PEMBROKE DANCE TO CROWN
ANNUAL CHRISTMAS REVELS

Hall Parties Revive Old Customs
Merion Will Have Tea Dance

A Christmas celebration in each hall will
‘culminate in a fancy dress dance in Pem-
broke, at 7 o’clock next Monday night. A
buffet supper, will be served under the
management of D. Meserve, '23, after
which Pembroke will open its doors to
the other halls. The Freshman stunt,
which will be given at 9 o'clock, is being
‘managed by L. Ford.

Old English customs will be revived in
Radnor and Denbigh. F. Bliss, ’22, toast-
mistress, and M. Tyler, ’22, song mistress,
will lead the Yule Log and Boar’s Head
ceremonies in Radnor. In Denbigh, W.
Worcester, ’21, as the Master of the House,
‘and M. Holt, ’23, as the Mistress, will pre-
side over the revels.

A tea dance with music by the same
orchestra that plays in Pembroke at night,
will be held in Merion. During the buffet
supper there will be stunts by all classes.
Rockefeller, under the management of G.
Trotter,,’21, is also having speeches during
‘dinner, and a general stunt in which every
class is represented.

Soviet Upholders Win Debate: Down
Supporters of Old Czarist Regime

That Soviet government offers the
Russian people better opportunity for
development than they enjoyed during
the last ten years of the Czar’s reign,
was decided by the judges’ award at a
hotly contested debate, held last Wed-
nesday by the Debating Club, under the
auspices of the World Citizenship Com-
mittee of the Christian Association. The
affirmative team was H. Stone, ’21; B.
Warburg, '21; and L. Bunch, ’22. The
negative, O. Howard, ’22; I. Beaudrias,
‘eo, 200 &. Karns, 21.

Because the affirmative side had more
arguments not met by the negative, the
judges, Margaret Brown, ’00, warden of
Merion; C. Garrison, ’21, and J. Flex-
ner, ’21, decided two to one in their
favor. The negative, they said, pre-
sented their arguments more coherently
and effectively, O. Howard and I. Beau-
drias speaking particularly ‘well.

Helen Stone Makes Rebuttal

Summarizing points for her side in
the rebuttal, when she had showed the
injustices under the Czar’s reign, H.
Stone said: “After a period of Czarist
misrule, Soviet communism stands be-
fore the world as having given Russia
the vote for all men, with an executive
committee that can be recalled by the peo-
ple, political equality of men and women,
education for all in many branches, the
abolition of the poll tax, and division of
all the land among all the people.”

Restriction of the press under soviet-
ism was stressed by the negative, de-
struction of the peasants’ ambition when
they must turn over their surplus to the
state, the exclusive communist principles
taught in the schools, the breaking down
of family life, and the miserable living
conditions.

In answering the negative, Miss Stone
urged the fact that the comparison was
between Russia during the ten years of
Czarism, seven of which were peaceful,
with the country under three years of
communism, suffering from exterior and
interior wars and blockade, which have
necessitated restrictions like those on
the press, the amount of food allowed
the people, and the subjects taught in
schools.

VARSITY; CRUSHES BALTIMORE
TEAM IN 11-2 VICTORY

me

C. Bickley Stars for Bryn Mawr

Varsity defeated the Mt. Washington
Club, of Baltimore, 11-2, in a post-sea-
son match last Saturday. The Baltimore
team was fast, but played out of position
and was easily held in check by the
Bryn Mawr backs.

The first half opened with a goal for
Baltimore by Miss Winand, center for-
ward, after a long run by Miss Norris,
left wing. A tally for Bryn Mawr by
K. Walker evened the score, and Var-
sity then took the lead with a goal, shot
from the edge of the circle by A. Nicoll.
For a: period then neither side scored,
the ball passing from end to end of the
field, until Miss Turnbull, right wing
for Baltimore, shot a goal in a scrim-
mage around the circle, tieing the score
at half time.



