VIOLET OAKLEY, MURAL PAINTER,
WILL SPEAK HERE FRIDAY
Chosen to Do Mural Paintings in Senate
Chamber at Harrisburg
“The Idea of Illumination Within
Books and Upon Walls” will be the sub-
ject of Miss Violet Oakley’s talk in
Taylor Hall at 800 P. M. next Friday
under the auspices of the Art Club. Ad-
mission for the students of the college is
free; for outsiders, fifty cents.
Winner of the Medal of Honor at the
Panama Pacific Exhibition and of med-
als from the Pennsylvania Academy and
from the Architectural League, Miss
Oakley was chosen to do the mural
paintings for the Senate Chamber at
Harrisburg, as being the most -able
mural painter in America since Edwin
Abbey. The first five of the nine paint-
ings, which compose the “Creation and
Preservation of the Union” series, were
unveiled in Harrisburg in February, 1917,
Of Miss Oakley’s art the Public Ledger
writes: “Her work owes nothing to any
inspiration and suggestion other than
those of Miss Oakley’s own creative
imagination under the stimulus of her
extensive studies in this country and
abroad, for the greatest artistic achieve-
ment of the kind that a woman has un-
dertaken.—The Harrisburg paintings are
the most significant and beautiful mural
decorations to be seen in America.—Into
her pictures with marvelous insight and
unsparing endeavor for historical fidelity
the artist has wrought the vivid reflec-
tion of times that tried men’s souls and
found them not wanting in heroic qual-
ity and fiber.”
Miss Oakley Proves Able Speaker
Governor Brumbaugh, speaking at the
unveiling of the decorations, said: “Miss
Oakley, with unity in her soul and with
fine feeling and commanding skill has
here given expression to this great
philosophical ideal of government. The
thought that thrilled Spinoza, that car-
ried William Penn to this country, is
here vividly, adequately portrayed.”
Replying to Governor Brumbaugh’s
speech at the unveiling, Miss Oakley
proved herself not only an artist, but a
philosopher and an inspiring speaker. “A
profound wonder overwhelmed me as I
learned more and more of the great
positive constructive principle informing
the founders of Pennsylvania’s first gov-
ernment,” she said. “It can never be
adequately described, much less under-
stood by any negative statements as to
what these early friends did not do.—
I found instead some of the truths con-
cerning the light that was in them. It
will be when spiritual light again floods
the hearts of men as dazzlingly that the
great ones shall appear who are to re-
construct this battered globe.”
Miss Oakley has studied at the Penn-
sylvania Academy under Howard Pyle
and Cecilia Beaux and in Paris under
Amand-Jean, Collin and Lazar. Her
home is in Chestnut Hill, where she is
a neighbor of Jessie Willcox Smith.

VARSITY DOWNS ALL-PHILADELPHIA IN HARD FIGHT
Wins Final Game of Season
With Miss Townsend, Philadelphia,
and M. Faries, Bryn Mawr, sharing scor-
ing honors, Varsity defeated All-Phila-
delphia, 6-5, in a thrilling battle last
Saturday before 300 spectators, among
whom was President Thomas. The
teams were so evenly matched that the
outcome of the game was doubtful up
to the last minute of play.
The Philadelphia players started off
with a series of rushes, ending in a goal
by Miss Townsend, center forward,
after a quick pass in from right wing.
Throughout the game Miss Townsend
played with dash and cleverness, scoring
4 of her team’s 5 goals and covering
the entire field with irresistible speed.
Bryn Mawr scored next from a long
shot by V. Corse from the edge of the
circle shoved in by C. Bickley. After a
hard shot across by M. Tyler, right in-
side, M. Faries ran the length of the
field, cleverly evading the backs, for
Bryn Mawr’s second tally. Miss Town-
send then added two more goals for
Philadelphia, while M. Faries evened the
score with a tally for Varsity, bringing
the total to 3-3 at half time. During this
half the Philadelphia forwards out-ran
Bryn Mawr and showed a skill in evad-
ing the backs which was lacking in the|
Brown team. V. Corse, center half for}
Bryn Mawr, was clever at intercepting |
and clearing, while M. Faries, on left
wing, backed by the strong defense of
F. Bliss, played a consistently brilliant
game, showing speed and good stick
work.
At the opening of the second half it

