. FRESHMAN SHOW REVEALS
VARIED TALENT “IN 1925]

Scarlet atoo of Freshmen Joins
Class Menageries *



“Excellent staging, novel _ stunts and
choruses, and many witty lines won for
1925’s: Mirrors of Yarrow Road, given to
1924 last Saturday evening, an honorable
place among Freshman shows. ‘The first
act showed a consistently high quality of
construction, staging and acting, and set an
almost professional standard which the two
later acts searcely maintained. Much. in-
dividual talent was discovered, such as
E. Macy’s and E. Hinkley’s dancing, E.
Grayson’s and’ L. Bulley’s comedy, and~H.
Cornish’s singing. ‘The curtain song, the

Dunn.

Dorami (1924), who had, been captured
by the pirates in her infancy, and Bart-
lemy (1925), the son of the pirate , chief,

Big Ben (1923), were igtroduced in the]

spirited first scene, and sang together “Oh,
Dorami.”

The scenes between them, though arti-
ficial, were in keeping with the operetta
tradition. The little pirate boy and girl,
who appeared as Bartlemy was reminding
Dorami of their life together on the isle,’
were childlike and charming. Big Ben was
likewise a true-to-type pirate chief, and had
no difficulty in persuading his followers to
accompany him even over .the Sea of
Matriculasia to the Egelloc. where his.son
Bartlemy might “hitch his wagon to the
star of Knowledge,. and learn to be a

Dances’ Enthusiastically Applauded

The dance of the Slaves and of the
Jewels both won enthusiastic applause ; the
latter was original and graceful, dancing
of a kind ngt often attempted on the col-

lege stage. The play of lights on the vari- |

colored, bejewelled costumes was particu-
larly lovely. The finale to the act showed
Dorami and “Bartlemy standing alone look-

Bonny Boat” was sung if the distance»

With act two; romance seemed to have
given way to grim reality, for instead ofa
pirate cave with moonlit water, the scene
showed the customs office of Egelloc, bare
walls, desks, and bails of goods. 'The cus-
toms official, acted by L. Bulley, proved the
center of the scene’s gaiety, and got a
laugh with nearly every line whether he
dictated to Miss Effie Shiccy, played bridge
with the chorus of stenographers, or inter-
viewed, in an official capacity, Big Ben and
his pirates. ;

The Pajama Chorus-at’the beginning of
act three, found an enthusiastic audience,
as they sleepily danced’ setting up-exercises
to Miss Cornish’s singing of the “Aggra-
vatin’ Blues.” Adolph, the Major Domo

ful French-English, introduced the choruses
and features for the entertainment of-the
Governor’s pirate guests; two very adept
acrobats even made exits and entrances
in involved and startling ways; Taki
Fugita, singing a Japanese song, was en-
thusiastically encored.

The presentation of the Class Animal,
which must be the grand finale of every
Freshman show, came after the Governor

his long lost daughter, and had consented
to her engagement to Bartlemy. “As a
reward for your first year in Egelloc and
your winning of the lovely Dorami” the
Governor ordered-the doors at the rear of
the stage to be thrown wide and intro-

DARK BLUE BANNER FLYS ON
GYMNASIUM FOR SECOND TIME

Seniors Sweep Through Sophomore
Defence in Water-Polo Victory



The stubborn: resistance of every. mem-

ber of the Sophomore first was unable to

check 1922 in the deciding game of the
finals last Thursday evening’ The: Senior
team, organized around the dashing team-
work of E. Anderson and A. Nicoll, sys-
tematically scored seven goals to
opponents’ one.

Though stopped at every point by the
"Dark Blue: fulls, the Sophomore forwards,
especially M. Buchanan, tried to keep up
an offensive game through both halves.
They were ably supported by J. Wise, ’24,
at center half, but th their fighting
never let up, they were from the beginning

"| outclassed .in quick accurate shooting, team

work and speed by the Senior team. At
the énd of the second half, after several
sensational dribbles, which were blocked
by E. Anderson, ’22, M. Buchanan, '24,
succeeded in throwing a clean goal, the
only score for her side.

Nineteen twerity*two’s strength was ob-
viously the result. of their excellent dis-
cipline, accuracy and speed. Passing as
scientifically as the members of a basket
ball team, keeping uncovered, swiftly re-

covering the ball when lost, and above all

fighting with furious vigor, they showed
themselves unmistakably superior to the

Sophomogse team. E. Anderson repeatedly:
H. | overtook J. Wise, ’24, or M. 'Fairies, '24,

when they were dribbling with the ball,
and took it from them, throwing it to A.

to receive it and try for a goal. E.

ing of Professors Scott, Huff and Fenwick,
to consult with the Nominating Committee,

meeting held February -10, 1921.

For the past fourteen months the Nomi-
nating Committee has considered many.
possible carfllidates in its effort to. find the
best president for the College. Very many
names were suggested for consideration
by the alumnae of the College and by
prominent men and women having no other
connection with the College than their in-
terest in education and in Bryn Mawr

i The President-Elect

President Thomas resigns at the end of.
this year as president.of Bryn Mawr after
a- career in which tremendous interest in
women’s edtication and determination, that
“equal standards for men and women be
enforced are the dominant notes. She has
raised high the staf@ards of women’s
rights in education, and she has made Bryn
-Mawr the leader in all. matters bearing on
this question.

- To take her place the Board of Direciers
has ‘elected a graduate of the College,
steeped in the honorable traditions for
which Bryn Mawr stands. Dr. Marian
Park has worked under President Thomas
as a student and with her as a dean. She
has had active experience in three other
-colleges and she has been successful at
every turn. +

Bryn Mawr may well feel proud that
one of her own daughters has been selected
to carry on the great. work begun by Miss
Thomas.



Fair Auspices nes

The Christian Association Conference
has come to bé an annual event at Bryn
‘Mawr, a fact which proves how well it
has fulfilled its function in the past. This
year’s leaders are in close contact with
modern thought, practical and religious,
and are in a position to understand and
meet Bryn Mawr’s particular needs and
problems. The Conference opens on Fri-
day under most favorable auspicese

Instinct >

Tea is now being served to the Fitts in
Taylor basement, every day except Satur-
day and Sunday. The faculty, it seems,
fall in with the general opinion that drink-
ifig tea is both pleasant and sociable. But
there is something more in it than, that, for
in the words of one of their number, “It
is so nice to be able to get away some-
where, where there aren’t any. students.”

Our forefathers used to seek refugg
from daily annoyance in the woods, the
‘faculty have taken to Taylor basement.

An Opportunity

Since the war people have again turned
‘their attention to the possibilities of travel-
ling in Europe, but many have found the
tates for passage charged by the steamship
companies so high that they have been un-
__able more than idly to consider the idea.

Now there is an unsual opportunity open
for women and girls to cross at a low
rate. Mrs. Russell has taken, in the third-
class of the Aquitania, a section which
will accommodate sixty people at the rate
of $95 to Southampton, or $105 to Cher-
“bourg. ~The third-class on the Aquitania
is not the steerage. Meals,are
ee. passengers and plenty of
deck space is provided.. Mrs. Russell’s

Impending Doom ’

A wax figure of M. Poincare was bought
for more than 10,000Wkarks at a recent sale
.of wax work’ in Berlin, “There can be no
uncertainty,” says the New ‘York Times,
“as to why a-German- buyer—wants—a wax
figure of Poincare. He is going to use it
as material in that ancient form of witch-
craft known as homeopathic magic. Stick
a pin in the hip of the waxen image, and
the French premier will forthwith suffer
from sciatica. Lay it down before the fire,
and as it slowly melts away, so will Poin-
care shrivel to the final’ stage of death or
resignation.” For the next few weeks
everyone will undoubtedly be. deeply con-
cerned about the health of the French
premier. .

Mr. ‘Bryan and Evolution

Students, attention! This is our con-
cern. We are the victims. Revealed. at last
are the insidious falsehoods upon which
we fave been nourished. ‘With no faltering
finger Mr. William Jennings: Bryan has

pointed to the error of our thought. He
has. boldly exposed. the truth about
Darwinism !

