WEEK-END MATTER SETTLED IN
SELF-GOVERNMENT MEETING

_ Faculty Resolutions Accepted By
Unaminous Vote ©

‘Discussion of the vote of the faculty on
the question of week-ends took place at
a Self-Government meeting held in Taylor
Hall on November 22. A motion to accept
the resolutions of the faculty and to make
the Association for ‘Self-Government “the
recognized agency: for dealing with the
matter of week-ends” was passed unani-
mously by the ,meeting. -

On the basis of a recommendation from
_ the Committee’ on Curriculum, the faculty
voted that,.

“It is the. sense of. the faculty that the
whole. problem of -week-ends is so impor-
tant in its educational bearing, that it is
essentially a matter in which the faculty
has responsibilities. THe faculty is con-
cerned in the disposition which the students



it affects their attitude toward their Col-
lege work. It is the judgment of the fac-
ulty that continuous residence is an: impor-
tant factor. in the educational system of
Bryn Mawr College. ©

“The faculty, errs adopts the fol-
lowing resolutio

“1. -In so far as the use sf week-ends
is important: in its educational aspect it is
essentially a matter for which the faculty
is continuously responsible.

mendation of the president and dean. of
the College that in view of the vote of
the “Undergraduate Association (May,
1921) the regulation of week-ends be ‘re-
considered.

“3. The. faculty, having noted the ten-
dency foward an abuse of week-ends, wel-
‘comes “the above recognition by the stu-
dents of the value of continuous residence.
Inasmuch as effective control by the stu-
dents themselves: would be of more ,real
advantage to the College than any regula-
tion by authority, the faculty is prepared
to leave the whole matter in the hands of
the students, either for direct regulation
through any of their recognized agencies
or for indirect control by building a suf-
ficiently strong and intelligent public’ opin-
ion on the question. The faculty, there-
fore, undertakes that for the present there

shall be no regulation, direct or indirect,
initiated by the faculty or any of its offi-
cers and that all regulations recently pro--/
mulgated shall be at once withdrawn.
“4, The faculty stipulates, however,
_ that i in order to provide data for a correct
” ianderstanding for the effect of over-night
absences: on academic work a special re-
port shall be kept of all over-night ab-
sences (not only at week-ends) by the
students, otherwise in such a way as may
‘be arranged by the faculty. In either case
the record’ shall be accepted as official, not
subject to challenge on the score of cor-
reétness. Copies of each month’s record

lege for the faculty, and to the secretary
of the Senate.

“5. This action of the faculty is with-
out prejudice to the rights of the Senate.”
“The Self-Government voted unanimously

EDITOR OF LONDON“MERCURY”
ENGLISH CLUB SPEAKER

Finest Paki is Found in Regular
* Verse Forms, Mr. Squire Believes

are ie Squire, editor of the London
Mercury wand a poet and writer of long
experience, spoke on “Poetry” last Fri-
day evenimg in Taylor Hall, under the
auspices Qf the English Club.

Poetry, Mr. Squire defined as the en-
tire body of work’ inherited from all the
writers of all countries and all ages,
which’ has achieved immortality and
which people have agreed to call poetry.
“This is-not a real definition,’ Mr. Squire
commented} “but a snake with its’ tail in
its mouth.” Of the qualities common ta
this entire body of work, Mr. Squire
found regularity of rhythm the most im-
portant. “I don’t think we need regard
this emphasis as a very marvelous thing.
-There seems good reason to suppose
that there is a link between.a kind of
regularity in speech and a state of more
than usually tntense emotion. If you
examine the work of a prose writer you
find that when in the course of a. narra-
tive he comes to a point at which his
emotions are unusually intense, the
movement of prose tends to rise to the
movement of verse.” The finest. prose
passages, those always chosen for the
anthologies, are those most like: poetry,
Mr. Squire said. :

A second quality noticeable ‘in study-
ing poetry is the perpetual recurrence
of the same themes. “The vital force in
poetry is intense emotion and if you ex-
amine human life it is only to be ex-
pected that again and again “the same
things are treated, because again and
again men have been moved by the same
simple things. Not only is the moral
landscape largely the same as it always
was but the physical landscape remains
for the most part unchanged. However
much we may wish the sun the moon
and the stars to be replaced by other
objects less hackneyed, those objects.
nevertheless, remain the same.

