“Things of the Mind”

TRIBUTE PAID TO MISS ‘THOMAS

The following is President Park's first
“speech to the. College, it-tvas given on
Wednesday, October 4, at the first chapel
of the year: :
The first thought in every one’s minc

this morning inevitably is the strangeness

of President Thoms’ absence from this





_| platform_on_ the opening. day..of.the Bryn

Mawr year. By more than her long term
‘of service Miss Thomas had come to repre
sent the College itself, yeatly throwing oper
the and students.
Those of you who were present at Com-
mencement and at the dinner given in Miss
Thomas’ honor later must have felt over-
whelmingly such identification of the presi-
dent with the College not only because the
gact was repeated again and again by the
speakers, but because the picture of her
qualities and her activities: filled in, from
different points. of view became as. we lis-
tened a picture of the activities and quali-
ties of the College itself. And apart from
the emotion of that occasion the identi-
fication is a sgund one. It is true that the
College as we know -it has been- built. up
by many. people, by its founder, Dr. Taylor,
and its Boards of Trustees and Directors,
by the wise and serene Dr. Rhoads, its
first president, by the-faculty and deans,
by the students, graduate and undergrad-
uate mergiftg fast into the body of alumnae,
but all the time and up to this time one
workman has been con@tantly working, tak-
ig up materials that others laid down.
persisting in plans where others flagged,
searching for the new thing, which the
student of the *new’year ‘needed, a spend-
thrift of her time-in our’ behalf. It- is
not strange that Miss. Thamas’ imprint is
on almost everything which we _ possess
this morning. It is pleasant to think thaf
at. the beginning of- arfother year Miss
Thomas will’ be again at home in Bryn

doors welcoming its

Mawr and that both those of you who have...
‘known her and those who will go throtigh

this year. without knowing her will be
given another chance. You will know at

Mnss Thomas, as I have said, has grown
to be a kind of symbol of the College to
us all in a sense that no one else can ever

PRESIDENT PARK

Taken from the “Public Ledger,’ for Tues-
day, September 26.

Dx. Marion Edwards Park is now at
Bryn Mawr preparing for the opening of
the college- year and--of her—presidency-.is.
an accession not only to the service-of Heér

‘alma mater in the cause of higher educa~
tion, but to the aspirant idealism of the
entire community. It makes a great deal of
difference to Philadelphia who comes to
‘head our local colleges. The rapid yet
solid growth of Bryn Mawr in its influence
and in numbers to its extreme capacity has
been a sourcé of profound satisfaction to
a constituency much larger than the body
of alumnae. No American Woman has
reared for herself a memorial more durable
or more desirable than President Thomas

has crgated and it is to one of her loyal |

pupils that ~she commits a tradition and
Wiest:

‘For Dr, Park is not merely an alumna
of the College. She held its fellowship in
Latin, she received its doctorate and for a
year she served as Acting Dean. She
knows the College as thoroughly as any-
one could know it and she is one of those
who have given the first president, her pred-
ecessor, peculiar cause for pride and ‘satis- |
‘faction in a career dedicated to the ad-
yancement of learning.” Her installation
means a flawless continuity in a policy de-
termined with a-sensitive readiness to adapt
that policy flexibly to the conditions and
the requirements of the age.

'The new president has had varied execu-
- tive experience and its most recent chapter
was as dean, of Radcliffe College. She
never has submerged the woman in “the
administrative, she has heen and she always
will be the humanist. She does not intend
to- handle the “undergraduate body” as a
unit to be appreciated and managed with
“mob psychology.” Her evidént intent is
to regard the young women in her juris-
fiction as separate and sentiment human
- ~beings with problems that are individual, |
not composite. The. best guarantee of the
success that she will be is the success that
she has heen.



. THE YEAR’S PROMISE
_ Had President Park’s undergraduate days
ended last year instead of “before the
oldest senior was born,” she could not have
shown a more unerring knowledge of what
is needed at Bryn Mawr than she did in her
‘opening address yesterday morning. © She
. placed an unwavering finger upon the point,
the question which has become more and
_more serious, until its solution this year. is
imperative, “To grow into a wider acquaint-

ance with the things of the mind means |,

the single purpose of the athlete!” But

single purpose has in the last few years

become well-nigh impossible at Bryn Mawr,
except for the obscure few who escaped
election to committees, or disregarded the
" pressure of clubs, rehearsals, lectures, meet-.
ings, ; and the other countless demands of

a’ complicated society. The concentration
“ee which Miss Park speaks cannot be ‘prac-
_-tiged in a day which is divided between a
thousand duties. |

NOWHERE TO GO Be

Already. over nimety- -three acceptances have
beeri received from aluninae for the inaugu-
ration dinner on November 20th: This‘
means that over. ninety alumnae must spend
the night of the twentieth somewhere about
{the campus. The altimnae’room can take
‘care.of only twenty out of a possible 150,
the College can do nothing ahd the alumnae
office is tearing its hair and hoping for a
hot».fair night.

But even with a hot, fair night, the re-
port of the poor, tired alumnae left to lie
on hall steps would: “spread ‘to the propor:
tions of scandal and an insane alumnae
office means poor publicity for the new
year. So it séems as though the under-
graduates for the sake of themselves as
well as: everyone else. would do well to
come to the rescue. .

“THE COLLEGE NEWS”

The Cottecr News is run by a group of
undergraduates for the particular. benefit
of the students, faculty and alumnae of
Bryn Mawr College. The News has no
other policy than honesty. It makes every
attempt to be fair to both sides of a ques-
tion, and if it fails, it asks for. criticism.
The editors do not use the editorial column
to promote class or club politics or ary
other factional ends. They try to make it
rather express the best of student public

public organ and should be supported, used,

HOCKEY CAMP: GREAT SUCCESS
MANY SCHOOLS REPRESENTED

Team Play wk Clever Stick Work.
Emphasized i in Coaching

By Nancy Fitzgerald





Hockey enthusiasts’ gathered. from all
over the country at Mt. Pocono, Pennsyl-.
vania, during the firSt three weeks of Sep-
tember. -The camp, planned and made pos-
sible by Miss Applebee, was designed for
intensive crammjng in the strokes and=tae=
tics by which the AH-England team won
its series of victories last year.
field, who played centre halfback for them
on the American tour, proved herself as
able a coach as she is a player.

Camp Tegawitha was turned over to
Miss” Applebee, at the ‘end of ‘its regular
season, by the directors, Mr, and Miss
Lynch. For two hours every morning and

gave instructions. Dribbling and passing.
stopping the ball. dead, and how to ‘shoot
most quickly were part of the coaching
in strokes: * ‘

The new Rasta: game is played by’ five
“hacks” on a line, opposing the five for-
wards, and hence it is necessary to be con-
stantty on one’s guard against “off side.”
Should a wing, for instance, outstrip her
halfback there remains, in all probability,
only the goal keeper in front of her. eT.
terposing” is also being called very: strictly,
‘and it is a crime of the first magnitude
for the defense to pile into the circle and
obstruct the goal’s view. -

Team play—the generous use of every
member of the team and the subordination
of every individual to the good of the
whole—is the principle which combines with
clever stick work to produce the best re-
sults. To emphasize the important points
of passing to empty spaces and guarding
the forwards closely the teams sometimes
played at a walk, which makes mistakes
more obvious.
the players change positions at short inter-
vals, giving every a chance at both
forward and defense, enabled every player
to see the game from all points of view,
and led to better co-operation.

- With the regular coaching in the new
strokes and tactics and the nucleus formed
by the dozen or fifteen Bryn Mawr people
who attended the camp, college hockey
should show a marked improvement’ this
year. All four classes, including the enter-
ing Freshmen, were pretty évenly repre-
sented at -Tegawitha, but it was by no
means a Bryn Mawr. . affair. . Vassar,
Wellesley, many of the clubs around Phila-
delphia* (among them a number ‘of, over-
seas players) and numerous colleges and
organizations farther, West profited by the
opportunity. It is to be hoped that still
Lmore will be able to do so another year.

Highly recommended by Miss Applebee,
though taken in a less serious spirit by
others, was the nightly pastime of folk
dancing, which competed closely with
bridge as a. secondary diversion, It was
declared to be the ideal way to develop a
proper hockey run, but those who partici-
pated found. it equally good training in
wind and endurance. -The star performers
are expecting to form a super- -advanced
class this winter.

It is to Miss Applebee, who made it pos-
sible, that those who attended “the camp

one

| owe a unique opportunity to learn hockey.

To Miss Arnfield, who generously gave her

| Bryn Mawr alone, but all players, whether
or not they were lucky enough to spend a
‘week at Mt. Pocono, owe their thanks for
a lesson in hockey which cannot - fail to
make for a tremendous improvement and
add to its popularity wherever the game is
played in America.

THE PLAY: SPIRIT IN ACTING

By a Tutor of the Summer School and
Reprinted from “Alumnae Bulletin”
bobcats
The Summer School plunged into dra-
matics very much in the manner of. the
Winter School, on the committee system,
by which: the girls did everything them-
selves. It changed its tactics almost at
once, however, for several reasons. The
summer girls, who for the most part had
had some sort ‘of dramatic experience
through their clubs or “Y” centers, were
accustomed to depend on some one ‘who
took all the responsibilities. They found
that to run a thing themselves required
more -initiative,: time, and hard work than
they were prepared to put into recreation.
The woman in industry does not want her
fun to involve responsibility. She gets
enough of that elsewhere. Her idea of
play is relaxation, which is certainly the
antithesis of winter dramatics. Moreover
the loss of her studies would have been
far greater than the gain in executive or
dramatic experience. So*the Summer
School cut down on its original program,
and decided to give Lady Gregéry’s
Spreading the News, a shert, easy little
play, delightful if well done, and perfectly
suited to the available talent. Thanks to
the resources of the winter students’ prop-
erty room no costume committee was re-
quired, and as the scenery committee was
largely comtposed of a fresh air fiend. the
play was given out of doors, thereby
eliminating the usual exhausting painting
and carpentry. As a setting the Midsummer
Night’s Dream -hollow would have been

dificult to improve upon.

The play went off remarkably well, snd
although the cast included girls of English,
Irish, Scotch, German, Italian and Polish
descent, the Irish brogue was delightfully
convincing. Rehearsals were of necessity
somewhat casual, and, at the beginning,
‘decidedly up hill work. The cast acquired
a good deal by way of stage presence and
dramatic sense, in which, compared to the
winter students, they were at first amaz-
- ingly deficient. They*had not thé remotest
idea of how to move and talk, or any power
to visualize the effect which they themselves
produced, which is of*course essential in
acting. But the school could certainly boast
of one or two first-class comediennes, and
on the whole the girls suffered very little
from the inability to let go, which is the
curse of the winter’ student.“ Also they





ze
seemed to have been far more liberally sup-
plied with imagiff&tions than the winter
girls.

This last chayacteristic showed itself im
an endless variety of~.“stunts,” of which
the Summer School never tired. It also
went quite wild over masquerading, and
disguised itself completely at least once a
week, thereby putting considerable strain
on the versatility of the winter costumes.

The most interesting dramatic activity
of the Summer School‘ was due to Mrs.
Elliot of the Neighborhood Play House.
Under her direction the school had .a

unique Folk Festival on International Peace

Day. No audience was planned for, the
idea being that of a ceremony for the girls

themselves rather than a spectacle ‘for out?

siders. The festival was not rehearsed. It

was perfectly informal and perfectly genu- |

ine. Folk songs and dances of the different
nations of the world followed reading from
Whitman’s Salut au Monde. As it hap-
pened an audience of at least a hundred
turned up and were impressed by the fes-
tival as they never could have -been ‘had
anything more formal and more banal been
attempted. The girls themselves scarcely
realized in what a remarkable performance
they were.taking part, or appreciated the
fact that here was drama “of the people”
freed from ‘stage tradition and as pure as
Greek ritual.

The same principle of disregarding the
spectator and emphasizing the ceremonial
significance was applied in the closing
pageant, or rather masque, in the cloisters.
The resuf@ was perhaps the loveliest of all
the dramatic performances for which the
cloister has provided a setting. The cere-
mony, which was very short, took placé at
diisk. ~The words were written’ by “Miss
Smith, and the music was chiefly Gluck.
The girls, who wore their usual soft col-
ored dresses, had a single walking rehearsal
without words or music the day before,
which resulted in a gentiine @rowd really
taking part instead of a lifeless lump of
bored “supers.” It also resulted in extraor-
dinarily good natural grouping whiclr
months of conscious practicing could never
have produced. The iv y-crowned allegorical
figures bearing. little iron lamps, t the red
lanterns which all the girls carried, and lit
at the symbolic fire on the altar of rugged
stone, and_most ofall the unconsciousness
underlying rhythm of the whole ceremony
made ‘it a really beautiful sight for the

taudience who had been so completely
ignored.