Mr. Bryan writes on~ “God “ Evolu-
tion” in the New York Sunday Times. He
says, “Darwinism means ruin to the world
and chaos to society.” Then, marshalling
his disproof into four crushing paragraphs,
he does away with that frightful menace
forever. In the first place, the theory of
evolution is only a guess—‘“it is called a
hypothesis, but that is merely a scientific
synonym * for the old-fashioned word
‘guess’; it has not one syllable in the Bible
to support it”; furthermore, “neither Dar-
win nor his successors have .been able to
find a fact in the universe to support theit
hypothesis,” and finally, “Darwinism is not
only without foundation, but it compels its
believers to resort to explanations that are
more absurd than anything found in the
‘Arabian Nights.’ ”

As the victims of. thisgreaterror,_we.
were, of course, unaware of all this, That
numbers of us, especially innocent Fresh-
men, should’ toi? for semesters~over what
is merely a hypothesis, should perhaps fail
to get our merits on accoupt of’ an old-.
fashioned guess, is an Thjustice of the
rankest sort. It #s true, now we come tc
think about it, that there is not a syllable
in the Bible that -supports Darwinism, at
least not in the parts that we have read
We did think there was something in
minor biology that was called evidence of

our professor made a mistake. He has
never been. secretary of state, and so prob-
ably wouldn’t know.

~ Although in perfect accord with Mr.
Bryan’s reasoning so far, we must dis-
agree with him at one point. Darwinism
is a “hypothesis directly and irreconcilably
antagonistic to the Bible” and. should,
therefore, not “be ‘taught in the public
schools. We feel, -however, that a false-
hood suppressed becomes at once imbued
with so irresistible an attraction that it
exerts its baneful influence more harm-
fully than Before. But if Mr. Bryan will
continue his crusade inthe open, the truth
will eventually prevail. Misguided scientists
will come to see the logic of his objections,
and irresponsible teachers no longer con-
tinue “to deal with other peoples’ children
as if they were little monkeys.”



To the Editor of Tue Cottece News:

In a recent issue of the News there ap-
peared an editorial regretting that balance

The Art Department and the Art, Club
are unobtrusively flourishing. Yet the
News has devoted but four lines to these
since last. October... We can appreciate
the fact that reporters occasionally neglect
lectures and teas, but it is unpardonable
that they have even failed to” appoint. a
reporter for the Art Club, Dr. Carpenter’s
talk on “Royal Roads to Beauty” and that
of Mrs. Wm. Roy Smith on “L’éxtreme

no mention. Moreover the visit of so dis-
tinguished an authority on art as Professor+
Josef Strzyjowski, of the University ® of
Vienna, to the College and the lecture that
he gave in town which some members of
the Club attended were completely passed,
over by the News.

We wish, not to beg for publicity, but
merely to appeal to that highly developed
sense. of. balance so pertinently referred to.
Can it not perceive that a paper like the
News, which purports t6 be for all the
College, is of all the College? ~

To the. Editor of THE CoLLece Ngws:

At present there is a splendid oppor-
tunity open for girls interested in “social
service work of any description. Again
Bryn Mawr students are being offered a
chance to spend the Easter vacation at
the settlements of New York, Philadel-
phia, or Boston. I have only had one day
of experience at the College settlement,
but I did so--enjoy it. If anyone is-inter-
ested in children it is a great chance to
work with them, Classes are for-all-ages,

classes for grown girls and_ boys.

There was one thing which struck me as
typical of the settlement and what it means
to the people of the community, the circu-
lating picture gallery. They were allowed

the pftlege’ of ‘taking out pictures for two
weeks the same manner that. books are
taken. It was wonderful, but rather

pathetic how they valued those pictures.
Just one last and important fact about
the vacation work. It is not only a chance
to be helpful, but a chance for experience
and a really enjoyable time.

Buckled Galoshes Replace Ring as
Symbol of Engagement

(From Wellesley College News)

No longer do the unbuckled galoshes
which -are- seen flapping ‘about campus
merely represent an economy of time in
going between classrooms and dormitories.
That ultilitarian explanation must be dis-
carded in favor of the one originating in
coeducational universities, which declares
unloosed galoshes an indication that the
affections are in a similar state. The
ring, symbol .of. subjection, is out of date. .