_ Poet Must Write Sincerely

“Let the poet write sincerely; let him
find what garment best suits his thought.
If he produces the genuine article you
will find. that he may have produced free
verse, but he will not over-step the border-
line and write free prose as many mod-
¢rn writers do.” Out of the entire body
of= Walt Whitman’ se work, Mr. Squire
finds the same few are always chosen
for anthologies, such ones as “Captain,
my Captain,” and “When Lilacs First in
the Door-Yard Bloom.” “Here is a
man,” said Mr. Squire, “who set out to
be rather revolutionary. But everyone
agrees that he wrote best when he wrote
most like other people. I’m not to be
taken as suggesting that it is desirable
to confine yourself to the traditional sub-
jects. or always advisable to do so. We
are all delighted when we find ourselves
moved by a theme not often treated in
poetry, or a word before considered un-
poetical or even unmusical. But that
must happen naturally.”



poetry, Mr. Squire believes, in the way
many othér laughable things have come
—because some writer had . to. write
sincerely...

VARSITY SUBDUES MERION 5-3
AFTER EVENLY MATCHED GAME



Tenacity and Teamwork-Spell Victory
for Brown Players

After a long, hard fight on a muddy
field Varsity. overcame Merion last Sat-
urday with a score of 5-3). Both teams
lacked organization and owing. to the
slipperiness were unable to make ‘much of
long, hard shots. . The fight put up by
Merion was spectacular from: the start
and gave them the lead during the first
part of the game.

_Miss Forstall’s active work on the left
wing personified: Merion’s — stick-to-it-
iveness throughout the match. She was
responsible for the first goal of the game,
made after-a-tong, speedy run down the
field. The strength of both teams lay on
that side and E. Anderson and M. Tyler
combined constant#y on passes, usually
clearing the fullback if not blocked by
Miss Minor at left half, who fought
staunchly to feed her wing. They were
‘unable to effect any goals in the first
half but F. Begg at left inside shot the
ball in for Bryn Mawr’s first tally after
a scrimmage in the circle. Again Miss
Forstall got away with it and after a bit
of desperate scrapping with A. Nicc!
right halfback, and H. Rice, fullback,
pushed in Merion’s second goal, leaving
the scoring 2-1 in the visitors’ favor at
the end: of the half.

Opening. the second period D. Lee,
center forward on Varsity, tied the score
after a fast dribble from the fifty yard
line ending in a clear gual: The play
again centered in the Bryn Mawr circle
and the coneerted effort of the team in
a hot skirmish netted another tally. Miss
Bigelow, at right inside, then accom-
plished an answering goal for Merion.
But for the valiant work of the opposing.
half and fullback the speedy left wing
would have broken the tie for Merion
at this point, but the ball passing to Bryn
Mawr territory stayed there for the re-
mainder of the game, D. Lee and E.
Anderson netting the last two goals.

SENIOR RECEPTION SKIT °

—_—_—_—

‘Clever’ Take-Off and Costuming Win

Audienrte’s Praise



Freshmen Also Present Pun-ful’ Drama
"With Great Effect

e : 2



Specially Contributed

It was a transformed gymnasium into
which the. Freshmen were ushered by the
Seniors last Saturday night. Soft lights,
blue streamers, swaying, lanterns, balloons
and birds, combined with the music of a
real orchestra to augur well for a festive
evening.

The. Freshmen began the festivities.
Their skit, entitled “And the Lamp Went

‘| Out,” followed the: inevitable tradition of

Freshman skits in being the pantomime of
a réad story. Though the acting avas all
on the highest. skit level; ‘C. Remak,. as
Herbet Vanderslyce, the villain, was per-
haps the most remarkable. H.: Smith is
also highly to be commended for her ac-
tivities behind. the scenes, as she alone
produced the thunderstorm, the moonrise
and -the siren shriek, while D, Lee @x-
tinguished the lamp successfully by crawl-
ing out .with the table on which it: was
set into the wings. The skit abounded in
dramatized puns, as when Mrs, De Vere

“swept into the room” with a broom, or 7

when Evelyn literally “took -her mother’s
arm” and walked out. These were so well
done, and the whole skit moved so quickly
and easily, that from the laughter of the
audience one would ‘not suspect the pun of
being a humble form of humor.

