PHILADELPHIA CRICKET
CLUB DEFEATS BRYN MAWR

Vaisity’s Speed in Second Half
Fails to Overcome Visitors’ Lead
Gained by Slow Start

ALUMNAE ON VISITING TEAM

Last Saturday morning the scarlet of
the Philadelphia Cricket Club flashed past
the brown of Varsity*for a 7-5 victory.

The slowness of Varsity in getting
started was largely responsible for its de-
feat, Philadelphia scoring 4 goals to Var-
sity’s 2 in the first half. .Most.of the
scrimmage was in front of Bryn Mawr’s
but after a neat dribble by F. Jay,
26, D. Lee, ’25, shot a goal. F. Jay also
scored in the first half.

~ In the second Varsity played beiter and
more accurately. The game grew more
exciting, M. Tyler, Philadelphia’s left in-
side, and D. Lee shooting goals in rapid
succession. F. Jay and W. Dodd, whose







line, was quick and clever, also scored.

Then the Philadelphia centre forward
passed all the backs and streaked down
the field, shooting a hard goal at the end.
A few minutes later she started another
dribble-and was only stopped by the bril-
liant attack of J. Seeley, ’27. A goal by
E. Martin, Philadelphia’s right inside,
ended the game, which was one of the
cleanest and most interesting played this
season,

DR. MEIKLEJOHN CALLS
DEMOCRACY RECKLESS VENTURE

Basic Virtues Are ce Objectivity Taste

Common Sense and Friendliness

“Democracy is the determination that
every member of the community shall
have a chance at life,” said Dr. Meikle-
john in Taylor last Wednesday.

“There are good things in life and it is
one’s plain duty to have them.”
virtue of friendliness—which with common
sense is one of the corollaries of objectivity
and the foundation of Democracy—is: this:
That one is just as anxious that another
should have these things. It makes no dif-
ference who has them:

“The important thing is that value
should be experienced.” The present and
very. silly reaction is, “If there’s anything
good in the world and others can’t have
it, I won’t either.” According to Democ-
racy it is not one’s duty to find one’#life
in serving others, nor_is- Democracy a doc-
trine of opportunity—the situation of every
man having a chance to rise above another
if he can.

Democracy means just friendliness, the
attempt of a group of people to live to-
gether, every man having a regard for
every other as of like value—not of like
power—with himself.

“All values are individual.” If one is
going to’ serve other lives they must be



“If you can have all the ‘people educated
individually you can have a democracy.”
Democracy gets its most essential expres-
sion in regard to children and its most
adequate expression in the field of educa-
tion... If we could give people intelligence
we .could give them control. “A vote
doesn’t give a person any more control
than he has understayding.”

Even. if all the hundred millions of
America. could be individually educated,
they must still learn to think as individuals
and as a group. This is where democracy
becomes a very reckless venture, bringing
together into order ‘all. those individually
educated minds. .

-Aristocracy ‘says, ‘Let a few do it-let
the rest be individuals within our under-
standing.” “Democracy says, “Every
human individual must try to understand
the whole social situation.”

“Intelligence isn’t a privilege in: a
democracy; it’s a duty.” You can’t-think
in groups-and have a democracy. But
people. must be allowed fo differ; you
have to be helped by differences. Those
who have to do with communicating ideas
should be of the nature of artists, with an
artist’s desire for truth.

“Democracy is: a -great acviatene: in
It would be a tremendous
achievement of human intelligence.”

AUNIOR PLAY GIVEN TO
APPRECIATIVE AUDIENCE

Realistic Woodland | Scene Sets Off

4 Amusing Portrayal of “Amazons”

by’ Uniformly Good Cast
FIRST COMEDY OF — PINERO

Simple, charming acting of an amus-



ting play,-with the-actors’ feeling for the-

reality of their stage, and a spontaneous
appreciation by the audience and. the
cast of each other, last Saturday eve-
ning, madé “The Amazons’ a trué success
for the class of 1926.