It has been-suggested-that-Douglas-‘Fair-
banks set the fashion with his costume in
the screen version of “The Three Mus-
keteers.” But good authority attributes
the origin of the fad to one’cas@at North-
western University, where a fiancé’ im-
plored his girl please to cover “her ankles
from public view. Since then open ga-
loshes have marked the footloose and
fancy-free condition of the- owner.

“Nevertheless,” remarks the New York
Tribune, “it may be predicted that the new
symbolism will pass. As from times of
antiquity, the young girl will, of course,
continue to place her main reliance, when
she would summon followers, neither on
rings nor on buckles, but’on that seasoned
member, the come-hither eye.”

MISS CARRIE YOUNG DESCRIBES
Y. W. C. A. WORK IN NEAR EAST

The -work of the Y. W. C. A. and the

conditions, of the Near East last spring, |"

were described by Miss Carrie Young. at
an address Wednesday evening, under the
auspices of the Christian Association.
“The workers. went over to see what
could be done for the girls in Turkey,” she
said. “Our principle work was in Con-
stantinople, where there were from 50
to a 100,000 refugees. We supplied a home
for girls recovered from the Turks, pro-
viding not only. physical relief, but also
education and recreation. Clubs, courses,
such as dressmaking and nursing, and re-
lief for factory girls were organized by
the Y. W. C.. A.” Miss Young was in Asia
Minor with Dorothea Chambers, ’19.
Describing the conditions of the country,
Miss Young said that when she first went
over the government at Constantinople was
in the hands of the allies. Everything was
at a standstill, since the Turks were waiting
for the terms of the treaty to see how
much land would be left to them. In the
interval of two weeks a Nationalist party
established their centre at Angora, and
without forming any connection with Con-
stantinople controlled the country.

the Sophomores, O. Fountain was always
in the van of the attack.

GEOLOGISTS TELL DIRECTION OF
WIND A BILLION YEARS AGO
Speaking on geology at the Science Club
Tea last Thursday, Professor Bascom de-
fined the purposes and problems of géology
and explained the field with special refer-
ence to the formations around Bryn Mawr.

“Geologists have three main problems,” she

said, “to determine the operation of the
forces of the air and water upon the sur-
face of the earth, te determine the con-
dition of the interior of the earth, and to
trace the records of past ages written in
the rocks. These records,” said Professor
Bascom, “are very complete in some cases.
One specimen tells the direction in which
the wind blew during a rain. storm of
over a billion and a half years ago.”
Rocks she divided into aqueous, igneus
“There are no
aqueous-_.rocks immediately. about. Bryn
Bryn Mawr. Igneus rocks like those in
Black Rock ‘quarry and at Mt. Joy show
the action of heat. Metamorphosed rocks
are those like the rocks of the cliffs oppo-
site Black Rock quarry, which have un-
dergone molecular changes. The buildings
on the Bryn Mawr campus are built of a
rock pf this sort, which was originally a

‘I sandy ‘clay. The stratification’, “amd the

minute crystals in the rock are easily
discernible.” r .

Specimen rocks and pictures were shown
by Miss Bascom to illustrate her talk.

. DECISION OF THE COURT OF Common PLEAs oF MonTGOMERY CounTY, PENNSYLVANIA, FEBRUARY

This case has been much discyssed
and it is. said ‘that the opinion handed
down by the judges treats with unusiial
fullness the rights vested in private edu-
cational foundafions not receiving state
aid. - It is therefore thought that the con-
cluding pages of the ded¢ision dealing
with the main issues involved will bé of
interest* to the subscribers- of the News.
The findings given‘ below: are taken
verbatim from. the last fifteen pages of
the decision which appear under the
heading “Discussion.” The case for the
College was argued by Mr. Nicholas H.

“ Larzelere, of Norristown, who has acted

as: Norristown counsel for Bryn Mawr
College for many years, and by Mr.
Thomas Raeburn White, of Philadelphia,
a trustee and director of the College.

