FRESHMAN DANCING MOST
ARTISTIC OF FESTIVAL

Exposition Lighting Floods Cloisters
$135 FOR ENDOWMENT FUND

The exquisite grace and precision of H.
Zinsser ’20 in her Egyptian dance was the
most artistic achievement of the cloister
festival given by Miss Kirk’s 5.30 dancing
classes last Friday evening. Flood light-
ing, the latest form of exterior lighting,
first used at the San Francisco Exposi-
tion, illuminated the cloisters. At the
end, the powerful rays were turned on the
flag flying from the Library tower while
performers and spectators sang the ‘Star
Spangled Banner”. $135 was taken in
for the Endowment Fund.

More conventional than the Egyptian
dance, composed and executed by H.
Zinsser and Z. Boynton '20, were the
“Pipes o’ Pan”, the two solos by L. Chase
17, and the “Blue Danube” and Scarf
Dance of A. Preston ex-’14, a graduate of
the Newman School of Dancing in Phila-
delphia and now Physical Director of
Temple University. The incense from the
lamp of the Egyptian votary, H. Zinsser,
gave a distinctive touch to the freshmen’s
dance. Miss Zinsser’s dancing was as
light and spontaneous as it was at Fresh-
man Show.

Folk-dancing was represented in the
sophomore jigs and in the ‘Merry Mak-
ers” and Irish dance of the Model School
children. The Rose and Storm ballet, in
which L. Chase ’17 danced the “Spirit of
Spring”, brought the festival to a close.

The flood lighting units, arranged in
the cloister by Dr. Ferree and Miss Rand,
were loaned to the Psychology Depart-
ment by the National X-Ray Reflector
Company of Chicago. Flood lighting is
used to illumine the Statue of Liberty and
the Singer Building in New York, the
Philadelphia City Hall, and the Sheeps-
head Bay race-track for night racing.



HALF HOLIDAY GRANTED
TO SEE FRENCH ENVOYS
College Contingent Arrives Late

College closed at eleven o'clock last
Wednesday and a runner from the Office
announced to those who had not already
cut their classes to see Joffre that by tak-
ing the next train they could reach Frank-
lin Field in time. Accordingly about a
hundred students in addition to Miss
Dimon, Miss Donnelly, and President
Thomas hurried in to West Philadelphia,





provided with tickets by the college, only |
to find that Marechal Joffre, Viviani, the |

“blue devil’,
had just left.

The train bearing the hero of the
Marne to Philadelphia passed through
Bryn Mawr without stopping at 8.30 a. m.

and the entire French party

|.their hoops on Saturday morning. Though-

wednesday and the cheering crowd at the |

station followed him on the 8.40.
dents on this train saw the envoys at City
Hall, at some point on Chestnut Street,
or in the dense crowd at Independence
Square, where the French party visited
Independence Hall and the building of the
first Congress.

A banquet in the ballroom of
Bellevue-Stratford completed the Phila-
delphia program and here in the crowded
balcony were found the more persistent
of the Bryn Mawr contingent which had
failed to see Joffre at Franklin Field.
Their methods of gaining entrance varied
from muttering a few words in French
to the more strenuous use of force. The
envoys left for New York on the two

o'clock train.

GABRILOWITSCH DUE FRIDAY



RUSSIAN PIANIST TO PLAY FOR 1912

Gabrilowitsch Not a Spy

Ossip Gabrilowitsch, the brilliant Rus-
sian pianist, has been secured by 1912 to
play in the Cleisters next Friday after-



noon at 4 p. m. for their Endowment
Fund. He is greatly interested in the his-
torical development of music and will

play a program representing three differ-
ent periods, with numbers from Bach,
Chopin, and Tschaikowsky.

Mr. Gabrilowitsch is not a spy although
he has been a suspect. At the outbreak
of the war he and his wife (Clara Clem-
ens the contralto, a daughter of Mark
Twain) were arrested as spies and sent
out of Germany with the request not to
return until after the war.

Tickets may be obtained from. Miss
Mary Peirce of Haverford; reserved
seats, $1.50; admission, $1.00. Members

of the college may secure reserved seats

RED CLASS BREAKS SPELL



Seniors Roll Hoops

Overcoming the sinister omen of
1913's fate at the fourth oral, 1917 rolled

it was the last red class that last failed
the orals, the seven seniors of this year
whose degrees were at stake all passed.
F. Curtin passed German and failed
French, but is coming back for one sem-
ester next year and will have three more
chances.

Two seniors were called back three and
four times for German, and excitement
mounted in the crowd waiting outside of
Taylor. At last, from a window of the
chapel, President Thomas announced
1917’s success and congratulated the
class.

