PALACE OF PTOLEMY IN “CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA”

BRYN MAWR, PA., TUESDAY, NOVEMBER 23, 1920



















Red Banner Flashes from Gym
as Seniors Win Hockey Finals

DEFEAT JUNIORS 3-2 ON FIRST

Fighting hard, 1921 tripped the Juniors
3-2 in the last game of the finals, Thurs-
day, putting the Red banner on the gym-
nasium the second year in succession for
hockey. The game was clean and well
fought from start to finish.

The first goal was scored by D. McBride
in the first few minutes of play, and was
followed by a period during which neither
side could gain an advantage. Then came
a long shot across the circle for a goal
by E. Finch, after a pretty dribble by A.
Nicoll. The next few minutes was marked
by the strong defense of the Senior half-
backs and°E. Donohue, Junior captain, end-
ing in a goal for '21 by C. Bickley. During
this half the play was remarkable for the
speedy dribbling of E. Cecil, Senior right
wing back, by W. Worcester at half-back,
and the clever team work between M. Tyler
and E. Finch.

The second half opened with a clean
goal for the Juniors by A. Nicoll, after a
long dribble down the field. For a time
then the ball passed from one side of the
field to the other, until, in the middle of
the period, E. Cecil shoved in the final
goal for the Seniors. M. Foot, Senior goal,
played a dependable game, making one
spectacular stop when A. Nicoll, evading
the Senior fulls, shot for goal from a clear
field. E. Finch, Junior right wing, played
a fast game, evading the backs cleverly, but
losing the ball in the circle, while M. P.
Kirkland and E. Newell were good in the
Senior defense.

Line-up—1921: E. Cecil,* K. Walker, C.
Bickley,* D. McBride,* F. Billstein, W.
Worcester, E. Cope, E. Newell, E. Taylor,
M. Kirkland, M. Foot.

1922: E. Finch,* M. Tyler, C. Baird, A.
Nicoll,* A. Orbison, M. Krech, M. Clarke,
F. Bliss, E. Donohue, R. Neel, G. Rhodes.

RICH SETTING AND VIVID
PRESENTATION OF SHAW’S

Specially Contributed by Doctor Swindler,
Instructor in Latin and Archaeology

“Caesar and Cleopatra,” the Sophomore
play presented on Friday evening, proved
to be an interpretation that met with the
approval of a large audience. The choice
wasan_ambitious one, but the play was
well cast throughout; the acting was good
and the many scene shifts were made with-
out tiresome delay. :
To begin with, the play was one which
demanded an elaborate setting, and it must
be granted that most of the scenes had
about them the phantasy of the Orient with
its rich color and languorous light. Per-
haps the best of these was the one of the
palace at Alexandria in Act III, with the
green statue of the hawk-headed god in the
background and the rich cinnamon draper-
ies in the foreground. The throne room
of Cleopatra’s palace also showed skill in
the use of patterns and colors. Here the
walls were painted with black silhouettes
of men and animals against a terra cotta
ground, and the gaily colored columns and
varied costumes formed a pleasing spec-
tacle.

The acting of Caesar, a most difficult





CHARACTERIZATION MARK
“CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA”

part, was maintained at a_ high level
throughout, and deserves great credit. He
was at all times the perfect general, loyal
to his soldiers and adored by them, for-
giving and reckless with his enemies, whim-
sical and indulgent with the “young ser-
pent,” Cleopatra. The striking likeness of
Miss Knox to the portraits of Caesar was
one of the agreeable features of the play.
“Miss Mathews was at her best in the
earlier portions of the play, especially when,
as the naive Cleopatra, she was being
taught by Caesar the art of being a
queen, but she was very alluring in
the scenes where Mark Antony was the
topic of conversation. Her beauty and
the playing alike call for commendation.

The “venerable grotesque” Ftatatetta;was
admirably handled by Miss _ Fitzgerald.
The sinister side of the palace was well
revealed in her. Her facial expression was
at times remarkable, and she carried out
the murder of Pothinus with real Oriental
slipperiness.

