VARSITY CRUSHES ¥ BUCCANEERS Chien Jas a Didanealetenont | After a Most Promising © Opener., NO Pere erTon The, basketball game Saturday morn- ing. March 2,.Wwas a total disappoint- ment. Varsity walked away with a 47-6 victory, but the game’ was sadly devoid of excitement and spectacular playwig. It does not seem . possible that the Buc- caneers . who played*such a_ consistent game against Baltimore :several weeks ~ ago could be the same team that took ee ~_able game, but. they. didnot. have-te-work- such a “licking” Saturday morning. sh Varsity shad no competition so it is hard to judge the merits of the players. “ is safe to .say sthat the team did not play as well as it did in the last varsity game. Rasch, who graduated from sec- ‘ond to first varsity, looked promising. She is quick, alert, and acctrate, and “plays well with Totten. Baer, in center, and Freeman’ and McCully, | guards, ' played the smoothest and most depend- very hard. Blane ard was wild. Her passes were hard, fast and_inaccurate. While it did not matter very much where the ball was thrown, on Saturday, | it. might make a very material difference in a; close game: As for the Buccaneers the least said the’ bétter.. Saturday must have been their off day for in spite of Miss Brady’s valiant efforts and frequent shifts in the lineup they not have a prayer. In most games when victory is assured the subs are run in at the beginning or during the last quarter. This seemed the logical thing to do Saturday. It not only. for the subs to show] & is an opportunity their worth and to make a blaze, but it also gives the player who just misses the first team an incentive to work harder. Rut perhaps the team needed’ the practice for the Swarthmore game. The lineup wast Varsity—Totten, 31, Rasch, 32,. 2212212212212; Blanchard, - ’31;.. Freeman, Cully, 38.

In Paris the Sorbonne offers’ 2 a refifar course in French Language and Litera-, ture, June -30-August 10; and an Academic Tour, August: 12-21, which will include Touraine, Mont St. Michel and Normandy. Among the courses - offered at the Sorbonne is one very interesting one given by Professor Baldensperger on the Contemporary Novel. The cost,’ from June 30 to August 21, is between $200 and $300, including living, tuition, excursions and trips. The.Alliance ‘Francaise, also in Paris, offers two series of courses in-the French Language and _ Litérature; from July 1- 30, and from August 1-31. The cost in- volved is ridiculously cheap; 140 francs a month ($5.60). The Institut de Bhonetinae 4 is repeating the courses it has offered for the last several yeats. They include intensive work in small discussion groups and are intended for-studentswho wish to perfect their pronunciation. The first series runs from July -15-August 3; and the second, from August 5-24. Cost: 200 francs. In the provinces tuition averages about $8.a-month,_living, $1.50 to $2-a-day,and excursions are very inexpensively ar- ranged by the authorities. Continued on Page Two S acee . SS Promising!

A large} crowd of very silent listeners was gathered in the Common Room to hear What Hoover would have to say in this first public utterance since the election. The swearing in of new Senators, .and the process of removal from the Chamber of the Senate to the west front of the Capitol was made vivid to the listeners by two sprightly radio) announcers and the chief clerk.of the Senate, famous as the man who first |announceéd _ that “Alabama gives twenty-four votes for Oscar W. Underwood.”,| We were told that Curtis: was. speaking to a lady, that it- was raining slightly, adding the color of variegated umbrellas to the landscape, at former. President Coolidge had his hand up to his chin, and) that the digni- taries were reluctant to| sit down on their damp chairs. We) were also in- debted to Mr. J. F. Wile, veteran, if ather absent-minded political announcer, who described Senator \Shipstead, of Missouri, as “That tall sycamore of the plains.” The voice of Chief Justice Taft, ad- ministering the’ oath of office (and it was an oath, not an affirmation) put the tones of the announcers to\ shame, for clarity .and resonance, and MHoover’s answering ‘I. do” was likewise loud and |. vigorous. His address, laying. emphasis on judicial reorganization and prohibition | and\ eloquent|’ enforcement, was short enough for anyone to. readin the paper. He expressed a wish that the United States might enter the World Court, but without abandoning her reservations; and declared his’ intention of abiding by the expsessed will of the people not to ham- per her freedom of action by joining the League of* Nations. In this connection Dr. Fertwick wishes to refer the students to Hoover’s statement concerning \ the League of: Nations in 1920. The new President indicated that the coming spe cial session of Congress will deal with Farm Relief and “limited Tariff reform.” He affirmed his intention to keep the Government ‘out of business, while re- serving the right, however, to regulate rigorously all Public Utilities and eeh- courage co-operative. associations., He indicated his. intention of reorganizing: the administrative departments of govern- ment, and furthering the practice .of economy. ‘The rest of the address was largely devoted to appreciation in not too terms of peace, . progress, prosperity and the American people.

