President Park Explains
Scope of Chapel Services

 

President Park was_ the speaker at
a general chapel held ‘in Goodhart
Auditorium Thursday morning, Oc-
tober 9, She spoke of the nature of
the chapel services in this coming year
and in past years, urging students to
make attendance .at chapel a_ habit.
Chapel consisted, originally, of a fif-
teen-minute devotional Quaker meet-
ing held-on-the ‘second floor of Taylor
Hall. It was aiid has always been, in
-accordance with Quaker principles, an
entirely voluntary service.

In President- Thomas’ time the
scope of the talks was enlarged; where
there had been only impromptu pray-
ers, everything came to ‘be “disciissed
from politics and education to “tin
cans on campus.” -

Music was introduced into the serv-
ice one fervid Election Day morning
-in President Park’s time by the ‘spon-
taneous singing of “My Country, ’Tis

yof Thee.” Ever since that dramatic
morning hymns have been sung and,
now, occasionally, Mr. Willoughby
arranges an entirely musical service.

At other times we have the oppor-

tunity of hearing various members of

Varsity Defeated in

Season’s First Game

 

Lack of Co-ordination in Forward
Line Offset by Slow Game
of Yellows.

 

DEFENSIVE WORK’ GOOD

 

Before a very small gathering of on-
lookers, the Varsity went forth
against the Philadelphia Cricket Club
Yellows for its first game and returned
with a 4-1 defeat. The fact-that we
did not receive a bad beating was due
more to the slow play of the Yellows
than to Varsity’s good playing.

Our forward: line showed a great
lack of unity which may be partly ex-
cused by lack of practice.

On numerous occasions one person
or another would carry the ball down
to the striking circle from which posi-
tion she was utterly incapable of either
carrying it in alone or passing it along.
Unfortunately Allen did not.show up
as well as had been expected, but she
still leoked like the best of the forward
line material. 5

During the first half the Yellows
kept the ball down in the Bryn Mawr
defensive zone a large part of the time)
As a-result the score at half time was
3-0 in their favor. In this period the
brunt of the work was borne mostly
by the backs. Collins, filling in at full,
made several good ‘plays which helped
keep the ball away from the’ goal.

character, the programs ranging from
Elizabethan Music to the present day.

da, besides their native country, and
this season are booked to give fifty
concerts in China, Japan, the East In-
dies, Ceylon, Burma, India and Egypt.
Their programs are made up.of Mo-
téts,.. Madrigals, Ballets;
from the Golden Age of Elizabethan
poetry and music and Folk-§ongs ar-
ranged by such consummate adapters
as Vaughan Williams. The Singers,
seated around a table, follow the tradi-
tional custom of Elizabethan times,
when part-singing was a genial after-
dinner rite. Mr. Olin Downes. in
the New York Times said:.“A Concert
by the English Singers is for a listener
a unique and unforgettable experience,
a contact with beauty that is rare and
haunting in interpretation, that in
their particular kind are unparalleled
on the American concert stage.” This

College and this unique ensemble com-

Simfonietta was founded in 1925 by
Fabien Sevitzky who is its conductor.
Mr, Sevitzky has brought his organiza-

M. Paul Hazard Begins
French Poetry Series

 

Flexner Lecturer Siow. How
Classicism Hampered Rise
of French Poetry.

 

HUGO RECREATES VERSE

 

(Specially contributed. by -L,
and E. Frederick, holders of the Hazard
Scholarships.)

The third of the Mary Flexner Foun-
dation lecturers, M. Paul Hazard, began
his-series of lectures om “La Poesie Fran-
caise de 1815-1914” Tuesday, October 7,
at 8:30 P. M. in the gymnasium.

M. Hazard opened his lecture by re-
calling, that although many efforts had
been made to revive poetry in France
during the second half of the eighteenth
century, by 1815 poetry was no longer
alive. However, in the eighteenth cen-
tury..there had. been. Rousseau, who, al-
though he wrote in prose, created a
rhythm closely allied to that of true
poetry. He invested with this new

and God. Chateaubriand, also, attempted
to recreate poetry. M. Hazard charac-
terized the Memoires d’Outre Tombe as
“une vaste symphonie avec des orchestra-
tions infinies.” These attempts, however

ard “pointed out, poetry is the result of
continued effort, without which true
poetry could not establish itself at this
time. M. Hazard advanced as reasons
for the sterility of French poetry (1) the
naturally analytical Frénch mind of
which Voltaire is the epitome, (2) the
psychological attitude which considered
poetry a literary form ‘ratherthan a per-
sonal expression, (3) the rigid adher-
ence to the French classical rules which,
under the influence of a _ too perfect
model, destroyed all feeling for poetry
as an art, (4) the historical environment
which. demanded  stultified occasional
poetry.