Bryn Mawr Rallies in Second Half

Starting off with a rush, Bryn Mawr
rallied in the second half, scoring nine
goals, while the Baltimore team was un-
able to penetrate the strong defense put
up by Miss Duncan, full-back; — G.
Rhoads, goal, and V. Corse, center half-
back. The play during this half was
marked by the team work of the Bryn
Mawr forward line and the clever inter-
cepting and clearing of M. Carey, ’20,
right half-back for Baltimore, and Miss
Bowen, goal-keeper. C. Bickley played
a dependable game at center forward,
scoring four goals and passing well to
the insides, while E. Cecil was quick on
right wing, taking the ball down time



and again.

School



Dr. Spaeth Will Give Piano Recital

_ and Commentary on Music

A piano recital by Dr. Spaeth, of New
York, will be given in the gymnasium
Friday evening, January 7, at 8 o'clock.
In Dr. Spaeth’s recitals, according to the
American Piano Company, under whose
auspices the concert is given, “the works
of the great masters are interpreted by
the leading ‘pianistic virtuosi of the day,
with illuminating commentary on con-
temporary music and the ideals and
ideas of the artists. .

“Dr. Spaeth’s work has thus far been
so very successful that we wish to give
every prominent college the opportunity
of having one of these evenings.”



ORIGINALITY IN POETRY IS
STRESSED BY ROBERT FROST

Gives First Lesson in Verse Making

Robert Frost, the New England poet,
made his second visit to Bryn Mawr this
winter, when he addressed the writing
members of the Reeling and Writhing
Club on Thursday evening and gave in-
terviews to fourteen members on Friday.

Mr. Frost has been engaged to meet
four times with the Reeling and Writh-
ing Club to give a course in writing
poetry. The first of his visits was Oc-
tober-30,-when-he-read~ from his” poems
in Taylor Hall. February 16 he is ex-
pected again to talk to Club members
only on “Fetching and Far-Fetching,” a
discussion of metaphor and _ allied fig-
ures as used in poetry,

Finds Influence of John Masefield

In the work of the Bryn Mawr stu-
dents, Mr. Frost said that he found
traces of the influence of Amy Lowell,
John Masefield and Rupert Brook, but
not of Vachel Lindsay. “To achieve
originality,” said Mr. Frost, “you must
eliminate all the not-you.” There are
two growing moods in writing verse—
one when the poet loses himself in the
inspiration of the moment. Later comes
the critical mood, where all the unorig-
inal and poor parts must be eliminated.
“There should be enough fire and
warmth in a young poet for him to be
able to sacrifice some of it
form,” said Mr. Frost.

“The great poet or writer of any kind
shows himself by his metaphors,” said
Mr. Frost. Metaphors, such as “brand-
new” and “nettled,” are woven into all
our speech, Mr. Frost explained. “These

are useless for poetical purposes. Our

to gain

business as poets is to make new ones.”
Leaves Questions With Writhers

Mr. Frost left several questions with
his class. Among these were, What dis-
tinction do you make between invention
and imagination? Does the subject mat-
ter of poetry come from anything
beyond sight and insight, if sight is
used to denote all senses?

Mr. Frost dined in Denbigh on Thurs-
day evening, when members of the Har-
mony Club of the Senior Class arranged
special singing in the dining-room. On
Friday, Mr. Frost lunched with Presi-
dent Thomas in the Deanery.

Any one who has written at any time
for the Reeling and Writhing Club may
talks. Interviews
will be given only to those who have
submitted work to Mr.°Frost. Poems
should be given either to E. Page, ‘23,
or M. Willcox, '22

come to Mr. Frost's

VIOLET OAKLEY SHOWS HIGH
_ IDEALISM IN TALK ON ART

Illumination in Books and on Walls
the Subject of Illustrated Lecture
Dressed in a striking gown of mediae-

val design and reading from a gold-bound,
hand-illuminated manuscript, Violet Oakley,
foremost among the mural painters in
America, spoke last Friday evening, in Tay-
lor Hall, under the auspices of the Art
Club, on the “Idea of Illumination Within
Books and Upon Walls.” Reproductions
of the vivid illuminated letters wrought
by churchmen of the early centuries, of
the vast frescoes which cover the walls
of Italian churches, and of the illustra-
tions of Pyle and du Maurier were used
by Miss Oakley to show her Bryn Mawr
audience how some of the greatest deco-
rators have carried out their ideals of
art.

Addressing the members of the Art
Club and Miss King’s classes in her au-
dience, Miss Oakley said: “You are
proving your appreciation of the vital
relation of art to your own lives and
your realization that life is itself an art
—the finest, surely, of all the arts. And
you are thus proving your worthiness to
enjoy the privilege of life amidst the
architectural fitness and beauty which
is Bryn Mawr, thanks to the wisdom,
knowledge and judgment and_unerring
taste of your distinguished president,
Miss Thomas.

“The slides I have selected to show
you are of pictures which have meant
so much more to me than the still-life
paintings of a jug and a mass of fruit
on a table, which fill our galleries,” said
Miss Oakley. The first slides showed
initials and pages from early manu-
scripts. “When people say to me, ‘I
would love to be an artist, but I cannot
draw a straight line,’ I want to say to
them, ‘Learn to write beautifully; learn
to manuscribe, and you can then paint
as easily as any and every scribe in the

Raymond Fosdick Coming Saturday
Night to Explain Police Systems

“Police Systems in Europe and Amer-
ica” will be the subject of a lecture by
Raymond Fosdick, Saturday evening, at
8 o'clock, in Taylor Hall, under the au-
spices of the History Club. Doctor Fos-
dick is an authority on the question, having
spent the year 1913 in Europe as represen-
tative of the Rockefeller Bureau of Social
Hygiene, studying police organizations in
different countries.

As chairman during the war of the Com-
mittee on Training Camp Activities, Mr.
Fosdick worked with Secretary Baker in
the “checking of moral hazards frequently
associated with camp life.” He is a mem-
ber of the Citizens’ Council of the National
Social Unit organization, which plans to
work out in other cities the democratic
Social Unit experiment that has been in
practice a year in Cincinnati.

Mr. Fosdick is the author of “European
Police Systems.”

tion.

Chris’mus Gif!

Even in the best regulated families omis-
sions are sometimes made in the list of
Christmas presents. This year, even though
debutante cousin’s feather arm band or
Aunt Netty’s inevitable lavendar sachets be
forgotten, one memorandum should be un-
derscored on every Bryn Mawr list: “To
the Students’ Building—one fat cheque.”

The Higher the Fewer

We all realize that upon the small groups
of Freshmen that hold session after 10.30
P. M., the responsibility of rearranging the
world rests. They have come here to learn
to be leaders, and it is seemly that they
should discuss seriously problems of the
greatest weight. Often, no doubt, argu-
ments exchanged in these meetings are
beneficial, and probably the later the hour
the greater the benefit. During the ensu-
ing two years, however, these pioneers thin
out, or turn their attention to more local
situations, or even degenerate to gossip.
We hear that by the time Senior year
comes, the erstwhile leaders crawl away to
bed early, considering nothing more impor-
tant than a good night’s sleep.

Bryn Mawr or New York

Week-ending at Bryn Mawr bids fair to
become a much looked-forward to, instead
of dreaded, event. What with dances in
the gymnasium, instituted by a spirited
organization in Merion, and numerous teas
on Sunday afternoons, those who plead a
desire for the gay social life as their reason
for leaving each week-end, all find them-
selves bereft of an excuse.

RED CROSS MEMBERSHIP LOW
1923 HAS HIGHEST PERCENT

With 1923 receiving the banner for
the largest per cent membership, about
250 members joined the Red Cross in
the recent college drive, through the So-
cial Service Committee; $24 was received
from tle faculty and staff, $8 from the
graduate students and $10 from the

Compared with last year, when almost
100 per cerit membership was obtained
from the college, the present results are

Gifted sdbibemastaans Destitute

To the Editor of the College News:
Madam: An English friend living in
Switzerland has found two very gifted
mathematicians in a state of destitution
in Vienna. One is a boy of twenty-two,
named Kerékjart6é, who was practically
starving; the other a Professor Dienes,
who has a wife and two little boys, aged

four and six. The children were put in

a home for abandoned children sup-
ported by an English mission, but the
home was so overcrowded and the food
so inadequate that they were pining
away; Madame Dienes was giving danc-
ing lessons to try to support them. Pro-
fessor Hadamard told my friend about
them, and she has decided to ask them
all to come to live in her house in Vaud.

