THE CLASS OF 1917





TENTH REUNION BRINGS
GREATEST NUMBER---

1907 LEADS
Bluepoints Compose Costumes

1907 with 58 at their tenth reunion has
led all the classes in the number return-
ing, though, in spite of war-time economy,
all the reunions have been unusually
large.

The class that planted the first class
tree, 1897, has been 35 strong at its twen-
tieth reunion. The historic tree is an
oak outside of Dalton and this year the
class had to go to the Pike and buy three
yards of ribbon to tie around it. Red hat,
tie and stockings and white dress is their
costume, Their class baby, Helen Hutch-
ins Weist, the daughter of Alice Cilley
Weist, will enter next year and on
Wednesday her mother gave a tea for her
at Bryn Mawr.

At 1907’s banquet, held Saturday even-
ing in Pembroke, their class president,
who is also an ex-president of the Ath-
letic Association, Esther Williams Al-
thorp, spoke. The toast mistress was A.
Cannon and the other speakers were
Dean Schenck, H. Houghteling, Mrs. Cecil
Barnes (M. Ayer), G. Hutchins, the Chi-
nese missionary who spoke last fall at
China Night; E. Thayer, reader in French
here, and M. O'Sullivan, whose blank
verse translation of “Pallas” was printed
in the Lantern Night number of the
News. Green cloth turtles hung around
their necks distinguished 1907. Their re
union had been arranged for by Mrs
Barnes, who arrived early last week, and
A. Hawkins, warden of Merion.

At 1912's fifth reunion banquet, in Rad-
nor Saturday night, 35 were present. M.
Alden Lane was toastmistress, and: L
Watson, C. Hammer, M. Thompson, and
C. Welles were the speakers.

SENIOR ORALS ARE DEFINITELY ABOLISHED
Written Examinations Will Take Their Place Next Year

OFFICIAL ACCOUNT OF CHANGE

The senior oral examinations having
been abolished by the faculty, written ex-
aminations will be given next year in
their place at the time scheduled for the
oral examinations and will be conducted
by two committees of three each elected

in French and in German by the faculty, |
| made in the courses required for an A.B.

one member of the department concerned
being elected to act as chairman.

New Entrance Requirements

Many changes have been made in the
entrance requirements of Bryn Mawr Col-
lege which will be optional in 1918 and
following years, and obligatory from 1921.
The examination in the fourth language
Candidates will
be required to offer as at present Mathe-
matics, Latin, English, 4 points each; an
examination in either Greek, French, or

German, counting 3 points, somewhat
more difficult than the present Greek,
French, and German, the examinations

being equivalent to French A and B or
German A and B of the College Entrance
Examination Board; Ancient History,
counting one point in and after 1919;
Physics counting 2 points, in and after
1919; English History, about equivalent to
four periods a week for one year, counting
1 point; American History, being per-
mitted to be substituted, if schools can fur-
nish proof that’ English History cannot be
taught in the school courses, optional in
1918 and following years, obligatory in
1921; Physiology and Hygiene, or Chem-
istry, or Physical Geography, or Botany,
equivalent to about 3 periods a week for
one year, counting 1 polit, Gptional in
1918 and following years, obligatory in
1921

It is hoped by the faculty that by reduc-
ing the amount of language work required
or preparation and by requiring subjects
like history and science, students may
enter Bryn Mawr better prepared than at
present for their college work.

Changes in A. B. Curriculum

Important changes have also been
degree, these changes being in great part
a consequence of dropping the oral ex-
aminations in French and German for
seniors.

On the first Saturday of each college
year every undergraduate student must
take an hour’s written examination in the
foreign language, Greek or French, or
German, which she offered at entrance.
This examination must be taken in every
year of the college course until gradua-
tion. Students entering with Greek will
be excused from the written examination
in Greek at the beginning of the year fol-
lowing the—-year in which they have
elected and passed a minor or major
course in Greek.

On the second Saturday of the junior
year, every junior must take an exami-
nation in a language which she did not
offer at entrance, Greek, or French, or
German, Spanish, students entering
with Greek being required to take French
or German. This examination will be ele-
mentary in character, about equivalent to
5 periods a week for one year in prepara-
tory schools or to elementary Greek,
French, or German in the college,
vided that only about an hour and a half
of outside preparation for
each hour of lecture

VARSITY TAKE ALUMNA GAME
Athletic Prizes Awarded

The alumne celebrated Bryn Mawr’s
fifth Athletic Day yesterday morning
with a triumphal procession from Pem-
broke Arch to the lower hockey field.
With them marched the alumne and
varsity basket-ball teams, whose game,
won by varsity 18-2, preceded the pres-
entation of cups and yellow ties.

