everything was quite au fait at this sec-
ond big weekly drill, After the physical
plebee there followed an extemporaneous
running game, won by Radnor.
A different set of exercises is ¢fven

Orchestra. now in process. of formation
may later play for the marching.
Singing has been part of the Bryn
Mawr drill program ever since the exer-
cises were first planned. It was sug-
gested by ex-Dean Marion Reilly ’01.
In men’s colleges, under the S. A. T. C.,
drill singing has come to be an essential
feature. It has been said that group sing-
ing of this: kind is the best weapon
against fatigue.
Every student soldier : becomes auto-
matically a member of the “‘glee club” of
the United States Army, and college “yell
leaders” have given way to song leaders
furnished by the government.

THE WAR CHEST EXPLAINED
Philadelphia was the pioneer of the War
Chest movement which the whole country
is following this November, Dr. Mutch
said in chapel last Monday morning.
To save the waste of motion, the mul-
tiplication of appeal as well as to keep
the spirit of generosity undulled the Red
Cross, Y. M. C. A., Y. W. C. A. drives are
now combined. The money is paid by the
month on remittance checks held by the
pledger.
“The military forces are twenty-five per
cent important, while the morale counts
seventy-five per cent,” said Dr. Mutch,
quoting Adam Smith. The Liberty Loan

team triumphed over the Graduates in a
speedy and hotly contested hockey game
last Saturday morning. The playing
throughout was very fast, and the ball
chased up and down the field continually,
followed closely by the evenly matched
teams.
The main strength of both teams lay
in their fullbacks, and it was only by un-
usual co-operation in their forward line
that the Freshmen made their one goal.
They showed better teamwork than their
opponents, but the Graduates atoned for
this by the individual playing of Miss
Hibbard, Miss Corstvet, and Miss Ander-
ton. E. Donahue was ’22’s brightest star.
The line-up was:
