CORNELIUS WINS DISTINCTIVE AWARD Newly Established 3 ellowship < Given to Julia Ward. i OTHER -AWARDS MADE «Chief among the Graduate awards -an- nounced last Friday in Chapel by Miss Park is the Helen and Cecile Robel Fel- lowship, founded in 1920 and aitoady. awarded six times, which this year goes to Roberta Douglas Cornelius of Lynch- burg, Virginia. Miss Cornelius graduated from the Randolph-Macon College and was awarded her M., A. at the University of Chicago. From 1911-26 she was an instructor and -Adjunct and. Associate Professor in English at Randolph-Macon. ,This year she is a Fellow in English at Bryn Mawr. Préfessor Carleton Brown says that “Miss Cornelius’ special faculty lies in her ability to apply intelligence to the laborious process of research. She stud- ies but she also thinks, and when she is thinking she also perceives. As a result she seldom has taken a problem in hand without making some contribution towards its solution.” The Helene and Cecile Robel Fellow- ‘ship is very elastic. Of the value of $1500, it may. be held in any center of educatiori or as a traveling fellowship. It is not necessary that it aid study for a degree but may be used in any way the holder may choose w ith the approval of the faculty. Mrs. Workman Leaves New Fellow- ship. This year the Pecnky awards a new fellowship made possible by the thought- ful generosity of Fanny Bullock Work- man and her husband, Dr. W. Hunter Workman. The Fanny Bullock Work- man Scholarship Fund of the value of $30,000 provided for in her will has been placed at the immediate disposal of Bryn Mawr College by Dr. W. Hunter Work- man. In accordance with the terms of tne bequest and with the approval of Dr. Workman, the income of the fund, $1500 will be devoted to:a graduate fellowship awarded annually by the faculty of Bryn Mawr College and to be held during a year of study or research abroad.

FROM MEMORIAL FUND Dr. Roger Hewes WellS_ Associate Professor of Politics at Bryn Mawr, has been awarded a Fellowship by the John Simon Guggenheim Memorial Founda- tion. Dr. Wells is one of. fifty-three scholars from all parts of the country to receive such an award, out of eleven hundred who were considered. This. foun- dation was established by former Senator son who died. in 1922. The Fellowships go to students who have demonstrated unusual capacity for productive scholar- ship, for use in research on some definite subject. Municipal Government in the German Commonwealth will be the topic to which Dr. Wells intends to devote himself, “J discovered in giving my seminary on municipal government,” said Dr. Wells to a representative of the Co.tece News, “that there is no material in English, available for students, covering the post- war period in Germany. While much at- tention is paid to the Federal Govern- ment, the German cities are noticed only when they float a new bond issue. The republican form by which Germany is now governed has caused a modification more or less of the municipal govern- ment.” Dr. Wells will make Berlin his head- quarters because of jts excellent library facilities, an@ because he—can-then,—also, confer with Professor Walther Nordon, a German authority on the subject. Field trips will also be necessary because, as in, this country, there is considerable variety among the different cities. Dr. Wells plans to spend all of the year 1927-28 abroad.

VARSITY GUARDS SHINE Varsity outpointed Temple, 38-34, in the basketball game Saturday morning. Although close the game was not nearly so thrilling as the Baltimore and Swarth- more games of the past two weeks: the playing was not as fast nor the spirit of rivalry as keen. In the first half Temple’s passing and teamwork were obviously better than ours, but Huddleston’s and Freeman’s really marvelous guarding kept us in the lead. Their forwards had the ball far more often than we did but they could not make use of their opportunities. All the players on both sides stuck to their opponents admirably, but our guards were unquestionably the oustanding players. The end of the half came and we led 15-8. = The second half consisted of a steady succession of goals. First one side would pop the ball in and then the other. And so they jockeyed to the finish. Temple’s basket ability improved: they crept up to within one point of us. Lojgfes snatched us out Of danger with two long, clean goals. Then a beautiful ‘looping shot by Temple. Another. And so it went; but always we kept slightly in the lead. When the whistle blew the count was 38-34 in our favor.