The seniors taking the oral were:
French, M. Cline, H. Zimmerman, F. Cur-
tin; German, E. Russell, G. McMillan, H.
Zimmerman, M. Worley, G. Malone, I.
Diamond, F. Curtin



ORGANIZER OF BASE HOSPITAL
SPEAKS TO-MORROW IN CHAPEL



Dr. J. Norman Henry, a director of
the Pennsylvania Hospital and the or-
ganizer of the Jefferson Base Hospital
‘No. 38, recently given to the Govern-
ment by his sister-in-law, Mrs. Gibson,
will speak in chapel to-morrow morn-
ing on the work of base hospitals and
particularly of nurses’ aides. Dr.
Henry and Mrs. Gibson are anxious to
have Bryn Mawr students enroll as
aides to Hospital No. 38. E. Granger
"17 has already. volunteered.



A base hospital is situated some
thirty or forty miles behind the firing
line and may or may not be under can-
vas. Buildings are occupied whenever
possible and tents when no buildings
are to be found.







SENIORS TO GIVE
ORIGINAL PLAYS

C. Wilcox and M. O’Shea Authors

Two original plays, written by members
of the class, will be staged next Satur-
day by 1917 instead of the customary
Senior Play. “On the Mantelpiece”, a
fantasy by Constance Wilcox, and “The
Rush Light”, by Monica O’Shea, are the
plays, both written in Dr. Savage’s Tech-
nique of the Drama. Helen Harris





is

production.
In the interests of the preparedness
work the plays are being given with

half the usual rehearsing, and worked up
at a minimum of expense.



1917 WINS IN FIRST TEAM FRAY



Rally in Second Half Decides
Opening Match of Finals

the first team match last Monday put the
opening game of the basket-ball finals
safely in the hands of 1917. The senior
first team has three straight victories to
its credit and unless the sophomores come
back hard to-morrow will win the cham-
pionship without a defeat.

On both teams the score mounted
evenly at first and the game was almost
a draw at the end of the first period: 1917,
12; 1919, 11. In the second half, how-
ever, 1917 showed its strength. C.
Stevens’ unerring aim and M. Thompson’s
notable work at guard combined with su-
| perior team play, increased the senior to-
| tal by eight points. 1919 scored once on
| a free throw and the game ended: 1917,



| 20; 1919, 12. Field goals decided the re-
sult as both teams scored exactly four
| points on fouls.

FIVE HUNDRED BED
BASE a os inane
Roosevelt Offers to Enroll It
MAY TAKE AIDES FROM 1917

A five-hundred bed hospital unit, now
being organized for foreign service under
the name of the Jefferson Base Hospital,
No. 38, has been given to the American
Government by Mrs, Adeline Vepper Gib-
son, hearer at Bryn Mawr, and by her
brother, Mr. Henry C. Gibson. ‘Mrs. Gib-
son’s project was put through by her
brother-in-law, Dr. J. Norman ‘Henry, a
director of the Pennsylvania Hospital, to
whom the $50,000 gift was entrusted.

The twenty-five nurses’ aides required
will be enrolled, it is hoped, largely from’
the present senior class. Bryn Mawr
students, Mrs. Gibson is convinced, with
the preliminary training démanded, will’
do better war relief work than the profes-
sional trained nurse. They will be more
adaptable, she believes, and quicker to
meet every situation. The qualifications
necessary for a nurse's aide are the
course in Home Care of the Sick, now be-
ing given at Bryn Mawr in connection
with preparedness, and a six weeks’
course in surgical nursing which will be
;given free this summer by the Jefferson
Hospital in Philadelphia.

Getting It Across

Saturday night, for the first time in its
history, Bryn Mawr will have a recog-
nized dramatic performance played, pro-
duced, and written by its students. The
shows, it is true, have always been
largely spontaneous, but until this year
no original work has been attempted in
the field of the “legitimate”. It has re-
mained for 1917 to give as their last per-
formance two one-act plays written by
two members of the class.

The plays that are being offered were
done in connection with the course in
Technique of the Drama inaugurated this
fall by Dr. Savage. Whether they will
prove as satisfactory to audiences as the
older plays by tested dramatists remains
to be seen, but in any case the experi-
ment indicates that Bryn Mawr is enter-
ing into the field of drama in the practical
way that has been found so profitable at
Harvard, Radcliffe, Barnard, the Univer-
sity of Pennsylvania, and other colleges.

The senior class is to be congratulated
upon having both the opportunity and the
initiative.