This’ subtle understanding of audience
and actor .grew with the lighting of
Lady Thomasin’s cigarette in the first
act, when the spirit of downtrodden sis-
terhood thrilled the atmosphere from
balcony to backdrop. The scenery and
costumes were both natural and artistic,
yet without the heaped-up details of a
Belasco realistic setting or the amateur’s
struggle to be aesthetic. “The Tangle”
of Overcote Park had a true country air;

perspective. The gymnasium scene was
admirably simple, yet suggestive. Ex-
cellent lighting varied the illusion from
afternoon ‘sunshine: to the bluish dark-
ness of 8 o'clock. In fact the chance to
wear evening dresses is supposed nowa-
ays to increase the popularity of a play.
(Perhaps that is why both Juniors and
Ethel Barrymore are partial to Pinero.)

In spite: of the short time for rehear-
sal the acting was easy and intelligent,
without the amateurish extremes of
drawling slowness and frenzied haste.
The high moments of the play, like the
entrance of Lady Castlejordan and the
ensuing mad rush to the closet, in the
last act, were quite realized. Martha
Talcott, as the Count de Grival, .and
Anne Linn, as the Earl of ‘T’weenways,
were delightful, especialy in their scenes
together. Miss Talcott managed her

VALUE OF COLLEGE EDUCATION

DISCUSSED BY LIBERAL CLUB

Bicsi of Series ‘o0 Probleme of Bidsestion
Led by Dr. De Laguna

Dr. De Laguna, Professor of Philoso-
phy,- opened the discussion, “Why Be
Educated?”, held in.the Christian Associa-
tion room of the Library under the aus-
pices of the Liberal Club, on Sunday, |
November 9, with the question: “What
do we hope to get out of our ——
education?” ‘
It was agreed that one result of a sihin
education is an intellectual interest in vari-
ous subject. Exactly what is that. intellec-
tual interest, and of. what use is it to us,
Dr. De Laguna went on to ask. Does it
unfit us for life by separating the drudgery



,of plain work from outside interests?

Dr. De Laguna asked whether the stu- *
dent with a purpose for the future did
the best work, and whether that purpose
should be professional.

The proposition that we “should study
only what we like was then discussed.
Dr. De Laguna closed the discussion with
the suggestion that set our own stand-
ards in work to get the out of ourseives,
and that we choose the subject for study in
which we are most successful.

THE BROADENING OF
Se UNIVERSITY IDEALS

( Thgeonnection with the series of articles
concerning student life in foreign countries,
the first of.which appears in this issue, Pres-
ident-Emeritus Hadley of Yale has written
the following editorial.)

In the Middle Ages, universities were
international in their character and influ-
_Their students came together from
mary countries: their teachers were
known and their degrees recognized
through the lerigth and breadth of Eu-
rope. Many historians believe that the
‘thing which first gave the schools of
‘Bologna or Paris and the colleges of Ox-
‘ford the right to claim the title of “Uni-
versity” was this international character;
ithat a university was distinguished from
ia college, not so much: bv having courses
of study: which covered the whole field
iof learning as by having a reputation

' But in the last two hundred years the
“learned world” has, gradually been get-
ting together again; and the‘ universiti
of different nations are far closer to one
another at,the beginning of the twentieth
century than they. were in the middle of
the eighteenth. This has been partly due
to improved means of travel and commu-
nication, which make it easier for mem-
bers*of different nations to see and’ know,
each other. but still more to the develop-:
ment of modern science—the scientific
study of history and politics, of physics:
and biology. For the student of science is
primarily concerned with discovering laws
of nations rather than with meeting re-
quirements of man, laws of nations which
are effective the whole world over,

The result has been that on the purely
intellectual side, the universities of the
world have: been brought very much
closer together in recent years. The

well what is going on in their department

purely intellectual side is not the whole of
life, nor does: it represent the whole of
university influence and character, To

Rhodes scholarships, international ex-
changes of sttidents, international partici-
pation in athletics or in ceremonials—all
these show a recognition of the need of
student contact as a means of getting the
world together. Under circumstances like
this, no apology js needed for the amount
of space which the NEWS proposes gto
devote to its accounts of foreign univer-

who think of pursuing studies abroad.
these articles are a recognition of the fact
that the American student interest no
longer centers wholly on the problem of
his own college campus. So far as higher
education is concerned,. he, is trying to
think in international terms.

point out a striking difference between the

dent of the College will buy champagne
all around!.
Social Element Supplied by the Colleges.

The social side of: Oxford-is-a thing by
itself. There is practically no bridge be-
tween the Colleges and the town; and the
few stray souls who visit the elderly ladies
of North Oxford at tea time on Sunday
afternoon getrerally do*so" under the-com-
pulsion of duty. There are no fraternities
—perhaps the Colleges provide on a large
scale that intimacy which fraternities and
clubs provide in the United States. But
there are innumerable clubs with some
purpose-—;Liberal, Conservative, Dramatic,
Sporting, Literary, Scientific—with a
membership drawn from the whole Uni-
versity and with small club rooms of their
own.

social pretensions, stands the Oxford
Union, Generations of ‘Oxford men have
belonged to it, many of the leading states-
men of the British Empire have fought
political battles and gained their first par-

doubt whether the House of Commons
itself has been the scene of more bitter
skirmishes than have taken place in the
‘Oxford Union.

It is so pre-eininently bound up ‘in the
history of the University and in the long
tale of British politics ‘that all-of us who
}were in Oxford in 1912 were proud be-
jyond measure that an American was
,elected for the first time to be its: presi-
ident. Certainly the United States never
‘sent.a more worthy representative abroad
than Bill Bland, of Kenyon and of Lin-
‘coln College, Oxford. Hé gave up his
life in France.

,. War Wound Still Unhedied.

I sei Oxford intimately before the
‘war, and I went back again in 1919. Out-

'morial buildings stood there. still, the
‘streets gave mutch the same appearance
as before. Here a new tradesman had
come to take the place of a favorite
‘tobacco shop; therg one might see a relic
‘of the days when Oxford made soldiers
instead of scholars. .But the lawns were
‘clipped and green, the river flowed as
softly as before, and the rain was falling
las ‘relentlessly as if it -had not stopped
‘once during the intervening years.

, Anew generation of men were in resi-
\dence—somewhat more seriowsS in their
purpose, somewhat: more restless against
ithe old txaditions, somewhat more revo-
‘lutionary in their insistence that the cur-
‘riculum should be brought “up to date.”
‘The older men who had been.at Oxford i in
‘other. years went again about their works,
‘but as they went they walked apart,.as if —
‘to speak with those whom they. had
‘spoken with before the war. “Time is a

French accent and ther mannerisms very
skilfully, overacting just enough to“make |
the part convincing, but never becoming
false or grotesque. ,Her “doncher know”
and “dam’fall,” brought laughs that test-
ed the endurance of the running track.
She made.even her back eloquent as she
sat at the piano in the last act. .Tween-’
ways was not merely a type, a pompous
Britisher with an ill-fitting monocle and
an accent like the estate of the “nouveaux
riches”; Ke was cleverly made a real char-
acter, a puny bilious aristocrat, obsessed
with family ailments and traditions. With
his big head, vacant, cordial smile, and
‘imp hands, he was like a Juke or-a

_ Kallikak of the aristocracy. The appear-

ance of the harassed de Grival and
T weenways, falling over.fences to es-
cape the Hereford bulls, crawling under
gates, and sliding down ropes, was like
the entrance of one of those hapless
vaudeville teams illustrating the maxim
that people laugh at other people’s mis-
fortunes. .