The acting of Rufio, the shadow of
Caesar, was spirited and in character. Miss
Strauss has already proved her ability as
a soldier, and repeated her success of May

ALUMNAE AND UNDERGRADUATES
DISCUSS STUDENT QUESTIONS

Academic questions from the student
viewpoint were discussed at the confer-
ence between the Alumnae and the Un-
dergraduate Conference Committee in
the Christian Association Library last
Monday afternoon.

The undergraduates are dissatisfied
with the system of orals because it fails
to accomplish its purpose. The New
Plan examinations are supposed to indi-
cate a reading knowledge of the lan-
guage, but can be passed by two weeks
of tutoring.

M. Tyler, ’22, outlined the cut system
and said that it was very satisfactory
except for the inaccuracy of the profes-
sors in handing in the records. The
honor system in quizzes was discussed
from the faculty and undergraduate point
of view.

A permanent lantern with rotating col-
ors was suggested by the alumnae. It
was felt that a college lantern would be
useful for publicity.

The conference included five alumnae,
among whom were Mrs. David Riesman,

SHANTUNG CLAUSE UNJUSTIFIABLE
ACCORDING TO DEBATE DECISION
That the Shantung clause in the Ver-

sailles treaty is not justifiable was decided

by the judges’ majority vote on the first
debate, held by the Debating Club last

Wednesday evening. The winning team

was F. K. Liu, Chinese student in ’22; G.
Rhodes, ’22; J. Flexner, ’'21, and their

opponents, the affirmative side, C. Bickley,

’21; V. Liddell, ’22, and O. Pell, ’22. Miss

Caroline Ware, Vassar, ’20; K. Ward, ’21,

and K. Gardner, '22, acted as judges.
Decision was difficult, according to the
judges, because both sides were arguing
from different points of view on the word

“justifiable.” The award favored the nega-

tive, because they not only presented their
arguments proving the clause unjustifiable
from China’s point of view, but in their
rebuttal speech met the argument of the
affirmative, who considered it justifiable on

the ground of temporary world expe-
diency. The affirmative kept to their defi-
nition of the word, but did not attempt

to meet the negative arguments.

Einstein’s Theory of Relativity
Explained by Noted Physicist

USHERS TURN PEOPLE FROM DOORS

“A dramatic introduction into science was
made by Einstein’s Theory of Relativity,
which appeared about a year ago, because
it Was the verification of the work of a
German by English scientists immediately
after the war,” said Dr. Joseph Ames,
head of the Physics Department of Johns
Hopkins University, Baltimore, opening his
lecture in Taylor Hall on Saturday night.
Doctor Ames, who spoke under the au-
spices of the Science Club, addressed an
audience that large that people
were turned away from the doors.

Doctor Einstein, who is a Jew, was born
in Frankfort, Germany, but. was educated
in Switzerland, where he became natural-
ized. He was employed in the Swiss
Patent Office, and later held a position in
a technical school in Ziirich. From there
he went to Prague, and then to Berlin,
where he had time to work on the deflec-
tion of light beams and on gravitation.
He was a pacifist and an upholder of the
republic, and was driven from Berlin while
lecturing. He went to Leyden, Holland,
where he was made professor of mathe-



was SO

matics and physics, and where he is still
lecturing and working.

Drew Conclusions From Postulates

“His principle of Relativity consists of
two parts, one referring to cases of uni-
form motion, the other to all other cases.
Einstein did not try to develop any theory
of natural phenomena nor obtain a
mathematical formula to describe known
facts. His method was to determine by
serious thought a number of postulates,
extremely simple ones, applying to nature
as we know it, and then to draw conclu-
sions from these by mathematical processes,
His work began in an attempt to learn
whether the length of a moving body is
the same as measured by an observer mov-
ing with it and by an observer with refer-

A Socialistic Heaven

The conviction, “class struggles will be
succeeded by the abolition of all cl Ct
tinction,” which was contained in the
Communistic Manifesto, is gradually a
ing into the uttermost corners of our col-
lege life. Interclass warfare is dying out,
and in its place we have the universal
Brotherhood of Man. Gone are the days
when the two lower classes quailed under
the*commanding gaze of the “upper crust”
and labored incessantly to carry out the
orders of the favored classes. Now high
and low are beginning to fraternize amic-
ably.. The perennial Hymns of Hate are
sinking into disfavor, and every class sings
paens of praise to every other class. The
Old Guard looks upon these innovations as
the encroachment of the grave menace of
Socialism, while the modern thinker hails
them as the forerunners of a_ perfect
Utopia, the New Jerusalem.



To Pass the Time Away

The time may come when the British
Museum or its equivalent in the distant
future -will preserve as an example of the
“Genre Art of the —— Century” one of
these very desks which now furnish
Bryn Mawr class-rooms. There one will
see portraits of strange beasts and men,
designs conventional and—not so con-
ventional—prose and poetry, which will
make ‘the observer exclaim in wonder at
the “why and wherefore.” We quote from
the collection in question:

“*Where are you going, my Bryn Mawr
maid?’

“Alas! to dreamland, sir,’ she said.

“And what will stop you, my Bryn Mawr
maid?’

“Nought you are saying, sir,’ she said.”

“Caesar and Cleopatra”

1923 is to be congratulated on its mas-
terly production of “Caesar and Cleo-
patra.” Not only did it maintain the
standard of class plays, but proved a
close rival to Varsity Dramatics.

New Plan for Degree at Harvard

Harvard has made a. great stride in
adopting the system of general examina-
tions leading to a degree, Education is no
longer considered so many courses regis-
tered, so many examinations passed, but,
rather, a matter of individual research.
The responsibility rests not on the profes-
sor, but on the student.

Art Class Discovers Aesthetes

_ Five aesthetes were brought to light
‘in the Italian painting class recently, when
the members of the class were asked to
write a paper on “Enjoyment,” and what it
meant to them. True enjoyment lay, to
quote from several papers which. showed
a sense for the aesthetic, in “a thin, grace-
ful spiral of smoke, curling from a ciga-
rette and standing out in bold relief against
a dark mahogany panel,” in “the curve of
a supporting arch,” and “in the sensation
of wanting to feel a black lacquer box,
and imagining its smoothness, rather
than in actually touching it.”

SHAW’S “CAESAR AND CLEOPATRA”
PRESENTED BY SOPHOMORES |

Day in this play. Her voice a bearing

were well suited to her role.

Probably the most finished and Shavian
piece of acting was the work of Miss Burr
as Brittanus. She was delightfully refresh-
ing in her portrayal of the good points of
the Britons, and brought down the house
with the suggestion that Cleopatra could
not properly be at the Pharos with Caesar
“without the companionship of some ma-
tron.” Her English accent was an accom-
plished achievement.

The “popinjay,” Appolodorus, was the
perfect aesthete wih his purple robes,
affected gestures and discourses on art.
The simple half-witted Ptolemy was also
adequately interpreted with Miss Wilson in



the-title-role,-and- the -character—of-Pothi-

nus, as protrayed by Miss Holt, should not
be passed over without recognition. In
fact, the minor parts were all well taken.
The “Oh woe” of the Nubian slave, and
the curses of the lazy boatman. Miss Rich-
ards, as the sentinel at the quay, did some
good acting, and Theodotus worked up real
excitement over the burning of the library
at Alexandria. The display of Roman sol-
diers, under Miss McAneny as centurian,
was one of the most striking bits of cos-
tuming in the play, and their acting was
far from amateurish. The Egyptian mob,
on the other hand, though more uneven
in merit, had some outstanding figures,
such as Belzanor and the Persian. Last
of all the porters carried out their “heavy
part” well.

The players showed the effect of careful
coaching on the part of Doctor Savage.
There were some fine dramatic moments to
which the action rose, such as the death
of Ftatatetta at the altar of the god, the
moment when, at the cry, “Hail Caesar,”
Cleopatra learns the identity of the Roman
seated on her throne, and finally the ab-
surd moment at the mole when Caesar
dives into the sea and Cleopatra is thrown
after him.

On the whole the play was not unworthy
of the class of '23. The stage manager
should especially be praised, and the com-
mittees on costumes and scenery should
not be forgotten. One might comment on
the Elizabethan dining table in the palace
scene, or the miniature pyramid in the
desert, but after all they were only parts
of a play in which Shaw was burlesquing
the Egypt of Caesar's time.

