the steady bombardment from All Philadelphia’s forwards with _re- -markable success, and her stopping and clearing were among the best points of the game. The first haff, while the teams were still fresh, furnished by far the best hockey, although the early playing was slow and messy. Collier and Ullom filled their places as_half- backs with great skill, and remained Varsity’s mainstays throughout the They were quick at overtaking and almost unerring in their attack. Among the forwards, Totten. dis- tinguished herself in the first half, when the play was largely on the right. She was equally good in tackling back and in taking passes, and her dodging was perfectly timed and very success- ful. Varsity’s only goal-was made in the first half by Longacre, who ‘caught the ball after Totten had carried it up the field, and shot it beautifully into the cage. Pa The first half ended 3-1; All Phila- delphia broke through in the second half to score four times. The backs played nobly, but they were winded, and the All Philadelphia forwards de- veloped skill which was unhinted- in the first half.

NEW -PLAN SUCCEEDS On r, November, 14, Mrs. Jackson Fleming, the well-known trav- Thursday eler and lecturer, was guest at a tea in the Music Room. Mrs. Fleming, who has traveled extensively in Russia and conversant with conditions spoke on that subject at Bryn Mawr last, year... Consequently she was familiar to most of her audience. “It is necessary for an understanding of present-day Russia,’ began Mrs. Flem- ing, “to realize that Russia, is working toward a doctrine of absolute collec- tivity, and that this experiment would have failed. had “not Ford, Owen Young and other great American fin- anciers. gone to the rescue. The strength Of the doctrine of collectivity is best illustrated by the case of the is. very there, Russian boy taken from the wild. law= téss life; to which he was accustomed, by a locksmith, who educated him and made him happy in the. possession of a wrist watch and a radio. The Rus- sian newspapers were filled with com- plaints against this locksmith, since he had given the boy a lust for pos- sessions training him’ against the col- lective. The most elisetive expression of the doctrine-is found in the factory where units are organized into clubs. All factory workers merge their egos in this collectivity making the factory their home, leaving their babies im the creche, and young children in the kin- dergarten. These factories are like temples of the new religious doctrine of—collectivity.- Children” are trained not to believe in God or: they will be- come soul-encumbered and not have the proper reverence for the collective. There must ‘be no careerists in thege groups for every. one must strive to merge himself in the ideal. > The new doctrine worked very well in the factories, but great difficulty was found in teaching’ the peas®nt the value of such a system. He was a distinct indiyidual-and as such had to be fought. Teachers went out to e€plain the col- lective notion, promising manufactured articles in retarn for -the grain which Russia needed. The‘ peasants, how- ‘ever, having discovered that the prom; ised -articles—did—not--come,—kept--their- wheat and continued in their old sim- ple, acquisitive way of life. Russia then introduced the motion picture into peasant communities as propaganda. to show American industrial and agricul- tural ‘communities. The peasants be- came interested in. this idea of America removed to Russia, but as they wquld not give their wheat to pay for manu- factured articles the- government was forced to seek outsidé aid in their plan. Mr. Ford, Mr. Young and the Mc- Donald Company of Chicago sponsored the new system of the Five-Year plan to help the peasant realize the collec- tive notion. tractor -was--failing~in America he started factories in Ireland and all over Europe with Russia as his market for this vast output. So America is helping to establish the revolution and a doctrine of suppression of ‘the in- dividual, and. Russians have a tem- porary idea of liking us. This is-amaz- ing in a country in which boys and girls cannot enter the advanced schools if they have a parent who is engaged ‘in buying and selling for profit—what is known as a Nep man or woman. Such a child desiring an’ education must first renounce his parents. These New Economic Policy people have be- come outcasts and the young must help ‘to make them-so. . Another feature of the new doctrine is that every boy and girl is trained to have.a world mind and to be able to teach {these ideas to others—every member a teacher.

St. Stephen’s became a unit of the was based on the working out of the new practice which -gives the faculty of his institution the opportunity of creat- ing, “the small .college with the univer- sity mind.” “The new system, he added, makes pos- sible. the development of small colleges, “each largely self-governing and living its own life, but all of them taught by scholars banded firmly to one another and.-to the research scholars in the com- mon life of the university.” Explains Benefit to Teachers. The one drawback which Dr. Bell said he believes will ‘cause the eventual aban- donment of the most firmly intrenched small colleges is the natural limitation of the viewpoints of. scholars compris-/ ing their teaching staffs. ~Taking for example a teacher in biology, he described the secluded condition as follows : “Research opportunities are rarely /of- fered to him.

An- other cementing experience has.been. the visits of administrative officers and heads of departments from Morningside Heights.” : Tells of Other Expériments. Three ‘other large universities also are working in different ways toward con- serving “the values of the American col- lege that once was with all the magnifi- sity-college,” Dr.. Bell pointed.,out. « St. Louis Uftiversity, a Catholic insti- tution, has several units in Missouri, he said; Harvard University is experiment- ing with a plan through which students yniversity, classroom instruction, and Pennsylvania’ University has,delegated a beard to formulate plans to-establish sev- eral small and distinct colleges. “Insofar as one year’s experience can reveal,” —-he--said--of the Columbia-St.: Stephen’s experiment, “to create a small country college within the university is. not only. entirely practicable but full of prémise..