She has appealed to me to ask for
help in America to buy the food neces-
sary for the five visitors until they can
be got into England, where modest po-
sitions have been found for them. There
are, however, still difficulties in getting
admission to England to take up work.

Two dollars a day is necessary for the
food. It has occurred to me that stu-
dents who have been planning to give
to the Hoover Fund for Starving Chil-
dren, or knowing friends who are sub-
scribing to the fund, might be willing

to give me a portion of their subscrip-

tion, knowing that it will go to scholars
who are suffering from no fault of their
own. These unfortunate people are
Hungarians and took no interest in the
war.
Sincerely yours,
IsABEL MADDISON.

CHRISTMAS TEA FOR FOREIGN
STUDENTS NEXT SUNDAY

Twenty foreign members of the Inter-
national Students’ Club in Philadelphia
will be entertained in Merion at a tea
given by the World Citizenship Com-
mittee next Sunday. Invitations have
also been issued to the foreign students
at Bryn Mawr and to other graduates
and undergraduates to meet the students
from other’ countries,

DIRECTORS SEND RESOLUTIONS
TO ENDOWMENT COMMITTEE



Mrs. Slade Recognized Especially

Resolutions expressing the gratitude
of the directors of the college have been
sent to Mrs. Caroline McCormick Slade
and members of the joint committee of
the Bryn Mawr Endowment Fund.

Special recognition is given to Mrs.
Slade, of whom the resolutions say:
“Above all and beyond all the unex-
ampled success of the campaign is due
to the wide vision of the Chairman of
the National Committee, Caroline Mc-
Cormick Slade, to her genius for or-
ganization and to the rare power that
she possessed to put into moving and
eloquent words the love and gratitude
felt to the college by her daughters, and
to arouse in them, and also in outside
people, enthusiasm for Bryn Mawr's
ideals.”



Christmas Dolls To Be Exhibited

Ninety-four dolls, which are _ being
dressed by the students, will be on ex-
hibition in the Christian Association
Library on Saturday before they are
sent to the Sunnyside Day Nursery in
Philadelphia. The stockings being filled
will be sent to the Kensington Light-
house Settlement, to negro schools in
the South and tothe Spring Street Set-
tlement in New York. Special stockings
are being filled for seven old ladies at
the Spring Street Settlement.

Quoted from a quiz-book in Major Eng-
lish: “And the fair Cressitla acted accord-
ing to the old Romantic law of immorality.”



‘were proposed: st the eéeond meeting of

the Deanery. President Thomas presided.

Voicing a faculty opinion that the level
of the students’ work has deteriorated ; that
students who spend only four days of the
week at college have no leisure to do their

atmosphere of college, and that constant
week-ends are a drain on the health of
the students, President Thomas outlined
three remedies. The faculty may have
classes on Saturday instead of Wednesday,
and have scheduled quizzes on Mondays.
The students may regulate the number of
week-ends a student may be away from
college. Or, finally, the question may be
regulated by public opinion. The student
members of the Council were in favor of
the last proposal.

It was decided that before the next meet-
ing of the Council the class presidents
sheild take the matter up with their classes,
and that definite statistics should be com-
piled. These statistics would cover the first
semester last year and this fall up to
Christmas vacation, and would show which
classes leave college most, and whether a
great many people go away frequently or
a few go away every week-end.

Meetings May Be Held Till Six Fifteen

It was moved that the motion of the
last Council meeting, forbidding any meet-
ing after 6 o’clock, be amended to read,
“All meetings must close punctually at
6.15.” The motion was carried. The Coun-
cil decided that a recommendation to this
effect be sent to all college organizations,
and that each association should notify its
committees of this: rule.

