: clock-litke precision of the red teams won
for them first place in all the events on
first, and in six out of eight events, two
of which were tied, on second.
The Freshmen, with four second and
three third places to their credit, made
‘the next highest score on first, and on
second, 1922, winning two first, five sec-

DR. FITCH DENOUNCES SELF-
COMPLACENCY OF INTELLECTUALS
Classes Cotlege People Among the Scribes
and Pharisees
Dr. Albert Parker Fitch, speaking in
Chapel last Sunday evening, divided the
world into three classes: first, the un-
thinking majority; secondly, the scribes
and pharisees, or the more thoughtful
class; and thirdly, the absolute idealists.
“College men and women of today be-
long to the valuable middle class,” said
Dr. Fitch. “We have our codes and
live up to them. The trouble is that we
get the defects of our vi tues and the
perversions of our codes.” He pointed
out that absolute idealists were very rare
and were usually “crucified for their be-
liefs by the Scribes and Pharisees.” “The
fault with us of the middle class is that
we think of ourselves with immense
complacency. We are quick to see de-
fects: in others and niggardly in our
praise.”
In conclusion, Dr. Fitch emphasized)
the fact that the Scribes and Pharisees
are expected to uphold the institutions
of the world. “We must be constructive
without being obscurants and we must
not stone the prophets when they come”

This League of business women was
organized more than thirty years ago in
New York. It includes 115 clubs divid-
/ed into State Leagues, each with its own
central office and organization. “This
is the only organization in America do-
ing recreational wo k for girls and wom-
en which is entirely self-governing and
self-supporting. It is non-sectarian,”
said Miss Cooper, publicity agent for the
Pennsylvania League, to a News re-
porter last Saturday.
The annual conventions are held at
the larger women’s colleges, Last year’s
convention took place at Wellesley.

FAIRY PANTOMIME IS DANCED
IN GYMNASIUM
H. Zinsser and E. Kimbrough Star
Framed in the open back door of the
gymnasium, against a background of
woods, E. Kimbrough, '21, as princess,
with H. Zinsser, '20, the enchanted
prince, made an effective tableau in the
dancing pantomime last Thursday. The
pantomime, given by Miss Krantz's danc-
ing class, under her direction, t ansform-
ed the gymnasium into a magic forest,
peopled with gnomes and fairies.
After the “Elfentanz” by the gnomes,
the princess appeared, telling in panto-
mime of her lonety life. E. Boswell, ‘21, and
D. Fitz, ’23, stood out as most graceful
of the princess’ fairy attendants, and E
Ericsson, ’23, as a gnome; received much
applause for lier spirited dancing. In
briliant green and yellow doublet and
hose, the t aditional prince came to woo
the princess, and, resisting the lure of the
fairies, carried her past the armored
guards out of the forest.
