DARK BLUE BANNER NOW ON GYM
1918 Champions in Water-Polo
1918 by defeating 1919, 6-1, won the
first team championship in water-polo,
and hung their bannér on the Gym in
the place of the red one which has been
there since the end of basket-ball season
last year. The Freshmen, by their good
defensive work, kept the score much
lower than might have been expected as
the ball was almost always near the
Freshman goal. The Sophomore for-
ward line never missed an opportunity
to shoot for a goal, while the Freshman
forwards were the weak place on the
team. Though 1918 clearly out-played
1919, the game was exciting throughout,
for the Freshmen never seemed to lose

THE NIGHTMARE A SEA-HORSE
1919 Adopts Modern Staging for Show
M. Martin deserves credit for the
smoothness of ‘“‘A Nightmare’, a musical
| comedy in three acts which 1919 pre-
|gented to 1918 on Saturday night.
The
| show was a welding of the necessary ani-
| mal- finding plot and some College hits |
| with actual musical comedy material and
In this latter qual-
that it copied the hackneyed musical com-
edy too much and showed too little of the
| originality for which a pure College per-
formance gives opportunity. The hippo-
campus, or sea-horse, was the unwieldy
animal on whom the slight plot centered.
Of the principals, C. Hayman, as the book-
stand keeper, did the best and most amus-
ing piece of acting in the show.
The first act began with a dance by
four dapper dress suit men and a group
of 1919 in brilliant evening gowns, who
-were given a series of entertainments.
First, J. Peabody and G. Hearne as Mr.
|and Mrs. Vernon Castle, impersonated the
famous Pierrot cover of Vanity Fair. The |
LETTERS TO ENGLISH SOLDIERS
| Red Cross Committee Asks for Magazines |
The Red Cross Committee, which has
written to Mme. Cons for the addresses,
is making up bags of gifts to send to
fifty soldiers. The bags are to contain
cards, chocolate, colored soap, pipes, and
particularly a personal letter, with the
address of the sender. There is nothing
the men enjoy more than to receive and
answer letters.
The woolen articles that were handed
in were all sent directly to Mme. Cons.
The committee asks also that the fac-
ulty and students contribute any maga-
zine they may have to be sent_to the hos-
pitals for English soldiers. Contributions
may be handed in to Miss Jeannetta Jam-
eson, Pembroke West.

dent of the League, will speak on the two

speak on the joining of the two Associa-

the first president of the united Associa-
tion, will speak on the first year of the
Association. Miss Applebee will end the
meeting with a talk on “Wild Members I

SELF-GOV DECIDES ALL MEMBERS
SHALL REPORT OFFENSES
Treasurer’s Resignation is Accepted
The resignation of R. Cheney, '18, from
the office of treasurer of the Self-Govern-
ment Association was accepted at the
self-government meeting last Thursday
night. The policy of the Association in
next diversion was a processiog of vari- | cial Wednesday evening meeting in Rock-| regard to reporting was also definitely

Spruce, A. Moore, came the hit of the first |
act, the reporter’s song, and the first men-

was explained by the charms of the avia-
The
act ended with the sudden appearance of
E. Dabney, a member of '19, who rushed
| in with the news that the animal was lost |
and fainted, as the curtain fell, into the
ready arms of Bobby Spruce.
The 42d Street Subway, in Act II, was
the scene for C. Hayman’s caricature of
the shop girl type, in which she intro-
duced the song, “I Keep a Book Shop”,
which won as much applause as the Ban-
ner show song, “I Didn’t Raise My Girl
to Be a Chicken”. The cleverest allusion
to College came when the four football
stars suddenly turned their backs to the
audience and embraced 1919, displaying
a large 1-9-1-7. The other classes were
represented by a chorus of dark blue po-
liceman and light blue dancers. The po-
liceman’s drill showed careful training
and a keen enjoyment of the fun of the
thing.

upheld the president in her ruling that

The revolutionary motions proposed in
the recent Self-Government meeting with
regard to Miss Cheney’s resignation and
the honor reporting clause threatened to
take the responsibility from the individ-
ual and so to undermine the power of the
Assodiation. If passed, they would have
made it impossible for any board to en-
force the rules of the Association or to
maintain their position with dignity.
During the discussion it seemed that
some advocated complete license and
some wanted to throw on the officers all
the responsibility of enforcing the rules.
When the vote was taken, however, it
was almost unanimous for the equal obli-
gation of all the members. The Self-
Government Association is the stronger
for the clear formulation of a principle
before only vaguely understood and for
this striking proof that the members will
‘stand together to uphold the rules of the
Association.
A recent letter to one of our leading
newspapers rails bitterly against the
present system of newspaper cartoons
and photographs. “Our noted man”, it
says, “is utterly bereft of all privacy. He
can not venture into the street without
being recognized and surrounded by a
crowd of curious starers, who whisper
and point him out as the man who did
this or that”. The case is put a little too
strongly perhaps. As a matter of fact,
there is still plenty of chance for the
King Alfred and the cake type of episode.
The writer may be comforted by an occur-
rence which took place when Mr. Mase-
field came to Philadelphia to deliver a
lecture on Shakespeare. So large was
the crowd that had assembled to hear the
poet that thousands were forced to re-
main outside. Among them was a tall,
thin man who seemed bent on the appar-
ently impossible task of reaching the
door. With great difficulty he made his
way through the unwilling crowd and
reached his goal only to be stopped by an
official, who informed him sternly that
there was absolutely no more room. The
man—but perhaps the intelligent reader
has already guessed who he was.
The Christian Association rarely stirs
up controversy over constitutional ques-
tions, and has no definite rules to enforce
or to rescind, but it needs as well as the
other Associations, now and then, a fresh
start and a new inspiration. A splendid
opportunity for this is afforded by the
conference and birthday celebration this
week. Speakers from outside the College
bring their standards for the Association
to measure up to, and those who knew
the Association in the past can give us | Men
a chance to see what progress has been
made. It is a time for the members to
consider what they are doing for the ad-
vance of the Association and what it is
doing for their development. It is a rare |
opportunity for all interested or not in- | «

