ORALS MAY BE ABOLISHED
: Faculty Tekes Action
FINAL DECISION IN ABEYANCE



The substitution of written examina-
‘tions in French and German for the his-
toric senior orals has been passed by a
vote of the faculty, but the matter as a
whole is now in the hands of a faculty
committee which is considering ways and
means. The committee will make its re-
port at the faculty meeting on Thursday,
May 17th, after which the decision will
go before the directors.



The faculty’s action apparently does
not effect the seven seniors left to take
the fourth oral next Saturday morning,
six in German and two in French. An-
other red class, 1913, was the last which
failed to roll its hoops.

MORE GRADUATE
FELLOWSHIPS ANNOUNCED

Additional Senior Gets “Cum Laude”



TECHNICAL ERROR RECTIFIED



In addition to the fellowships made
public last month President Thomas an-
nounced in chapel May Day eleven more
resident graduate fellowships for the
year 1917-1918. The award of a Special
Simpson Scholarship to E. M. Rosenberg

18, President Thomas said, in announcing |
the undergraduate prizes, could not be)
made because the scholarship had been |
allowed to lapse and the money had to)

go to the Loan Fund, but another schol-
arship. would undoubtedly be found to
take its place.

The list of seniors receiving their de- |
grees “cum laude” was read again with |

the addition of Jeannetta Jameson. Miss
Jameson, in the year before degrees were
given with special honors, was mista-
kenly advised to take a technical condi-
tion in a course instead of risking the
mark of failure. As a technical condition
means the permanent mark of zero, her
average was lowered to just below the
“cum laude” point until the error was
rectified.

The Association stands pledged to con-

such work is a national service of even

THE FOUNDING OF BRYN MAWR



Bryn Mawr’s Quaker foundation has
not prevented its being from the first
a non-sectarian institution. Its pur-
pose as conceived by its founder, Dr.
Joseph W. Taylor, was to extend “to
young women the opportunities for a
college education so freely offered to
young men”. Dr. Taylor intended at
first that Bryn Mawr should be a sis-
ter college to Haverford, using the
same professors and library.

Among the few provisions favoring
the Society of Friends are three com-
petitive entrance scholarships open to
Friends only, the restriction that
Friends alone shall compose the Board
of Trustees, and the Founder’s Lec-
ture given each year on the priniciples
of the Quaker belief.

‘SPEECH ON FAITH OF FOUNDER
Prof. Jones Explains Quaker Ideals

| PREFER PRISON TO ARMY



Recalling the suffering of Quakers—in
| time of war, Professor Rufus M. Jones,
| who delivered the annual Founder's Lec-
| ture Wednesday evening in Taylor, rep-
resented the ideals by which the Friend
is guided. His principle, Dr. Jones said,
is to reject all good for a possible better.
Rather than give up the ideal of peace,
many when confronted with conscription
go to prison.

In England, Dr. Jones explained after-
wards, the law provides for the exemp-
tion of conscientious objectors; yet out
of 30,000 the courts would admit only six
ito be conscientious.

Quaker Not Metaphysical

The Quaker’s forms without his ex-
perience Dr. Jones compared to the phe-
nomenon of the “Cheshire Cat’, a grin
without a face. The Friend, he said, puts
a high premium on what William James
calls “inwardness”. For this reason he
| takes slight interest in metaphysics, such
as occupied the 14th and 15th centuries.
“Whatever your mind comes at, I tell
| you flat, God is not that’, he quoted, as
| a sample of the jingling philosophy which
ithe Quaker escaped.

Dr. Jones is Professor of Philosophy
Psychology at Haverford, and is

{and

| widely. known throughout the country as,

the greatest living authority on mzysti-
|cism. Many of his books are in the
‘library, among them “Social Law in the

and “Studies in Mystical Religion”. He

STUDENTS TO REPLACE



May Day Given for War Relief



coéperate in the economies which must
be practised next year was the central
problem of the conference between Pres-
ident Thomas and the Undergraduate Ad-
visory Board last Monday week. The
question of May Day came up and the
general feeling seemed to be that if en
ithusiasm for this Bryn Mawr institution
continued it might be given as usual next
year with the proceeds going to war
relief.

| That students should replace the men
‘employed on the campus and might also
| possibly work in the halls was suggested
by the Advisory Board to cut down ex-
penses. Such work could be either volun-





/teered or in the case of students who, on-

account of the war, needed financial help
to return to college it could be paid. Presi-
dent. Thomas pointed out that yp
one or two men could be given up
this means, but Miss Martha Thomas felt
that forthe undergraduates to take the
maids’ places would only lower the col-
lege standards both of scholarship and of
living.

As one saving measure which
lready gone into effect Miss M. Thomas
advised that the students tell their war-
dens whenever they are going to be away
for a meal, so that preparation can he
made proportionately. Every care must
be taken, it was urged, to waste no food.

Under Martial Law

The prospect of a_ $50 emergency
charge for each student brings forcibly to
mind the need for stringent economy if
the college is to go on next year. We
suggest that students with special train-
ing gained in preparedness courses this
spring give their spare time to helping
in the upkeep of the college. Those who
have had first aid and home care of the
sick might volunteer in two-hour shifts
as infirmary assistants to reduce. the
number of nurses. Members of the busi-
ness classes could be of use in the Li-
brary or Taylor. That the mechanics’
reserve be called out to man the power
house or to drive trucks to and from the
Yet_as
chauffeurs for the gasoline lawnmower

station_is perhaps more doubtful,

even skilled Italian labor would have to
give way!

The crisis demands a system which will
utilize all available ability and insure the
putting fffeeugh of routine work on sched-
ule time. It would be possible to accom-
plish this by means of a military régime.

Kvery student reporting for three hours
a week of fatigue duty (which might in-
clude housework as well as grounds and
office-work) would mean a total of 1200
hours a week; or, reckoning the labor,
skilled and unskilled, at an- average of

_ twenty-five cents an hour, a saving of

$300 per week to the college.

War is striking home to the college this
week in the ending of Dr. Grey’s current
events class. The Officers’ Training Camp
rudely puts a stop to what has become
one of the most popular institutions of
the year. Dr. Grey has done much to
keep the college in contact with outside
affairs in a winter when events have
crowded so fast that without his clear
explanations one almost gives up trying
to cope with them. The hundred or more
students who have attended the class
weekly will miss it on Monday evenings.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

for opinions expressed in this column)
Help Devastated France

To the Editor of the “College. News”:

In response to an urgent appeal to
Bryn Mawr for clothing of all kinds for
the people in Noyon and other French
towns recently evacuated by the Ger-

mans, the Junk Committee is organizing a

special “French Bundle Week” from May
10-17.

May we appeal through your columns
to every reader of the “News” to give
some old clothes. We need 2000 articles.
As this amount cannot be gathered by
the junk collectors alone we are asking
everyone to collect their own junk and
take it to the nearest receiving station.
The bundles will be taken every day to

the gymnasium and boxes packed as soon |

as possible.

ROMANCE OF THE: FUTURE
_ A CRYSTAL AGE”

Leena ies cages —_—-



| A Naw Book and an Old One in the New

Book Room

“It belongs to the rare type of fiction
which has given us Gulliver and Ere-
whon”, says the foreword to “A Crystal

ge”, by W. H. Hudson. Written thirty
years ago by an author only recently ap-
preciated, it now takes rank in the New
Book Room as a new book along side of
the freshly published “Renascence of
France”, by Charles Sarolea, which cele-
brates the'rebirth of the Gallic’ spirit to
meet the crisis of the Great War.

Galsworthy has said that “as a stylist
Iiudson has few if any living equals” and
“\ Crystal Age” in Mr. Hudson’s rhyth-
mic prose tells the story of a second Rip
Van Winkle who wakes to find himself in
a Utopian world where he is sadly out
of place.

The coming of France’s new life is
traced in Mr. Sarolea’s book through a
series of historical sketches of great
French men and women from Montaigne
and Madame de Maintenon to Bergson
and Poincaré. “The New France” is the
last chapter and the last words are “The
French Ideals are themselves universal
because they appeal to the whole of civ-
ilized humanity, because they partake of
he eternal verities”.

Brilliant Record in Water-Polo

The new President, T. Howell "18, has

been in turn Treasurer and Secretary of

the association. She won her B.M. in
water-polo and basket-ball and was last
year awarded a yellow tie for excellence
in athletics and_ particularly in water-
polo. In this sport, according to Miss
Applebee, she is the most remarkable
player that has ever come to college.
She has been class captain for three sea-
sons and last year her class captured the
championship.

It was T. Howell's team. that as fresh-
men played the historic series of six
games with 1917 to decide the class pre-
liminaries. The sophomores were vic-
torious after a contest which included
two tied matches. By a curious coinci-
dence each team scored exactly nineteen
goals during the series.

Committee for May 10-17. In Noyon, a
town recently evacuated by the Ger- |
mans, there is now actually but one gar- |
ment to each person. The greatest need |
is for_sweaters, coats, shoes, underclothes,_
dresses, blouses, and material to make

sium; sub-stations, College Inn, Cartref,
Low Buildings, Dalton, Yarrow East and |

According to the “New York Times” |
the conditions in Noyon are terrible. |
“For 17 months these people were forced |
to live only on black bread and rice, |
withoitt meat of any kind. They had no |
clothing except what they wore. Ina}
large orphan asylum near Noyon children |
and people from the city have slept in!
the same clothes, without mattresses, pil- |
lows, or coverings, since last December, |
The Germans did not allow them to go
out and wash. When they were found |
by the American relief workers, they
were in an indescribable condition of |
filth, Even those who died sometimes |
had to be kept for five days in the rooms
with the living before the Germans would
permit their removal”.

Blues Open Strong



With former side-centers, S. Jelliffe °17
and M. Mackenzie '18 playing guard, ow
ing to the new men’s rules, the first
basket-ball game of the season came off
last Monday, 1917’s first team defeating
1918's 14 to 12. Both sides fought hard,
» fouling seldom and getting in some good
passing.

At the beginning of the first half H.
Harris "17 made a quick goal followed al-
most immediately by one from S. Belville
‘18, who was replaced in the last five
minutes. of play by E. Houghton ‘18. The
half-ended with the score tied, 8 to &.

Fast dribbling by L. Brown '17 and neat
stops by T. Howell '18 marked the sec-
and half. A clever formation by which
Cc. Stevens, forward, shot from the ex-
treme right, receiving the ball from the
center, would have netted several goals
to the seniors but for the death grip of

M. Mackenzie, guard, who blocked shot
after shot.

THREE IN ONE
- Politics on the Athletic





A deadlock had ensued in the hotly
contested question of awarding B. M.’s
in water-polo. The Chairman felt strongly
on the subject but the rest of the Board
was divided. ‘Let the four Varsity cap-
tains decide it’, suggested a diplomatic
member of the Board known to oppose
the Chair in the issue at hand. M.
Thompson ‘17, ex-president of, the Ath-
letic Association and Chairman of the
Athletic Board at the time of this meet-
ing, agreed with a slow smile.

“You see’, she confessed later,
three of the Varsity captains myself”.

“Tm



The rest of Miss Thompson’s athletic
record is as extraordinary as the fact that
she was captain of Varsity hockey, ten-
nis, and basket-ball. this year. One of
the few players to win a yellow tie in her
freshman year, she .possesses, to quote
Miss Applebee, “enough B. M.’s to make
a toga”.

She has been class captain in hockey
for four seasons, and is captain of 1917’s
basket-ball team this spring. In her
freshman and junior year she won the
tennis cup. As secretary in 1915-1916 she
was first elected to the Athletic , Board.
By no means the least of her achieve-
ments is the fact that the Varsity hockey
team, captained by her, has to its credit
an undefeated season for the first time
since Varsity hockey began at Bryn
Mawr in the fall of 1902.