TWO SUMMAS IN F. DE LAGUNA WINS EUROPEAN FELLOWSHIP, | ie ‘TOPPING ALL RECORDS WITH 304 POINTS First to Come dl Under Single Major Rule, '27 HasARec- ord in Honor Points. 1927 Smashing all previous scholastic rec- ords by a margin of over twenty honor points, Frederica Annis Lopez de Leo de Laguna was awarded the fortieth Euros pean Fellowship of Bryn Mawr College by President Park on behalf of the Fac- ulty in Chapel last Friday ‘morning. The European Fellowship, which pro- vides for a year of study abroad in any country and in any university, according to the holder's. discretion, is awarded each year to a member of the Senior Class who “by her college record, by the qual- ity of her work, her promise of con- structive ability, intellectual interest and steadiness of purpose shows the fairest promise as well as the finest perform- ance.” It was founded in 1889 when the first class graduated and has been awarded ever since. Former Record 279 Honor Points. Before-the~-honor’ point system went into effect, the highest numerica] record was held by Cora Hardy Jarrett in 1899 with an average of 93.45. Translated — into honor ppints this would be 258—as Miss Park pointed out—the same record held by the third student of the class of 1927. Since 1899 the highest record is held by Dorothy Burr, 1923, with 279 honor points. This record was almost equalled in’ 1926 by Delia Smith, with 278 honor points, Frederica de Laguna, however, has .304 honor points on 105 hours and 322 honor ~ points if her extra hours of college credit are reckoned. Throughout her college career she has obtained no grade below Credit, and she has only. seventeen hours of Credit in all with the rest High Credits. Miss Park said that this numer- ical display was completely unimportant in comparison with the mental qualities which lay behind it, “brilliance of mind, ease and accuracy of attack on her work, and to back it all and turn it from glitter to gold, steadiness and unflagging inter- est.” Since Miss de Laguna was prepared at the Phebe Anna Thorne School and since both her mother and her father are pro- fessors.in Philosophy at Bryn Mawr, Miss de Laguna with her scholastic achievement has indeed shown herself “a daughter of the regiment.” Faculty Praises Pillsbury.

Oy Why are they always fighting in China? says one. What is this cry against foreigners, and what do they want, anyway? says another. Yes, these are complicated ques- tions that perhaps n6 outsider can} understand. ‘Diplomats of the 3Western : nations. have deceived themselves in believing that they know the “Chinese situation.” They think a five-cent rice cake will stop the-ctying baby, but the baby has grown up. If it took a five-cent rice cake to stop her crying when she was a baby, it will take a ten- pound pudding to stop her yelling now ! ~ Britain has” repeatedly shown “willingness” to negotiate a new treaty with China. She has even offered a few minor concessions to the Chinese. Why‘don’t they ac- cept? Why? A story has once been told by a Chinese Minister : A Sophomore and a Freshman had a fight—one of those collegiate fights. The Freshman was beaten, of course. As booty, the Sopho- more took away from him a gold watch, two pencils, a fountain pen, a bunch of keys, and several other things. The poor Freshman ap- pealed to his class for justice. But what could the class do to the all- powerful Sophomores? So the quarrel ended ; and with it went the gold watch, the pencils, the foun- tain pen and the keys. Two years passed. The Fresh- man was a Junior now, and the Sophomore _a Senior. Said the Junior to the Senior, “Give me back the things you took away from me two years ago. We are all upper- classmen now. There’s no reason why you should be superior to me.” Reluctantly the Senior came with some of the long-cherished booty. He handed them back, saying, “Here are your. things, the keys and the pencils.” “But I want all my things !” cried the Junior. “Now be reasonable,” answered the Senior in a pacifying way; “‘We must meet each other fifty-fifty. I cannot give you the watch and the foun- tain pen. If I do, how shall I know when to go to classes, and with what shall I take my lecture notes? You see they are essential to my welfare in college. I’m so used to them; I cannot part with them. . Be reasonable.” The Powers have enjoyed their rights in China too well to give -- them up. And they say “China, be reasonable !” 28 Ca THE TRUTH ABOUT constitution ; & & THE COLLEGE NEWS © maideh, be it ever so daintly, ever dares to put one foot upon the grass. : ae se -hrazen Senior who attertpted to tread upon. the growing shoots was accosted by a chorus of shrill whistles, and lo, even: she retired to the dirty side- walk where long and curly angle- worms, made too ambitious by the first spring rains, lay ‘stranded upon the cold gray concrete. With all forbidden to walk upon the ‘greens it seemed as though the famous light brigade had_ entered the grounds or great hordes of police- men were striding their beats. All this clatter for the protection of the grass!