The secorid ‘part of M. Hazard’s. lec-

poetry toward 1820 with the appearance
of .Lamartine. who. also struggled with
the pseudo-classical rules prevalent dur-
ing’ his youth. With the awakening of
genuine emotion in the-soul of Lamar-
tine, there was a subsequent awakening
of French poetry. In the expression of
his personal feelings he embodied the as-
pirations of the French public of his time.
This is.evidenced by the amazing popu-

larity of. his Meditations Poetiques”
(1820).
To these new lyric utterances was

added a new literary technique, with: the
appearance in 1822 of the first works of
Victor seine Les _ et sinwsnas Di-
verses.
he takes the Poets verse, nthe it,
breaks it up, separates it from mere me-
chanical and moulds it with re-
markable dexterity ; in short, he recreates
French verse. In spite of the’ remnants
of the classical vocabulary ‘still to be
found in Hugo's early work, a powerful
lyricism pervades -the whole. With the
fuller development of Hugo's — talent,
1828-1829, French poetry has not only
been resuscitated but has already. become

vigorous.

Lantern Nig ht

"The ‘sustained mood of Lantern Night; is one of the unique achieve-
ments of the college year. Its value lies, not only in its artistic merit,
but in the expression of the ideals, aesthetic and academic, ofthe college.
To go from the Cloisters to Pembroke Arch should be not a disrupting of
this mood, but its culmination; and up to.a certain point this is true. It
is when Pallas and Sophias give way to sentimental songs and lyrics that
the peculiar force of Lantern Night degenerates into mere crowd excite-
Mensa:

The singing boas its place, particularly for the upperclassmen who are
onlookers, not participants, in the ceremony. But it should not destroy
the value of the experience. If the program were narrowed down to
the Lantern Night Hymns, Class Songs, and Thou Gracious Inspiration,
the continuity of feeling would be unbroken.

Ink A gain

Last year we felt ourselves att upon to broach the-delicate matter
of Ink in Taylor Hall; and we did so, although not without pain. This
year again we comment upon said ink, but this time it is with a new
feeling. We are not so bold as to think that it is our humble words
which have produced so radical a change, but nevertheless we rejoice at
the change itself. Upon our return to college, we thought the ink con-
siderably improved by its absence; yet when we came upon a Filling
Station, quite by accident, we saw that it was even a more perfect solu-
tion to the problem of the ink-well; for whois there who does not wield
a fountain-pen?~-But in addition to its practical values, the sentimental
significance of the Filling-Station cannot’ be overestirfiated. We wish to

Leslie Banks’ Raymond Dabney is_fpol-

The part obviously is fot designed to

who expects ariother “Infinite Shoeblack”

English actress who. is making: her first

She is beautiful and intensely seductive

Angel Pavement, J. B. Priestley, Har-
‘per and Bros., 1930.

The dedication to Angel Pavement in-
cludes these words: “because, he will
‘know. what.I.am_getting at in this Lon-
don novel.” Mr. Priestley might have
made this dedication to any reader, for
one cannot fail to grasp his meaning—so
clear, so tender, and yet so terrifying is
his picture of middle class ssotmat so
incurably romantic at ‘heart.”- Their

 

jlives, outwardly dull and. dreary, hope-

less and uninteresting, he depicts in all
their inner joys and sorrows,. ambitions
with. a firm, sure, under-
standing hand.

Mr. Priestley understands his. London,
and pities it; he does not love it;—and
here perhapsis-where Angel Pavement
differs most in spirit from The Good
Companions. Not only has he renounced
his cheery optimism for’ a deep pessi-
mism, but~also-he does not-belong to. the
people of whom he is writing. He sur-
veys them, a sympathetic onlooker, but
he is not one with them. Their little
dramas are not allowed to end happily;
their constant distress is almost too arbi-
trary. Members, however humble, of the

Dear Friends and Playmates,

I have decided that life—ah—is most
depressing. As a matter of fact, I
am seriously contemplating suicide.
By the way, which do you think would
bbe more of a gesture: to starve on top
of a telegraph pole, or to hurl myself
beneath the wheels of a high-powered

er Skate? There is something so
| dignified about a telegraph pole, don’t
‘you think? And then, the. Indians
used to climb things. . Dear old In-
dians! _ How splendid they were. It
makes me quite sad to think about it
all. But I ami sure that you are just .
panting to know how I, your romping
‘buddy, came to this sorry pass. Well—

