Sweetbriar Proves Most Able Op-

-This Year
REMAK SCORES FIFTEEN GOALS
Confronted by Sweetbrier, the best bisa
ketball team which has opposed it thi8 year,
Varsity won another victory last Saturday
afternoon, with a score of 36-26.
The Bryn Mawr team played’ a
quicker game, and their passing was=much
more accurate than. last week; all the
players showed a decided improvement.
Though - F. Martin’s opponent could out-
jump her at center, she &’nd. M, Palache
“maintained their usual. rapid. run. of
passes in the face of skillful and deter-
mined opposition. C. Remak,,’25, and’ H.
Rice, ’23, worked well together, passing
intelligently and keeping. the ball in their
territory.’ The ball once in Remak’s
hands, it was almost impossible to prevent
her from scoring. The guards: had—the
hardest positions to ‘fill, for Sweetbriar’s
forwards were extraordinarily ‘good, and

Team at Long, Hard Shooting
tar
Playing to a—man_as_if- inspired, the
Seniors _ overwhelmingly defeated
with a score of 13-1 in the first game of the
foals Monday afternoon.
The team, a solid afd infallible unit in
the pool, totally eclipsed the efforts of their
opponents, and each individual play tran-
scended, the. preceding«ane in its lightning
quickness and accuracy. 1924 was slow
and confused. They passed as a rule into
the very arms of the’ enemy. The for-
wards ‘scarcely ever escaped their guards,
their shooting was weak and _ erratic.
Though the long low passes of H. Rice
and J. Ward, ’23, were most difficult to
stop, they were left unguarded too often.
F. Martin surpassed even herself in the
goal, and V. Corse.and F. Mattison inter-
cepted evefy play that escaped H. Rice.
A. Smith and D..Meserve with great spirit
and almost as much skill ‘peppered - K.
VanBibber with shots, and drawing upon
themselves the attention of the Blue de-
fense, who left Rice and Ward free to
make one beautiful shot after another.
Line-up for Monday:
1923—J. Ward******,
Smith*,
son, F. Martin.
1924—E. Tuttle, F. Begg, M. Smith*, M.

tics of their opponents, 1925’s first team
went down to defeat at the hands of ‘the
Seniots, who won the final game of the
preliminary match by a score of =i last
Thursday night.
The Red guards worked hard, endeavor-
ing to block the Senior passes, but could
not stop the swift onrush. H. Rice’s long
shots to D. Meserve, who shot the ball
into the goal, proved’ most effective, and the
team play between: them was impossible ‘to

Dr. Carpenter ‘Explains ‘Importance
of Heretic Pharaoh’s Reign
Speaking in Chapel on Monday morning.
on Lord Carnavon’s discoveries at Luxot,
Dr. Rhys Carpenter, Professor of Arche-
ology, strongly emphasized the significance
of Tutenkhamon’s reign and’ the probable
light which the paintings’ and-other records
in the tomb would throw on Egyptian his-
tory... Dr. ‘Carpenter’s speech was as
follows:
Tutenkhamon was the last of the heretics
and was himself an enforced-renegade back
to orthodoxy. His father-in-law, Akhna-
ton, has often beey considered the most
remarkable figure ‘in’ Egyptian history.
Coming to the throne of, a vast empire
which stretched from the .Sudan to the
Euphrates, he deliberately renounced im-
perialism, militarism, the traditional polit-
ical life of a Pharaoh, and the state relig-
ion of.his predecessors. He turned away
from the great city of Thebes to build for
himself and his court a new city all their
own, and there he retired to enjoy and
encourage art, to devote himself to his
family, and most of all.to spread his
heretic faith in a One Eternal God, mani-
fest to man as the disk of the sun, the
‘source of life. "Fhe new faithgewas car-
ried as far as Palestine and there may
have vitally and permanently affected the
Jewish religion. But in Egypt it had no
career and barely outlived its ardent and
youthful expounder, the king Akhnaton.
+Tutenkhamon was the last to uphold it,
and he found it wise to change his name
H. Rice*****, V. Corse, F. Mattie’ from Tutenkhaton to Tutenkhamon as
public proof that he had turned away
from the worship of the sundisk (Aton)
to the traditional rites of Amon. He also
/seems to have changed his royal residence
and -moved back to “Thebes,
brand new city of heresy to moulder and
be forgotten.
The hope of learning more about this
extraordinary religious moyement in which.
heresy’ was so soon followed by apostasy,
is one of the sources of especial interest
in the newly found tomb.
Tutenkhamon belongs to the XVIIIth .
Dynasty and must -have died’ shortly be-.
fore 1350 B. C. Im those days the Phar“
aohs had given up the practice of having
themselves ‘buried in the heart of huge
stone pyramids and instead were laid away