The characters were as follows: Mrs. De
Vere, M. Constant; Evelyn De Vere, M.
Hanson; Ralph Grayson, E. Lawrence;
Herbert Vanderslyce, C. Remak; Reader,
Edith Walton’; property man ae noises,
H. Smith, ; ;

Senior Skit Parodies “Blue Bird”

“The Quest After the Merit Owl,” an
ingenious parody of the “Blue Bird,” by
1922, which followed the Freshman skit,
was the story of Tyltyl and Mytyl, |the
Freshman class, assisted in their search
for the elusive merit by Sugar, Light, Dog
and the C. A. Fairy. As the children F,
Bliss atid J. Burgess were a well-matched
pair, not only reciting their lines in uni~
son, but dressed as nearly alike as possible.
A. Gabel, M. Kennard, V. Liddell and E.
Gabell, as the Terrier, Sugar, Light and
Fire could hardly have been equaled in ap-
pearance, both as Blue Bird characters and
as the coMegiate figures which they were
made to represent. The best acting in the
skit was undeniably K. Peek’s; who, as
Cousin Alys, gave a lifelike and complete
interpretation of a difficult character, S.
Hand as Night had an even more difficult

bd

part, and. depended on less subtle character- -

ization for her effect. For those who saw
her in Banner Show last year, her acting
was apt to be a little disappointing.

‘Of the choruses, the quartet of busts
was the most original, though it was more

amusing onthe hop in and out, than dur- -

ing its actual speeches. With the excep-
tion of the three roped ladies in Night’s
“Council the rest of the characters were
not. out of the common. run_ of college
skit personages.

’-Thhe Costume and Scenery Committocs
are to be particularly’ congratulated on the
scerie in which Light stood at the top of

Senior steps. Her blue costume, illuminated . _

with a deep: fringe of silver strips, and her
flaming halo, showed a touch of genius in

their design. The entrance of Night in her ;

automobile, constructed from the infirmary
wheelchair, was also a coup. deverving

Barnard Takes the Lead . ¢

Realizing that under the American sys-
tem of éducation brilliant students have
hitherto received little encouragement
toward using their powers to the full,

* Barnard ‘is this year experimenting with
a spéctiai honors course, based on the
English Honors System, “It is an ef-
fort,” says Dean Gildersleeve, of Barn-
ard, “to provide for the ablest students

‘an opportunity to do the best work of
which they are capable, and to this end
to reliéve them of a good deal of the
prdinary routine of college, and some
‘prescribed courses... We have -felt for
‘some time that we spend too much time
on our mediocre and poor students and
not enough on really good ones.

“Students: will not be admitted to this
course until they have demonstrated that
they have unusual ability. Ordinarily,
they will enter it at the beginning of the
Sgphomore year or of the Junior year.

, As a result of excellent entrance ex-
aminations, confirmed by special exam-
inations held by the faculty, it might be
possible for a very extraordinary student
of unusual maturity to be admitted at
the beginning of her Freshman year, but

“this will probably occur very rarely, if
ever. cae

“Students in this course are required

to take at least four years of college
work before receiving the degree ol
Bachelor of Arts. They may, however,
substitute for the usual requirement of
120 points 4 course of special study in
a single subject or a group of related
subjects. The proper department or
group of departments- takes charge of
the students’: work and, subject to the

_ apptoval of the faculty, determines what
she thust do in order to receive the
degree. Ps

“Ordinarily, such students will be ex-
empted. from a good deal of the’ pre-
scribed work. They will also be ex-
empted from some of the regular exam-
inations.. Except in the Senior year, the
manner of testing proficiency will rest
with the department in charge. In the
Senior year regular examinations will be
omitted and every student must pass, at
_-the end of the year, a ‘comprehensive
examination covering her curriculum.

anne will readily be.seen that this plan

is an effort to avoid some of the faults

Bryn Mawr’s Opportunity"

If the series of lectures given by Mrs.

