B.M. Basketball Team ~ Loses Game to Penn Penn, February 3. The Owls first basketball game of the season ended in a 38-33 victery for the fast and tricky Penn téam. At the end of the first quarter Bryn Mawr led by one point; the second quarter, however, decided the game with Penn’s _ surging ahead by ten points. When Agnes Nelms came in for the second half, Bryn Mawr’s prospects brightened, “and the. Owls outscored the maroon team 17-122. In spite of their come- back, the yellow team was still five points behind when the whistle blew. Varying their’ tactics ‘a great deal, Penn’s team played a_par- ticularly fast game, distinguished by tricky passes and good lay-up shots. The Owls were slow in moving up to the ball, sticking to one place while the Maroon guards pet age ob it was a remark-|- ably even fmatch when there was not too much fouling. The yellow guards, especially the captain Yvonne Townsend, played a magnificent game, while Nancy Niles was the top-scoring forward with six field goals and one free throw to her credit. Joan Hitchcock, Freshman forward who played all four quarters, came in second with eight points. ~The downfall of the Junior Var- sity also came in the second quar- ter, and they lost 34-31 to Penn’s second team. Star of the green team was Posy Johnson who piled up sixteen points. Line-ups First team Penn: Bryn Mawr: Forwards Forwards Raughley Coleman, B.

To- night in-a Vocational Conference on teaching, Dr. Burton Fowler, Headmaster of the Germantown Friends School, emphasized the importance of the right ‘people be- coming teachers in elementary schools. liberal arts colleges have the back- ground and personality of human beings, and are therefore ipoten- tially the best teachers. He as- serted that teaching is an “inspir- ing, challenging, and exciting ad - venture.” Miss Hart of the Girls’ High School of Philadelphia endorsed everything Dr. Fowler said as ap- plicable to secondary schools. She added that broad interests are es- pecially important because educa- tion “is the whole life of the child, and the whole life of the world.” Inflexible teachers, are bad, and a broad training, such as found ih a liberal arts college and in a teach- ‘ing interneship, is vital.

It will be held af- ter spring vacation’in order to give everyone who is interested an op- portunity to bring her books from The exhibit will consist of children’s classics, illustrated books and old favorites.of every kind. In order to-provide a guide for the selection of contributions, the com- mittee has suggested some authors and illustrators whose works would be mgst welcome. If you have ‘any books of Rackham, Howard Pyle, Kate Greenaway, Cruikshank, Maxfield Parrish, Dulac or Boutet de Monvel, it is hoped that you will lend them to the college for the exhibit. These suggestions are not intended to exclude any old favorites but are provided for the convenience of those who are not sure where to begin. Look around your book shelves when you Wre home and see if you can’t find something that you would like to see lying in state in the Rare Book Room. It is earnestly hoped that there will be a great many con- tributions and that many students will be interested in helping to ar- range the exhibit. If you have any suggestions, contributions or ques- tions, please see Susan Oulahan, Denbigh. Current Events Continued from Page 2 use. The blitz, however, has done a tremendous clearance job. In all, four and a half million homes have been damaged, and another half million razed beyond - repair. The building trade has, therefore, been expanded, ‘but it can only in- crease the housing by 300,000 by the second year after the war. The engineering trade has been util- ized in a temporary building pro- gram, to construct a quarter of a million houses in the two years following the war. The problem still is unsolved, since these “tin can” houses last only ten years, and are constructible by only two firms who possess equipment for them, which need conversion. The houses are also very small and ex- pensive.

This series was given last year with great success, with talks by varied members of each department. The general purpose of the se- ries is to assist students in choos- ing their major and to explain what kinds of work can be done in the various fields after graduation. It is hoped that those underclass- men who have not. yet chosen their majors will attend, as well.as Jun- iors and Seniors interested in ca- reers. Of the six conferences, two will concern the sciences, one the social sciences, one the classics, one the modern languages, and one the humanities. They will take place in the Common ‘Room at 4:30 in February and early March. The first, on February - 13, will deal with Psychology, Mathematics and Physics. Pe reg ae Maree eee.