QUAINT SETTING AND SONGS LEND
ATMOSPHERE TO SENIOR SKIT
Curtain Song Adapted From Old
Elizabethan Song by Shakespeare
Luring the Freshmen with irresistible
songs and charming costumes, 1921
transported them from an_ ultra-colle-
giate atmosphere into an enchanting
land of mediaevalism in the skit at Sen-
ior reception last Saturday night.
As the lights went up for the first
scene, “Any Freshman,” portrayed by
M. P. Kirkland, was shown talking to
an invisible room-mate. She settled
down to write a theme on mediaevalism,
exclaiming stoutly that she was not a
bit sleepy because she was “so used to
late hours at home, you know.” Soon,
however, she fell asleep and dreamed a
dream, in which a funny old Queen, a
ludicrous Jester, a Headsman and other
characters played leading parts.
The second scene revealed a mediaeval
court in full blast, with the Jester, ad-
mirably done by A. Weston, trying
vainly to amuse the Queen. Various peo-
ple were brought in to entertain her and
“Any Freshman,” who was a newcomer
at the court. A band of wandering
gypsies sang and danced delightfully to
“The Raggle Taggle Gypsies—Oh,”
while Mr. De Model-School, Three
Wise Astrologers and the Headsman
performed in turn. In the midst of the
revelry the clanging of a bell was heard,
the lights went out, the court disap-
peared and “Any Freshman” awoke to
find a fire-drill in full swing.
Curtain Song Exceptionally Good
The costuming was perfect, and with
the soft lighting gave a mediaeval set-
ting which was admirably carried out by
the music and songs. The curtain song,
which was adapted from an old Eliza-
bethean song, “Blow, Blow, Thou Win-
ter Wind,” and the song of the gypsies
were particularly good. The skit as a
whole, however, did not live up to the
high standard set by the artistic effect.
The idea was original, but the lines were
hackneyed and dull and not up to the.
level of the rest of the production. The
cast was:

Limitation of Week-ends
The question of limiting the number
of week-ends, students are allowed to
spend away from college, has been
raised for the first time at Bryn Mawr.
For many years Bryn Mawr has main-
tained a unique position among other
women’s colleges in its freed8m from
petty rules and restrictions. In spite of
having no light rule, no compulsory
chapel, no limits on week-ends, no Sat-
urday classes and other laws that mark
a college in the early stages of its evo-
lution from a boarding school, Bryn
Mawr has held its place as foremost
among women’s colleges in its intel-
lectual achievement. As long as this
desired goal can be reached by other
means than by those suggested, let us
keep our week-ends free and allow scope
for self-determination on the part of
each individual student. Public opinion
and not superimposed law should be the
rule,
“An Ounce of Prevention”
Yellow journalism is justly detested,
but legitimate information from an au-
thoritative source is essential to pro-
gress in any field. In the feverish
anxiety to raise the Endowment Fuad
last year publicity methods exceeding
the bounds of good taste were accepted.
Students were rightly annoyed when su-
perfluous, trifling and misleading inform-
ation was ruthlessly sent out all over
the country.
Margaret G. Blaine, "13, head of the
new Alumnae Office at Bryn Mawr, has
worked out a scheme of information that
is both legitimate and necessary. In
order that the college and what it stands
for may be known in all quarters so that
such drives as the Endowment Fund and
the Students’ Building may not fall on
deaf ears, reporters must not be turned
from the college doors to fabricate a
story that will alienate potential sup-
porters rather than win them. The new
plan of furnishing authorized releases to
newspapers and of guiding reporters to
the right sources deserves the support
of every student. It is a preventative
method formulated in self-defense and
not an aggressive program of concen-
trated publicity.
Art and the Artistic
It is a rare pleasure for Bryn Mawr to
welcome within a week two artists who
stand in the first rank among their con-
temporaries in their widely different
spheres, Violet Oakley and Robert
Frost. The Reeling and Writhing Club
and the Art Club, which are among
the “youngest” of the college clubs—
both founded since 1919, have achieved
something really worth while, They have
shown that art has its place even, per-
haps most of all, inside college walls.