Ath. Board Explains Lack of Skating
To the Editor of “The College News”:
To the Editor of “The College News”:
In answer to the letter which asks,
Where is our promised good skating?” all
we can say is that we have done the best
we could to have skating. According to
the agreement with the College, the re-
taining wall for the lower field was not
to be built until the summer of 1916, so
we hoped that the plan of sprinkling
would be successful for this year. Real-
izing that the skating on the old lower
field was never satisfactory, we have
‘tried experiments and made plans for a
skating pond in a better situation, so
that if everything goes as it should, there
will undoubtedly be good skating next
winter.

Pem. West Objects to Notoriety
Ty the Editor of ‘The College News’’:
Pembroke West is doubtless flattered
by the attention received in the last “Col-
lege News” in the notice concerning the
self-government meeting and fire’ drill.
But I should like to ask in what way the
inner workings of Pembroke West are of
general interest? Since Pembroke West
is already connected with the correct
facts of the matter, why is the valuable
space of “The News” unnecessarily
wasted?

MAHLER’S SYMPHONY PLAYED
IN AMERICA FOR FIRST TIME
To Repeat Special Performance in April
On April 5th will be given a special per-
formance of Gustav Mahler’s Eighth
Symphony because of the success of the
two performances at the Academy of
Music last week. Because of the exces-
sive difficulty of the score and the large
number of voices required, the symphony
has been performed only twice before,
once in Munich and once in Berlin. Last
Friday it was performed for the first time
in America.
The Philadelphia Orchestra, enlarged
to 110 members, and the chorus of 958
voices, were conducted by Mr. Leopold
Stokowski. Since 1914, when he first
saw that it would be possible to produce
the symphony here, Mr. Stokowski has
been working steadily on its production.
The chorus, which includes 150 children,
has been training since last spring.
The symphony was written a little over
six years ago. It is based on an old Latin
hymn, “Veni Creator Spiritus”, and the
second part of Goethe’s “Faust”, includ-
ing all the characters and practically all
the dialogues. Gustav Mahler is a Bo-
hemian by birth. He was for a time at
the head of the Court Opera in Vienna.
In 1907 he came to America and was at
the head of the New York Philharmonic
Society until his death.

“Danny Deever” Given as Encore
David Bispham’s genial personality and
his fine voice delighted those who heard
him Friday evening in Taylor. Much of
the success of the recital was due to Mr.
Bispham’s accompanist, Mr. Rogers.
Mr. Bispham interrupted his song re-
cital by explanatory and humorous com-
ments before each number. One learned,
among other things, that Handel’s opera,
“Semele”, was written first in Italian, ac-
cording to the fashion of his day; that
Garrick thought “comedy a very serious
business”, and that singers do not go out
in th@ intermission “for a drink of water
or for silent meditation, but for ap-
plause”. Mr. Bispham does not believe
that singers are linguists, so with two ex-
ceptions he sang entirely in English.
“The Wanderer”, he sang purposely in its
original vigorous German and the merry
little song, “When I was a Page”, from
Verdi’s opera, “Falstaff”, he sang in Ital-
jan. But saying that this was “a slip of
the tongue”, he repeated it in English. It
‘was encored by “Ring Out, Wild Bells”,
which ended the first half of the pro-
gram. -
In the second half of the program the
recitation to music, “In Days Gone By”,
was far less successful than the songs.
“Down Among the Dead Men”, a rousing
Jacobite drinking song, was encored by
the “musical antidote’, “Drink to Me
Only with Thine Eyes”. “Mistress Ma-
grath”, an Irish recruiting song of the
Napoleonic wars, was sung to a catchy,
jigging accompaniment and ended the
group of folk songs.
~The songs by Americancomposers
were encored by two of Kipling’s barrack-
room ballads set to music. “Danny
Deever”’, of course, brought down the
house, and the regimental ditty which
complains that “every bloomin’ campin’-
ground’s exactly like the last’, was ap-
plauded on its own merits. The music
for ‘“‘Route-marchin’” was composed es-
pecially for Mr. Bispham.
moment.
1919 started off with a rush, and for
the first few moments put 1918 on the de-|
fensive, L. Peters making one goal. 1918
soon got into form, and G. Flanagan |™
seored first for 18. The ball was again
worked down near ’19’s goal, A. Thorn-
dike making a difficult stop; but M.
Q’Connor shoved the ball over the line.
Half-time was called just after M. O’Con-
nor scored again for *18. At the begin-
ning of the second half 1918 was clearly
on the offensive, M. O’Connor making a
goal almost immediately. - Again the ball
was brought down near 1919’s goal and
the guards and goal fought well, keeping
out many difficult shots. T. Howell got
the ball half-way down the pool, and from
there made one of her spectacular goals.
For the first and only time in the half
1919 worked the ball near '18’s goal, but
V. Kneeland threw it out of danger. Be-
fore the end M. O’Connor threw her
fourth goal, ending the game with a score
of 6-1.