NOTES FROM ALUMNAE OFFICE

The Alumnae Office extends a cordial
welcome to all undergraduate and graduate
students, according to Margaret Blaine, ’13,
the new Executive Secretary, who hopes
that they will drop in for a word now and
then between classes. Post cards are for
sale in the Office, also a few pictures of
the college buildings, class plays, and May
Day, all of which were ordered and not
called for last year, and which are avail-
able at a very moderate figure.

All records of the Bryn Mawr Endow-
ment Campaign have been turned over to

even pillars of the






Silver lea eae in Here

“The world is threatened with a con-
flagration beside which the Great War
seems a bonfire, unless the race problem
is solved in the spirit of fair play,” said Dr.
E. C. Silcox, Silver Bay lecturer, speaking
on Wednesday evening, in Taylor Hall.
He believes the problem of race will be-

fifty years. Doctor Silcox’s lecture fol-
lowed the discussion of the race problem,
held last week under the leadership of part
of the Silver Bay delégation.

Pointing out that white races were now
dominant, politically and economically, Doc-
tor Silcox declared that this could not go
on indefinitely, although it was probably
an inevitable stage in world history. “Only
one of the darker races of the world has the
power to make its wishes felt,” he said, “and
that race is Japan.” Citing instances of
Japan’s recent political activity, Doctor Sil-
cox indicated that the Japanese are doi
more than protecting their own interests;
they are seeking to act as spokesman for
the dark races of the world. “Japan,” said
Doctor Silcox, “will bring the race prob-
lem to the fore at every opportunity until
the dark races are united under her leader-
ship with sufficient strength to strike.”

Answering the question, “What is the
solution to the race problem?” which was
asked from the floor, Doctor Silcox said,
“There is no formal solution.” He sug-
gested that adaptation and inter-breeding
of immigrating peoples might lessen race
antipathies.

DR. JOSEPH S. AMES EXPLAINS EIN-
STEIN RELATIVITY THEORY

(Continued from Page 1)
conclusions, because there is nothing but
mathematics between,” said Doctor Ames.
“Among his conclusions are: all lengths
of moving bodies appear shorter to sta-
tionary observers than to those moving with
the bodies, and all time intervals in a
moving. system appear lengthéned to the
stationary observer.”

‘Einstein Has Four Postulates
The postulates for his theory of Special
Relativity, applying only to objects in uni-
form motion, are, first, that we cannot tell



which of two objects is moving, we merely |

know that one is moving relative to the
other, and, second, that the velocity of
light, 186,000 miles a second, is constant
and can be used for measuring time. For
his General Theory of Relativity he adds
two more: one, that all our measurements
are made by the method coincidence; that
is, we tell time by observing the coinci-
dence of the hand of the clock with a point
on the scale. The other that an observer
in a falling box would be unconscious of
gravity, so that if he dropped a ball, it
would not hit the floor, but would remain
where it was dropped.

All the conclusions of the theory have
been verified as accurately as present
measurements permit. The observations of
the English astronomers at the time of the
eclipse last year, showed the amount of
curving of light rays due to the gravi-
tational effect of the sun to be in close
accordance with Einstein’s calculation. This
was measured by the displacement of the
position of the stars when the sun was
between the earth and the stars.

Einstein’s theory does not disprove New-
ton’s theory of gravitation, but agrees with
it for all cases of objects moving slowly
compared to the velocity of light. It ex-
plains the case of the planet Mercury,
which has a path, known for a long time,
not to be in accordance with Newton’s
theory.

Doctor Ames met the Science Club at
tea, in Radnor Hall, given by E. Bliss,
president of the club. After the lecture
Doctor Ames was entertained at a recep-
tion held in Rockefeller Hall.

MISS MARY GOVE SMITH URGES
INTELLIGENCE IN SOCIAL WORK

Taking “The Ideal in Social Work,” as
her subject, Mary Gove Smith, organizing
secretary of the Intercollegiate Community
Service Association, led Vespers last Sun-
day.

“The virtues are waiting, literally waiting
on intelligence,” Miss Smith quoted from
John Urskin’s essay on the moral obligation
to be intelligent for service. In many a
small village, she pointed out, good people
sigh and shake their heads at immorality,
while the intelligent go ahead and make the
library and the church places to go to rather
than run from. The Workman’s Com-
pensation Law is another example of in-
telligent acts toward social betterment.

“Give to impulse training and intelligence,
or the action becomes vicious; think things
through to an end.”