“There's Pe a “slip”
‘not to mention incidental quizzes, li-|
brary books even over week-ends are at
a premium scarcely equaled the rest of
‘the year. Yet for hours upon end one
may search for a reserved book among
the studidus forms in the Library read-
ing room without success; signed up
under one name, passed on to a friend

object on earth. As a last resort, at eight

A La Mode
Strange unwonted forms frequent the
lower parts .of the gymnasium these
evenings. Costumes, never from Paris
or Fifth Avenue, are to be seen, rivaling
the wildest freaks of the imagination.
From the Arabian sheik’s robe to the
colonial uniform of the French Zouave,
many styles modes are combined re-

Can it be that Bryn Mawr is setting it-

Not at all; it is only that the water polo

Week-ends and the Merit Law
To the Editor of The College News:
If too many week-ends are interfering
with the academic work of the college,
why not connect them with the work-
ings of the merit law? Would it not be
possible to arrange a scale, say an un-
limited number for students receiving
high credit in their quizzes and exams,
a certain number for those with credit,
fewer for merit, and so on down? This
would bear heaviest on those who most
need to study and thus would be fairer
than any arbitrary curtailment of privi-

ILLINOIS COLLEGE ADOPTS
UNIVERSAL HONOR SYSTEM
Rockford College, Rockford, IIll., has
recently organized and adopted an
Honor System, applying to all branches
of college activity, class-room honor,
house rules and social regulations. Any
student violating the rules will be tried
by the Student Council and, if ntces-
sary, recommended to the president of
the college for expulsion.
Need for Teachers Still Great
Shortage of teachers throughout the
United States is still a serious problem,
according to reports received from a
large number of county and district su-
perintendents. As the result of an in-
vestigation conducted by the National
Education Association it was found that
average conditions are slightly better
than last year where salaries were raised,
but there are a great number of schools
which have no teachers or only incom-
petent ones. A great need is felt for ap-
plicants to fill these positions, who have
had two or more years of training after
high school.

ALUMNAE OFFICE WORKING FOR
RIGHT SORT OF PUBLICITY
Margaret G. Blaine, '13, the new Exe-
cutive Secretary of the Alumnae A$so-
ciation, discussing the problem of pub-
licity with a number of undergraduates
last Sunday afternoon, declared that her
aim was to give the newspapers legiti-
mate information about the college. Re-
leases describing important events at
Bryn Mawr will be sent through sthe
Alumnae Office to leading newspapers.
Reporters coming to the college will be
given what assistance is possible; in this
way, Miss Blaine hopes, they will be
inconspicuous and will not resort to sen-
sational write-ups for lack of other ma-
terial.
Alumnae to Have New Taylor Office
Classroom _D, on the first floor of
Taylor Hall, will be the Alumnae Office
as soon as necessary alterations are
made. According to Miss Blaine, the
room will probably be divided into sec-
tions, a stenographer’s room and a con.
sulting room beside the main room. Pic-
tures of college events will be sold in
the new office as they were in the alum-
nae room in Taylor Hall last year.
There will also be newspapers and mag-
azines from other colleges where stu-
dents may read them.

ITALIANS OF THREE PROVINCES
MOW BRYN MAWR CAMPUS GRASS
(Contributed by a News’ Heeler)
Twelve of the thirteen campus Italians
come from the Abruzzi and Rome, and
only one from Naples. A more equal di-
vision of northerners and southerners,
according to Mr. Chandler, the superin-
tendent of buildings and grounds, would
result in “rows,” since the sectional
rivalry, which Italy asserts to have out-
grown, persists among the day laborers
in America. Fortunately for the peace
of campus, Naples is in the minority.
Out of the thirteen, ten are married
and have from two to twelve children.
Except Palmerio Delfrizzi, lately ar-
rived, all have been in America between
eight and twenty years, and Frank An-
triola and Pasquale Falcone have
worked on the campus for fourteen
years.
The electricians, carpenters, painters
and plumbers, also the upholsterer and
tinsmith on the campus, are native-born
Americans.

ALUMNAE WORKER DESCRIBES
GIRLS’ SCHOOL IN SHANGHAI
Letter Received in Answer to Queries
by World Citizenship Committee
During the Summer the World Citizen-
ship Committee undertook to have letters
written to various alumnae who are
engaged in educational work abroad.
Among the answers received in reply to
the inquiries was one from Margaret
Handy Bates, 05 (Mrs. William M.
Porterfield), describing the mission
school in Shanghai, where she is one of
the voluntary teachers. She writes:
“On the same compound as St. John’s
University is the girls’ school St. Mary’s
Hall,” to which, according to the circu-
lar enclosed, the students are drawn from
all over China, Borneo and other Asiatic
islands. The courses in English and
Chinese include a variety of educational
and cultural subjects, so that graduates
have gone out into many fields of work.
Continuing, Mrs. Porterfield says: “We
teachers work for the personal touch
with the students and are with them a
good deal in their work and play. The
girls are fine and are wild to learn, you
never have to urge them to study but
rather the other way. We have made a
great effort to popularize physical exer-
cise and games, and now the girls play
tennis, mild golf, captain ball and have
a track meet and a flourishing athletic

