TENNIS TEAMS MAINLY COMPOSED
OF OLD FAVOURITES
Freshmen Leave Tournament Unfinished
The ranking of several of last year’s
players has changed, but with few excep-
tions the same people are playing for the
three upper classes. The matches are to
be played off this week in first and sec-
ond team singles.
1917—First: M. Thompson, M. Willard,
C. Stevens; second: R. Levy, T. Smith,
C. Wilcox; subs: E. Holcomb, M. Wil-
lett, M. Scattergood.
1918—First: M. Stair, L. Richardson,
Vv. Kneeland; second: E. Atherton, K.
Sharpless, E. Babbitt; subs: A. Shaffer,
A. Gest, M. Strauss.
1919—First: A. Thorndyke, R. Chad-
bourne, M. Peacock; second: B. Biddle,
M. Tyler, A. Stiles; subs: F. Branson, G.
Hearne, E. Carus.
1920—-First: M. S. Carey, Z. Boynton,
K. Cauldwell; second: P. Chase, M. M.
Carey, M. Hutchins; subs: N. Offutt, E.
Brace, F. Bonsoll.
The final match in the Freshmen tennis
tournament between Z. Boynton and K.
Cauldwell has never been played off be-
cause it was considered that Z. Boynton
would so certainly be winner; conse-
quently 1920's team has been picked more
from matches arranged by M. S. Carey,
their tennis representative, than from the
results of the tournament.
SENIORS TAKE-OFF QUARANTINE
Photo Drama-Freshman Stunt
1917’s amusing skit on quarantine regu-
lations and a spirited Freshman stunt
were the features of the Senior reception
on Saturday night.
1917's performance opened with a
screen-song addressed to the “pretty
babies” of the audience. The first act, a
take-off on’ registration under quarantine,
showed Freshmen going through “hot
air”, “hot oil’, “microscope”, and “cold
showers” and reappearing with the yel-
low ticket “purged”. The Freshmen, es-
pecially those impersonated by C. Hall in
brilliant orange, and E. Seelye in yellow
and purple, were recognized at once.
Their methods of smuggling merchandise
from the Pike, with the aid of '20’s nu-
merous M. Carey's, were the features of
the second act.
Pianist Wins Applause
“Love Lights, or Light Loves in a Lone
Lighthouse”, the Freshman moving pic-
ture, was the hit of the evening. Ger-
aldine Hess ’20, although she confided
to the audience that it was “no woman’s
job”, produced crashes, bell buoys and
raging storms from the quivering piano,
with the blasé skill of the professional.
The manoeuvres of villain, hero, and
heroine on the spiral staircase leading to
the light were the centre of amusement
in the heart-stirring stunt.
After the general dancing which fol-
lowed the Freshmen sang their class song
for the first time. “It was really remark-
able’, said the choir leader, in speaking
to a “News” reporter, ‘‘with what con-
certed smoothness and expression the
Class of 1920 sang, when one recalls that
they have been a class for less than a
fortnight”.
Freshman. Class Song
Triumphantly we stand pledging thee
Our deepest faith, Bryn Mawr,
Knowing thy lights ever our emblems are.
We would thy truth uphold,
Bound by one great ideal—
To serve thee, uphold thee and true worth
reveal.
Hail, Bryn Mawr we sing,
To thee our gifts we bring.
Of thy fine nobleness we would a part
possess,
Knowing that thou dost joyously give.
We would thy truth uphold, >
Fired by thy spirit’s splendor—
Take thou our offering of loyalty untold.
E. Brace.
Music: “Morning Praise”, from Gluck’s
“Orpheus and Eurydice”.
Freshman Cheer:
Canendi, Laudandi, et nobis amandi,
Bryn Mawr et viginti.

MOVIES TOUR THE CAMPUS
Six Reels Raise Roars
An improvised movie rehearsal in six
reels entitled “The Devil’s Revenge or
the Price She Paid’, was the Junior Com-
mittee’s first contribution this year to the
Endowment Fund. By making “one night
stands” the 1918 company visited every
Hall last Friday evening and cleared
about $25.
“The Devil's Revenge” depended on
old-fashioned melodrama and a would-be
modern director, for “laughs”. E.
Houghton, the “wizard king of the Soap-
stone Film Co.”, as camera man and di-
rector, kept up a steady flow of com-
ments,
S. Belleville, the ingenue heroine, and
R. Hart, the wayward hero, were plotted
against by P. Turle and J. Ridlon, vam-
pire and villain, but the winsome movie
child, F. Buffum, saved the day in the
sixth reel and the happy home was re-
stored.
The scenario was written by P. Turle,
the new member of the Junior Endow-
ment Fund Committee.
C. HALL, SENIOR PRESIDENT
The Seniors elected C. Hall, President;
G. Malone, Secretary, and re-elected A.
Wildman as Vice-President and Treasurer
on Monday.
Miss Hall, prepared at the Bryn Mawr
School, Baltimore, was Freshman chair-
man and president. Last spring she was
elected vice-president of Self-Government
and for two years has been on the Under-
graduate Advisory Board. She was stage
manager and had leading parts in Sopho-
more Play and Junior-Senior Supper Play.
She has been head of the Book Shop for
two years.
Miss Wildman was vice-president last
year and has been in the Book Shop for
two years. Miss Malone is chairman of
the Employment Bureau and _ business
manager of the Endowment Fund Com-
mittee and every year has been second
team captain for 1917's hockey,. basket-
ball and water-polo teams.
FRESHMEN 99% PURE
Like Ivory soap 1920 has ninety-nine
members, if not out of one hundred, at
least out of one hundred and five, pure A,
according to the authorized “Sports List”
of the Athletic Association. Two have
not had a medical examination, three non-
residents have not arrived, and there is
one poor, pitiable C.
Out of one hundred and five, however,
only fifty have been authorized as yet.
They will have to hurry to catch up with
1919, who have ninety authorized swim-
mers, while 1918 has sixty and 1917 sixty-
eight.
NEW HOCKEY PLANS
11 to Practice on Each Team—Students
to Coach
According to the new system worked
out for hockey practices, only eleven
players will report for practise on each
team. This will accustom the same play-
ers to working together, and will prevent
the usual change of line-up just before the
match games on account of players
dropped by the team above. The captains
are not to hunt up subs; in case anyone
cannot play she is responsible for. secur-
ing the person on the team below her who
plays the same position. 1918 has voted
a fine of 25 cents for failing to get subs
and 10 cents for lateness.
This does not mean, the captains say,
that the teams are picked already. If any
player, in practice on her own team or in
subing, is better than the person in her
position on the team above she will be
moved up.
Good coaching for third teams has also
been arranged for. The plan of the Ath-
letic Board is to have three hockey play-
ers, a Sophomore, a Junior; and a Senior
coach the third teams, each for one period
three times a week. N. McFaden "17 and
T. Howell '18 have been appointed.
The fourth, fifth and sixth teams will
practise from 3.30 to 4.15. :
Graduate practices are from twelve to
one on Monday, Wednesday and Friday.
A number of players has come out.
1918! COMPETITION
A “News” Competition begins at once
for an editor from the Class of 1918.
Those who wish to compete are to leave
their names with E. Granger, 35 Rocke
feller Hall. The competition will consist
in the writing of editorials and reporting
College events.