FRESHMEN IN FINALS ON FOURTH



Juniors Win Third Game 5-3

Reversing the defeat of last week, the
Junior fourth team hammered its way to
victory over the Freshmen in the third
game of the preliminaries, last Wednesday.

With A. Rupert starring at left wing
through her clever evasion of the opposing
full-backs, the Dark Blue forward line
baffled the Light Blue defense, breaking
through time and again, although it lost

- many goals through inability to shoot in

the circle. K. Peek put up a strong game
at full-back, blocking the right side of the
field and passing well to the forward line.

The Freshman forward line was fast, but
showed a lack of team work. M. Tjader
played a dependable game at center for-
ward, scoring two of the Freshman goals,
while R. Pearce, right half-back, proved
strong on the defense.

Line-up—1922: A. Woodruff, A. Gabel,
H. Stevens,** E. Brush, A. Rupert,*** E.
Brown, S. Kirkbride, E. Hall, K. Peek, M.
Speer, V. Grace.

1924: M. Smith, G. Anderson,’'H. Dil-
lingham, M. Tjader,** J. Gregg, R. Pearce,
B. Taylor,* A. Shiras, J. Benébérg; S.
Saunders, B. Ling.



Freshmen Win Deciding Game

In the last game of the Fourth team
series, 1924 emerged triumphant, crush-
ing the Juniors with a 4-0 score. The fast
Freshman team outplayed the Dark Blue
at practically every point until the second
half, when the Junior team rallied.

The Light Blue forward line was fast,
‘and showed good passing between M.
Tjader and L. Kirk. M. Tjader played
a good game throughout, getting away
quickly_with the ball and dribbling well.
In the defense H. Mills played a strong
game, blocking the speedy dribbles of A.
Rupert, Junior left wing.

The Junior team was disorganized and
showed a lack of team work, while the
back field proved utterly unable to cope
with the fast Freshmen forwards. A.
Rupert dribbled well on the wing, taking
the ball down the field again and again,
only to lose it to the powerful Freshmen
backs.

Line-up—1922: A. Woodruff, A. Gabel,
M. Wilcox, E. Brush, A. Rupert, E. Hall,
J. Gowing, S. Kirkbride, V. Grace, M.
Speer, O. Pell. Substitutes—Peek for
Grace and Grace for Pell.

1924: J. Gregg, M. G. Anderson, M.
Tjader, L. Kirk, M. Smith, R. Pearce, B.
Taylor, S. Saunders, H. Mills, J. Bensberg,
B. Ling.

Freshmen a Leap Ahead on Fifth

Battering the Dark Blue defense with its
fast forward line, the Freshmen rolled up
a 5-2 victory on Fifth, last Thursday. The
first game of the preliminaries was a tie.

The Freshman team, with E, Sullivan,
left wing, as individual star with three
goals to her credit, outplayed the Juniors at
every point, and were able to score almost
at will. F. Liu, Junior right wing, played
a fast game, scoring the two goals for her
team, while K. Peek put up a strong game
at full-back.

Line-up—1922: F. K. Liu,** I. Coleman,
M. Wilcox, A. Woodruff, E. Pharo, E.
Healea, J. Gowing, D. Ferguson, K. Peek,
C. Bennett, A. Gabell.

1924: E. Requa,* M. Dunham,* O.

THE



IN FIRST GAME OF FINALS

Defeats the Light Biue 6-1

Trouncing the Freshmen 6-1, last Thurs-
day, '21 took the lead in the finals on
Third team. The play was messy through-
out the game, and had no_ outstanding
feature. .

The Red forward line was speedy, break-
ing through the Freshman defense prac-
tically at will. M. Smith, ’21, played a good

‘game at right inside, dribbling and passing

well in the circle, where M. Archbald
proved clever at shooting, scoring three of
the Senior goals.

The Freshman team was disorganized and
lacked team work. B. McRae and V.
Moliter dribbled speedily on the wings, but
were effectively blocked by the dependable
playing of the Senior full-backs, M. S.
Goggin and E. Godwin, who played well

LIGHT BLUE TROUNCES RED TEAM
IN FINALS ON SIXTH



Counts One Point Towards All-Around
Athletic Championship

In a fast and furious game, last Friday,
the Freshman Sixth team crashed through
to victory over the Seniors in the last game
of the finals, with a 3-1 score.