Mawr campus—which is saying a good
deal!
“I think that work here is as satis-
fying as it would be anywhere. Naturally
one does not work for a salary—that is
small—but the results are worth a lot.
Of course, we need teachers, trained ones
with college degrees, and some one for
primary and playground work. Many

I wish Bryn Mawr were not so expen-
sive, as I would like them to go thera,”
RED AND DARK BLUE TIE ON 2ND
Juniors Win Second Game of Finals
With E. Rogers starring at left wing
through her speed and good stick work,
1922 overwhelmed the Seniors, 5-2, in
the second match of the finals on sec-
ond last Friday. The first game went to
the Seniors, with a score of 5-2,
Jumping into the lead with a clean
goal by C. Mottu, 1921 seemed likely to
repeat the victory of the previous Mon-
day. The Blue forwards, however, ral-
lied, carrying the ball down the field in
a clever combination play by O. Howard
and M. Voorhees, ending in a goal by
the latter player. A second tally for the
Juniors brought the score to 2-1 at half
time.
During the second half the play was
scrappy and marked by the powerful
defense of J. Palache, Junior fullback,
and the spectacular runs of E. Jay, Sen-
ior right wing. O. Howard, ’22, played
a dependable game at center forward,|
scoring two more goals, while E. Beck-
with tallied one for the Seniors. The
last goal was scored by E. Rogers after
a speedy run and a long shot from the
edge of the circle.
Line-up—1921: E. Jay, L. Beckwith,*
C. Mottu,* M. Smith, H. James, J.
Spurney, J. Peyton, M. Morton, C. Gar-
rison, A. Taylor, M. Morrison.
1922: M. Crosby, M. Voorhees,* O.
Howard,** P. Norcross,* E. Rogers,* C.
Cameron, P. Smith, M. Kennard, H. M.
Jennings, J. Palache, G. Rhett.
SENIORS CONQUER ON THIRD
Overwhelming the Freshmen, 6-0, in a
messy game, 1921 emerged victorious in
the last game of the finals on third team
last Saturday.
Starting off with a rush, the Senior
team kept the ball in Freshman terri-
tory so that 1921’s goal was never se-
riously threatened. I. Lauer played a
strong game for the Seniors, scoring
three of their goals, while M. S. Goggin
put up a powerful defense. The Fresh-
man team was disorganized and lacked
team work.
Line-up—1921; E. Bliss, V. Evans, I.
Lauer, E. Collins, M. Smith, E. Godwin,
K. Woodward, B. Warburg, M. S. Gog-
gin, J. Brown, H. Stone.

Seniors Defeat 1923 in Preliminaries
«Defeating the Sophomores, 3-1, in the
lk ous of the preliminaries, 1921 won
its , into the finals on fifth team last
Tuesday. The softness of the field re-
sulted in a hit-and-miss game which
afforded no outstanding feature. J.
Flexner, 21, played a dependable game
at center forward, scoring two of the
goals, while K. Prewitt was speedy on
the Sophomore line.
Line-up—1921: B. Kellogg, I. Magin-

rest of the game.

ENGLISH HOCKEY CRITIC COM.
MENTS ON PLAYING OF PHILA-
DELPHIA TEAM
Writing for the November 13th issue
of the Woman’s Field, Mr. Eustace
White, a well-known English hockey
expert, criticizes the playing of the Phil-
adelphia team-which is
England in a series-¢
“In the few mipiutes
tice around the /goal,”
speaking of a practice
rey, “it was obvious that the American
ladies were nteean hitters. Their man-
ner of holding ir hands wide apart
precluded such a possibility. There was
too much hitting about their game and
too little passing.” Mr, White also com-
mented on the extreme heaviness of the
Philadelphians’ sticks which hindered
any finessing or quick passing. He
praised their “vigor and dash” in play
and commended their eagerness to im-
prove and pick up useful lessons from
their opponents.
An English write-up of the All-Eng-
land vs. Philadelphia game, won by
England, 16-0, commenting on the nose
guard worn by G, Hearne, ‘19, right
wing of the American team, said, “Miss
G. Hearne, a Yankee forward, stirred
British curiosity by wearing a regula-
tion football nose guard such as is used
by scrimmagers at Harvard and Yale in
their fierce confiicts.”