After the game, T. Howell, president of
the Athletic Association, presented the
individual and class athletic cups. Gold

searf pins in the shape of miniature
hockey sticks were presented to the
members of the Varsity hockey team

in memory of their championship season
and the All-Philadelphia.
The cup for the all-around athletic cham-
pionship, presented last year by Miss Ap-
plebee in honour of the class of 1916, was
won by 1917, champions in four sports,
with a total of 185 1-6 points.

The cup for first team hockey cham-
pionship went 1917, the second and
third to 1919. In tennis and swimming,
1920 carried off the honours. The fresh-
men took the cups for first team singles
and doubles, while M. S. Cary '20 won the
individual championship. 1920
also secured the class cup for swimming,
and two fréshmen, M. and K.
Townsend, tied for the individual cup

Once upon a time thane was a girl who
was continually dissatisfied on the sub
ject of her “senior oral examinations in
French and German”. First she com-
plained that it was impossible to get to
them on time and that she ran the risk
of losing by default. So her kind in-
structors instituted the custom of sopho-
more runners—with their general conno-
tation of “being shot at sunrise”. Next
the girl complained that she took no
French or German in college and had for’
gotten in her senior year what she knew
for her entrance examinations. Then to
remedy this defect her twice kind in-
structors gave her little French and Ger-
man books to read each summer to pre-
vent her from forgetting and here her
summer was “ruined”! “But this is only
a farce , she protested afresh, “on prin-
ciple, I never do merely recommend read-
ing”. So the thrice kind instructors of-
fered—-indeed required—‘mock orals” to
welcome the girl in the fall. “Orals are
barbarous” was her next sweeping de-
nunciation and now she will write instead
of speak before the dread triumvirate.

Who benefits by the change?—-why the
song-writers; for now they have found a
new rhyme for their verses, “trembling
hand and pen” ins‘ead of the traditional
“voice”.

Go on, Mighty Seniors!

Though the red banner will hang on
the gym next year for hockey, water-polo,
and basket-ball, no victorious emblem will
be needed to remind the college of the
outgoing senior class. For the record of
the class which has won three triple
championships and under whose lead the

Varsity hockey team first defeated Alt}

Philadelphia includes more than sporting
honors. 1917's academic average is one
of the highest ever reached at Bryn
Mawr. Nineteen seniors have an average
of 80 or over and four graduate Magna
Cum Laude. Only two have an average
of less than 70.

In the matter of abolishing irksome tra-
ditions 1916 largely cleared the way last
year, but 1917 has departed from custom
in the giving of original senior plays.
Their significance may be measured by
the furore they created.

Finally; 1917 will be vaunted in tradi-
tion as the last class to undergo ordeal by
fire, the “last class to take the senior
orals”.

LETTERS TO THE EDITOR
(The editors do not hold themselves responsible
for opinions expressed in this column)

To the Editor of the College News:
May I introduce Bryn Mawr through
the College News to the Intercollegiate
Alumnz Athletic Association? The As-
sociation, which is the outgrowth of the
work of the Barnard Alumne Commit-
tee on Athletics, was formed a little
over a year ago. In its membership
of more than 400 there are 56 colleges
and universities represented.
Of course, you are more interested in
the future than in the past and if those
‘of you who live in or near New York
will join us next winter you will have
abundant opportunity for good basket-
ball and swimming and dancing, and
almost everything else you can think of.

MARIAN O'CONNOR ‘18|16 and 17. Perhaps if you come to Sat:

instruction for beginners, drills for in-

the Association is a true example of
community co-operation and except for

urday afternoon hockey practice in the}
‘| fall we can bave « team that will beat
next year’s” varsity. Beginning in Oc-
| tobe there will be riding classes with

termediates, and bare back and polo
for the more daring spirits. All this
you can have at “bargain rates”, for

annual dues of two dollars (which cover
the expenses of running the various com-
mittees, printing of notices and postage,
etc.) the fee for each activity is the ac-
tual cost per individual.
You will find that the weekly classes
are a fine wuy to keep up with collegsa
friends—and to make new ones. Aiumnze
of ten or twenty years ago play with
as much abandon as last year’s A. B.’s.
Vassar and Smith vie with Bryn Mawr
and Mount Holyoke for the basket-ball
championship. Bryn Mawr did not win
this year—but with your help it may
next year.
If you don’t want to join the Asso-
ciation now, cut this out and put it
where you will find it next fall. Take
my word for it, about the middle of Oc-
tober you will begin to long for hockey
or swimming or even for Heavy Gym.
Miss Charlotte Hand, 373 Washington
Avenue, Brooklyn, will be glad to an-
swer any questions or to send you niem-
bership application blanks.
New York, May 26.

Agnes Morrow 1912.



To the Editor of the College News:

The Boston Athletic Association of Col-
legiate Alumnz, which meets for basket-
ball, hockey, tennis, gym, and anything
else which members want, is anxious for
new members. Any holder of a degree
from Bryn Mawr, or from any other four-
year college course, is eligible, and ap-
plications for membership may be made
to M. Edwina Warren, 41 Middlesex Road,
Chestnut Hill, Mass.