The Pen Mightier Than the Hoe?

Despite the fact that we are an agri-
cultural community and take up the hoe
on Saturdays, we revert on week-days to
the fountain-pen and matters academic
with an ignorance which is true bliss in
regard to the struggles of the Business
Office to create a lawn between Pem-
broke and the Library.

The tradition that the first thing Adam
planted in the Garden of Eden was his
foot must not deceive us. This patri-
archal experiment in agriculture did not
yield a good crop. Time has not changed
the principle. The Ground-Gripper, nay
even the French heel, still fails to im-
prove the newly seeded lawn. A palisade
has had to be built about the Bryn Mawr
Garden of Eden elect. Daughters of Eve,
daughters of Pallas, are you not able to
show that even on week-days you have
some little insight into the principles of
agriculture?

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR

(The editors do not hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)

To the Bditor of the College News:

erevracey Commasiiigha @e iuxe -Cimnseaia
The Gorham Press has just published

Helen Williston Brown ’06, whose muse
_| attended her through Rosemary, Bryn
;|Mawr, and the medical school of Johns
Hopkins into a world of suffrage and
feminism. That is no doubt an unusual
career for a muse, and insures an inter-
est for the book. For one knows that in
the inevitable mirror of self-expression,
even where there is not art, there is hon-
esty. In Mrs. Brown’s verse one may
easily forgive a technique still undevel-
oped, and an art not over true, for the
sake of following an autobiography more
interesting and more informing than the
prose record of dates and events which
the usual chronicle-of-self supplies.

The best part of a book review comes
in quotation marks. Mrs. Brown ar-
ranges the collection under the headings,
“At Rosemary”, “At Bryn Mawr”, “At
Johns Hopkins Medical School”, and
“Post Hoc” (to which without unkindness
one may supply the “Ergo Propter Hoc”
of the schoolmen); but much of the
charm of the book lies in the superfluous
information. The reader of the College
News may test this for herself in the
following:

“The coloured lady with rheumatic pains
Of ten years’ standing and an endless row
Of ugly babies, patched with eczema.
Coffee and cabbage and a taste of beer,
As like as not will prove to be their fare.
The little boy with the infected knee,
How his face haunts you!

So it goes”.

or in this from the verses “To Dr.-Anna
Howard Shaw” :—

“Till that time shall come when man

May prove his chivalry, and give

The symbol of their freedom,

To the women who have hoped for it so
long”.

One may easily guess the scene for the
lines:

“

on the gray stone walls the
ivy buds
Shimmer and grow”,

and with more difficulty the setting for
the poem called “Hero-Worship”:—

I listened for his step upon the stairs,—

Then when at last he came,

And I could hear him in the dingy hall

With rattling keys unlock his office door,

The library wherein I toiled

O’er chemistry in German,

Suddenly appeared a more attractive spot.

And as I read I heard his footsteps

Come and go along the passage way,

Or in the laboratory, and I knew

From long and close attention,

Just what he was at,—

Combustions maybe or a melting point,—

And I was quite content in knowing he
was there”.

the part of 1918’s forwards marked the
last first team basket-ball game between
the juniors and seniors on Thursday.

again and again failed to profit by the
chance to gain a point. The odd classes

The Athletic Board is arranging to have
the marking and rolling of the athletic
fields done entirely by the students at
twenty-five cents an hour. The work is
all to be handled during the morning by
gangs under the direction of the Board.
One hour of work may be counted as one
period of exercise, provided the work
done and the time of doing it is regis-
tered.

It is hoped that by this plan the Ath- | M-

letic Association will save money since
the students, according to the Board, will
work more quickly and at lower rates
than the labor formerly hired from the
college at twenty-seven cents an hour.

BATES MANAGEMENT CHANGES



More Workers Than Money Needed



With I. Bering '14 at the head of Bates
House in place of Miss Virginia Deems,

rand Miss E. Meredith as housekeeper

instead of Miss Murphy, Bates House will

da|run this summer under a new regime.

Miss Meredith is now the housekeeper of
Merion.

The sum of $1,100 has been pledged,
and for the most part collected, to run
the house over the summer. “The money,
but not the workers, are supplied”, said
a member of the committee. “There
must be more volunteers for next sum-
mer”. A paid assistant for all summer
is also needed. This position is usually
filled by an undergraduate, and pays a
salary of $50.

Applications for this position are made
through I. Loeb, Rockefeller; for volun-
teer work to M. Littell, Denbigh.