FENCING DEMONSTRATION TO BE
GIVEN BY ITALIAN EXPERT
ee
In the Gymnasium Tomorrow Afternoon
Mr. Leonardo Terrone, Director of
the Fencers’ Club of Philadelphia, has
been obtained by the Gymnasium De-
partment to give a demonstration of
fencing in the gymnasium at 4.15, Thurs-
day, December 9th.
The Italian Government presented a
medal to Mr. Terrone in 1906 in appre-
ciation of his work in popularizing fenc-
ing in the United States, for which he
arranged a system based on Italian and
French duels adapted, as he says, to
American temperament and modern
physical training. In this way, to quote
his treatise on fencing, Mr. Terrone felt
that he “could offer fencing to all as a
pleasant, highly interesting game, espe-
cially appealing to people of culture and
refinement; an essentially gentleman’s
sport, both by reason of its history and
tradition and the qualities essential to
its perfection; and one of the best all-
around exercises.”
Three competitors in the army compe-
titions in Paris were Mr. Terrone’s pu-
pils, and he also coached some of the
American fencers at the Olympic Games.
He has himself taken part in a duel, in
which he was wounded.
Fencing has long been one of the
sports on the Winter schedule at col-
lege. The Athletic Association held
bouts with the alumnae one year. One
hundred and twelve students have signed
for fencing this Winter. The General
Folk Dancing will be held in the period
following Mr. Terrone’s demonstration.
SENIORS TRIUMPHANT ON FOURTH
Scoring 9 goals against the Freshmen,
1921 was victorious in the last game of
the finals on fourth team last Monday.
The Red team plunged into the offen-
sive at the outset, taking a lead which
kept the ball almost entirely in Fresh-
man territory.
With K. Johnston, right inside, star-
ring with four goals to her credit, the
Senior forward line developed good
passing. E. Collins played a dependable
game at left inside, scoring two goals,
while E. Bliss was quick on right wing
and evaded the backs cleverly. The
Freshman forward line, although quick,
shot wildly and was demoralized by
1921’s powerful backs, never once se-
riously threatening the Senior goal.
Line-up—1921: E. Bliss,* K. Johns-
ton,**** I. Lauer,** E. Collins,*** D.
Lubin, H. Bennett, P. Ostroff, M. Bald-
win, J. Brown, D. Klenke, E. Boswell.