~ Discussion

“Following our usual practice, we havé
made’ comprehensive general findings of

.fact so that, in case of review, the deci-

¢

sion may be complete and, in itself, em-
brace all that may be reguired. Such
findings are, furthermore, supplemented
and, to a large extent repeated, by an-
sWered requests by relator and respond-
ents for such. An examination of all
discloses no serious disagreement . be-
tween the parties concerning the major
facts of the case, which of course, elimi-
nates necessity in this discussion of
‘either making extended reference to

~ them or reconciling them with the evi-

dence. Thegreal difficulty in this case
is, therefore, first to seek to determine
from the conflict of authority just what
is the law and then to apply it to the
facts as they have been thus found.
“The question of jurisdiction, being
always a preliminary one, to be deter-
mined before a case is considered on its

- merits, and its lack having been raised

against the relator by the answer and
urged by the respondents ever since,
‘must first engage our attention,”

***Citation of various cases more or
less similar omitted.***

“Without further discussion of this in-
teresting question,’ arising out of case
cited, “we, therefore, hold with. the
weight of authority that as stated in
18. R. C. L. 168, ‘where a student has
been wrongfully expelled from a private
iftcorporated institution of learning,
mandamus will not lie to compel the
corporation to reinstate him;’ and that
we are, in c@nséquefce, without power
to‘issue the writ. cs

“Notwithstanding this conclusion we
shall; however, for the reason set forth
at the very beginning of this discussion,
consider briefly the question in the case
which goes to its actual merits. Was the

_ relator wrongfully expelled?

“And, before discussing it, we note
that the reasonableness of the regulation
that the college reserved the right to ex-
clude at any time students whose con-
duct or academic standing it regarded
as undesirable is not before us~ because
such reasonableness was conceded of
record by the relator. Also, that it is
settled law that the writ can be issued
only to enforce the performance of a
ministerial duty and not to control the
discretion of the respondents. It can
compel the respondents to act, but it
‘cannot interfere with their action, or
compel them how to act.~ Furthermore,
the writ never issues in a doubtful case.
Mandamus goes out only where there is
a clear legal right in the relator and a
corresponding duty upon the defendant:
Com. v. Fitler, 136 Pa. 129; Com. ex. rel.,
appel., v. Kessler, 22 Pa. 2.

“And its consideration must be ap-
roached in light of the circumstances
that Bryn Mawr College is not only
maintained by a private corporation, but
has in residence’ upwards of 400 stu-
dents. The witness, the documentary
evidence, the whole trial suggested that

its atmosphere ‘is high class, its moral
standards are segue: its ‘purpose’ is as
much to build charactet as to improve
the mind. Protection of its undergradu-
ates against’ contaminating association
or influence is but one of the many ways
to accomplish this purpose. It: was, no
doubt, in furtherance of this purpose,
that the regulation. ir question ‘was
promulgated.. Students could«gbe ex-
cluded not when their conduct was un-
desirable, but when ‘it regarded’ such
undesirable. Neither. expressly, nor by
reasonable implication, was the student
to be entitled to have charges preferred
with an opportunity to answer them, or
to a, hearing. ae

“Did anything oécur in this case by
which it was made exceptional. inthis
respect? We think not. The positive
oral. testimony and the documentary evi-
dence both establish that, at no time, in
the dean’s off@ce or elsewhere, were any
charges .ever preferred against the re-
lator. She says so herself and co-
‘plains only that, when under suspicion,
the circumstances of the calls upon her
for an explanation raised an inference,
or created an innuendo, that ‘was, equiv-
alent to preferring charges. against: her.”
An inference must be based upon a fact
and not upon its denial. Nor can we
subscribe to the conclusion drawn by
relator. It may well be that more tact
or diplomacy might ‘have been -used
under the circumstances and that it was
ill-advised publicity to have called her
out of class for the third interview, but
the purpose of both calls was proper.
They showed consideration for her. The
college had at the time absolute right
to exclude her if it regarded her con-
duct as undesirable and she cannot be
heard to complain that, when suspected
of improper conduct, she was afforded
by the dean at least two opportunities
for explanation. .

“Moreover, those present at the in-
terviews were properly there. -Other
than the officials of the college, there
were only Miss Kennard, the head proc-
tor of the hall; Miss Foote, the presi-
dent of the Undergraduates’, Association,
and._Miss..Cadot,. the. senior who. had
hidden in Miss. Smith’s room. Their
presence was necessary if the investiga-
tion was to be fair and complete. The
publicity * which the matter afterwards
obtained is, of course, to be regretted
but,. it may be, that the five letters of
March 30th and 3lst, which the relator
wrote to her fellow students, may have
been a helpful factor in this connection.
We.can find nothing in these interviews,
or any of their circumstances, which
savored of preferring charges against
her, or bound the college, as a matter of
law, to give the relator a hearing be-
fore subsequent disciplinary action was
taken. : ‘

“It must not be lost sight of that
President Thomas testified that her final
decision was based-on a great-many rea-
sons of which the thefts in Pembroke
were only one and not at all decisive.
Her-letter“to* Mrs, Barker of April 2nd
and the statement enclosed with it, when
carefully read, indicate such to have been
the case. As to all these, except the mat-
ters involved in the interviews in the
dean’s office, it is not contended that, as
a matter of legal right, the relator was
entitled to be heard. It is not denied
that, as to them, the president’s power
was absolute. We fear that, in light of
all the testimony, there is a disposition
on the part of the relator td place too
much stress upon the relative - im-
portance in the case of the subjects
which were discussed at .those inter-
views and to draw a distinction as to
them which is not justified.

“But let us assume, for the moment,
that as it is stated in relator’s brief, ‘the





action of the dean in interrogating the

} institution

oe

child in the presence, of a stenographer
and student witness was equivalent to
preferring charges against her and ipso
facto "bound the college to” give her a
fair hearing before any disciplindry ac-
tion *was taken against ‘her.’

“It cannot be reasonably or’ success-
fully urged, especially in the absence of

any prescribed method of , hearing, or

form of procedure, that such must be
conducted with all the dignity and’ form
incident to a trial in court. The-latter
are largely prescribed by the -constitu-
tion, the statutes and’ the common law.
The authorities of a great educational
like the defendant college
might find much of their time occupied
by. the trial of such cases if, every time
a__student—were—suspected= of improper
conduct, hé was called upon for an ex-
planation and the fact became. noised
abroad, he would, ipso facto, be entitled
as a matter of absolute right, to a formal
hearing. The only prudent thing for it
to do would be to act without first com-
municating with him at all.

“But, after all,-as far as the matters:

investigated at..the interviews—in—the
dean’s office are concerned, did not the
relator have a fair hearing in this case
both before.and after disciplinary action
was taken against her?

“On the morning of March 23rd she
enjoyed three separate opportunities for
explanation, of which two were afforded
by the respondents. At the first, she

knew that Miss Cadot, who was present, |:

had seen her in Prue Smith’s apartments.
For the reason:she assigns, she was not
frank enough to inform tlie dean of that
fact, but if it is true that she had closed
the bureau drawer: and turned to leave
before she observed Miss Cadot, we
must assume that the latter would have
told the truth and corroborated her if
she had been asked to do so. At the
second, .but little occurred, but it has not
escaped our observation that while the
dean contradicts in the answer the re-
lator’s recollection of what was said, the
former, it ma¥ be through an oversight
of counsel, was not given an oppprtunity
to do so at the trial.

“At the third, all that the relator had
to say was heard. At none did she ex-
press a desire either to examine those
present or, then and there, to produce
witnesses in her behalf. As to the $2
bill incident she submitted her explana-
tion in writing, which’did not, however,
but for the reason that she gave, coin-

cide with her earlier stAtement- to—Miss:

Kennard. Mrs. Sawyer saw -and talked
in her behalf to the dean on.March 31st.
Captain Teale and Mr.-Rust, her zealous
advocates, conferred with both the presi-
dent and the dean. Even her preparatory
school teachers called upon the president
before the action of April 2nd was taken.
The president’s letter of March 26th had
already: told Mrs. Barker that after
April.2nd, ‘if you. wish to see me, I shall
be very glad-to see you.’ Mr. Richardson
called on the president on April 3rd and
she heard what-he had to say. “The fe-
lator came about April 9th, and her
mother followed in.a few days. Counsel
was retained on April 12th. Then’ fol-
lowed the long series of interviews and
conferences with President Thomas,
mentioned in our findings- of -fact, in
which all that the relator, her mother,
Mr. Rust, and Mr. Dupont had tq say
was listened to patiently. At least twice
did the president go over the entire case,

