M. HUTCHINS,
FRESHMAN PRESIDENT
1920 elected their class officers last
Friday. M. Hutchins, who was Freshman
Chairman, was elected president; M. M.
Carey, vice-president and treasurer, and
P. Helmar, secretary.
CLEAR WEATHER ON
LANTERN NIGHT
Lantern Night was particularly effect-
ive this year because of the moonlight
and the fact of their being no wind. The
Sophomores trained by their song leader,
R. Reinhardt, and led by T. Haynes and
W. Robb, kept together perfectly, al-
though their slow singing made “Pallas
Athene” sound almost too measured and
mechanical.
The Freshmen, led by M. Hutchins and
L. Kellogg, are to be congratulated on
their sure start of “Over the Way”. The
pitch was kept until they were almost out
of the cloisters. H. Harris, S. Jelliffe,
and E. Emerson, 1917, swung lanterns for
the Sophomores and L. Richardson and
C. Dodge, 1918, helped: train the Fresh-
men. ,
DR. ROUSMANIERE TO SPEAK
Dean of Cathedral Church of St. Paul in
Boston
Dr. Edmund S. Rousmaniere, formerly
rector of St. Paul’s Church, Boston, now
dean of the Cathedral Church of St. Paul
in that city, will speak in Chapel Sunday
night. Dean Rousmaniere has preached
at Bryn Mawr for a number of years. He
has several times been chosen as the
Massachusetts deputy to the General Con-
vocation of the Episcopal Church and is
an active director of many charitable as-
sociations in Massachusetts and Rhode
Island.
ROUSING RALLY CLOSES CAMPAIGN
Torchlight Procession Around Campus
EVERY PARTY
The College presidential campaign
wound up the night before election day
with a rousing rally in the gymnasium
and a torchlight procession through the
campus. All four parties, Republican,
Democratic, Socialist, and Prohibitionist,
were represented.
Press Box Surveys Lively Scene
The Republicans and Prohibitionists
sat on the left and the Democrats and So-
cialists on the right of the gym with their
respective speakers facing them on either
side of the platform. Above in the gal-
lery the click of a busy Corona indicated
the press box full of “News” reporters.
Party feeling ran high and the mock po-
licemen were constantly subduing vio-
lent adherents of Wilson or Hughes. The
songs of both parties were drowned out
by shouts, but the Democrats managed to
get in the College cheer for Wilson.
Hughes’ Picture Falls on Platform
As Dr. Gray, the first speaker for the
Republicans, mounted the platform a pic-
ture of Hughes hanging above him was
torn down and the Democrats of the fac-
ulty shouted, “We want Wilson”. Roars
of Republican applause greeted Dr.
Gray’s living illustration of the weak
Mexican policy, the vengeful Villa imper-
sonated by Z. Boynton ’20. Dr. Gray did
not reply to hecklers who asked whom
he was voting for, but the rumor has been
verified that he is pro-Wilson.
The policy of high tariff and protection
was attacked by the first speaker for the
Democrats, H. Harris ‘17. Then, turning
to the Republican candidate, she said,
“Now I must come to Hughes”.
“Yes”, a Republican retorted, ‘the
whole country is coming to Hughes”.
After the applause died down, Miss Har-
ris, to the accompaniment of Democratic
cheers, named what she said Hughes
wishes to wipe out: the accomplishments
of the Democratic party.
The Full Dinner Pail
E. Houghton '18 answered H. Harris '17
with an attack on the present administra-
tion, while F. Buffum ’18, the last Demo-
cratic speaker, pointed to herself envel-
oped in a checked apron as an example
of the thriving child and an exponent of
the full dinner pail.
Dr. Leake, the faculty speaker for the
Democrats, emphasized the Progressives’
change in attitude. Roosevelt and Gifford
Pinchot, he said, are fighting to-day for
the things they condemned in 1912, the
things that Penrose, Barnes, and Smoot
represent. “Pussy-foot E-vasive Hughes”,
concluded Dr. Leake, “is a window cur-
tain behind which hide all the sinister
forces of evil’.
Prohibitionist Appeals to Audience
H. Huntting '19 took off the violent Pro-
hibitionist and appealed to the audience
for protection from her rowdy wife, M.
Thompson ‘17. M. Brent '20 spoke for
Socialism and M. Willett "17 was the third
Republican speaker.
Republican Elephants
Two real elephants, secured by the Re-
publicans, were the most startling feature
of the torchlight procession which fol-
lowed the rally. The Democrats had en-
gaged donkeys, but horses cleverly ca-
parisoned appeared instead. It is said by
some that one of the donkeys died and
REPRESENTED .»
the other one went insane. The proces-