BRYN MAWR ASKED TO HELP
RESTORE LOUVAIN LIBRARY
Drive for Funds to be ‘Held Next
Monday in Taylor
(Specially Contributed by F--Martin, ’23;
President of the Undergraduate
- Association)
To help rebuild a library which has con-
tributed immensely to past scholarship, and
which, with our assistance, may be
for the advancement of future
scholars, should appeal to us~as college
students. An appeal for the support of
this project, the rebuilding of the Louvain
Library, destroyed by the Germans in 1914,
has been made to, the colleges, universities,
preparatory: and public schools of “America,
as representing the-scholastic world of this
country. What could be more appropriate
than our joining to give to fellow students
an inspiration for intellectual work as
well as a much-needed place in which to
lodge the books, many of them ‘priceless,
which for lack of a library are lying about,
stored in.dusty crates and boxes?
rc
Next Monday, February 26, there will
be a drive under the chairmanship of C.
Remak, ’25, to raise money for our con-
tribution toward the _ restoration of the
library. The faculty have already contrib-
uted $65. This year it has: been the-aim
of both the Christian and Undergraduate
Associations to’ make as’ few financial de-
mands as possible upon the student body.
It is hoped by having fewer drives that
those which ‘are organized will be more
profitable for the interests involved.

throughout. Never has word of complaint
or cavil crossed their lips, and we, spec-
tators and combatants, wish to congratulate
and thank them.

was diverted from this pitiable sight by a
clatter of sabots. In walked L. Sanford,
not Al-Shaldomir’s seductive queen, but a
simple village-child, clad in blue and carry-.
ing a milk pail. Slowly brought to life by
this ravishing creature, the scarecrow exe-
cuted a number of random movements,
all indubitably those of a Shy suitor, and
for his further . subjugation the maiden
danced a most charming clog, the click of
her sabots syncopating effectively with the
music. The scarecrow gesticulated fran-
tically to be unhitched, and, once free, flung
himself about in such an astoundingly
loose-jointed and ungainly whirl of move-
ments that the spectators held their breaths
and. applauded the skin from their palms.

in blue jeans and a rakish straw hat, and
L. Sanford left the scarecrow huddled in
grief on the ground to speed after the

onto the stage, dressed in Harlequin’s

SUNDAY PHILOSOPHERS DISAGREE
ON “LOYALTY” AND “FAITH”
Meeting Directed by Dr. de Laguna, Tak-
_ing Place Alternate Sundays
“ :
Meeting under the .direction of Dr. ;
Theodore de Laguna in the Christian Asso- ”
ciation Ibrary last Sunday, a group from
the General Philosophy class discussed in-
formally the subjects, ““Loyalty” and
“Faith.” ®
Dr. de Laguna proposed topics for argu-
ment. which were seized upon -by his hear-
ers, and almost every possible side was
vehemently supported by one or another of »
them. Thére seerhed to Ae ‘a general divi-
sion of opinion, one part believing loyalty
to be a fine and noble thing, not arising
out of cold logic, while the other believed
it a-“stupid weakness” if it was not
founded” on “judgment and calculation:
Though Dr. de Laguna remained heutral
to the last, he finally declared in. favor of
the former opinion. i
“Is a pacifist loyal?” was, one of the -
questions most discussed. Given a country
already in war, one of its’ citizens, a paci-
fist, refuses to endorse war in his own
person, refuses to take part in it. Is he
loyal to his country?, On the other hand,
is the pacifist whodlar declared, fights,
saying all the time, “I don’t believé in
war,” loyal to his own ideals? Ought
military exemption be granted to those
who have a religion or conscientious
scruples that forbid war? A very promi-
nent Quaker, during the. World War, re-
quested that there be no exemption for
Quakers because of their_anti-militant be-
liefs. refusing at the same time to fight;
and, said that. he was quite willing to pay
the penalty. This Quaker, Dr. de Laguna
compared to Socrates, who was put to death
because he refused to act against his be-
liefs, and who declined an opportunity to
escape the penalty of the law, saying that
he would suffer that Which he had incurred.
This brought up the question of whether
it is contempt of law publicly to disobey~.
it, with no effort to conceal the crime or
avoid. the punishment. .
Meetings will take place every other Su.-
day, and the topic for March 5 is “Selec-
tion of Coursés in College Education.”