The Freshman forward line was fast,
tearing through the Red defense time and
again, but failed to score many goals from
wild shooting. H. Beaudrias, at center for-
ward, proved the strength of her team,
scoring two out of the total three goals,
while B. Litchfield, at left wing, was speedy
and dribbled well, but played out of place.

With M. Fette and |G. Lubin as indi-
vidual stars, the Senior defense proved
itself the strongest part of the Red team,
putting up a stiff fight in the circle. The
forward line was slow and showed a lack
of team work.

Line-up—1921: G. Trotter, T. Williams,
E. Matteson, F. Hollingsworth,* F. Kniffen,
M. Fette, F. Howard, M. Donaldson, G.
Lubin, M. Harris, E. Shoemaker.

1924: D. Litchfield, E. Briggs, H.
Beaudrias,** M. Fenley, R. Tubby, K. Van
Bibber, B. Constant, M. Fitzgerald, I.
Armstrong, E. Estes, K. Kalbfleisch, team.*
Substitute—Prokosch for Van Bibber.



Red 5th Bows to Green in 2nd Game

Making the score even with one game
apiece, the Sophomore Fifth beat its way
to victory through a stubborn Red oppo-
sition, last Saturday morning, with a 4-3
score.

M.: Prewitt, ’23, center forward, starred
in the scrappy fighting in the circle, making
the three goals for her team, G. Lubin
was a strong stop for the Seniors at full-
back, while B. Kellogg’s dribbling at right
wing was fast. Neither team, however,
showed head work throughout the game.

Line-up—1921: B. Kellogg, I. Maginnis,
J. Flexner, F. Kniffen, G. Trotter, E.
Matteson, F. Howard, M. Fette, G. Lubin,
L. Reinhardt, A. Weston.

Thomas and members of the Endowment
Committee at a reception in Rockeféller
Hall, on the*evening of December 22nd.

Mary Cushing Howard, ex-'21, who left
Bryn Mawr after her Freshman year, is
studying for the degree of Bachelor of
Science at Johns Hopkins University, Bal-
timore, where she received twenty-three
hours’ credit for music taken at Peabody
Conservatory, Baltimore.

‘In the ‘maids’ night classes this week,
English was taught ‘by K. Ward, '21, and
current events by C. Garrison, ’21.

Interviews with professors, whose office
hours are inconvenient, can be arranged
by special appointment with Dean Smith.

Elizabeth Cope has been elected captain
of ’21’s water polo team. Apparatus cap-
tain is E. Cecil, who has been captain for
three years, and who won the individual
championship last year.

211 S. 17TH St. “Qe PHILA

EFORE 1894 every chemist thought he knew what air is. “A
mechanical mixture of moisture, nitrogen and oxygen, with
traces of hydrogen and carbon dioxide,’”’ he would

There was so much oxygen and nitrogen in a given sample that he
simply determined the amount of oxygen present and assumed the
rest to be nitrogen.

One great English chemist, Lord Rayleigh, found that the nitro-
gen obtained from the air was never so pure as that obtained from
some compound like ammonia. What was the “impurity”? In
co-operation with another prominent chemist, Sir William Ramsay, -
it was discovered in an entirely new gas—‘‘argon.” Later came the
discovery of other rare gases in the atmosphere. The air we breathe
contains about a dozen gases and gaseous compounds.

This study of the air is an example of research in pure science.
Rayleigh and Ramsay had no — end in view—merely the dis-
covery of new facts.

A few years ago the Research Laboratories of the General Electric
Company began to study the destruction of filaments in exhausted
lamps in order to ascertain how this happened. It was a purely
scientific undertaking. It was found that the filament evaporated
—boiled away, like so much water.

Pressure will check boiling or evaporation. If the pressure within
a boiler is very high, it will take more heat than ordinarily to boil the
water. Would a gas under pressure prevent filaments from boiling
away? If so, what gas? It must be a gas that will not combine
chemically with the filament. The filament would burn in oxygen;
hydrogen would conduct the heat away too rapidly. Nitrogen is a
useful gas in this case. It does form a few compounds, however.

Better still is argon. It forms no compounds at all.

