Dr. Ross Preaches Baccalaureate
(Continued from Page 1)
Dr. Ross went on to say that all this
mystery only drives us’ back upon God.
“And best of all”, he said, “this mystery
shall not always endure”. The reason we
may hope for its solution is ‘that our own
inmost thought is surely known. ‘He that
follows me shall have the light of lights’ ms
Two Types of Women Always Disdained
In his address directly to the Seniors,
Dr. Ross said that there were two types
of women who would always be disdained
—the social frivol and the intellectual
poseur. “Unless you are traitors to this
College”, he said, “these you will never
be”.
ALUMNA NOTES
In connection with the Military and
Naval Tournament at Sheepshead Bay,
New York, Cynthia Wesson ’09 won first
- place in the Archery Competition with
scores of 944 in the Double Columbia
Round and 831 in the Double National
Round. The last score was 75 points bet-
ter than the present national record.
Dorothy Weston ‘14, holder of the
Carola Woerishoffer Scholarship, is to be
Girls’ Worker at the Jan Huss Neighbor-
hood House in the Bohemian District of
New York City.
Ena Riegel and Ella Riegel, both of the
Class of ’89, have just returned from a
tour in the West with the Congressional
Woman Suffrage Special. The object of
the trip was, if Congress failed to pass
the suffrage amendment this session, to
form a women’s party at the Chicago Con-
vention in order to force this amendment.
The party met with a cordial reception
throughout the West.
Willie Savage ex-16 was lately married
to C. Brinkley Turner, of Overbrook,
Pennsylvania. Mr. Turner is a graduate
of Haverford College. They will live in
Overbrook.
Last Saturday night 1915 had their re-
union supper in Rockefeller, 1914 had a
picnic, and 1911 also had their reunion
supper. On Monday evening the class
suppers were 1906 and 1913, and 1896 and
1903 on Tuesday evening.
1915 has voted to have their reunion in
Rockefeller Hall again next year.
Anna Eldredge 08 was the one woman
to receive high honours in the Law School
of the University of Chicago. With five
men, she has been elected to the Order
of the Coif for high distinction in the
work of the Law School.
CHANGES IN REQUIRED ENGLISH
Composition and Literature Separated
The most radical changes in the
courses for next year occur in the English
Department. Required English will be
split up into five hour blocks, First Year
Composition and Second Year Literature
coming the first semester and Second
Year Composition and First Year Litera-
ture coming the second semester.
By this plan the two semesters of Com-
position will be divided by two succes-
sive semesters of Literature, the Compo-
sition coming entirely in the first sem-
ester and the Literature entirely in the
second semester of the first year and vice
versa in the second year.
Professor Donnelly, as before, is head
of the Literature, and Professor Savage,
in place of Dr. Crandall, is head of the
Composition.
Other New Courses
As a sort of extension of her Daily
Themes course, Dr. Crandall will give a
two hour course in Intermediate Composi-
tion. A two hour course in the Technique
of the Drama will be given by Dr. Savage.
Instead of Graphic Mathematics, next
year Dr. Scott will give a one hour course
in Fundamental Theorems: Miss Thayer's
one hour course in French Phonetics has
been changed from a post-major to an
elective. All these courses, including the
French, are elective for two semesters

ALL- ROUND CHAMPIONSHIP
GOES TO 1917
Hockey, Track, Basket-ball Victories
Easily Counterbalance Water Polo Loss
With 178 points, 1917 wins the all-round
athletic championship for the year, their
big leads in hockey, track, and basket-ball
putting them 51 points ahead of their
nearest rivals, 1918, in spite of the Sopho-
mores having won water polo. 1919 is in
third place with 82 points and 1916 fourth
with 10 points. These figures have been
made up without the points from the bas-
ket-ball B. M.’s, but these will make no
material difference. Points:
