VARSITY DOWNS MERION 11-3
A. Nicholl and D. Clark ‘Star

Playing a faster and all-round better game
than ‘the week before, Varsity wiped Mer-
ion off the field Saturday by a score of
11-3. A. Nicoll, by her sure passing and
shooting, steadied the forward line and
shone as individual star for Bryn Mawr.

“Kicking” Clark, goal keeper, lived up
to her name by making several spectacular
stops.

The opposing team was weak with the
exception of A. Townsend, center forward,
who played the whole game for Merion
and made two of their goals. Miss Town-
send is All-Philadelphia Captain this year.
M. Willard, ’17, the Merion right inside,
is a former Varsity player.

Poor team work on the right side of the
field was the most apparent fault of the



Varsity team.

OR. FERREE’S ACUITY LANTERN IN
USE IN NAVAL SCHOOLS

Dr: Clarence Errol Ferree demon-
strated his apparatus for testing visual
acuity at low illuminations before the
fifteenth annual meeting of the American
Ophthalmological Society held last June
in Atlantic City. The lantern is now
being used in naval schools, hospitals,
and on battleships to test the fitness of
men for all kinds of look-out work, for
signaling, and for all work requiring
acute vision at low illuminations. Clinics
also are using the apparatus to test for
astigmatism.

Trustees Meet With C. A. Board -

last night, to discuss the work of the Chris-}

Asa Wing and Mr. Charles Rhoads are on
the committee. This is the first time that
such a conference has been held between
students and trustees.

The question of sending delegates to the
International Student Volunteer Confer-
ence in Des Moines was brought up. The
News went to print before the results of
the meeting were announced.

BANNER TO HANG FOR TENNIS

Vote to Form Class Swimming Squads
to Work for Championship

Tennis was made a major sport at a
meeting of the Athletic Association last
Tuesday night. There was some opposi-
tion, led by E. Cope, ’21, who argued that
a game depending on individual ability
alone should not equal in importance a
game depending on team work; but the
motion was finally passed by a large ma-
jority. The banner of the class winning
tennis will hang on the gymnasium before
the basketball season.

Swimming is to be organized by squads
which will practice to make one of the five
swimming classes. Each person making
the first class wins 3 points towards the
All-Round Athletic Championship; second
class, 2 points; third class, 1 point; fourth
class, 4 point; and fifth class, 14 point.
Insignia, designating the number of the
class, is to be worn on the bathing suits.

Alumnz Association Needs Business
Basis

Alumnez affairs on a business basis and
provision for the expense of an alumnz
office and an Executive Secretaryship, was
the decision of the Board of Directors.
The standing committees of the Associa-
tion met by invitation with the board at
the regular meeting on October 15th to
confer on the budget required by an alumnz
office, and the personnel of the Board of
Directors to be elected in January.

The Quart\ ‘vy must be placed on a pay-
ing basis, the conference decided. It is now
the largest drain on the treasury.

The chairman reported the expenses of
the finance committee during the first six
months of this year had been limited to
$457.56. This amount, which does not indi-
cate small contributions, in the way of ex-
penses made by class collectors, includes the
approximate cost of the drive for the Vic-
tory Chair. The conference considered this
very small for the $56,000.00 raised for the
endowment. Since much of the work for
the endowment and collections will in
future be done by the alumnz office, it was
voted that a proportionate amount of the
running expenses should be charged against
endowment fund collections and paid, as
in all money-raising compaigns, from the
funds collected, such a charge in no one
year to exceed ten per cent of the collec-
tions of the year.

The Victory Chair campaign last spring
proved to the Board the absolute necessity
of an alumnz office with an eight-hour day.
Since June 15th an alumnz office and an
Executive Secretary have taken over much
of the routine work of the Treasurer and
the Corresponding Secretary. This organi-
zation, it is thought, will mean greater effi-
ciency and closer co-operation between the
various districts. It is hoped to expand
materially the scope of the Association.
The business long ago outgrew the orig-

1921 Finds New Use for War Whoop

tian Association. Mr. Rufus Jones, Mr, {Baldwin Lucke, wee

“Something new under the sum” in the

way of Banner Shows was discovered last
Saturday’ night when 1921 presented the
Freshmen with an ingeniously parodied
version of “Hiawatha.”
Following the plot of the original poem,
the Juniors told their own life-story
through the career of Hiawatha, from his
introduction to Gitchie Gumee, or Bryn
Mawr, under the care of the old Nakomis,
and his adventures on the warpath against
the blue Keewees, to his highly sentimental
love story with Minnehaha, or 1923.

By twisting the lines in a way that must
have struck horror into the shade of Long-
fellow, the revisers managed to put a good
deal of local color into the familiar poem.
Low-brow members of the audience, how-
ever, missed the catchy music and choruses
of former Banner Shows. Unfortunately,
such rare lines as “down the Main Line to
Paoli” and “lift up your great legs in run-
ning,” were buried only too deep in. well-
worn paens to the forest primaeval.

If the action dragged at times through
the over-wordiness of the dialogue, the
scenery amid which the young Hiawatha
grew so rapidly to manhood left nothing to
be desired. The totem poles with the class
animals, the background of “sky-blue
waters” and particularly the glowing camp-
fire around which the braves. gathered were
well executed, and the lighting effects ex-
tremely successful.

High lights in the show were Baldwin
Lucke, Jr.’s appealing interpretation of the
infant Hiawatha, M. P. Kirkland’s Medi-
cine Man, and E. Cecil’s realistic imperson-
ation of the sleuthing Pau-puk-keewis, or
1922, who begs Minnehaha to “break tra-
dition and fly with him.” Not even his
gift of the peace pipe, however, could pre-
vail upon her when compared with the red
tam offered by Hiawatha.