This ~atti- tude has been much talked of in re- cent years,.and it seems to us that the organized summer invasion of Europe might .well be brought to task and made to, employ its great influence upon public opinion in the Surely this is a very necessary object, which must, in some way, be achieved before the people, now of college age, grow into those prejudices which are so apt to color the outlook of older people. In youth there is a sort of inter- national league, with an unwritten all youth has a com; mon aim, usually idealistic, usually broad and generous; all youth has much the same interest in life, and all youth is, whether justifiably or not, prone to individual, family, community and national pride. If America could be made to appreci- ate this fact, to visualize and, con- ceive of the value of the work of other nations, to drop its protective coloration of superiority, and to join with other peoples in a mutu- al understanding of interest, in’ a sympathetic comprehension of the struggles of all humanity, the inter- national peace organizations would need have no fear as to their future success. The difficulties which they are, at present, being made to face, are largely due to national minds and bodies left terribly sensitive by the late war; when the succeeding generation, comprised of people too young to realize its personal, jeal- ous aspects, old enough to know its tragedy and sorrow, comes in to man..and womanhood, there must be some great understanding of in- ternational obligation. At present there seems to be no evidence of this in America. Last summer the defensive dislike of Americans was felt to be stronger, abroad, than ever before; it is now to be hoped that these tours, and summer courses which many of us have planned to join, may have the sort of amicable effect of which they -are so perfectly capable.

All we can say is this: Whenever you sonnet the moon, You can rhyme it with coon, or platoon, Pantdloon, or monsoon, Or even spitoon, om But for God’s sake don’t rhyme it with any of the names of the months. ‘ee We should like to go to Ghosts. Some friends of ours went recently, and they tell us that the people sitting behind them were very much disturbed over it. At the end of the second act, one turned to the other and complained, “Whén do the ghosts come in ?—there haven’t been any yet.” We hope that Ibsen haunted them that night, after the way he dis- appointed them at his play. And speaking of ghosts, one of Hey- wood Broun’s contributors has been hav- ing a bad time of it. Rudolph Valentino’s ghosts came back ‘one night and insisted ‘fon using the poor man’s typewriter to write stories for the Graphic. The man didn’t like it at all, but he will get no sympathy from us. We can _ imagine nothing nicer than a spirited young ghost using or typewriter. They are welcome to it any time—we hereby ex- tend a permanent invitation, hoping that one of them will leave something really good for us to use. (Cissy Centipede uses it all the time, and she is much cleverer about it than Archie the Cock- ‘roach, who. can’t make capitals. Cissy has a system; she stands on the shift lock, and then hops to the letter and then releases the shift. Of course it takes time.) But to go bat to the ghosts, we should love to have a friendly ghost around the place, like the one in Frank |. € | Stockton’s story.

The’ skit, which was given at the party,. showed in part what life at Long Branch is like. The children, an extremely active- group, somewhat large for their ages, delighted the audience with their squab- bles’ and: general hilarity. But the: high point of the performance was when the “Long Branch Local,” impersonated by ' E. Stewart, ’28, steamed laboriously down its tracks; complete even to ‘the headlight. The “teacher” roused the chitdben from their-naps, took-them to the beach’ whare ‘they plunged boisterously around a bucket named “ocean,” and then took them home again in time for “assembly.” This meeting ,was spent in song; enthusiastic ‘renderings of “The Smoke Goes Up the Chimley,” “Johnny Schmocker,” and John Brown’s Baby,” were greeted with wholehearted approval. After the skit the scene changed to represent . the “pier” (the . haven of “Teacher” after her charges are in bed). There a roulette wheel, food, a fortune- teller and a superb orchestra provided ample entertainment. It is hoped that the college will support Bates in its drive so that this summer at Long Branch will be as successful as all previous ones. IN OTHER COLLEGES .