LEAGUE OF WOMEN VOTERS WANTS
BRYN MAWR MEMBERSHIP
To Be Stbject of Chapel Talk at 8.30
The Non-Partisan League of Women
Voters, of which Mrs. George Gellhorn
(Edna Fischel, ’00) is vice-president,
working for civic reform and social bet-
terment, wants to establish a branch at
every woman’s college, first of all at
Bryn Mawr. Mrs. Carroll Miller (Emma
Guffey, ’'99), organizer of the Middle
State Division of the League, has been
asked to speak in chapel next Thursday
or Friday on this subject.
Mrs. Miller, a member of the first
committee of the Democratic Party,
spoke throughout the state for the
Democratic ticket during the campaign.
Chapel will begin at 8.30.
EUROPEAN STUDENTS WORK UNDER
SHOCKING LIVING CONDITIONS
Hoover Appeals for Relief Funds «
Investigation of conditions in Central
and Eastern European universities have
been made by the American Relief Ad-
ministration, of which Mr. Herbert
Hoover is chairman. A State of affairs
described as “distressing” was discov-
ered, according to the report of the ad-
ministration, which makes an appeal for
aid to a relief movement.
In the universities students are at-
tempting to live on two meagre meals a
day, in filthy rooms without heat or ade-
quate light, and with a few ragged gar-
ments as clothing. On account of labor
conditions, it is impossible for students
to earn even the barest pittance which
will support them, and professors, for-
merly world authorities, do not receive
? living wage.
According to Mr. Hoover a decadence
of European intellect will be manifest
if this state of affairs is not soon alle-
viated. In recognition of the fact, stu-
dent organizations in the British Em-
pire and Holland have sent material
relief. Here the American Relief Admin-
istration appeals to the students of
\merica to aid in raising funds which
will enable the administration to under-
take self-help schemes for these Eu-
ropean students in order to make life
and education possible for them.
The University of California is making
plans for a stadium, which will seat
more than the Yale bowl, costing over
$600,000.
Wellesley is planning to raise $300,000
for a students’ building as part of its
Endowment Fund.
Beginning next Fall, Ohio State Uni-
versity will become a year-round col-
lege, with four terms a year, says the
Radcliffe News.
With the aim of making the Alumnae
Association more representative and
unified, the Alumnae Board and the
special committee on reorganization met
in Bryn Mawr on November 22nd and
23rd.
To keep the alumnae in all parts of
the country in touch with each other
and with the college, seven councillors
have been appointed, each one in charge
of a district. These councillors will man-
age publicity in their districts among
the schools and in newspaper articles.
They will also keep in touch with the
college and be a means of keeping other
alumnae in their districts informed
about events of interest at Bryn Mawr.
Three times a year the councillors plan
to meet with the Alumnae Board and
the Executive Secretary, the chairman
of the standing committees, one of the
Alumnae Directors and one of the Di-
rectors-at-Large.. One of these meet-
ings will be held away from Bryn Mawr.
Admitting to the Association associate
members with the full rights and privi-
leges of full members was discussed.
By-Laws were considered in part with
a view toward securing greater elasticity
of procedure.
“The Bryn Mawr Bulletin,” the new
alumnae monthly magazine, will publish
full minutes of the conference in the
January number.
COMMUNITY CENTER CELEBRATES
THANKSGIVING WITH TABLEAUX
Dr. Mutch Reads From Gov. Bradford’s
Book, “History of Plymouth”
Thirty boys and girls of the Bryn
Mawr and Preston Community Centers
presented a series of fourteen tableaux,
“The Story of the Pilgrims,” in celebra-
tion of the three hundredth anniversary
of the landing of the Pilgrims, to an
audience of over 500 people on Novem-
ber 23rd, the Tuesday before Thanks-
giving, at the Bryn Mawr Fire House.
Dr. Andrew Mutch, of the Bryn Mawr
Presbyterian Church, lending great at-
rites de ae performance in_ his
Puritan costume, read before each tab-
leau from Governor Bradford’s “History
of Plymouth” of 1630, upon which the
whole “production was chronologically
based, from the leaving of Holland to
the first Thanksgiving. In this last
scene a brown crepe paper turkey fig-
ured largely but not so realistically as
the pumpkin pies, which were later
served to the actors.
Composed and directed by Miss Helen
Barrett, ’13, Director, and Miss Whar-
ton, one of her assistants, the tableaux
strove especially to be authentic and
bring out the reciprocal help of Pilgrims
and Indians. Much original work was
done by the club leaders of the Center
in costuming. A troup of Girl Scouts
under I. Magginis, '21, were among the
players, as well as mentbers of the Girls’
Club, which K. Goldsmith, ’23, directs.

GLEE CLUB TO GIVE “GEISHA GIRL”)
DURING SECOND SEMESTER
Contrary to the usual Gilbert and
Sullivan tradition, “The Geisha Girl,” a
light opera, with the lyrics by Harry
Greenbank and the music by Sidney
Jones, has been chosen by the Glee Club
for its performance this year. Try-outs
for pow will begin next week when
the scores arrive.
The scene of “The Geislia Girl” is
laid in Japan. The opera consists of two
acts, the first in the tea house of “The
Ten Thousand Joys,” and the second at
“Chrysanthemum Day” in \the Palace
Gardens. There are thirteen vocal parts
and several minor characters in the
cast.
In 1918-19 the Glee Club gave “The
Pirates of Penzance,” by Gilbert and
Sullivan, in which L. Grim, Junior song
leader, took the heroine’s part. Last year
there was no Glee Club performance on
account of May Day.
Glee Club officers for 1920-21 are: E.
Kimbrough, '21, leader; E. Boswell, ’21,
secretary, and F. Childs, ’23, stage man-
ager. :
SOCIAL SERVICE TEA GIVEN FOR
MISS BARRETT AND WORKERS
Under the auspices of the Social Serv-
ice Committee a tea was held for Miss
Helen Barrett, 15, Director of the Com-
munity Center, and all Community Cen-
ter workers, last Thursday afternoon in
E. Mathew’s room in Pembroke West,
to exchange ideas and plans. A reor-
ganization of last year’s ten-cent teas
was also discussed.
It was decided to hold teas this year
once a month for Center workers, each
one having the privilege of bringing a
friend interested in social service work
of any kind though unable to work at
the Center. Special talks will be given
from time to time on subjects related to
Community Center work, for instance,
Americanization, thus keeping the inter-
est in genuinely social service fields.