“Mr. White came into it on April 25th.
He, too, carefully investigated it and
heard Mr. Rust’s earnest presentation
of it at least twice. And finally the board
of directors, who received their first im-
pression of the case from Mr. Rust and

had before them his comprehensive and] by

ably prepared memorandum of it, a brief
that présented the matter very skillfully
and in a light most favorable to the re-

20, 1922

lator, gave it their careful consideration.

president of April 2nd’ remains
it is rarely, if ever, that such a matter
receives so thotough. consideration, so
full and fair a hearing. Not once has the
relator, or any one oh her behalf, named
a witness’ that she desired to call. There
is, Of course, no insinuation that. any. of
the officials of the college was actuated
by any improper motives,” or influenced
by* any unworthy considerations. We are
unable to see what right, substantial—or
otherwise; she has been denied. ° She
now demands that which she has already
enjoyed. .

of fact is to be found a comprehensive
statement of all that the president -had
considered, or had before here when she
took the final action of April 2nd and all
that it is necessary to say in this con;
nection is that she thereby exercised the
official discretion vested in her, her ac-
tion is.presumed by the law to have been
regular; and it is of no interest what-

her conclusion, In the exertéise -of that
discretion she was not subject to the
control af the. court. .It -has nothing
whatever to do with its result, ‘or the
mental processes by which it was
reached.” : :

***Citation of. two somewhat similar
cases omitted.***

“From the facts thus found, and: for
the reasons given, we, therefore, draw
the following

General Conclusions of Law

“1. Where a student is wrongfully ex-
pelled: from & college which is main-
tained by a private corporation of the
first class that obtains all its funds from
private benefactions and charges made
against those who attend its courses and
receives no pecuniary aid from the state
or the public, and the relation between
the student and the college is solely con-
tractual in character, the Court of Com-
mon Pleas does not have jurisdiction to
issue a writ of mandamus to compel,her

reinstatement... ,

“2. In such case, the law affords other :

adequate remedy for the wrong done.

“3. When a regulation of such a ‘col-
lege, and one of the conditions under
which students obtain entrance to ‘it,
provides thate ‘the college reserves the
right to exclude at any time students
whose conduct-or-academic—standing— it
regards as undesirable,’ the college is
not required, before it excluded a student
whose conduct it regards as undesirable,
to prefer charges and vouchsafe to her
either trial or hearing.

“4. Our third conclusion is not af-
fected or changed by the fact that, be-
fore taking action, the college afforded
the studen ho was reasonably sus-
pected of improper conduct, opportunity
for: explanation,. even though the circum-

vited to explain her conduct became known
to the other students ofthe institution.

“5. To inform the relator that she was
suspected of improper conduct ‘and to
invite her to explain it, as stich was done
in this case, without more, did not oper-
ate, by either insinuation or innuendo,
inference ‘of implication, as a charge that
she had been guilty of such impropriety.

“6. The court, even if it has jurisdic-
tion, which, in our opinion, is not the
case, is, under all the circumstances,
without power either to interfere with
or control the exercise by President
Thomas or the official discretion vested
in her, or to strike down or set aside
the decision which followed its exercise
her. :

“7, A #eremptory writ of Thandamus
must be refused and the respondents are
entitled to judgment in their favor.

According to an article in the Public

Martha Thomas; who was warden of

LIBERAL CLUB VOTES TO RAISE .
SUMMER SCHOOL SCHOLARSHIP



Justine Wise is Elected to Board;
“Freshmen May Join

A motion that the Liberal Club raise
money towards a scholarship for the Bryn
Mawr. Summer School for Industrial
Workers was unanimously passed at a
gmeeting of the Club last Friday. The
means of raising this money, which
amounts to $270, is to be decided upon by
the Board.

Justine Wise, '24,, was elected to take
the pl of E.- Vincent, ’23, upon the
Liberal Chib-Board. Concerning the, ques-
tion of admitting new members, the ClubJ
decided to open its menibership to all thdse

®,

ter, Freshmen being allowed to joitt only
in the second semester. In order to keep
out those whose interest is not genuine,
and who might join thoughtlessly, - the
Club decided to impose an initiation fee of
$1, no additional dues being charged.

Further plans were made for a tea to
be given for the new members at which
an outside speaker on. Industrial Unionism
should speak.