The Point of a Jest
In attaining the much desired Seniority,
1917 has also attained the much dreaded
Orals. No amount of dreading, fearing,
hating can save you, Orals must be
taken and passed or taken and failed, but
they must be taken. Sincé this is true,
why not take them in the best spirit pos-
sible? Thirty-one classes have met the
test and very few students have failed in
the end, but no class has ever shown a
healthy sense of humour in regard to
them. They have all moaned over the
campus, trailing lengthy word-lists behind
them, depressing every one by their dis-
heartened look and pessimistic talk. Of
course you must study, study hard, but
being gloomy and afraid will not help
you. Why not display a little originality,
1917, and start a new fashion in Oral-
taking? Be gay—at least now and then!
If, like Cyrano, you must die with the
point of a sword in your hearts, die also
like him, with the point of a jest on your
lips.
é
Politics
In such a political crisis as this Fall’s
presidential election we, students of Bryn
Mawr, should take our place in the fore-
front of national events. Let us rally to
the standards of our respective parties.
Though the president we elect may not
be the one our brothers chose, at least
the defeated candidate may have the com-
fort of our support. Let us bring out our
soap boxes from their neglected corners
and show our powers of persuasion. Let
us not be outdone by former generations
who, in the glow of torchlight proces-
sions, have impersonated to perfection the
ranting radical, the Republican elephant,
and the Democratic donkey.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
_ (The editors do nothold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)
Bryn Mawr College.
My Dear Ladies: I was very glad to
find your box when I returned from
Calais, and further up. I had seen so
many poor unfortunate women and chil-
dren, so many wounded and maimed sol-
diers, that I was very depressed and sad.
Your nice gift and the others I found
gave me courage to begin again my hard
work next morning. I have a central
depot in Paris and several up near the
front. Every month I go to the different
towns and villages, where I distribute the
clothes and food I receive from the kind
and good-hearted Americans like you.
You can not imagine what it means to me
(Belgian without any home, for one house
is destroyed and the other is occupied by
the enemy) to be helped like I am by you
all.
children without clothes, without food,
that often I don’t know what to do. The
atid food to save the little ones. I am
enclosing the photo of poor babies. If
you had seen them your heart would
break. They are all so miserable, so pale
and thin. Not one day since many
months have they had food enough;
their father is at the front and the
mother has work more than she can do,
to take care of the children. Some have
six, eight, ten children; they receive
twenty-five cents a day and ten cents for
each child.
If you know any good-hearted Ameri-
can who would help me in my work for
the relief of the women and children, do
beg a little from them.
What should we do without you? You
can not realize what war is—what awful
misery it brings. If you were not there
to help us I don’t think we could endure
what we suffer.
Let me ask you again, do have pity of
us—of our women, of our little ones.
God will bless you. Many thanks again
for your box.
Very gratefully,
Marie de Hemptinne.
{This letter is a reply to one of the
boxes sent last year by the College Red
Cross Committee.—Ed.]
‘
To the Editor of the “College News”:
I have often read in your columns ex-
hortations from interested members of
the Christian Association on the subject
of attendance at. Sunday evening service
and weekday Chapel. If the energies of
these members were directed towards
providing prayer books and hymn books
so that we can all join in the service,
many of us might be inspired to attend
regularly. To try to share a book with
four other girls, or to attend a service in
which only the front rows of the Chapel
can join is not conducive to personal wor-
ship. As Freshmen have to sit at the
back of the room it is not to be wondered
at that they quickly lose their interest in
College services. Some day, when the
minister announces with innocent sar-
casm, ‘Let us read responsively’’, or “Let
us all join in singing”, I hope they will,
as is their habit in lectures, all wave their
hands in the air and draw attention to
their needs.
Yours sincerely,
Chantecler.
To the Editor of the “College News”:
We wish to thank the undergraduates
for their help in the sale for the Endow-
ment Fund and particularly those in 1917
who acted as clerks.

GLEE CLUB TO GIVE “PATIENCE”
“Patience”, a “comic esthetic opera”
by Gilbert and Sullivan, satirizing Oscar
Wilde, will be given by the Glee Club on
the nights of March 30th and 3list. Men
may be invited by the students to either
performance.
As a result of the trials held last week
under the direction of S. Jelliffe ‘17,
Leader, the club now has a membership
of 56. Few good voices, with the excep-
tion of C. Eastwick "18, have been lost.
There are two new graduates, Miss Kit-
son and Miss Everett, and twenty new
Freshmen, besides four Seniors, six
Juniors, and twenty-four Sophomores not
members last year. The list is posted in
Taylor.
In order to avoid conflicts with water-
polo practises the Glee Club will meet
this winter on Tuesday instead of on
Thursday nights.
L. Evans "18 has been elected business
manager.