Do join if you are in or near Boston
next winter. Blizabeth Ayer ‘14, Mary
Coolidge ‘14, Edwina Warren ‘14, Ger-
trude Emery '15, or Miss Applebee will be
glad to give any information about the
club.

*. Every one who enjoyed athletics in col-
lege will find organized exercises after
college not only healthful but most en-
joyable. The annual dues are very small
and the more members the less dues.

Tenth Reunion Brings Greatest Number

(Continued from page 1.)

A picnic took the place of 1914’s supper
on Monday evening and about 40 came
back for it.

An ex-president of Self-Government, E.
B. Smith, was '15’s toastmistress at their
banquet in Merion Saturday. The speak-
ers were H. Bradford, Dean of Women
at Leland Stanford University; I. Foster,
founder of the College News; O. Erbsloh,
M. Jacobs, M. Keller Heyl, mother of the
class baby; A. Kenyon, an ex-president
of the Undergraduate Association; M. M.
Chamberlain Moore, K. Mc@ollin, and E.
Van Horn. The headquarters for 1915
have been in Rockefeller. They had no
costume this year.

An oyster shell on a light blue ribbon
composed 1916’s costume. 39 were pres-
ent at their banquet on Saturday evening
in Rockefeller, where L. Klein was toast-
mistress. The speakers were A. Werner,
ex-president of the Undergraduate Asso-
ciation; D. Packard, M. Dodd Sangree,
M. Russell, ex-president of Self-Govern-
ment, and M. Branson, ex-president of the
Athletic Association. The class bulletins
recording the “past, present and future”
of 1916 were place cards. Their head-
quarters have been in Merion. The money
saved on costumes was voted to the sup

Over $3200 collected by tl the 5 Bova Mawr
Belgian Committee since March 5th, for
the support of Beersel, near Malines, Ant-
werp, was sent to Mr. Alexander Hemp-
hill, treasurer of the American Commis-
sion for Relief in Belgium, before June
1st, the last day when the Commission
would receive contributions. Owing to
the government loan to Belgium no
pledges will be collected hereafter. Last
week the committee refunded many ad-
vance payments on pledges.
Approximately $1200 of the $3200 was
given by the Alumne and faculty, and
$2000 by the students. $1200 went to the
Commission in three monthly payments
of Bryn Mawr’s $400 a month pledge and
the balance was sent May 31st in accord-
ance with the request of Mr. Hoover. In
a letter to the Bryn Mawr “associates” of
the Commission Mr. Hoover sent his
thanks to the subscribers as individuals
and as an organized group.



That the Belgian Relief and the Red
Cross Committees of the C. A. combine
next year under the head of the War Re-
lief has been proposed. The executives

Freshmen Cut Least, Juniors Most

The statistics of the Undergraduate
Cutting Committee show that on an aver-
age 1920 has taken the least unexcused
cuts, with 1917 a close second; 1918, the |
most, with 1919 next. In the matter of
recording the cuts 1919 and 1920 have
been more exact than 1917 and 1918. As
the hall representatives have been un-
able to collect all of 1917’s cut cards for
May the figures in their case are an esti-
mate.

These statistics have been made out on
a slightly different basis from those of
the office. Unavoidable cuts, such as
those for illness in the student’s family,
have been counted excused. Hence the
unexcused cuts represent those which are
really illegitimate and should not have
been taken.

The office statistics for—the—last-third
of the semester have not yet come.

Billy Sunday at Baccalaureate

Evidently feeling that to some members
of the congregation a suggestion to
“brighten. the corner where you are”
might not be untimely, the skilled Italian
workmen supplied the platform seats for
Baccalaureate last Sunday with Billy |

cerning eye they were removed a few

|classes and pay for them at the present ae

rates. They will not have another Op
portunity to be examined until the second
Saturday of their senior year. If they

‘fail to pass this examination they must
wait over for their degree and try the

same examination again at the beginning
of the next college year, this rule requir-
ing them to defer their degrees admit-
ting of no exception.

Students failing to pass any one.of the
four written examinations in the lan-
guage offered for entrance will in ifke
manner be required to go into tutoring
classes and the fact of having passed the
written examination in one year will not
save-them from being put into a tutoring
class in the next year if they fail to pass.
As in the former oral examinations, eter-
nal vigilance is the price of safety.

On account of the war Harvard, Yale,

universities preparedness demonstrations

there will be no ball game or boat race

practically completed to make the annual

WOMEN INCLUDED IN
MILITARY RECORDS
New York Women Take Census

“For the first time in the history of the
country”, says the New York Times, “a
military census is to include women as
well as men. This census also deviates
from its predecessors in that women vol-
unteers will take an active part in the
actual work of enumeration. Chief among
the organizations taking part are the Na-
tional League for Women’s Service, with
Mrs. Goelet Gallatin at the head, and the
State Suffrage League, directed by Mrs.