Thus the modern, efficient, gas-filled lamp appeared, and so argon,
which seemed the most useless gas in the world, found a practical
application.

Discover new facts, and their practical application will take care
of itself.

And the discovery of new facts is the primary purpose of the
Research Laboratories of the General Electric Company.

Sometimes years must elapse before the practical application of a
discovery becomes apparent, as in the case of argon; sometimes a
practical application follows from the mere answering of a ‘‘theoret-
ical’’ question, as in the case of a gas-filled lamp. But no substantial
progress can be made unless research is conducted for the purpose of
discovering new facts.

HARVARD ADOPTS GENERAL
EXAMINATION SYSTEM

A dozen years ago the pure elective sys-
tem prevailed in Harvard College. The
student had virtually complete freedom in
his choice of courses. The central feature
of instruction was the lecture, and the de-
‘gree was obtained by piling up sixteen
credits, each credit obtained by passing a
course (and perhaps forgetting it at once).

A few years later one division, that
of History, Government and Economics,
adopted the requirement that every man
who concentrated in History, Government
or Economics, must take a general exami-
nation in the whole field of his concentra-
tion at the end of his Senior year. This
involved a board of tutors to advise the
men on their preparation for these general
examinations, and to act as counsellors or
perceptors, The change was fundamental.

In 1919, the system was authorized
by the faculty for all departments which
desired to adopt it, and in fact it has been
adopted by all the departments except those
of Mathematics and Natural Science. Be-
ginning with the class of 1922, therefore,
every man in college, save in those sub-
jects, will have to take a general examina-
tion before he can gradute.

This examination does not simply touch
on the courses which the individual stu-
dent happens to have taken; it may touch
also on the gaps between those courses.
For example, if a man’s field of concen-
tration is English Literature, and he is
given a question on Doctor Johnson, it is
no excuse to say that he never had a course
which included Dr. Johnson; that he only
took courses on Shakespeare and Dickens
and the Romantic Poets and Nineteenth
Century Literature. He is supposed to fill
in the gaps for himself, and to use his
choice of courses as a means of obtaining
mastery of his field.

“The aim,” as President Lowell has said,
“is to fasten his attention on the subject
as a whole, rather than on isolated frag-
ments of it; to lead him to co-ordinate the
information he obtains, whether from his
courses or elsewhere; to master the sub-
ject and make it his own; to impress on
him the responsibility for his own educa-
tion, for real value belongs only to self-
education, acquired by personal effort.
Teachers can help a man to obtain it, but
cannot stuff it into him ready made.”

There has been a general feeling at
Harvard that the system of instruction
should be altered so as to test what the
student has become rather than merely
what he has been through, and also so as
to bring the faculty and students closer
together; to shift the emphasis from the
lecture to the conference, from the test of
memory to the test of thought. Hence
this deliberate, cautious progress toward
a more satisfactory method of examina-
tion, and toward a tutorial system

adapted to American conditions



Miss E. Phillips Sank a ‘Edinburgh,
one of the first fifty women to receive a
B.A. at Oxford University, has just ar-|
rived at Radcliffe for a year’s graduate
work in botany, on a scholarship granted
her by the International Relations Com-
mittee of the Association of Collegiate
Alumnae, according to the Boston Globe
for November 12th.

After a year’s study at Edinburgh Uni-
versity, where she took class medals in
chemistry and botany, Miss Smith took a
three-year scientific course at Oxford, pass-

ing her examination for an Honors De-

gree last June, though not receiving her
B.A. until October, when the university
decided to grant degrees to women.

At Oxford Miss Smith was a pupil of
Dr. A. H. Church, a speculative biologist.
She is particularly interested in the study
of plants causing skin disease, and in the
botanical aspects of hay fever. She has
published two papers in the Journal of
Botany for 1920. As a writer she has had
short stories in a number of English maga-
zines, and is planning to contribute some
letters on Harvard and Radcliffe to the
Oxford Magazine.



MR. SAM HIGGINBOTTOM TELLS OF
WORK WITH LEPERS IN INDIA

Conducting the Thanksgiving Service in
the chapel last Sunday evening, Mr. Sam
Higginbottom, of Allahabad, India, de-
scribed the growth of the leper settlement,
of which he has charge, “his avocation”
from his work as principal at the Allahabad
Agricultural Institute.