The cast included:

Organized For Two-Million

Local chairmen and district committees
are being rapidly organized for the Endow-
ment drive. Alumnz present at a confer-
ence held at Bryn Mawr, September 25th
and 27th, are now carrying out the general
plans.

Personal interviews are substituted for
advice by mail wherever possible. October
10th, Acting-President Taft and Louise
Congdon Francis, president of the Alumnz
Association, met a number of Alumnz at
a luncheon in Boston at the College Club.
Local organization was considered.

Among those present were: Mary Rich-
ardson Walcott, '06; Katharine Page Lor-
ing, "13; Sylvia Scudder Bowditch, ‘01;
Elizabeth Winsor Pearson, 92; Catherine

was the senior orals according to the songs

and traditions of past college generations.
- All wrongs and grievances could be allied
with that one injustice. In the impassioned
eloquence of 1910's song, social wrongs were
even lined up with this crying evil. “The
railroad trusts” begin it, and further :—

“Inhumane child labor laws,

And Mormons in the Senate—
The sweat shop, that’s another thing,

It can be put most graphic;
Unequal suffrage, that’s a sin,

And so’s the liquor traffic.”

Time passed. The college continued to
sing its song of woe. The faculty abol-
ished orals. Suffrage won big victories.
The railroads have been in Government
hands, and the liquor traffic is gone.

Still must seniors pass through times of
stress. Written “orals” are still terrible.
Reforms, social and academic, have been
carried out—but funded brain still tyran-
nizes over proletariate ignorance. Who can
predict the outcome of the struggle?

What Will the World of Things Be?

Undreamed-of social problems are chal-
lenging the ‘World of Things as They Are.
Labor is demanding to have its rights recog-
nized. | Labor extremists are scheming to
overthrow United States democracy and
substitute a soviet government. Now, older
minds are being baffled by the situation;
soon affairs will be in the hands of those
who are today the student-body, tomorrow
the’ citizen-body.

It is mot necessary to be contemplating
work in the social service field in order to
take up an intelligent interest in the prob-
lems. They must be met by every citizen
worthy of the name. They must be met,
too, not with hide-bound conservatism,
handed down from father to child, but
with clear-eyed justice, gained from care-
ful consideration of affairs.

Unusual opportunity for investigation is
offered by the lectures given through the
World Citizenship Committee. Specialists
who have dug to the roots of their partic-
ular questions will give fair-minded sur-
veys of various problems, and a stimulus
to consider them further.

That the majority of undergraduates
wish to prepare themselves to answer the
challenge of social problems is shown by
the registration of 250 to attend the course.
But more than a majority of citizens, every
thdividual citizen, must be ready to face the
imperative questions, and to help try to
make this a World of Things as They
Ought to Be.

NEW PLANS FOR FRENCH CLUB

of years the officers have realized the ad-
visibility of placing the Association work on
a business basis.

When the Faculty Million Dollar Cam-
paign for salaries was launched in June,
the joint executive committee, representing
Directors, Faculty and Alumna, decided
that the Alumnz Office should be used as
headquarters. Bertha Ehlers, '09, Execu-
tive Secretary, was asked to act as secre-
tary for the joint committee. The amount
to be raised has now been doubled. The
active organization for two million dollars
has begun. The sum is to be completed by
June, 1920.

At the meeting of October 15 the serious-
ness of the situation was urged and the
necessity for electing the strongest possible
board in January. It was decided to con-
fer with the nominating committee and ask
them to modify their ballot if the require-
ments of the new situation made it advis-
able.

In addition to the Board of Directors,
there were present at the October meeting:
Miss Martha Thomas, representing the
Finance Committee; Miss Donnelly, the
James E. Rhoades Scholarship Committee ;
Miss Mary G. Branson, the Athletic Com-
mittee; Miss Alice Hawkins, the Alumnz
Supper Committee.

\ SPIRIT OF BIBLE STUDY TOPIC. OF

DR. MUTCH’S FIRST CLASS



Only Freshmen Allowed to Attend

The spirit of Bible study and the atti-
tude with which to approach it in order
to understand faith was the topic of Dr.
Mutch’s first Bible class for Freshmen,
held last Wednesday evening. A sincere
desire for truth—not as an academic
question—and for power to rest in that
truth, according to Dr. Mutch, would

‘lead to a knowledge of the Christian

life.
Freshmen alone are allowed to attend
this course.

The question of darkness and the cold
weather experienced in the fall tourna-
ments, and the benefit of preparing in the
spring for the summer tennis season, caused
the captains to make the decision to change
the dates for the championship matches
from the fall to the spring.

More than a thousand extra copies of
‘tthe News are being mailed weekly by
the Alumnae Association to alumnae
non-subscribers. Effort is being made
to keep the alumnae in touch with gen-
eral college activities and with the
progress of the two million dollar cam-

CAMPAIGN CENTER IN TAYLOR

“The time, the place and the money have
been arranged for in a tentative way, now
that we have a room for headquarters in
Taylor Hall,” said Miss Evans, campaign
director to a News reporter.

The room is to be furnished with com-
fortable chairs and is also to be dis-
tinguished from the neighboring class
rooms by signs. Any one who has news
to report or questions to ask will be wel-
come there, according to Miss Evans.

This change has necessitated turning the
old magazine room into a lecture room.
At present the periodical room is in the
