- HISTORY. OF THE SONG -
~ TRACED IN RECITAL

Miss Madge Fairfax lites with
Songs. Mr. Aluryne’s Com-
posit on Applauded

*





The subject of Mr. Thomas Whitney
Surette’s fourth lecture récital last Mon-
day evening, at which Miss Madge Fair-
fax, mezzo-soprano, sang, accompanied at

. the piano«by Mr.-Horace Alwyne, was
“the development of the song.” ,
Mr. Surette gave a deseriptive and.

analytical sketch of the development of the
song from Folk Songs to those of Rach-
maninow, Gretchaninow, andthe present
day. Miss Fairfax’s songs illustratéd his
thesis. i :

“An Autumn Song,” by Mr. Alwyne him-
self, illustrating the modern products, was
received by the audience with great accla-
mation.

There are, said Mr., Surette,
The first is by noting the connection be-
tween sense and words. In Mozart and the
folk songs the music expressed any mean-
ing; a sad tune did for gay or sad words:
Now a song-writer. has no desire for mu-
sical coherence. His motif fits his mean-
ing and changes with it. Inthe second
piace, song has developed in connection
with its accompaniment. A folk song had
no accompaniment.- But Brahms and
Strauss have very complicated accompany-
ing motifs. In the third place, the song
has developed in the melodic ponepliaeiiy ‘of
line and phrase.

Aside from these three points, the per-
sonality of the singer must be taken into

UNUSUAL ATHLETIC MEET
’~ HELD IN GYMNASIUM ~

Graduates and Seniors Grapple to
Win First Place

Seniors and graduates, dressed in gym-





nastic costume, rivaled one another in rope
rr

ing, reeling relays, hop-scotch, and
other events of the Athletic Meet given to
1923 by the Graduate Students in the Gym-
nasiuim last Saturday night.

First in the list of sports came the ob-
stacle race, in which the contestants scram-
bled under mats,’ pushed dumb bells with
their noses, and finally crawled to the finish’
on. all. fours. In the reeling relay, which

. followed when everyone had caught her

. breath, each runner was provided with an
umbrella, which she carried furled across
tie gymnasium, where she opened it and
‘after pivoting around twice with her nose
‘on the handle, closed it again and dashed
back to hand it to the next in line. Turtle
race, tape races, rope jumping, hop-scotch
and jack-stones came next. The jack game
was perhaps the most popular. until Miss
Young proved herself such a skilled player
that no one could™ be found to~competé
‘with her, but the hop-scotch field was at
_all times very crowded.

After the scores were reckoned at me

end of the meet the Seniors who were
_ judged -victorious, gathered under their
banner and cheered their valiant oppo-
nents who lowéred their emblem, a pink
_ banner with white numerals, reading 1776.
- An athletic wedding, in which the bride
wore a badminton-net veil and the service
was all written in athletic terms, made a:
- fitting end for the strenuous meet. A wed-
~ding breakfast, consisting of ice .cream
cones and crackers, was | served to. the

UNDERGRADUATE COMMITTEE TO
INVESTIGATE CURRICULUM



Report Recommending Changes to be
: Made to Faculty



The studént members of the college
council have appointed a committee which
will investigate the curriculum and look
into the general matter_of college courses,
to make a report to the Faculty who are
at present working along the same lines
and who will consider this report before
making any changes in the curriculum. The
committee will probably divide its investiga-
tions into two parts. First, they will give
special attention to required work, and the
rearrangement of present courses, and try

| to-work out some good: basis-for the group

system. Secondly, they will consider tenta-
tive suggestions for an honor system and
comprehensive examinations. The commit-
tee will write to other colleges for sug-
gestions, and in order to get the opinions
of everyone in college one person in every
hall has been appointed from each class to
submit any suggested changes to the com-
mittee.