Mr, Higginbottom related how he was
first shown the leper settlement at Christ-
mas, in 1905, a ramshackle, tumbledown
group of mud huts which he was to direct,
with an allowance of one dollar a month
for each leper. By introducing garden-
ing along successful modern lines, as an
occupation for the restless and quarrel-
some inmates, he was able to increase
the number of resident lepers from five
per cent. to ninety-five per cent. A fine
hospital, a new church and two homes,
one for boys and one for girls, are
among the new buildings that have been
built. If children whose parents have been
afflicted with the disease are taken from
them when a few months old, they may
often be saved. .

“I doubt if there is anything which im-
presses the Mohammedans and Brahmins
so much as this Christian work,” said Mr.
Higginbottom, speaking of the position of
the leper, an outcast from society. Hitherto
he has been stoned on every side, and no
mercy shown him.

Piles Up 7-2 Score
In a scrappy game, last Saturday, Var-

sity. defeated the Haddonfield Cricket Club| ¢

7-2, The play was uneventful throughout

Jumping into the lead with a goal by
A. Nicoll, Varsity piled up two more tallies
before Haddonfield rallied, and was able
to penetrate the Brown defense for a tally,
bringing the score at the end of the first
half to 3-1. During this period Miss
Dingler, at center forward, and Mrs. Bry-
son, left wing, were the strength of the}
Haddonfield team, while A. Nicoll and M.

Faries developed -some clever team work:

for Bryn Mawr.

The second half opened with a goal for
Bryn Mawr, by E. Cecil, after clever evad-
ing by A. Nicoll and M. Faries, followed
in quick succession by goals by A. Nicoll
and V. Brokaw. Two minutes before the
end Haddonfield’s second goal was scored
by Mrs. Bryson, after a sharp scrimmage
in the circle. M. Adams, ’23, was speedy
on right wing, proving clever at evading
the full-backs, but losing the ball in the
circle.

MERION CHLOROPLASTS ORGANIZE

The Association of Chloroplasts, a rival
organization to the famous Sons of Guz,

purpose, as stated in the constitution, of
“providing suitable Protoplasm to a hungry
community at expense of said community.”

Membership is limited to twenty-five, all
of whom must live in Merion. Guests
who are introduced by a member may come
to a “eat meeting,” provided they register
in the guest book, which is kept by the
guard cell, The duty of bringing the Pro-
toplasm to cell wall from the Food Vacu-
oles every night, and consigning the refuse

President Thomas Praises Sophomore
Production of Caesar and{Cleopatra

Speaking of 1923’s production of Bern-
ard Shaw’s “Caesar and Cleopatra” in
chapel on Monday morning, President
Thomas said in part:

“It may be because I have been away
fifteen months and have forgotten how
well you do things, but it seemed to me
that the Sophomore play was superexcel-
lent. It was astonishing how well the
parts were taken. I had only seen it acted
once before—by Forbes Robertson and
Maxine Elliot. In enunciation the
Sophomore who took the part of Caesar
was inferior to Forbes Robertson, but you
know that Forbes Robertson was taught
to enunciate by the great teachers who
taught Mr. King, but I thought that
Caesar was acted in a more convincing
manner, The character of Caesar was
beautifully portrayed. It was very diffi-
cult to act Caesar, but he knows what is
happening to him and looks at himself
beguiled by Cleopatra with a kind of
amused and tender scorn. When the
Sophomores came to me, I said, ‘Who
is going to be Caesar? I thought it im-
possible to find a Sophomore Caesar.
They said, ‘We think we have a Caesar,’
and a splendid Caesar they had.

“Cleopatra was not as beautiful as
Maxine Elliot, who is one of the most
beautiful women of this generation, but
she is not a great actress. Your Cleo-
patra was a better actress. It is a very
difficult part to play, but, of course, not
quite so difficult as Caesar. She made us
realize the unreasonableness, the savage-
ness, the cruelty and childishness and yet
the imperishable charm. The Cleopatra
we saw on the stage on Friday night
was a much younger woman than Shake-
speare’s Cleopatra, but as it was acted
we were made to understand how she
could develop into Shakespeare’s Cleo-



patra.