-| Norman de R. Whitehouse. According to

Miss Esther E, Lape, chairman of the Re-
source Mobilization Committee, a division
of the Department of Codéperating agen-
cies, the census work will do much toward
showing the women their comparative
strength and how they fit into the work
as a whole”.

A similar census dividing the students
into agricultural, business, scientific, and
hospital reserves was made last year by
Dr. Marion Parris Smith ‘01.

“Sok Segetiatinast Qeetoastonlion of the
Jacques-Dalcroze Eurythmics by the pu-

pils of the Model School, given last Fri- —

day afternoon in the gymnasium under
the direction of Monsieur de Montoliu,
included dances composed by members of

| the class and the singing at sight of a

melody. President Thomas and several
of the Directors of the collége were pres-
ent.

The purpose of the work in eurythmics
is to cultivate to a very exact understand-
ing of music (values of notes, rhythm, ac-
cent, phrasing, tempo, etc.) and also to
acquire the muscular control necessary to
realize the music in action. When the
pupil is able to express the music by
means of these arbitrary movements, and
her understanding of the music is obvi-
ous, the motions may be varied and ex-
pression becomes more “plastic”.

In former years the children had not
arrived at the plastic stage, but last Fri-
day the two upper classes took part in
dances referred to on the program as ‘“‘In-
dependent control: plastic canon”, “Les
petites filles de pierre, a plastic study of
E. Jacques-Dalcroze”, and “Expressive ac-
cents and dynamic shading; plastic inter-
pretation of rhythms”.

WHOLE CHRISTIAN ASSOCIATION
WILL BELONG TO'1. C. 8. A.

Vida Scudder. Praises Dr. a cot

_ By a plan accepted at the recent con-
ference at Mt. Ivy, Bryn Mawr-will belong
through the C. A. to the Intercollegiate
Community Service Association, as the
former College Settlement organization is
now called, and of which ‘Dr. Kingsbury
is president. The whole C. A. will conse-
quently be responsible for the dues, the
amount of which is to be arranged later.

In an article on the new I. C. S. A. in
“The Survey” for June 2d, Dr. Vida Scud-
der writes: |

“The best is the last to be told: the
association has secured for its leaders
Susan M. Kingsbury, director of the
Carola Woerishoffer graduate school for |
social studies at Bryn Mawr, and Helen |
Greene, long intimate with civic and set-|
tlement work. Dr. Kingsbury brings to
this new enterprise executive ability,
wide experience, and devoted faith in the
contribution to be made by educated
women to the ideals of the new fraternal
world toward which in these dark days
our faces are resolutely set. Her depart-
ment at Bryn Mawr represents the first
attempt connected with any women’s col-
lege to train graduates for social service,
and Bryn Mawr and the C. S. A. should
both profit by her assumption of leader-





ship in the intercollegiate movement”.

L. Cox Harmon ‘14, Alumne captain,
opened the game with a neat goal from
almost the center of the pool, and did the
best work for her team. In the second
half she outplayed T. Howell '18, Var-
sity’s star halfback, who declared Mrs.
Harman was the strongest player she
ever met in the pool. Strong support by
A. Miller ’14, at forward, and the firm
Alumnez defense held the Varsity down
to 2 goals, both made by M. Willard, Var
sity captain. The third goal tallied
against the Alumnz was accidentally
made by E. Ayer '14, Alumn@ goal.

on the necessity for change and develop-
ment in the life of women. Passing over
the theory that woman’s life is “one

tent”, Dr. Shaw gave examples of the
wide activities of women in the early
Christian church, and led up to the re-
sponsibility of the world toward women
to-day. The choir sang a special anthem,
Kipling’s Recessional, set to music by
Reginald de Koven. .

SIXTY-NINE TO RECEIVE A.B.’s

Sixty-nine A.B.’s will be awarded this

for their degrees.

The national anthem will open the
Commencement ceremony and Mr. Carter
will make the opening prayer. After the

ing of the prizes, scholarships, and fel-
lowships previously announced by Presi-
dent Thomas, Mr. Thomas Raeburn
White, a member of the Corporation and
of the Board of Directors, and a lawyer
instrumental in the League to Enforce

members of the class of 1917, 1917, candi-
dates for A.M.’s, fellows, and candidates
for Ph.D.’s.

Report Refers to University Cramming

In a leading article published last Fri-
day the College News created a false im-
pression by the caption, “Old School a
Travesty on Education”. The report of
the Academic Committee of the alumna,
quoted under this head, did not refer to
the Bryn Mawr Tutoring School as a trav-
esty, but to schools of a similar character
conducted in connection with universi-
ties.