May I begin ‘my review of the March issue of the Lantern by commenting’ on individual pieces? The translations of Catullus, no doubt admirable class ex- ercises, can belong in the. Lantern only ‘traditionally. For instance, “Not a rap for you, Caesar, give I’ That line vio- lates the great principle of harmony. Any literary artist might say, “Get out or I'll throw you out,” or “Your hated cor- porosity remove, or else by me removed it~ shall be.” But mo artist would say, “Get out, ‘or else by me. out—shalt—be thrown.” Diction and construction must fit; it is the first law of English com- position . (advayeed). . From the Ai 2 stegs forward without orders to challenge attention, Miss Nel; son’s “An Experience.” I wish it be- gan “Julian is a great friend of mine— a dark, clever Jew—you know the type?” ‘—and then swing into “Did I ever tell you about the girl he picked up,” etc. The whole first page of “An Experience” is soft waste. But the rest is the class of the: issue. Miss. Trask has trained herself to “present an impression,” and can do so admirably. Her “Apres-Midi” is fault- less. - But her “Career” should be more than impressions, it should be a story, _and it is not. She selects her players carefully, and then says “Stillpand! No “more moving!” But life is Tag, Miss Trask, Charming is the “Ballad of Four Elders,” with its quality suggestive of Matthew Arnold’s “The Strayed Revel- ler”. more than anything that I know Chinese. (But then Arnold’s “culture was eminently Chinese culture; see Haver- lock Ellis’s “The Dance of Life”). Charming too are lines of Miss Keasby’s “The Banker”’—“the free and glistening gulls wheel round, white souls of dead forgotten fishermen who toil no more.” May it not be forgotten, moreover, that to achieve charm ‘in patterns is far harder than to achieve it by the methods of| imagism. Miss Fesler’s “Co-ed” is logical- ly and finely done, Miss Mitchell’s “Hunting Song” logically and robustly done;—as-both—are-fogical,-both—are-suc- cessful. “The Moon,” says Miss Haley in “The Ballad of the Pond-Shore,” “was deep.” __So_is,_I_fear,the—ballad;—I--am not certain that it did not drown my] comprehension. So far I have written for the authors. Nor should you others scorn me. Com- ment on what one writes is -what. one must have. Favorable or adverse, who cares? Each one of us knows what he (or she) tried to do, and in what, though not how, he (or she) failed, and nobody else does know. Most of us prefer praise to depreciation, but all of us prefer de- preciation to ignorance. . Now, however, I write for the readers of the News, on the Lantern as expres- sive of Bryn Mawr., Are you not, young ladies, a trifle technical, even a trifle pedantic?

The debate which is te take plage this evening between the, Delta-Sigma. society and the Literary and Debating Society is an enCouraging sign that the true mean- ing of co-education is coming to be realized more -and more at McGill. ‘The co-ed is a co-ed in the full sense of that word=that she is being co-educated, but she is not a $8tudent. Rather “is she mere~ ly a part of the make-up, of a university. Why are not the male students known as co-eds? Are they not being co-educated too? We fear that the word smacks too much of the old idea that the women are merely tolerated at the university—that they are a small insignificant part of its life.” : Model Faculty.