The members are: F. Martin, ’23, ex-

ADELPHI DEFEATED BY VARSITY
IN BASKET BALL

Skillful and Intelligent Playing by
S. Leewitz and M. Palache





Varsity defeated Adelphi College, Brooke
lyn, last Saturday, with a score of 36-10.
The victory was accomplished not so

much by the offensive of the forwards as
by the defense of the guards and by the
quick and accurate passing in the center.
Either because of a characteristic and es-
tablished independence in playing, or be-
cause of the’ comparative novelty of . the

General Azgapetyan, a_ graduate of
Robert College, Constantinople, and of
Geneva College and Columbia University,
and a veteran of the Russian army, spoke
in chapel last Friday morping, appealing
for funds for the Near-East Relief.
“During the Great War a call came from
the Allies fo the Armenians,” began Gen-

of the Allies and trusted them. We came

FRENCH ACTRESS GIVES SCENE-*
FROM MYSTERE, AND OLD PLAY



Rise of Drama in France Described
by Mme. Rey, Pupil of Copeau



Dressed in a medieval gown of richly
brocaded satin’ and speaking in the slow
clear French of a trained actress, Mme.
|Maude Rey, pupil of the famous Jacques
Copeau, gave a triply illustrated sketch of
the development of the drama in France,
in Taylor Hall last Friday evening under

|the auspices of the French Club. Using’

lantern slides of early settings asa back-

ground. for her acting, Mme. Rey ren-

dered scenes from a “mystére” and from

an early comedy. ;

The-first dramatic productions were held

inside the church, and, as dramatizations

of Bible scenes, formed part of the service.
In the twelfth and thirteenth centuries

eagerness for this kind of expression in-

creased until the performances were taken

outside of the church, and church schools

became interested in writing pieces in the

vulgar tongue. With the development of

the miracie and mystery play, pageantry

grew in ‘importance, The stage was en- |

EDITORS IN EMBRYO |

The Cottece News does not drop out of
heaven, neither is it found ready printed on
a tree. It is put together piece by picce
by a number. of, people who work at it and
think about it. Since the public, a many-
polyhedron, is never _ satisfied,
neither is their stimulus for hard work and
hard thinking ever absent: News is a duty,
a game, a job, a pastime,—anything you
want to call it. If it is work, it has its
amenities and satisfactions without number.
No work on the point list leads one into
more by-ways and sanctums of college life,
nor trains one more consistently, nor ad-
vances one more surely than an editorship
on the News. If past editors have failed
to profit by their® chances, it is no proof
that the future doesnot hold a Horate
Greeley. The opportunities for journal-
istic Napoleons are at any rate limitless.
And it should be remembered by lower
classmen for whom a ‘competition has been

opened that through the News they can

express not- only themselves, but Bryn
“Mawr, and the public is extensive. ‘

A BOX IN EACH HALL

“By. their action in appointing a com-
mittee to investigate the curriculum and to
recommend to the Faculty certain changes,
the. student members of the College Coun-
cil have shown not only that they realize
the dissatisfaction felt about some of the
, college work, but have made an attempt
to formulat® some constructive suggestions
based on investigation. However, to make
any such an investigation really thorough
the whol€ college must co-operate with the
Curriculum Committee, handing in all pos-
sible complaints and suggestions during the
next two or three weeks. These sugges:
tions should not be mere idle grumblings,
but carefully ‘thought-out plans, since the
-Committee’s report offers an opportunity
not to be neglected. The Faculty is
“anxious to know student opinion and wil
consider this report before taking any
definite action * about changing the group
system and other matters now under con-
__ sideration. ‘The method of irfstruction as

~~ well as requirements for a degree’ may he

changed. There is an opportunity which

may not ‘come again for the lower classmen
to suggest how their courses be planned

in future and for Juniors and Seniors to

shape the peed of the college.

CHANGES IN THE QUIZZ SCHEDULE
‘EXPLAINED BY PRESIDENT PARK
‘ ‘ Te :



Courses in History of ‘Religion This
. Semester



‘ *
The changes in scheduled quizzes and
the new courses which may .be entered this
semester were announced by President
Perk last Wednesday ip Chapel.
hg, dates for the once scheduled quizzes,
she explained, will no longer be posted on
the schedule for academic work, but they
will be announced by instructors in indi-
vidual courses. . The ‘number; of quizzes,
moreover, will be lessened. In five-hour
courses, two quizzes ‘will be given; in-one-,
two-, and. three-hour courses, ‘®nly one.

By’ these alterations the Faculty hopes to.

minimize the over- -emphasis which they feel
has been placed om quizzes, and by contrast,
increase the emphasis in individual work
and daily recitations.