‘Those who saw in the pictorial section, i

of the Sunday Ledger a photogravure of
M. Viviani standing by the statue of
Jeanne d’Arc with his hand clapped to his
eye were deceived if they believed the in-
scription underneath, to the effect that
the French minister had been moved to
tears by the ceremonies. The News has
reliable information that this was not the
cause of his piteous attitude. In -fact,
just before the picture was taken, a tri-
color bouquet hurled by a young Bryn
Mawr enthusiast at Marechal Joffre had
hit his colleague in the eye, causing great
activity among the .secret service men
who seemed about to make preparations
to jail the offender on a charge of bomb-
throwing.

Three acres of potatoes, ten rows of
_ beans, five rows of peas, and lettuce, cab-
- bages, and endive started growing last
Saturday on the Bryn Mawr acres of the
Sharpless Farm as a result of the expedi-
tionary force of ten led by Miss Nearing.
If the weather is right, Bryn Mawr will be
eating its own lettuce before Commence-
ment. “Twenty volunteers must go next
Saturday”, said Miss Nearing. “After
this week it will be too late to plant, and
five acres of potatoes must go in”.

Three teams were at work on the farm
Saturday, harrows, plough, and potato
planter all in action. Mr. Cromwell, head
of the Agricultural Department of the
West Chester Normal School, superin-
tended the work of the volunteers, among
whom were Miss Abigail Dimon, Miss
Margaret Bontecou, and Miss Alice Haw-
kins. The workers picnicked at noon and
the college truck motored them home at
night.

Mr. Cromwell and a Government super-
visor have mapped out the farm for corn
and potatoes. Hand-cultivation will raise
truck on the small individual gardens,
which are to be passed on from volunteer
to volunteer. The garden produce will be
sold during the summer.

Miss Nearing, Miss Hawkins, and Miss
Ehlers, Wardens of Rockefeller, Merion,
and Radnor, will each be at the farm
some part of the summer. About fifty
people have signed for work so far. Ap-
plications may be made to F. Clarke ’19,
Rockefeller.

CABLE OFFERING JOB IN FRANCE

tion in war relief under Mrs. E. W. Shurt-
leff. Mrs. Shurtleff is an American who

can students there. She has been’ doing
relief work in distributing supplies and

ding.

E. Dabney '19 has been elected toast-
mistress for College Breakfast.

That close contact with the , gatadaciat
in Independence Square had lent a sus-
picious appearance to the four Bryn
Mawr students who escaped from the
Joffre crowds last Wednesday to visit the
nearby Curtis Publishing Building at first
seemed evident from the cold reception |
given their request to be shown round.
Even a message from an editor of the
“Saturday Evening Post’, to the effect
that they should “ask for Mr. Jones”, met

with the retort that “if they waited for |.

Jones they would wait all day”.

It appeared later that; the presses of
the Curtis Publishing Company have been
closed to the public sincé the American
declaration of war, but the other parts of
the huge building, including rest rooms,
stage, kitchen, and employees’ dining-
room, were shown to the students by A.
W. Neall ’06, associate editor of the
“Post”,

The originals of ‘Post’ illustrations
decorated the corridor outside Miss
Neall’s office. The dining-room, where
employees are served a cafeteria lunch
at cost, is frescoed by Maxfield Parrish.

“JEANNE D’ARC” PRESENTED BY
MODEL SCHOOL

Costumes on Outdoor Stage
Stage

Medizval

GLADYS LEUBA IN TITLE ROLE
The “models” presented “Jeanne



d’Are” in French on Saturday afternoon,
with charming medieval costumes, on the |
lawn between the model school and the |
tea house. Gladys Leuba, Dr. Leuba’s
daughter, gave the réle of “la Pucelle” a
delightful interpretation which was en-
tirely her own.

The play is one written especially for |
children and begins with a festivity of the |
village children who scatter flowers in
honor of the saints they have come to
worship. The herald’s declaration that
the king has made Jeanne commander-in-
chief of the armies of France and the
people’s jubilation when she enters, in a
white robe with gold fleur de lis, ends the
play. A prologue, written by Miss Ellen
Thayer '07, who, with Mlle. Cheron, had
coached the children, linked the events
of the drama with the present war in sin-
gleness of purpose and of hope.



BOOKS FOR THE
COMMUNITY CENTER

A library of children’s and grown-ups’
books is on its way to the Community
Center from the State Library at Harris- |
burg. The loan was negotiated by Miss
Reed, Librarian of the College.

During the past six months 500 volumes



have been donated to the Community
Center by the people of the town. All|
the cataloguing and other incidental li-
brary work has been done by a sub-com-
mittee of the Junk Committee under E.
Rondinella, chairman.