The procedure for students who wish to
use the Gymnasium or other buildings for
meetings was outlined again. Students
should see Miss Maddison about the date,
and get permission from President Thomas,
if necessary. Miss Maddison fills out the
slip, giving the original to the student and
keeping the carbon copy, which is sent to
Miss Adair, the business manager, and then
to Miss Applebee, director of gymnastics.
The student keeps the original until she
is able to make final arrangements with
Miss Adair. This should be a week before
the entertainment, if possible, and not less
than twenty-four hours before.

Wardens and hall representatives will
discuss a system of having a fixed sum
collected from the students and distributed
by the wardens, to all maids at Christmas
and in June, according to a decision of the
Council. Extra fees could be given to
chambermaids for extra service.

ALUMNAE BULLETIN TO COMPRISE
MANY FEATURES OF INTEREST

“Campus Notes” reviewing recent im-
portant events at Bryn Mawr, a letter
column open to both alumnae and un-
dergraduates, and editorial comment on
alumnae and academic affairs both at
Bryn Mawr and in the country at large,
are departments planned for the Alum-
nae Bulletin by Margaret G. Blaine, "13.
Miss Blaine, who is also Executive Sec-
retary of the Alumnae Association, is
being assisted in editing the monthly
magazine by Dorothea Baldwin, ’13, a
member of the staff of the New Republic.

With the January number, the first
issue of the Bulletin, begins the series
of articles by President Thomas on “The
Mediterranean Basin.” “Whys of Ad-
vertising,” an article on the possibilities
of advertising in an alumnae monthly,
has been contributed by Carolyn T.
Brown, 99 (Mrs. Radnor Lewis), who is
in charge of the advertising of the Mal-
linson Silk Company in New York City.
“Campus Notes” for this issue are com-
piled by D. Burr, ’23. A complete report
of the reorganization conference and the
proposed by-laws will appear.

VIOLET OAKLEY PRAISES PYLE



(Continued from Page 1)
East..—It was Michael Angelo, the
prince of mural painters, who taught us.
that ‘when you can draw correctly so
much as a little finger, you can draw a
hand, anything in the world; then no
wall will be big enough for you, so great
is the power of design.’”

“The Church Militant and Triumph-
ant” in the Spanish chapel of Santa
Maria Novella, Florence, was one of the
most beautiful compositions of all the
large f:escoes shown. “This is one of
the first paintings that inspired me with
a desire to paint great wall surfaces,”
said Miss Oakley. »

Speaks of Pyle and Du Maurier

“The spirit of Howard Pyle is still
alive,” Miss Oakley said. “He was one
of the great masters of composition; he
taught how to create a composition from
the inside. I find his spirit very dis-
turbing at times; it forces me to do my
work over and over again.” Miss Oakley
was a student under Mr. Pyle at the
Philadelphia Academy.

A true illustrator such as Howard
Pyle or George du Maurier does not
merely repeat photographically the
words of the text, Miss Oakley pointed
out. He realizes out of the words some
parallel idea which he portrays.

Bryn Mawr Posters Praised

On her way to the Art Club reception,
after her talk, the illuminated poster
done by D. Wycoff, '21, for the Art
Club lecture arrested Miss Oakley’s at-
tention. “This is very beautifully done,”
she said after examining the work. One
of the posters was presented to Miss’
Oakley, who later told a News reporter
that the poster exactly fits into the book
containing her illuminated manuscript of
the lecture given at Bryn Mawr. Miss
Oakley and Miss Emerson, winner of
the May Day poster competition, both
complimented D. Fitz, ’23, on her work
on the May Day programs and the
poster done for Sophomore Play, which,
Miss Emerson said, achieved the poster
ideal of flatness and ‘carried’ remark-
ably well.

“I was fortunate enough,” said Miss
Oakley, “to witness your May Day fete
and to rejoice with you at the triumph-
ant conclusion of your drive.

“I have one more thing to hope for
Bryn Mawr—that you may some day
build a great cloister where I may end-
lessly paint for you a series of frescoes
representing the marvelous beauty of
that pageant of May Day—and symbol-
izing all that Bryn Mawr stands for in
the enfranchising of women.”






