NEWS FROM OTHER COLLEGES
A resolution of the Student Council of
Barnard, passed last month, reads: “We
respectfully petition the dean of Barnard
College at least to make the certainty of
incurring undesired notoriety for the col-
lege the only basis for exclusion of out-
side speakers.”
Amherst College debating team was de-
feated last month by Vassar in the first
hate with a woman’s college in the his-
é of Amherst. The debate took place
at Amherst, where Vassar sent a delega-
tion of twenty-five. The judges rendered
a two to one decision in favor of the. visit-
ing team, which was upholding the affirma- |
tive of the question, “Resolved, that it is in
accord with the public interest to abridge
the right to strike and the right to lockout
“by requiring industrial-disputes tobe settled
by compulsory tribunals.”
Vassar has instituted amafgamation meet-
ings of their Associations, in which the busi-

Many colleges were represented at the
sixth annual:meeting of The Eastern So-
ciety of? the Association of Directors ot”
“Physical Education for Wemen, ‘held at
Bryn Mawr, on April 27th and 28th.
Discuvstons on efficiency tests and inger-
collegiate athletics were. held. It was de--
cided that. the requirements. in swimming
all women’s colleges should include ‘a
straight dive, forty-yard swim, half of
which distance must be done on a breast
stroke, side stroke or crawl, and the ability
to float.
The delegates were entertained at din?
ner on Friday by Dean Smith and Mrs.
Arlitt. , Dean Smith spoke on physical
training at the: Summer School and Mrs
Arlitt on physical education in relation
to psychology. Swimming and appa-
ratus exhibitions, a water-polo game and
a hockey game were also held in honor
of the delegates.