Anna Howard Shaw Memorial Founda-
tion’s work, we can only say that we are
"sorry that Bryn Mawr was chosen as the
Instead ot
“furthering the study of government in
the, broadest sense,” which was the pur-
pose of the Foundation, it seems to have
planted the seeds of anarchism and re-
volt in the undergraduates who attended,
forced in every case by the requirements
of-the politics or economics course. In
the first place, Mrs. Catt gave a super-
ficial study of conditions in which the
major student could find many flaws, and
in the second place she stressed the “call
for college women,” which is becoming
to the undergraduate almost what the
red rag is tothe bull’. coc

* In offering the following plan, we be-
lieve that’ we’ prevent the recurrence of
any such unfortunate event, besides im-
measurably broadening the Foundation’s
influence. It is briefly: to form a Bryn
Mawr Bureau of Political Information to
be supported by the Shaw Foundation.
This department to consist of trained
experts prepared to answer the ques-
tions of the whole country, to draw up
briefs on political questions and to gather
material for debates; in a word, to act
as a clearing house of information that,
beside answering specific questions, will

prepare impartial summaries on impend-
ing ones.

This is‘a totally new departure but
stray letters and appeals to the Depart-
ment of Politics show an increasing de-
mand for some such bureau. Bryn Mawr
now has an unusual opportunity to take
a lead in the matter and “opportunity
knocks but once!”

International Arbitration

A great many people are at present pre-|
occupied with the question: of disarmament.
Yet it is, at most, a side. issue of the ques-
tion of universal peace, if not merely its
result. Partial disarmament is but the post-
ponement of war and complete disarma-
ment is at present impossible. The nations
victorious in the war are compelled to keep
armed to a certain degree until the terms
of the peace treaty have been complied
with. Germany, Russia and ‘Turkey . will
remain uninfluenced by the Washington

To the Editor of THE CoLLece NEWS:

“Browsing” now weighs~ so heavily in
the scale of educational values that to en-
courage it clubs are formed, the question
of limited week-ends is agitated, the- word
is on the tip of every student’s tongue.
A professor from Stamford University
states’ the situation thus in terms which
might have applied directly to BrytiyMawr:

“The college student does not read be-
cause he has read so much; he thinks he
is too busy to read general literature;. stu-
dent ‘activities’ absorb all the time not
allotted to his- college*courses—or perhaps
I have the. order of importance reversed
for‘some cases; he has been warned for
so many years by so many Solomons not
to become. a bookworm that he really _re-.
gards this as a menace to his future. And
so we nieed to do what we can to overcome
these’ obstacles and calm these fears, The
end will justify some seemingly high-
handed means.” S

The “high-handed means” referred to
are a course which, this professor proposes
offering, in which two hours’ credit toward
a degree. would be given for six hours’
browsing, the students to be held. account-
able for what they have read, through in-
formal reports, essays or simple “signing
up.” The student will have from 1000 to
3000. volumes. of “literature, history and
the literary classics of science” from which
to choose. More advanced students might
be allowed the privilege of reading in the
stacks at large. .

Bryn Mawr must certainly see the value
of this. plan for enconraging general read-
ing. The problem involved is one of inter-
est to all faculty and students, who grant
that assigned reading for courses does: not
take the place of, general reading, who
agree with Mrs. Browning that,

“We ‘get no ea

‘And calculating profits—so much help
By so much reading. It is rather when
We gloriously forget ourselves, and plunge
Soul-forward, headlong, into the book’s

Impassioned for its beauty and the salt of

’Tis then we get the right good | froma a

IN THE NEW BOOK ROOM

Probably the most interesting thing in
the New. Book Room this’ week is-a copy
of the American Intercollegiate Magazine
which contains three contributions from
Bryn Mawr; “Fire Weed” and “On the
Hilltop,” a sonnet, by Dorothy Wyckoff,
21, and “The ingdom That Knew It All”
(one-act play), by Vinton Liddell, ’22.

“Commemoration and Other Poems,” by

| Thomas Dwight Goodell, late professor of

Greek at Yale University, is the most re-
cent acquisition in poetry; ‘a very con-
servative group of poems published by the
author’s classmates after his death.
“Angels and Ministers, Three Plays of
Victorian Shade and Character,” by Lau-
rence Housman, is another very new book:
Mr. Housman writes in the preface, “just
at this moment the Victorian age-has, that
bloom upon it—autumnal, not springlike—
which in the nature of things cannot last.
That bloom’ I have tried to illumine before
time wipes it away.” The plays are called,
“The Queen, Bless Her!” “His Fa-
vorite Flower,” “The Comforter,” and
deal with domestic episodes in. the life of
Queen Victoria, a statesman and Mr.
“More Trivia” it is unnecessary to in-
troduce. All who know Logan Pearsall
Smith’s first little volume, “Trivia,” will
have a warm welcome for its successor.