“The other night. I was curled up in
my wee nest and snoring peacefully, |

when I awoke with a start. Having ~
rebuked my alarm clock, I again closed
the woozy peepers, but not for long.
After five minutes I recognized the
trusty bell in Taylor ‘Hall, and then
to my horror realized that the other
disturbing factor was not a fog horn,
but a fire siren, the fire siren in fact. I
screwed my nose up in the way that
you all know, and was rewarded by a
whiff of smoke. Hope leapt so high in
my breast that the aforementioned rest
was shaken to its foundations. \Ber-
haps good old Pem was really burning -
at last. I bounced out of bed and
opened the door. ' But alas, no hissing
flames greeted me, and I could step

pointment and sorrow. . Why couldn’t
the fire have picked something really
inflammable? Why, I knew they'd
have it out in a minute. I must say,
though, I. did think tenderly of the
News Office. What if those chronicles
of my doings: should be lost to the
world? Once again the inner life of
a genius would remain a mystery. And
there was always the possibility that
in default of the true facts. the public
would rake up—I mean invent—some
scandal. Then I had a brilliant idea:
I would go rescue my history, and in-
cidentally see the firemen. I climbed
onto a vine, and, breathing. a prayer,
was about to glide down when ruthless
hands seized me by the scruff of the
neck, and a stern voice said:

“Qh, “no, young lady, you don’t go
distracting those fine young men.”
Just to show you how foiled I felt, I
wasn’t even ‘flattered by the remark.

So now you have the whole sad tale.
Yes, think of me, Sister Centipede, a
thwarted creature. I haven't yet de-
cided whether or not I'll get over it.

41 guess they’d-feel pretty mean if- they

,heard I’d kicked the bucket and so |
young, too!- Well, I just wanted: to
let you know what to expect. Don’t
miss me too much when I.am gone—if
I-go. And don’t forget; carry on with-
out me. Farewell—maybe.
Not so rompingly yours,

Second Varsity Game
Monday afternoon the Second Vars-
ity upheld its unbeaten record by gain-

“tng a 2-0 victory over Rosemont Vars-

ity. Although the game was rather
slow, there was a noticeable amount
of team work.

The forward line was better in its
passing than Varsity was last Satur-
day. During the first half, the ball
rarely got far inside» Rosemont’s de-
fensive circle. For some reason the
forwards seemed incapable of shooting,
With an opening before them,~ they
would gently tap the ball towards the
goalie’s feet and generally it was inter-
cepted by the fullbacks.

In the second half, with Smith at
center forward, the .line got a little
faster and two goals were the result.

Throughout the game the passing
from-wing to inner and back-was good,
especially that of Bronson and Long-
acre. Although Longacre did ‘several
pretty dodges, she then lost control of
the ball. If she had passed rather than
dodged, the result probably would have
been better. Because of the good play-
ing of the fullbacks, Jones had prac-
tically no work.’ Bishop played a
steady, reliable gag, and Baer was
constantly feeding the forward. line
with-hard; stire passes.

The chief trouble seemed to be weak
shooting and rather constant playing
offside. These difficulties will not be
hard to overcome, and next week will
.- undoubtedly see a better game.

On the whole Captain Collins ‘and
her team are to be: congratulated and
a hopeful season for them can be

ward the end that she ceased to feed
her left wing. Rothermel, playing
against her former clubmates, u8ed the
‘knowledge of stick work which she had
gained from them to great advantage.
It may be said that she and Ullom
‘were about the only/members. of the
Varsity that showed any stick. work.
Although Longa¢re seemed rather
weak, she stayed in her position beau-
tifully, never interfering with the cen-
tre forward. /If she can keep on her
feet Miss Grant may be able to develop
one good/inner.

In thé second half Varsity, - rein-
forced by five Juniors fresh from the
Kren¢h oral, succeeded in playing even
with the Cricket Club, each side get-
tig one goal. The ball was more
often down: in the Philadelphia de-
/ fensive zone. When it came down to-
wards the Bryn Mawr goal, it was.in-
variably returned by McCully, who
was the obvious star of the game,
being everywhere at the same minute

The forward line was perhaps—a little

better but it still has a long way to go.
Sanborn, at left wing, and Remington,
at centre, both played a fair game,-and
several times got in some nice shots.
Moore, ‘although pretty slow, was gen-
erally in her position, thus’ making
passing a great deal easier. Right in-
ner was about the weakest position: on
the team. — Both Totten and Crane,
when playing it, had a tendency. to
drop. back -and take the halfback’s
balls and then could not get up into
position again to receive passes. Tot-
ten seemed to play rather better at
wing ‘but on the whole-cher game was

ho

messy. -

was ‘Cheston, centre forward, who
scored three of her side’s goals. The

greatest difference in the teams was

able to intercept: most all the passes.