The one redeeming feature of this play ‘seems to lie in its so- called “human in- terest,” when (the, mere bourgeois of the audience is made to realize that he is witnessing the true life story of a real flesh and blood prince; when this same bourgeois, however, is set free-to return home to dust-covered history . books, from whose pages has been dragged forth the teagic tale of the son of Franz Joseph, supposedly to furnish an eve- ning’s entertainment, even, this bit of natural curiosity is shorn frdim the play, and it is left to stand, face to face with its unpromising future. With the combination of a good story and a once successful author, and with Mary Elis and~Basil Sidney in the cast, it seems almost astounding that this play could be so very bad. Except for its ~ staging and lighting effects, and its cos- tuming, there is very little complimentary which one can say about it. The action drags, the lines are stereotyped and un- interesting, and the entrances and exits) very badly managed. Miss Ellis achieved the climax of her part at her very first appearance upon the scene, and even then, when her life and safety were supposed to be in imminent danger, the blood of the bourgeois. audience did not run cold; -the whole play is written in the samé tone as a newspaper story—the facts are all there, and the material for real dramatic intensity is present in: teeming abundance; however, there must be some intangible power placed behind all this, some real feeling, in order that the Situation may be emotionally understood, and the play attain some success as a dramatic work. Two Leads Die Gracefully. The part Miss Ellis takes in The Crown Prince is that of a lovely, mis- ’ tress of a very idealistic young prince. ’ Like a Renaissance lady, her face is beautiful, and her character quite black; she is scheming, of course, for the throne and when her lover prince offers to give up his royal rights in order that he may live in peace with her, there is much to do, and it becomes quite obvious that all is not -well-at the palace. The prince, knowing enough of “human interest” to understand the difficulties of shatered idols, commits suicide, and the lady, in a sudden fit of moral hysteria, does like- wise; we cannot feel that the second use of the misdirected poison is for the sake of a true love, and we should dreadfully hate to feel that it were done through fear; hence, if we look upon her as a sort of martyr, we shall know, at least, that Miss Ellis’ latest part brings her to quite a ladylike end, and we must give to both her and Mr. Sidney the credit for making wonderfully graceful death falls. Seriously, however, the blame for this play must probably be placed upon the shoulders of its author; we might almost feel that it had been thrown together for-some mercenary end, would that not be to make too rash a supposition? One ‘| plausible, too, is that, in the process of translation, this play. : may have. lost*-a good deal of fire and zest; it is surpris- ing how much difference clever lines ean make in*the general impression left by a play, and.the present-day audience does demand a sophisticated “type of -amusement; we feel that some recogni- tion of scontemparary dramatic requisite is demanded by an audience, and’ surely Vajdi has shown none of this, Erna S.

Romantic_Comedians, By--Ellen -Glasgow. Doubleday Page & Co. y Ellen Glasgow has written an interest« ‘ ing and slightly dull character study of that’ type of silly. old man who is all too common nowadays. Having lived solemn- ly and ceremoniously with one wife for thirty odd years and hawing equally solemnly and ceremoniously buried ‘her, he is determined to begin to live his life at the tender age of sixty-five. The reader either ought to laugh at the comedy of the situation, or pity the foolishness of Gamaliel Honeywell, remnant of the Vic- torian era, and his second wife, the viya- cious Annabel. But he can do neither and is consequently a little bored. He is ‘ not permitted to,‘really live the lives of the characters with them; he only ob- serves them so that they become artificial and his ‘interest wanes. The author’s style is pervaded by logic. It makes the analysis of the characters’ thoughts and actions clear and compre- hensive, but it takes all brilliance from the descriptions which are jerky and lack the realistic imagery of genius. Of the minor characters, Edmonia, the ' Judge’s twin sister, is outstanding with her crude ‘candor. Now and then he gives the author ‘the opportunity to ex- press a whimsical thought which fur- nishes the all too neglected comedy note. It is not easy to forget, “So far as I can make out . . the child has a fancy for landscape gardening, or it may /be funeral design, which would be thore ‘ original.” Such a passage makes one regret that Miss Glasgow did not con- fine herself to relating the story for its own. sake,. unhampered_by--the-.maze_of |Omnivorous scholar. — has surrounded it: a rich apd aging widower ‘makes, a penniless ‘and attrac- of this achievement yet he is #hocked at his sister who married four husbands in a perfectly straightforward “manner. Of course his young wife falls in love and runs away, and in the end the reader is left wondering Whether he is going to marry the woman to whom he was en- ae thirty-six years ago (and who has waited all this time for him), or whether he hag learned his lesson. In either case one feels that. he has at: least regained ‘his sanity. ‘ ‘i ae , CONTENT PECKHAM. Rostovsteff Will Speak Professay A.
