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
club. Every Spring we have a May Fete
with folk dancing and a May pole in a
setting that is as stunning as the Bryn
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
of our girls go to American colleges, and
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.

1924: B. McRae, J. Palmer, L. Ford,
E. Hale, M. Molliter, I. Mehr, R. Mur-
ray, A. Wise, A. Burgeman, E. Meneely,
Neville. |

ON FIFTH



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-
nis, J. Flexner,** R. Karns,* N. Porter,

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.

1924: E. Sullivan, A. Beaudrias, O.
Fountain, Requa, J. Gregg, R. Pearce, B.
Taylor, A. Shiras, H. Mills, S. Saunders,
B. Ling.