As a whole the game: was free from
fouls. While the work of the backs
was encouraging, ‘the forward line’s in-
ability to capitalize its opportunities
was rather a disappointment. . Perhaps,
however, they will get some drill in
stickwork and passing from now on,
which will unify them dnd produce a
better result in later games.

It is to be hoped that in the future
spectators will come to the games. The
turnout on Saturday was pitiful. There
was a mere handful of people and very
few of them had the.ability to cheer. It
is small wonder that the hockey teams
of late have: had ‘so little success, With
practically no backing.

in his side, he struggles against the ever-
present-fear--oflosing his—job...He_ finds
the new generation growing up about
him, including his own children, a trifle
alien and incomprehensible, but enjoys
his home, and adores his music. Mr.
Smeeth liked to feel himself an essential
part of “his firm,” for there alone he
belonged, and could lose himself in his
beloved numbers.

To Miss Matfield, the typist, every-
thing is “Foul, my dear, simply foul.”
A capable, moderately well educated sec-
retary, she lives in..Burpenfield, a-~wom-
en’s hotel, and comes each morning to
the office by Tube. Her cool and lofty
manner she assumes to hide from her-
self as well as from the outside world
that it was.“the endless cheating of ‘life
itself that frightened her and stifled her.”
Turgis, the usual sallow, pasty-faced em-
ployee, goes to the movies solely in an-
ticipation of sitting near a lovely girl,
nerves himself to grasp a feminine hand,

|and wakes from his ectatic delight to

find her thirty“and crosseyed.-_ His - is
the commonplace tragedy of the unlov-
able man.

All this dull,and quiet life-is suddenly
galvanized by the appearance of Mr.
Golspié, big man of business, who re-
stores the tottering firm to equilibrium,
‘and for a short interval brings color, ex-
citement, and new promise to the lives
of the staff, only to disappear leaving
their utter ruin in his wake.

Perhaps the elements of real tragedy
are here, yet one cannot feel it entirely ;
things are so inexpressably dreary that
one feels -there is nothing vital énough
to probe tragic depths. . The style, hu-
mourously gentle though it is, adds to
thesense.of-depression..--The..-reader
enters into their life no more than does
the author, and with him shares the tol-
‘erant view of the bystander. Mr. Priest-
ley is almost too deft of touch; so
pathetically narrow of vision are people
and so ‘helplessly stupid, we feel: sorry
for them, but we ‘are also intensely irri-
tated. “There they were, smiling and

Social Economy Discussion

In a meeting of some of the social
economy classes Monday morning Mr.
‘Rennie Smith continued his discussion
of the Labor Party and the British
economic situation. In answer to a
request from Dr. Fairchild, Mr. Smith
described the supporters of the British
Labor Party. It is, he said, distinctly
not a class party. Most of the sufy-
porters are, of course, laborers, . but
some are drawn from each class in the
country, with the result that the labor
movement in Great Britain is unlike
the nmiore Marxian movement on the
Continent.

‘Smith’s..own--constituency he is sup-
ported by teachers and ministers, as
well as workers, and other members of
the communit including a growing
class of employers. One of the fore-.
most contributions the party has. made
to British government is its representa-
tion of every phase of the economic life
of the country. Not an‘ industrial
question can be raised in the-House of
Commons today concerning which there
is not a member on the floor who is an
hexpert. Thére are some differences of

resigned his leadership of the party
during the war, when the feeling was
so bitter. between the larger and more
conservative group and the Independ-
ents, to whom he then belonged. Their
ideas of co-operation with other na-
tions have now spread through the
whole party and become a paft ofall
British thinking. Now there are other
conflicts between the left wing and the
majority of the party: It is normal,
however, for the back-benchers, con-
sidering the future, to conflict with the
‘ministry, who must deal with the pres-
ent situation. ‘There are no.real signs

A few important facts stand out from
the whirl; the first is that there are more
freshmen than ever this’ year. Colleges
in the Middle West and on the Pacific
Coast note:that the business* depression
did not have its expected effect on the
enrollment, as the class’ of 1934 will
probably “be larger than any previous
one. :

The attitude toward freshman hazing
seéms to be changing gradually. At the
University of West Virginia the Student
Council has officially - abolished hazing,
and has provided instead for a Fresh-
man Court to work with the Traditions
Committee in enforcing reshnay os
toms. Which means that freshmah fules
are under the charge of a definite group,
and not any upperclassman (sg@phomores
being traditionally the most-ardent) cares
to take a hand. Bucknell has gone still
farther, and is attacking not .only haz-

ing plans for the 1930 Roll Call.
executive work in connection with the
membership enrollment will again be
in charge of Charles W. Crist, who
will use the chapter building at 2100