And how the hearts of all fluttered as

Just as a horse passes another in the race—
first the neck, then the withers, etc., so
Beckmesser emerged from the ‘wings—
first -his midriff, then his chest—and so on
until the whole. glorious spectacle was un-
folded to the complete apoplexy of the
house. The ’song sung as indeed no one
else could sing “it,, Eva was placed. before
the winner, and the culminating touch was
reached; as all frequenters of Grand Opera
must know, when they found themselves
quite powerless to embrace. The actors.
were not at all-loath to show themselves
before the curtain, and outdid each other,
in the traditional manner, in the profundity
of their obeisance and their efforts to push
each other into the background. M. Free-
man, the conductor, was’ led out in re-
sponse to the calls from the audience, and
“bravos” of wild enthusiasm were showered
upon all.
__ Entertaining in_an entirely different field
was the very graceful dancing of E. Pear- -
son, dressed in a pleated white skirt and
blue sweater. The evening concluded with
a lucky number dance, the winners being |
M. Fischer, ’24, and M. Lewis, ’26.. From
the gallery great praise was given to some
of the couples, their dress and their danc-
ing, and especially to S. McAdoo, ’26, in
dark blue chiffon velvet with a girdle of
silver leaves, blue stockings and. slippers,
and to ‘her partner, M. Wiley, ’26, who ©
wore a green georgette draped in lal
lines, with silver slippers matching the

1923 Vs. 1925
Depending on their individual stars, the
Seniors won an easy victory of 8-2 against
the Sopliomores in the second team pre-
liminaries last Friday.
The Senior halfback, F. Matteson; played
a strong offensive game, .shooting
and backing up her forwards so effectively
that she threw no extra defense work on
her fullbacks. In-spite of the determined
resistance of the Red defense, the Senior
forwards were able *to elude their guards
and threaten the goal.
Sophomores Won First Game
An exgting struggle between the Seniors
and Sophomores resulted in the victory of
1925 with‘a score of 3-2 on February, 13.
Although “at” first” stow. and--scrappy and
marked by long ~ throws,” followed" ~ by
fumbles,’ the game. improved — greatly

Red team got in Some good pass work:
Although the Greens managed to get the
ball down the pool- they were kept from
scoring by -1925’s strong. defense and the
quick shots: of M. Blumenstock, halfback,
who cleverly managed to elude her guard.
A clean,.intelligent shot by E.. Vineent, ’23,
at the end of the ‘game. brought up the
score for the Seniors.

In the meanwhile seventy-five girls in
the school building had assembled in the
front hall in fee*drill formation, where
they were told that there was no danger
and_were sent hack to bed. According to
one of them, they were greatly amused
when the papers next day informed them
in lurid. columns that “the girls stood shiv-

until Baldwin and Shipley Schools took
them in and gave them coffee and

Upon-the arrival of the fire company, the

such an extent that they were held down
to a score of 3-1. Finding that their only
chance lay in passing and quick shots the
Seniors fumbled less with the ball in the
second half and passed, more quickly to
their forwards. R. Marshall was the most '
dependable of the Senior forwards, shoot-
ing whenever she was given an opening,
and¢scoring four consecutive goals in the

A fast but inaccurate game between -
1923. and 1925 on third resulted in a tie,
3-3, last Thursday. al
Kelying on the sure plays-of E. Gleidisee,
1925 played hard but was unable to score
during the first half... R. Marshall; who..,
fiad many chances to shoot, since she was
often. unguarded, frequently..managed. to
bring the ball down, toward her goal, only
to lose it to thetfRed backs. The second
half, more exciting because it was faster,
was still scrappy. ‘The. long passes were
uncertain and brought the sth i the
middle of the pool, giving little opportunity
for shooting and. good team work. M.
Blumenstock, 1925’s most outstanding for-

IN THE*NEW BOOK ROOM
Gordon at Kartoum, by Sir Wilfrid
Scawen Blunt, in continuation of A Secrel
History..of_.the_English Occupation _ of.
Egypt, is in the form of a diary kept by
the author during the time of which ‘he
writes. The period treated -here, between
1882 and 1886, is, says Sir Wilfrid, the
darkest in the whole: Anglo-Egyptian rec-
ord,-a monument. indeed. of perverse un-
wisdom recognized by all. To direct thosc
in power to adopt an attitude toward the
Mohammedan world less antagonistic than
in the past, and to makeelear how immense
a wrong was inflicted by the English mis-
management of affairs at Cairo, not only
on Egypt and the Upper Nile, but ‘on all
Mohammedan lands, is the purpose of this
book. Its author shows that European ac-
tion alone -was the initial cause of the
trouble, that the fanatical character of the
Soudanese revolt was-due solely to the in-
tervention of the Christian’ powers at
Cairo, and that its extent and violence were
increased by each successive, step of Eng-
dish intervention. He completely exoner-
ases Gordon, a man “of superlative moral
ey
merit,” for the failure of his fatal mission
to Kartoum. “My personal position,” says
Blunt, “was one singularly advantageous
for my present purpose of accurate narra-
tion... Occupying no official post, I found
myself a deeply interested spectator bhe-
hind the official scenes in London, as. well
as behind those of the Oriental world, . .
close enough» to the chief personages to
observe the details of their action, and in
near view of the machinery used for their
stage effects.”

Colleges have escaped church and trustee

two kinds of alumni, those “who never tire
of rah-rahing to their -alma -mater, .and
partake heavily of the, joys of class re-
unions and the ‘simple’ stunts of Alumni
Day,” and those “who have until recently

suggests two “cardinal virtues” which the
college graduate must acquire to change
this; “a mind alert to matters of educa-
tional import everywhere, and a spirit not
wise in its own conceit but quick*to give
support to the expert in education.”

horrible fate for a dead man existed for |
the Egyptian mind. When the plundering
was discovered, the poor, desecrated kings fF
were removed from their violatéd graves
and secretly and, hastily were reburied all
together, shorn of much of their treasure’
of high estate. So fared the. greatest
kin@s of the XVIIIth Dynasty; but, by
gome freak of fortune the ancien, tomb-
- robbers, though they found’ and: entered
the tomb of this rather unimportant ruler,
Tutenkhamon, were detected before they
could ‘properly pillage it. The tomb was
résealed and in-some way protected from
further molestation until, the knowledge of
tts whereabouts died out. By an accident
it was never again discovered until the
scientific plunderers of today (who to an
ancient Egyptian would be no less impiaus
and abhorrent than any common theif) at
last happened on the buried entrance-way.
You will see from this why the discovery
of a practically intact royal tomb of the
XVIIIth Dynasty is art event of the great-
. est rarity and interest to Egyptology.
Lastly, the Very period in which Tutenk-
hanfon lived, chances to be one of the
most interesting epochs in the entire 3000
years during which Egyptian art was ac-
tive. You will remember that Akhnaton
the Heretic built himself a new city and
was a great fosterer of art. In art as in
religion he seems to have been-a revolu-
tionist, an enemy of old conventions. The
shining sun was god enough for religion,
and the shining sunlit earth was master
enough for art. The king was_an advocate
of naturalism, a fresh turning to Nature,
to individual expression of one’s own: de-
light in the world of: sense.
