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.

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.
