Christmas music and decorations are
jbeing planned for the chapel on De-
tcember 19, when Dean Charles Reynolds
rown, of Yale Divinity School, will lead

‘Buck,
' Dean Brown has been at Bryn Mawr
‘every year since 1916. “Cap and Gown,”

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
cents.

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