FENCING METHOD DEMONSTRATED
BY MR. LEONARDO TERRONE

Will Hold Classes Here

“I expect shortly to announce, supported
by proofs, that I have succeeded in taking
the game fencing away from a deteriorated
and jerky exercise and carrying it, scien-
tifically developed, to stand side by side
with the best forms of physical culture,”
writes Mr. Leonardo Terrone, director of

the Fencers’ Club, of Philadelphia, to the

News, in connection with his demonstration

of fencing, given with assistants in the

Gymnasium, last Thursday afternoon.
Mr. Terrone came to America to experi-

ment on a new method of fencing adapted | see the world look small beneath us.

to modern life. Giving fencing instruction
at the University of Pennsylvania, he
started his experiments on the basis of his
own duelling experiences in Italy. “During
these duels I noted that personal mag-
netism, increased by good mechanical habits
of the body, greatly helped, but that the
point of view, the state of mind, the psy-
chological attitude of the fencer, counted
very much,” he sajd. “I experimented for
seventeen years, and I think I finally
reached the top.”

Two prospective members of the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania Fencing team, who
accompanied Mr, Terrone, gave the first
exhibition with the foil, while he explained
points from time to time. Then Mr. Ter-
rone fenced a bout with the saber, with
Mr. Algernon Clapp, president of the
Fencers’ Club, who was a member of the
Olympic Fencing team this summer, the
former pointing out salient features of the
game.

The Gymnasium Department has ar-
ranged for Mr. Terrone to give classes
in fencing, on Thursdays. The first class
started last night. The charge is $10 for
twenty lessons.

FEDERATION OF GIRLS’ CLUBS

Carol singing on the evening of De-
cember 23 will be one of the Christ-
mas festivities of the Main Line Fed-
eration of Girls’ Clubs. A lighted can-
dle in the window is the sign for car-
ollers to stop, but they will sing espe-
cially at the houses of shut-ins and
invalids,

During the evening the singers stop
at the Community Center to gather
around the fire and drink hot chocolate.

always pays for it,” said Mr. Carl Elmore,
of Englewood, N. J., in chapel, last Sunday
evening. “The most bitter solitude is to
find oneself alone in the midst of a crowd,
hemmed around by barriers of attitude.
This is one of the experiences,” said Mr.
Elmore, “which the person who habitually
indulges in condemnation is bound to
know.”

“When we criticize others,” Mr. Elmore
explained, “we are indulging our desire to
We
often take a superior attitude in our en-
deavor to vindicate ourselves,” he con-
tinued. “The man who fears a habit always
rushes to denounce it publicly.”

Creative genius dies within the man who
criticizes too much. Mr. Elmore, pointing
out Carlyle’s last years, showed him bereft
of his genius by his continued use of the
invective.

DAIRY FARMING PART OF WORK
OF CHINESE MISSIONARY

Alice Ropes Kellogg, ’06, at Shaowu

Modern dairy farming is\ part of ‘the
work of Alice Ropes, 06 (Mrs. Edwin
Kellogg), of the Shaowu Mission, an
agricultural experiment station in China,
according to a letter received by O. How-
ard, ’22, World Citizenship Committee.

“Dr. Bliss, a physician working under
the American Board, has used original
methods for inoculating cows for rhin-
derpest, one of the great scourges of the
neighborhood,” writes Mrs. Kellogg. “This
winter he has been able to lower the price
of milk, thus relieving great want. Doctor
Bliss has taught an educated Chinese to do
this inoculating work in order to spread
the discovery among the natives,” she con-
cludes.



DELEGATE REPORTS ON STUDENT
GOVERNMENT CONFERENCE



May Not Go to Concerts Unchaperoned

“Bryn Mawr is the only one of the|
eighty colleges east of the Mississippi| —

represented at the Conference that does
not have faculty members on its stu-
dent organization boards,” said K. Gard-
ner, 22, in her report to the Self-Gov-
ernment Association, on Tuesday, De-
cember 7th, on the Student Government
Conference at Elmira, New York, to
which she and M. Foot, ’21, were dele-
gates.