sion led by a band started from Pembroke
Arch and marched down behind Radnor
and the gym and out on the Gulph Road,
and back in front of Dalton to the Arch.
The circuit was repeated several times,
gathering fresh recruits and more enthu-
siasm.
CAMPAIGN SPEAKING IN TAYLOR
Politicians Canvass College
Under the auspices of the Undergradu-
ate Association, three politicians, a Re-
publican, a Socialist and a Prohibitionist,
spoke in Taylor Saturday afternoon. Mr.
Westcott, the Democrat, who was to have
spoken, did not appear. Miss Shipley, in-
troducing the speakers, limited them to
twenty minutes each, and warned them
that she would ring a bell at the end of
fifteen minutes. Mr. Jones, the first
speaker, gave the record of the Republi-
can party and Mr. Hughes as the reason
for Mr. Hughes’ election. Mr. Nelson de-
scribed the aim of Socialism as the public
administration of the means of: produc-
tion and distribution. Mr. Dittman, who
spoke for the Prohibitionists, lamented
the control of the wet minority over the
dry majority in the Republican and Dem-
ocratic parties. ;
| M. S. CARY COLLEGE TENNIS
CHAMPION
|Wrests Cup from M. Thompson '17 in
Straight Sets
| In the play for the Individual Tennis
| Championship last Wednesday M. S. Cary
\'20 defeated M. Thompson ‘17, 6-4, 6-2.
‘The match was spiritless and from the
ibeginning there was little doubt as to the
| winner.
Near the end of the first set, however,
| Miss Thompson picked up to such an ex-
jtent that, with the score 5-0 against her,
she won four straight games before her |,
jopponent finally settled her. The second
iset was uninteresting, the principal
feature being Miss Cary’s quick net work.
|Miss Thompson has been College Cham-
| pion during two separate years, 1913 and
|1915, having lost in 1914 to M. Winsor
'ex-’18.
In the semi-finals of the championship
last Monday the evens came out ahead,
| Thorndike ’19 and M. S. Cary '20 beating
\M. Willard '17, 7-5, 6-4. In the finals on
Tuesday M. Stair lost to M. S. Cary in
a close and exciting match with the score
5-7, 6-1, 3-6.
/EMPLOYMENT BUREAU
GIVES PARTY
Dancing and Refreshments in the Gym
The Employment Bureau of the Chris-
tian Association gave a dance in the gym-
nasium last Saturday night. G. Malone
‘17 spoke on the work of the Employment
Bureau and plans for reorganizing it this
year on a more efficient basis. Fudge
and ice-cream cones were sold for the
benefit of the Endowment Fund and
music was furnished by the Sophomore
orchestra with H. Huntting as leader.
M. Stair ’18 winning 6-2, 6-3, from A. |.
BRYN MAWR CLEANS UP ON MERION
Visitors Show Strong Defence, But Weak
Line
GOOD TEAM PLAY MAKES SCORE
5 TO 0
To the tune of 5 to 0 Bryn Mawr Var-
sity whipped Merion last Saturday,
thereby gaining the third victory of the
season, with the credit again due to good
team play and fight, and with M. Peacock
"19 at fullback as the individual star.
Even Merion’s splendid defence and fast
center forward, Miss Townsend, could not
make up for the general weakness of the
visitors’ forward line.
Game Chiefly in Merion Territory
The game began with a rush down the
field toward the Merion goal and in
Merion territory the ball remained by far
the greatest part of the game. After a
prolonged struggle in the circle the Bryn
Mawr team shot the first goal. Some
brisk scrapping was followed by the
Merion center forward rushing the ball
into Bryn Mawr territory only to lose it
in the circle. Three corners in the
Merion circle came next and the second
goal was shot by M. Scattergood.
The third goal C. Stevens put in after
some good passing in the forward line
had brought the ball down. There was a
moment of suspense for Bryn Mawr be-
fore M. Peacock unerringly hit the ball
out of the home circle, to which two
rushes the length of the field had brought
it, and the first half came to an end on
the Merion 25-yard line.
Green Line Faster in Second Half
In the second half the Merion forward
line picked up a little and carried the ball
down toward the Bryn Mawr goal, but the
rally ended in a bully in Bryn Mawr ter-
ritory. Scrapping near Merion’s goat fol-
lowed until M. Willard with a clean shot
put in the fourth goal.
Soon afterwards C. Stevens made the °
fifth goal. From the bully Merion took
the ball down, but F. Curtin, goalkeeper,
made a good stop and kept the visitors
from scoring. Bryn Mawr regained the
ball and the fight was in Merion territory
when the whistle blew. Merion, 0; Bryn
Mawr, 5.

Journalists Come Out for Wilson
An interesting comparison of the names
in the group of authors and artists who
have signed a manifesto in favor of Mr.
Hughes with those who signed the pro-
Wilson manifesto was made recently in
an editorial in the New York “Evening
Post”. “It appears”, says the editorial in
part, “that those who in their work have
stood in closer touch with the practical
life of the nation are for Wilson, while
the supporters of Hughes are much more
emphatically of the ‘literary’ type. The
journalists are for Wilson. The belles-
lettres practitioners are for Hughes”.
Another surprising result is Princeton,
Wilson's alma mater, voting for Mr.
Hughes and the University of Pennsyl-
vania, most Republican of colleges, voting
for Wilson.

Politics Interesting at Last
The political meeting Monday night
was a success in every way. ‘The effi-
ciency with which it was managed, the
spirit of the speakers, and the really good
and sometimes even clever heckling all
gave evidence that the College for once in
its life was completely awake to an issue
outside its own sphere. Indeed, the great-
est success lies in the fact that the meet-
ing shamed everyone into finding out
more or less carefully the real state of
the country.
To the enthusiasm and energy of the
president of the Undergraduate Associa-
tion and to the party chairmen, appointed
by her, is due the credit for this success.
Although the meeting came when quizzes
have begun and work is beginning to pile
up, its success is proof that. the College
can be roused, even if it takes a presi-
dential election to do it. Would not more
frequent political meetings, perhaps not
so elaborate, but still treating important
political crises, keep alive the interest in
national politics thoroughly
aroused and widen the College world that
we complain is so small?

Something New
What the vital changes made in the
Constitution of the Christian Association
last March were, perhaps few people out-
side the Board and the Cabinet now re-
member, for after a few weeks of turmoil
the inner workings of the Association’
straightened out, and there is usually
little discussion of satisfactory arrange-
ments. But new problems are still aris-
ing to test the real soundness of the new
Constitution. For instance, this week
sees the canvassing of the Graduate stu-
dents and the Freshman Class by a Grad-
uate and a Freshman, who have chosen
their assistants with the help of the
Senior, Junior and Sophomore executives
of the Membership Committee. Whether
this plan will succeed or fail, whether it
is best to put off the canvassing this late,
whether the membership will be larger or
smaller as a result, one cannot tell until
the special Membership Vespers to be
held Sunday. But at least there is a
stimulus in trying something new, and ex-
perience is the only teacher.
The Bryn Mawr Gown
In these reactionary times when edi-
torials in “Tipyn o' Bob" plead in pol-
ished periods for the gown and classes
vote sternly for its daily use, it is inter-
esting to read the-enthusiastic-annals-of |.
the past. Old “Lanterns” sing peeans to
the gown and a “Fortnightly Philistine”
of 1902 observes naively that “the gown
is now as familiar on the pike as on the
campus”. An article in the same, number
gives the following history:
“There were once only two gowns in
Bryn Mawr. These gowns, brought from
England by the Class of '$y, were Oxford
undergraduate gowns, gowns like ours,
but reaching only to the knee. These
gowns were so much admired that the
first students at Bryn Mawr decided to
adopt the cap and gown of the Oxford un-
dergraduate for the regular academic
dress. By some fortunate mistake the
first gowns ordered were those not of the
undergraduate, but of the scholar, and to
this day the mistake is perpetuated and
the Bryn Mawr undergraduate wears a
long, graceful gown and not a bobtail’’.
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
(The editors do not hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)
To the Editors of the “College News”:
We should like to take advantage of
this opportunity to express our feelings
towards the conduct in Chapel last Sun-
day night. As members of the Choir we
have practically the same view of Chapel
as the speaker. It is with regret, there-
fore, and chagrin that we see such a flip-
pant attitude and lack of self-control
among the student congregation during
the sermon. It seems unnecessary to in-
flict on the minister and on those inter-
ested in his talk, amusement over per-
sonal jokes. Common courtesy and a
sense of the fitness of things seem to call
for attention and respect.

“LITERARY DIGEST” PRAISES
POEM BY DR. CARPENTER
“Who Knows Not Circe’? a poem by
Rhys Carpenter, Ph.D., Associate Pro-
fessor of Classical Archeology at Bryn
Mawr, is published in the “Literary Di-
gest” for October 28, 1916. The magazine
may be found in the Magazine Room of
the Library, south wing.
The “Digest”, after some preliminary
remarks concerning the great American
poets, notably Lowell, who were in the
habit of reading their poems at meetings
of Phi Beta Kappa, refers directly to Dr.
Carpenter's poem. “Perhaps’’, writes the
reviewer, “a return to the days when the
name of this society of scholars was asso-
ciated with creative literature is indi-
cated by the fact that a poem of distinc-
tion was read at the anniversary meeting
of the New York Delta of Phi Beta Kappa
last June’. The poem is quoted from the
September issue of the Columbia Univer-
sity “Quarterly”.
Besides “Who Knows Not Circe”? Dr.
Carpenter is the author of “The Sun
Thief”, a volume of lyrics published in
1914.
CURRENT EVENTS OPEN TO ALL
A current events class open to all stu-
dents in College will start next Monday,
November 13th. Dr. Gray, Professor of
History, will conduct the class, which will
meet weekly in Room D, Taylor, at 7.25
p. m.
The class will be informal and will not
count as academic work. Different topics
will be discussed each time, taken from
events happening here or abroad.

MATCH GAMES ALREADY BEGUN
_ Grads Play Sophomores and Freshmen
Contrary to expectations hockey match
games really began a week ago last Satur-
day when the grads played 1919’s fourth
team and lost 4 to 0. The series was
continued last Saturday, against 1920’s
third team who won 5 to 2. All the usual
formalities attended the first of these
snappy contests for both sides had ad-
herents singing and rooting on the side
lines. In the second game improved
team play and hard hitting netted the
graduates two goals in place of their
first zero.

NEW BOOKS IN THE LIBRARY
“The Art Work of Louis C. Tiffany”
The New Book Room of the Library

an autograph copy of his work. It was
published for private circulation, and is
the record of Mr. Tiffany’s achievements

ing, stained glass and favrile glass, which
is an exclusive product of the Tiffany fac-
tory. Favrile glass is known as Tiffany
glass; it is made from the waste products
of stained glass. There are also chapters

decoration. The book is profusely illus-
trated with reproductions and photo-
graphs in color. There is a photograph

The two elephants, pride of the Repub-
lican party in the torchlight parade the
night before elections, were again the
center of interest on the upper hockey
field Tuesday afternoon. The trainers
put them through all sorts of tricks to the
delight of a large audience. When the
show was over scores of people went for
rides.
ELECTION RETURNS FLASHED;
“NEWS” BULLETIN ON LIBRARY
By arrangement with the Western Union
Telegraph and the authorities of the Col-
lege the “News” received the returns
from the presidential election Tuesday
night and the Halls were kept open till
midnight. The “News” election bulletin
was hung above the Library portico and
returns from the straw vote at College
were also flashed there early in the even-
ing.
THE WORLD ASLEEP
Dr. Lubeck Says It Needs Awakening
Quoting Joubert, Dr. Henry Lubeck, of
Zion and St. Timothy's, New York City,
who preached in Chapel last Sunday
night, said, “How many people eat and
drink and get married, buy and sell,
build and make contracts . . . live
and die asleep.” The dishonest, the un-
believing, the indifferent and the abject
men are asleep, he said, and the material-
ist. “All forms of idealism have suffered
during the past century more from being
ignored than from being refuted”, he
added. The Apostles, the Friars, the
Reformation, the Methodist Movement
and the Oxford Movement in turn have
awakened the world; but now it is asleep
again and it is for us who have great op-
portunities, by great works like Horace
Mann’s, Canon Barnett’s and Jane Ad-
dams’, to awaken it again.

Swim, and Plunge. They showed very
promising material, but M. S. Cary was
the only one to make First Class in all
the events. The details of the events