Everyone is tired of hearing. that the
drama has gone to the dogs, that it has
strangled itself in red tape and century-qld
conventions which have long since lost their
raison d'etre. Every periodieal that touches
on the subject at all has words to the same
effect. But here and there signs of hope
are reported, attempts to make the drama
something significant and_ vital, in which
every. one has his share. The Summer
School’s acting on this principle of not con-
sidering the audience was a real step for-
ward, «and gave the girls an “experience
which they could have had in no other way.
Dramatically, as in all else, the Summer
School is abreast of the times, and not like
our regular colleges tottering on its up-
stage foot in a maze of early Victorian
formulas.

men—express’ our. belief. in one thing.
namely, that an individual by making his
chief busihess for a term of years thinking.
reading, listening, discussing, a life of intel-
lectual effort, a scholar’s life, is doing a
wise and a profitable thing for himself and
for the. world, This .belief of. yours and
mine, many people oppose; they oppose it
for women, or fOr certain classes of so-
ciety, or they opgose it entirely, like the
young lady in the nursery. rhyme,: Mot. je
dis que les bonbons Valent mieux, que la
raison. On the other -hand many share it.
Men and women Who. have never known
stich a period in their own experience have
seen it in imagination and by their interést
and their gifts have made others see it in
actuality. Those who themselves have had
experience of it. almost without exception
want a younger generation, brothers, sisters,
sons and daughters, to be able to repeat it.

As J have said, you and I believe in the
profit and the wisdom of the scholar’s
training or we should not be facing each
other-here today.__For_ you have not chosen
the casket blindly like Portia’s ‘suitors.
You have deliberately left another kind of
life, a pleasant and familiar life,,in favor
of this. Your fathers and mothers have
opened their doors and sent you out to do
it. You, have this year or last year or the
year. before gone through a long and hard
preparation to make your presence here
possible. From the most learned graduate
‘to the youngest Freshman we have all un-
derwritten our belief in countless ways.
And we are starting in today as Bryn
Mawr has started in all. its previous years
to put it.into practice.

Now to fill one’s working time with
thought and books and talk sounds like a
pleasant and an easy life. It proves to: be
unexpectedly soon a hard life and where-
ever easiness constitutes pleasure often an
unpleasant and hard life. Why is the pic-
ture conjured up by the words so unlike
the actual thing? : Why do we\wake from
our dream with such a start?

The master activity which we are to
practice here, the activity on which the
others are strung like beads on a chain,
is thinking. In our own mental workshops
the knowledge we get through reading and
listening is assorted, tested, rearranged, set
up temporarily or permanently on our
shelves and in due time fed to our machine
The stimulus of a lecture in our oyn sub-
ject from an older scholar or a discugsion
with a fiery opponent sets the wheels of

faculty, graduate students, seniors, fresh- |

time, draw. the attention of, any. psycho-
pathic staff.e, We must laboriously contrive
the protective armor which he could put on

‘at will. Such an effort-to creaté a condition

in which the best quality and quantity of
mental activity can arise explains many
things at Bryn Mawr—the College itself
isolated from city confusions, the studied
peacefulness of the campus, the restricted
numbérs, the attempt*to have the great ma-
jority of the girls live on the campus, the
regulations for quiet and for continuity. of
work. And apart from these artificial bar-
riers¢ protecting our weak thinking power
from the more presumptuous sins of broken
into work and effort, each individual must
set: up his own spiritual defenses against
the enemy. To fight for concentration
through a single evening and to come out
on top, can be a beginning and when once
ong, has had the experience of that deep
dive into a pool of thought to emerge
finally breathless with no idea of time that
has passed or of place, he knows better
how to set up the preliminaries for it again.
In the end he may accomplish what more
nearly approaches Socrates’ record than he
could have ever thought possible. ‘

You believe in the value’ of the scholar’s
preparation for life. You believe in it for
yourselves. It is not that we must regard
the outside’ world .as a vain and fleeting
show, nor yét. that we must consider you
as not ready now for ordinary human ac-
tivities. Many young women of your own
age are bearing dnd training children or are
contributing economically to ‘their com-
munities. They are for the moment un-

deniably more useful to the world at large
‘than you.

You hav started in on another
road. You have registered your belief
that your personal contribution in order to
be your best possible contribution must
come more slowly, that it will ripen by
training, that it will prepare you for a life
olitside the College certainly as full andas
ardent anc more intelligent than if you had
slipped out into the ‘business of-the world
earlier. .

My conclusién has been obvious to you
all-from the beginning. This is to be our
common ground for work together—the
basis of our discussions and our decisions.
The journey of the year has started and
from this time on we shall have to spend
most of our conferences in arranging for
the details of the day, not -in talking about
our destination. In the back of our heads
we must always recognize it. To grow

respected, I believe, because very many of

its students are here “honestly to ‘grow in}

here with that purpose it could raise its
head even more prgndly,

mathematics or the language requirements,

lectured on much the same subject far
more pithily than I, dramatized the two
as “Wisdom and the Strange Woman,”
and he thereby set forth the seductiveness
of the things of the world with an effective-