Other colleges have one student or-
ganization with a larger board than our
boards, instead of the four organizations
at Bryn Mawr. Vassar, Smith, Swarth-
more, Goucher and other colleges have
the honor system for examinations, and
considered it works, although they ad-
mitted some cheating, averaging one stu-
dent a year. Reporting on each other
seemed essential to a successful honor
system. Many colleges had a 10 o'clock
light rule, and some required the students
to be on campus by 7.30. Chaperon rules
of other colleges were stricter on the whole,
especially on Sunday, according to Miss
Gardiner.

Students may go to concerts at the
Academy of Music without sitting with
their chaperons, according to a _ rule
passed by the meeting, but a motion for
going unchaperoned was defeated.

Miss Goggin stressed reporting the
violation of rules involving a fine, and

-|}announced that head proctors are to act

as proctors in the Library. “Any loss
in the halls of residence should be re-
ported, with the hour it was missed, to
Miss Adair, the business manager,” said
Miss Goggin.

Two informal, spoken reprimands
were given for motoring after dark with
men unchaperoned. A formal, written
reprimand was given to a student for
breaking chaperon rules.

THE COLL

UATE 5 ASK FACU Ltv
YENCE ON wikicines



‘Oppose Saturday Classes or
Limitation of Week-ends

The question of limitation of week-
ends was the most important business
brought up before the undergraduate
meeting last Thursday evening. After
long and vigorous discussion the meet-
ing voted to ask the faculty for a con-
ference on the subject of week-ends.

Quoting from the minutes of the Col-
lege Council, M. Foot, ’21, undergradu-
ate president, said that the question of
students leaving college over week-ends
was serious because, as a result, aca-
demic standards deteriorate, the general
health of the college suffers, students do
only four days of actual work and are
apt to miss the real college spirit, The
faculty method of regulating week-ends
is to have classes Saturday, holiday
Wednesday and scheduled quizzes on
Monday, while the undergraduate board
felt that public opinion alone should
limit week-ends.

Other Questions Settled

The annual Christmas dance was dis-
cussed and the motion to transfer the
party from Pembroke to the gymnasium
was defeated, 116-73. Other motions
passed were that the Undergraduate As-
sociation should ask for a public speak-
ing course and that funds for the Stu-
dents’ Building shall be raised as much
as possible by large contributions.

After discussion of the payment of
bills on the pike, the Association voted
that business men be asked by the comp-
troller to send in thei bills on the Ist
and 15 of May and to do no charging after
the 15. All unpaid bills will be sent to the
comptroller on July 1 and collected by him
during the summer from those who have
left college, and at the first pay day in the
fall from those who are returning,

DRAMATIC CLUB TO PRESENT PLAY
AT MAIDS’ CHRISTMAS PARTY

“Too Much Bobby,” a short play pre-
sented by the Maids’ Dramatic Club, which
was organized this fall by V. Liddell, ’22,
will be the feature of the Maids’ Christmas
party, given at 8.15 next Friday night, in
the gymnasium. In addition to the comedy
there will be Christmas carols sung by the
choir, songs and recitations by the Maids,
and a Christmas tree from the Christian
Association.

All those who have ever taught night
classes are invited to sit downstairs, accord-
ing to H. James, chairman of the Maids’
Committee, while other people will be ad-
mitted to the balcony at

UNDERGRADUATE ASSOCIATION TO

|CONSIDER WOMEN VOTERS’ LEAGUE



Mrs.

“The League of Women Voters aims
for an enlightened citizenship that will
put party issues second to welfare,” said
Mrs. Carroll Miller (Emma Guffy, °99),
speaking in chapel last Thursday morn-
ing.

“College women are saner, less in-
tense and have less hatred in political
matters. We want to establish branches
of the league at all women’s colleges.
You can learn where your state stands
in educational advantages, health condi-
tions and other systems. We want you,
above all, to be willing to speak for your
cause,” said Mrs. Miller.

Mrs. Miller, who is the organizer of
the Middle State Division of the Non-
Partisan League of Women Voters,
spoke throughout the state in the cam-
paign for the Democratic Party. She
was the first fire captain in college and
helped put out a fire that broke out in
Radnor Hall.

The Undergraduate Association will
take up the question of a League of
Women Voters, according to a decision
by the College Council at the last
meeting