The Department of Semitic re
and History of Religion, she continued, i
offering: a number of new courses sdoial
the students may enter this seqester.
‘They include History of the Near East on
Wonday, Wednesday and Friday at 10.-A.
M.; the religions of .the Hebrews and
Arabs; the Hebtew, Prophets and, their
Problems (on Wednesday and Friday at

9 A. M.); a careful study and interpreta |

tion of the Hebrew
ticular attention to
and their social, ethical, and religious
teaching; the Idea. of _God_ in Modern
Thought (on Tuesday and Thursday at G
A. M.), a critical study of Man’s Concep-
tion of God from the earliest times to the
present as revealed in the great religions
and in modern thought; f

style,

and History oi
the Bible and Problems of ‘tts Interpreta-
tion (onyMonday at 9 A. M.), a history of
the Bible from its earliest beginnings down
to the translations of our own time, to-
gether with a consideration of the prob-
lems of its interpretation.

To the Editors of the CotLece News:

Quiz schedules are gone! There
special eight o’clock class in required “Eng-
lish! The six daily pages of history’ notes
have given way to. discussion of the read-
ing and.a very few uniform notes !

Change is in the~air!

For years the undergraduates east been
kicking. Kicking against reading, against
requireds, against quizzes. President Park
has brought in the new order,. and_ the
curriculum is under consideration. Now
‘is the time for the registering of all ob:
iections, for the curing of all evils. Do
you like required, Latin? Do you want
aight o'clock classes? Would honor
courses be “undemocratic? Is required
English all that it should be? How about
the logic of the present group system?

The Curriculum Committee. is very
anxious to have everyone in college, who
joes not think the present curriculum en-
tirely as it should be, try to formulate her
vague objections and present them to the
committee. For this purpose someone has
been appointed in each class in each hall
to collect opinions, -and a box-has been put
in each hall in which suggestions may be
placed. .

I cannot say too strongly how necessary
IT think it is for people to take the trouble
to criticize now! The Faculty Committee
is working on the curriculum. They realize
the fallibility of the old system and are
asking for. the students’ ideas. It is our
opportunity—a big one which. will affect
not only our work, but also the future
college -policies. Everything | extra in col-
lege is an effort, but this effort will be
more than worth while. We -must make it.

AMERICAN UNIVERSITY WOMEN
HOLD MEETING AT BRYN MAWR

Seniors Invited to Attend Lecture on
English vs. American Education

The American Association of University
Women, which held its annual convention
at Swarthmore last week end, chose Bryn
Mawr for its Saturday afternoon meeting.
About 200 delegates were present at this
meeting, which began by a closed speech
on Student Governmént.. The Senior class
Was invited to the second half of the pro-
gram, which consisted of a speech by Miss
Ellis-Fermer, of Oxford, on the difference
between English and American Univer-
sities. :

The curriculum was the first matter Miss
Ellis-Fermer considered; in America, she
‘said, the curriculum covers a greater range
of. subjects and. thus fulfills the aim of
education in America—‘“to finish one’s ele-
mentary education and to get general ex-
perience.”. In England the emphasis’ is
placed entirely on one subject, with an in-
spiring result for real scholars and a de-
pressing result“ for ethers;



annual conference of the Student Volun-
teess, held at Madison, New Jersey, last |
week-end.

Although the main topics of the speakers:
at the Conference were Foreign Missions,
the newer subject of’ Internationalism was
continually emphasized. , Dr. Ezra Tipple,
President of Drew Seminary, welcomed the
lelegates on Friday evening and a talk by
kev, Samuel Zwemer, editor of the Moslem
World, and a strong upholder of political
iberty of Mohammedan couhhtries about
the Mediterranean, immediately followed.
Among the other speakers were the Rev.
Paul Hutchison, of China, Rev. .Herbert
Sein, of Mexico, and Miss Margaret E.
Burton, Executive Secretary of the Y. W.
C.—A5-whe described the Educational, ad-
vance made in China by means of Govern.

denen the. streets. Sometmes Miss Low-
ber stopped to take a photograph; some
cimes the writer inquired of the guardians
of a little mosque the precise meaning oi
s; some
times the two of us sat in the yard of S.