Mr. Fullerton Waldo, musical critic for

article in the. Ledger for Sunday, Novem-
ber 28, describing Mr. Alwyne’s recent ap-

chestra, said:
“Fhe played the Rubinstein: D- -minor

cert, after repeated recalls, Mr. Gabrilo-

sian Symphony Orchestra on tour, com-
mitting the baton into.the hands of Mr.
Alwyne for that number. Alwyne has been
a known and praised performer in Europe
since she was fourteen. At that tender age
he appeared in Manchester, ‘performing the
Beethoven concerto in C majgr. He later
became conductor himself “of both orches-
tra and chorus in that city,-and in the two
/ seasons past he has toured the music cen-
ters of Europe, including Berlin, Vienna,
Leipzig. ‘You are ‘certainly one of the
finest,’ said Josef Stransky not long ago;
and. Gabrilowitsch wrote to Ysaye: ‘A
young man of great talent, whom you will
find very interesting.’ a

“One who hears Alwyne, play remarks
at once the astofishing freedom, breadth
and vigor of his style, which seems to

utterance. The notes are all live and plastic
under “the player’s touch. of command;
nothing is ever-dull and perfunctory. He

MEMBER OF ENGLISH TEAM TO
COACH RADCLIFFE IN HOCKEY

“The enthusiasm for hockey is certainly
at a height and increasing,” writes The
Radcliffe News in a review of the shockey
season in a re®ent issue. Only three out
of seven Varsity games played were vic-
tories for Radcliffe, but this has evidently
not dampened their spirits, quite the con-
trary, for the experiment of hockey in the
spring will be tried with class games.
Playing against the English who beat them
18-0 gained Radcliffe a great deal of ex-

’ perience from which they have had much
. profit, Miss Warner, of the English team,

who, is coaching the teams of Greater
- Boston, will advise Radcliffe on the game
Thursday, December 8.

VARSITY BREAKS BACK OF:
- ALUMNAE IN HARD SCRAP



Brown Team Triumphs to the Tune
of 13-2 Last Wednesday

Strength: of numbers as well as strength
of team work gave Varsity an overwhelm-
ing victory over a team of eight alumnae
in a scrappy but amicable game played on
a swampy field last Wednesday afternoon,
Though the last third of the game was
played practically in the dark and the ap-
preciative audience (especially the alum-
nae) dwiffiled away before the end, the
alumnag- kept up a steady fight against
great odds. Spills among members of the
home team, more used to the, circumstances
of mud and-darkness, frequently occurred.

G. Hearne, '19, of the Overseas Team,
now playing center forward on the [921
All-Philadelphia team, was by far the
speediest on the field and. used -her stick
cleverly throughout.. After one of —her.
spectacular runs she shot the first goal of
the game. ,Not again during the half was
she able to keep the ball .long: enotth to
make~use~of it:”M:"Tyler, °19,~ sister Of"
M. Tyler,’ ’22, starred at wing, but A.
Nicoll gave her considerable trouble as
opposing halfback and prevented her from
shooting. ,M. Gardner, ’18, warden of Den-
bigh, nobly held down three positions- in
the backfield and as goal made three spec-
tacular-saves. In spite of her heroic efforts
Varsity netted seven goals in the first half,
of which M. Tyler made four, and in the
second half eight, of which D, Lee made
four. Once again G. Hearne, 19, got away
for her second tally, clearing with an Eng-
lish clevertiess the Varsity defense in which .
H. Rice was notable for her steadiness.
This is the first time in two years that
the alumnae have played the College. .

The line-up was: ;

Varsity: M. Mutch, .F. Begg*, D.
Lee****, M. Tyler*****, E. Anderson*, F.

VASSAR ENDOWMENT FUND AIDED
BY PLUMBERS’ UNION

The Vassar College Endowment Fund
boasts a contribution unique in the his-
tory of college fund gifts, a check for $25
which came unsolicited last week from the
United Association’ of Plumbers and Steam
Fitters, Local Union No. 180. The follow-

‘ing note was inclosed:

“We believe in a fair rate of wages for
all, and because Vassar. professors are. re-
ceiving less than professors and teachers
in other colleges weggonsider that this fund
is a worthy object and we are glad to
make a-contribution to it.”