What‘Is the Cross? ‘Cross Stands for Addition, Dr. Steer Said at. 1 ¢ Veeper. Drv Dotigias “Steere, Rhodes scholar to aad now professor’ of - psy- chology and philosophy at sHaverford College, gave a most interesting talk at the Vesper setvice of the Bryn. rae League on Sunday evening, March 8, the Music Room of Goodhart Hall. The Lenten period, Dr,, Steere syggest- ed to us, is one in which people are glad to’ have redramatized for them the life of one of the world’s: greatest personal- ities. It represents the weeks in the most intensive portion of Christ’s life and gives us the most poignant realization of His humanness. The great. symbol of the period, as it is the symbol of. all Christian- life, is thé Cross. What, exactly, should the Cross mean to -us? It should represent for us a permanent and tangible Something, simple enough for us to undérstantl in itself and strong enough for us to grasp in. the ; countless crisés wepich besiege our lives. Symbolically, Cross represents two - the / ideas. . Cross Stands for #ragedy _ In the first place, the Cross stands for Tragedy—the tragedy in life which ‘no One can escape.” The vision of the > Cross. has a curious effect upon us ; it quickens the sense of the value of life and enables us to. realize the triviality of minor an- ; noyances. There were no bickerings in the trenches; there was little fussing over trifles; with Death so near at hand these lesser things faded into the background. And so the vision of the Cross makes’a good many of our foibles seem insigni- It changes our at- |- ficant arid worthless. titude toward life in general: . When. Christ was faced with the knowledge that He. would be crucified, His thoughts were not those of despair. He felt at once the great desire to carry out all His endeavors, so that in the end there might exist within Him a_feeling of accomplishment. He gives out a new challenge to ‘the disciples and clarifies the vision of what -they must do, He emphasizes the necessity of going on in the remaining time with a new spirit of consecration. There the tragne element -in the vision of thé Cross.: Death does come; and it is impossible . to put off decisions and to procrastinate’ in straightening out the vexing entanglements which surround us. We cannot afford to wait for the “next step;” there is a certain intenseness in the symbol’ which aes us realize the need of “doing it now.’ “Cross Stands for ‘Addition But the Cross stands for more than this. It also stands for the vision of. is Christ as the Sign of Addition of our lives. To illustrate this Dr. Douglas re- told for us a charming legend of Brittany. + Zz Some. children were playing around” in a. large field and being tired they sat down at the foot’ of a Crucifix which stood near by. Presently, Christ came down from the Cross arkl} asked them what they thought of Him. Two of them of- fered an opinion on the subject, but the third, excused by his friends as “stupid,” could think of nothing to say. Fifty years later the three were again assembled in the same place. The oc- casion was the dedication’of a church, at which one of the three preached a great The “stupid” one had returned with the others, but he did not go into the church. He stayed out- side,.and when the sermon was over and everyone had gone his way, he went out into the field and sat down again at the foot of the old Crucifix. Again Christ came down and asked what he thought of Him now. And the man answered that he had always thought of Christ as a sign in his arithmetic book—the sign of addition, the power, which, combined with the strength or weakness of the Self, is the only thing which makes life at times seem bearable. Life cannot be lived alone. PZelves.

Dr. William. Roy... Smith spoke” in chapel on Monday morning, March 4, on the problems that-are before the Presi- dent. and foreign, and: discussed the domestic ones first. ; The rearrangement of the administra- tion departments-at Washington is very important. “Many- of them overlap and the taxpayers could be saved $5,000,000 a year, but some people would have to be thrown out and this would necessarily involve political opposition. The second problem is that’ of the foreign immigra- tion laws. The act of 1924 has been postponed.twice and though the House voted in favor of it on Sunday, the Sen- ate adjourned and _ will probably let it go until the “Special “session 1 in. April. The third problem is that of farm relief, and President Hoover is opposed to the Mc- Nary-Haugen bill. He will probably. try to institute a Federal farm board at Washington and a_stabflization corpora- In years when there are good ‘crops the farmers will be encouraged to hold the crops until the prices rise.

William Heard MUSSOLINI’S DRASTIC METHODS ~ - ENFORCE POLICIES ON PEOPLE heaps at Last - | That: Italy Did Not Need a Savior. SELF - RESPECT LOST Only a days before the Fascist viewpoint had been dealt out to us very convincingly. On Saturday night the case: for the anti-Fascists was presented even : few more convihcingly by Professor Gaetano Salvemini. He spoke on “Pres- ent=day~Conditions~in Ttaly,” The. sense of deep personal conviction, the unadorned and. unjuggled facts, the audience, were very persuasive without smacking at all of propaganda. Professor , Salvemini began by saying that toyguilge fairly one must know .that in 1912,-when the Fascists captured the governmént, the economic machinery of Italy was.not in a breakdown. Mussolini did not rescue an Italy expiring on the brink of bankruptcy. tween the end of the war.and the coming of Fascism the country underwent not adjustment; a crisis whose outstanding symptont was an epidemic of strikes both industrial and political. The post-war unrest was dying down gradually, and the Fascists had nothing to do with the nation’s recovery. During 1919-1920, the two most danger- ous years, Mussolini actually did his best He urged the people to start a new war, a war of the proletarian nations against He opposed the. Socialists not because they were too revo- lutionary but because they were notyevo- lutionary enough, The credit for there being no revolution is due to -the Italian people, who could haye ‘risen but~ re- frained, rather than to Mussolini as the Pro-Fascists declare. When the danger was_ over Mussolini no longer attacked the Socialists from the left, but assailed them from the right, calling then now dangerous revolutionaries rather than in- effectud® revolutionaries. As the post-war neurastheg@ died ‘down Fascism began to develop, and Italy entered a,new phase of polftical life. It was a period of authorized lawlessness, organized by the military and helped by the judges and police. The military au- thorities armed’ the.

Question Confrenting First ‘Ladies. And here, we think, is a tragic sit- uation. No insignificant personages have maintained that the bi-cameral system of this would-be democracy has, long been threadbare. Like the “First Ladies” it is confronted with the need of a few patches to cover up its inefficiencies. _ ¢No honorable and on-the-job government would allow its. first ladies the worry of having to run about wildly the day before inau- guration trying to figure out just what would appeal to the cotmntry in the line of clothes. It is, obvi- ously, the committee system which is at fault. There are so many of them now that Congress hates to create any more. But actually, what would put the bi-cameral system on the-map (or in the Who's Who?) again, would be appointment of a committee whose express - purpose would be to clothe the “first ladies” on inauguration day. Everybody— Congress, the country and_ the ladies, would then be satisfied. (“The College News” is not responsible for opinions expressed | in this column.)