watching the faces and movements of those
about. Always we saw the same thing. The
latticed wooden houses, the exquisite foun-
tain-edifices with pure water, free and cool,
on the street corner, the row of troughs
and taps where boys and men were alway:
washing themselves, under the mosque by
the bridge—the sellers of sweet meats and
“soft drinks” that cried through the steer
streets—these, like the transformed
churches, like the cypresses, like the mina-
rets straight as-a lance on parade, like
the piled domes-~-of mosques that. haunted
the vision and memory of every aspect of
the exqusite city, all révealed how the great
Capital was Asiatic, was Islamic.

‘The interior of every mosque confirmed |
what we had already ditined in the mu-
seum, that there was a completely Turkish
art, quite distinct from Arab or Persian,
just as there is a specifically Turkish lit-
erature, exemplified in the romantic. poem
“Rose and Nightingale,” and the popu-
lar racy tales ef Nasr-ed-din. The great
sixteenth-century style of building is a
true renaissance, which takes its departure
from S. Sophia, the elder by a thousand
years, -
As we sat daily in S. Sophia listening
to the familiar rise and fall. of voices in
the evening Office, or watching the com-

of

persuasive, calm, reasonable, we felt that
whatever the religion was like for which
Justinian raised that ample and_ lovely
donte in proud serenity, it was very like
indeed to what fills the vast space today,
far nearer than to the worship which goes
on at S. Peter’s or S. Paul’s, at Moscow
r Mt. Athos. The sanctuary and the
desoumin were in perfect harmony.
So when Admiral Bristol gave a lunch-
eon for President Thomas on board the
Scorpion, we realized anew that everyone
has remarked how those who have been.
thrown with the Turks are certain to like
them. An American naval commander
how stationed in the Black Sea confirmed
what we had already heard from a British
army. captain who was five months at
Gallipoli, that the Turk as a soldier was
no less honorable: than brave: “Fought
more like a gentleman than anybody else
in the war,” said the American officer at
the lunch-table.

success in business, but also of his ideals
in business dealing. The style is forceful

- Wanders, by Knut Hamsun. Although
an autobidgraphcal clement is— evident —in
practically: everything that Hamsun_ has
written, it is particularly marked in the
two stories, Under the Autmn Star and
A Wanderer Plays on Muted Strings, now
published under the common title The
Wanderers. Not only do they refer un-*
disguisedly “taken
out of Hamsun’s own lif@, but they mirror
his moods and thoughts during a certain

regarded as diaries of an unusually inti-

reader gets “the art which feveals the
story of the Falkenbergs by a process of
indirect approach equalled in its ingenuity
and verisimilitude Conrad’s best
efforts.” “form an-un-
broken cry of regret; and ghe object of: that
regret is the hey-dey of youth.” Hamsun’s
form is always fluid. In. the two. works
now published it approaches formlessness.
Under the Autumn Star is a mere sketch,
seemingly lacking both plan and plot, but
looking back ‘from the ironical epilogue
that closes A Wanderer Plays on Muted
Strings, one marvels at the art that could
work such a “complete totality out of such
a miscellany of unrelated fragments.”

What Prohibition Has Done to America,

by Fabian Franklin, is, says its author, “an

exposition of the fundamental issues of the |
law, of government, and of individual life
which are so. flagrantly sinned against by
the prohibition amendment. The Eigh-
teenth Amendment is treated with con-
tempt, the Volstead Act for its enforce-
ment is violated without compunction by
countless thousands of our best citizens.
It is idle to try to find out what is the
matter with these people; they are as good
as we have or can ever hope to have. The
thing to do is to find out what is the mat-
ter, not with the law-breakers, but with
the law. How the Eighteenth Amendment
is a crime against the Constitution of the
United States; how it violates the prin-
ciple which lies at the bottom of respect
for law; how it makes for despotism; these
and other aspects of national prohibition
are briefly discussed in this book.” Mr.

Franklin then proceeds with his discussion,

biassed ranceur. He damns with uncom-

“Tf it is allowed to stand there is no telling
in what quarter the next invasion of liberty
will be made by fanatics possessed with
the itch for perfection.”. In ruthless