The fund organizers are so pleased with

-| the gift that they have considered: framing

the check.

A new effort being made in behalf of
the fund is the Vassar Shop’ which has
been opened at 348 Madison between Forty-
fourth and Forty-fifth’ Streets, for the sale
_of Christmas gifts. A Vassar amateur cor- .
poration makes the ~ Chejstmas cards to”
order. .

._. .How Were X-Rays Discovered?

SR James Mackenzie Davidson visited P:
out how he discovered the X-rays.

) Roentgen had covered a vacuum tube, called a Hittorf or Civcees
4 tube, with black paper so as to cut off all its light. About four yards
away was a piece of cardboard coated with a fluorescent compound.

: He turned on the current in thetube. The cardboard glowed brightly.
; ___Sir James asked him: ‘‘What did you think?”

“I didn’t think, I investigated,” said Roentgen. He wanted to
know what made the cardboard glow.

of lives are saved by surgeons who use the X-rays. :

- General Electric Company became interested in a certain phenomenon

sometimes observed in incandescent lamps. Others had observed it,
but he, like Roentgen, investigated. The result was the discovery

_ of new laws governing electrical conduction in high vacuum.

Another scientist in the same laboratory saw that on the basis of those
new laws he could build a new tube for producing X-rays more effec-

tively. This was the Coolidge X-ray tube which marked the greatest —

advance jn the X-ray art since the original discovery by Roentgen.

Thus, scientific investigation of a strange phenomenon led to the
discovery of a new art, and-scientific investigation of another strange

phenomenon led to the greatest improvement in that art.

It is for such reasons that the Research Laboratories of the General
. Electric Company are continually investigating, continually exploring

the unknown. It is new knowledge that is sought. But practical



results follow in an endless stream, and in many unexpected ways.

LAST LECTURE BY MRS. CATT °
SUMS UP DUTIES OF CITIZEN

The first course of lectures “under . the
‘. Anna Howard Shaw Memorial Founda-
tion was completed by Mrs. Catt’s last
lecture on Thursday night. The five lec-
tures which Mrs. Catt has given at Bryn
Mawr this fall are being printed and can
be obtained from .the office,

The last lecture was a summation of the
duties: of a, good citizen, “one who helps
the state or nation win definite steps for-
ward”; for ‘Mrs. Catt feels confident that
the state is really moving ahead and that
“the’ politics of; today are a tremendous im-
provement over the politics of fifty years
ago.” In entering citizenship, one must
enter the ranks of the bad, the indifferent
or the good. “The bad are those who are
political bosses or the direct tool of po-
litical bosses; the indifferent are those who
know nothing about any party and are
determined nat to learn, and the good are
those intelligent and courageous thinkers
on whom the status of thé nation depends.
But provided one intends to become a
‘good’ citizen “one has still to choose be-
tween. parties: the minority, the dominant
and the non-partisan.” The sad thing here
is, Mrs. Catt said, that no party is wholly
bad or’ good and the two are inextricably
mixed, “although it is the duty of the good
citizen to try to distinguish between them
and combat the ‘bad.’ Having decided on a
party, then; the good citizen should enroll
in it and request an opportunity for work
which will probably take the form of mak-
ing maps, reports or independent studies.

“As soon as a woman enters active pol-

. itics she comes up against the problem of
how to get the sexes working together,
but though the problem is more obvious in
this field, it is not.a political one but as
old as the time of the cave man.

“There are many different tasks a woman
may take up; she may interest herself in
some reform; she may take up the question
of analyzing the emotional side of politics,
she may. work to create popular demand,
for ,parties follow but do not lead public
opinion; or she may work fer any of the
reforms the Woman’s League of Voters
is backing:

“1, Abolition
electorate.

“2. Abolition of party machinery.

“3. Abolition of legislative discrimina-
tion against women.

"4, Improvement .
ciency.

“5, Equal place for women.

“6, Education of women voters.”

Mrs. Catt ended by giving three precepts
which she had always found most useful:
“Do not put so many irons in the fire’ that
they will all get cold; think in terms of
success; remember that there is no such
thing as impossibility.” :