Wednesday.
Dean Schenck represented Bryn Mawr
at the 150th anniversary of Rutgers Col-
lege, New Brunswick, N. J., which was
celebrated last Saturday.
- H. Harris ’'17.has been elected a mem-
ber of the Undergraduate Advisory
Board. :
F. Iddings '17 has been elected by 1917
to the Junk and Sewing Committee of the

C., preached on “Adorning Our Religion”
in Chapel on Sunday night.
The series of magazine articles on
Hawaii, by Mrs. K. Fullerton Gerould,
former Reader in English at Bryn Mawr,
has been published in book form under
the title “Scenes and Impressions”. Mrs.
Gerould was sent last year by Scribner’s
to Hawaii as special contributor to their
magazine. ‘
The sun parlor of the infirmary has
been furnished. A new writing table,
centre table and easy chairs have been
bought this summer. The book shelves
are still empty, but a member of the Class

Dr. Fosdick’s book, “The Manhood of
the Master’, was the basis of M. Tyler’s
talk last Wednesday. E. Biddle ’19 will
continue the subject, taking for her spe-
cial topic “Righteous Indignation”. Room
F in Taylor seemed last week too formal
a place for the heated discussions that
usually follow the leader’s talk and which
are one of the most valuable features of
the meeting.

should not go to moving pictures or old
furniture shops in Bryn Mawr. Dean
Schenck, in speaking on Monday at
Chapel, warned students against going
on the trains and to the theatres.
ENDOWMENT FUND NETS
THREE HUNDRED DOLLARS
1915 Makes Shopping Easy
Dresses, canned goods, hats and hockey
sticks were displayed at 1915’s sale for
the benefit of the Endowment Fund in the
College tea room last Monday and Tues-
day. The tea room was given free for
the purpose from 9 a. m. to 10 p. m.
About three hundred dollars were cleared.
_ 1915 had induced the Philadelphia
stores to send out about a thousand dol-
lars’ worth of goods to be sold on com-
mission. In one room were tables with
groceries, canned goods, and home-made
candy and cakes that had been donated.
Gowns, hats, waists and smocks were on
sale, and also pictures, silverware, wool,
needles, alarm clocks and other neces-
saries. Spajding furnished athletic goods
to be sold on a 33% commission. The
wholesale house of VanSciver sent out
furniture and Hardwick & McGee rugs.
Both houses promised to give commis-
sions to 1915 on all articles bought this
year if the purchaser mentions the En-
dowment Fund.
K. McCollin managed the sale and M.
Richards (Mrs. K. Jessen), H. MacFar-
land, R. Ash, L. Branson and A. Kenyon
acted as clerks. Some of those who ar-
ranged for the sale were kept away by
the quarantine. They were M. Jacobs,
M. Justice, C. Sutch, M. Bradway, M. Lev-
inson and M. Morgan.

RED CROGS BEGINS WORK
‘The Red Cross re-commences its
weekly activities in the non-resident room
of Rockefeller on Thursday evening. Last
year surgical supplies were sent to
France, Belgium, Servia and other
countries at war. “This committee is
called ‘Red Cross’ for convenience’s
sake”, explained the chairman; “it is not
under the national organization”.
D. Chambers '19 was omitted from the
list of names on the committee last week,
and P. Turle '18, M. Mumford ’18, and F.
Day °19 have been added to the com-
mittee.
ARMENIAN DAY TO BE OBSERVED
“Situation in Turkey”, by Dr. Chambers,
Subject
Since President Wilson has appointed
October 21st and 22nd to be observed by
special contributions and prayer for the
Armenians and by special services in all
the churches, the Bible and Mission Study
Committee of the Christian Association
has secured Dr. W. Nesbitt Chambers, of
Adana, Turkey, to speak at College the
preceding Wednesday on the present situ-
ation in Turkey. The meeting will be
held at 7.30 in Room F, Taylor.
Dr. Chambers is the father of K. Cham-
bers ’11 (Mrs. L. H. Seelye) and of D.
Chambers ‘19, and preached at College
last year. He was forced to return to
America in 1915, because, being a British
subject, he was not allowed to remain in
Turkey on account of war conditions.
MOUNTAIN COMES TO MAHOMET
FOOD VENDERS ON THE CAMPUS
The cakes, crackers, fruit, and cinna-
mon buns denied the College by the quar-
antine were offered to all last Friday
when two Juniors played peddler for the
benefit of the Endowment Fund and sold
eatables outside of Taylor between
classes. A rushing business was done for
a short time, even the faculty joining in
asking, ‘‘How much can we get for fifteen
cents”? and “Can the Endowment Fund
be raised on crackers”?