Continued from Page One practice of teaching is found in the case of the Siberian peasants who are being taught to organize. Large farms are devoted to mass production of. cotton and to instilling the idéea-of collectivity. The teachérs are trying to give world- whom there are so many in this neigh- borhood. The theater is used in spread- ing propaganda, where the story of Sacco and Vanzetti is dramatized with Mohammedans and peasants ins the cast to show what -happens to /Com- munists in America. Active revolution- . aries are made by this means. To teach the peasants and to ‘establish close connections with India, which is facing a crisif in its approaching ulti- matum to England demanding do- minion status, the model republic of Tajikstan has .been: formed. with - its capital, at Stalinbad. This republic is going to manufacture cotton cloth for Indian, Afghanistah, and Persian markets, while the Afghans are taught the world idea of collectivism in order that they may t¢dch the Indians and prepare India for communism. ~*~ Mrs. Fleming then explained the failure of the new economic policy which is im such disfavor now. When the people had become accustomed to the idea of/ collectivism ‘they..bevan, to complain to the’ collective of the ‘un- fair profits of the Nepmen who were in leagué with capital. Many of them were arfested and the Newer Economic Policy or Five-Yéar plan was instituted with outside help from America. By’ this /plan- rich peasants and Nepmen ‘| must be, ostracized and done away with and the peasants must be taught the doctrine of collectivity in farming. It is hoped in Russia this: will result in a Suropean economic confederation to replace the present political confedera- tions.

Take, for example, the influence of vitamins on Vassar. It is nothing like ' what might have been expected. Vassar girls are getting only eleven per cent. of their calories from fruits and: vege- tables, when, according to Hunt's stand- ards (Hunt, C. L., Good Proportions in the Diet... U. S. Dept. Agr.

The figures reveal, although indirectly, the sinister influence the slim silhouette ‘has had on these young ladies.* Their dietary ts—or was when this particular research was made . some years ago—dis- tinctly deficient in fatty foods, as well as in honey, molasses and corn. syrup.

Even the All Philadelphia team, which - ordinarily plays beautiful hockey, was less organized in its passing than usual. The slowness of the game was due largely to the slippery. condition of the field and the blame for much of the poor shooting can also be laid_to that. Although neither Bryn Mawr nor All Philadelphia. played as pretty hockey as we had hoped for, we found the game and particularly the first half, more exciting than had been expected.

Swarthmore Dange Following the annual Haverford- Swarthmore soccer game at Swarth- more on Friday afternoon, November 22, a tea dance will be held in the Bond Memorial ‘hall by the Liberal Club of Swarthmore College. The event, which will last from four to six o'clock wilhstart almost imme- diately after the close of the soccer game. Music will be provided by Duke Terry and his Creole Boys, from Louisiana. The. orchestra is famous . for its syncopation of “hot’¢tihes. As one of the purposes of the dance is to ‘raise money, thus enabling the ‘Liberal Club to bring prominent. speak- ers to Swarthmore, a charge of a dollar and a half a couple will be made. RED CROSS Continued From Page Three in the atmosphere of a center of higher learning was afforded at the University of North Carolina, where Red Cross representatives gave first aid.instruc-| _ “Yion, first to a police officers’ group, which. so impressed the heads of the institution as to lead them to request special lectures to a class of athletic coaches, composed of students from nine States. These university contacts of the Red Cross are fitting cap-stones to founda- tions laid. in the primary grades, and extending through high school and pre- paratory. years, modifications of the aforementioned Red Cross _ courses being used, with credits granted by a number of schools for completion. The combination of i¢fusion of ideals of service with practicaPinstruction tn- abling the individual student to rerider such service in a material as well as spiritual sense, makes. the appeal of the Red Cross. It leads, as the student matures, to a deeper interest frequently exemplified in community service in later life. Here, too, the Red Cross stands ready, its local Chapters the -medium for. such service.

Harvard’s' Golden Mean -The attraction of Wellesley girls for- Harvard men, if one is to judge by the amount of mail which goes out daily, from the Brattle Square Post’ Office sta- tiotf” is still the greatest in the colleges of the North. A recent count takeri at the post office through which most Harvard mail goes an its outward trip reveals that an aver- age of sixty letters a day is sent by students to. Wellesley College. To: Smith go half as many, thirty pér day. Vassar girls, receive but twenty a day, and Bryn Mawr places a poor fourth with but: twelve daily: Evidently the Wellesley girl is a sort of golden mean. Students are familiar with the studious Vassar girl, the social Smith type, and the athletic maiden of Bryn. Mawr. Perhaps the e&planation for the number of letters which travel from Harvard to Wellesley every day is explained by the fact that the Wellesley girl is near at hand. Or perhaps she is, as has been suggested above, the happy combination of .the qualities of students at the three other leading feminine col- lege’ of the North.’ ~At any rate, she rates above her rivals, vitations to Harvard parties—Harvard Crimson, ‘typifies old Spain. .adaisical slozch, »Stripes Forever” portrays the embittered adventuress, sinister_in long green gloves; her ges- e ENTERS ~~~ Continued frum Page One” ceived’ in old Germanic paintings, moves from set pose Yo set pose by the: the gold crown cir- powerful sweeps of ‘her arms, heavy, red robe, cling her head, and the strong, delib- } erate movements of her form, imbue her figure with the stolid potency of early Teutonic Christiatiity.