Anne Tierney also showed comic per-
ception in her acting of the Rev. Roger
Minchin, a clergyman of the “Dearly Be-
type; with the shovel
hat, side-whiskers, and bed-side man-
ner, and the “genuine” English accent
was a pleasure.

As the Marchioness af Castlejordan,
Anne Adams was clever in her use of
humorous pathos and in getting over her

. funniest lines; but she sadly lacked the

“Grand Manner.” Nor did she look like
a woman. who “should have had a six-
foot son.” Her three daughters could
not sien have ‘been better contrasted
in type. Grove Thomas, as . Noeline,
acted gracefully and warmly; her per-
formance was especially sensitive and
sincere. . Lady Thomasin, the cheerful,
naive tomboy, was made very attractive
by Winifred Dodd, and Wilhelmina,
youngest and most feminine, was played
understandingly by Helen Brown.

As Viscount Litterly, the hero, ‘Edith
Nichols was perhaps the most charming
person on the stage. easily,
using just enough change of expression
in the various situations, and suiting her
role in voice, appearance and manner, she
was a delightful hero of the healthy,
happy type..

The servants were nicely played. Fit-
ton, the gamekeeper, went especially

' well in the surroundings of Overcote

Park

The performance as a whole was ex-
cellent; there was real comedy in it. To
those who deserted “The Amazons” to
wave a flag at the Harvard-Yale game, one
quotes Lady Castlejordan’s. lines, “Damn it,

Miriam, you missed a season’s hunting for |

nothing.”

How Philippine Students Do It. _
Eight hundred brown-skinned students
from 40 provinces vote together and rule
themselves in a school republic that exists
in the heart of the Philippine Islands,
says an article in Zhe Hilltop (Howard
University, Washington, D. C.)

Hard-working students elect their own
officials, have their own police force, run
their own bank, store and farms, and
carry on in common all the activities ofra
municipal community.

They have a live organization made up
of students who are working their way
through college—entering with nothing,
receiving no support from charity, and, in
some cases, coming out with enough to
start little farms of their own. . English
is the language in vogue. ;

The course at Munoz is one of four
years. Pupils are admitted on examina-
tion or on-certificate from other schools,
and the place is so popular that more
than 1000 applicants are turned away
every year. gas

The government of thé school. is run
by the boys. They elect their president,
make laws, and choose policemen to en-
force ‘them. ‘They have what is called a
students’ council for each’ group of stu-
dents. Each of these groups elects mem-
bers to the general coungil, which has
regular meetings. The il of the pun-
ishments are fines.

JUNIOR PLAY SUCCESSFUL °

°CONTINUED FROM PAGE 1

French accent and ther mannerisms very
skilfully, overacting just enough to“make |
the part convincing, but never becoming
false or grotesque. ,Her “doncher know”
and “dam’fall,” brought laughs that test-
ed the endurance of the running track.
She made.even her back eloquent as she
sat at the piano in the last act. .Tween-’
ways was not merely a type, a pompous
Britisher with an ill-fitting monocle and
an accent like the estate of the “nouveaux
riches”; Ke was cleverly made a real char-
acter, a puny bilious aristocrat, obsessed
with family ailments and traditions. With
his big head, vacant, cordial smile, and
‘imp hands, he was like a Juke or-a

_ Kallikak of the aristocracy. The appear-

ance of the harassed de Grival and
T weenways, falling over.fences to es-
cape the Hereford bulls, crawling under
gates, and sliding down ropes, was like
the entrance of one of those hapless
vaudeville teams illustrating the maxim
that people laugh at other people’s mis-
fortunes. .

Anne Tierney also showed comic per-
ception in her acting of the Rev. Roger
Minchin, a clergyman of the “Dearly Be-
type; with the shovel
hat, side-whiskers, and bed-side man-
ner, and the “genuine” English accent
was a pleasure.

As the Marchioness af Castlejordan,
Anne Adams was clever in her use of
humorous pathos and in getting over her

. funniest lines; but she sadly lacked the

“Grand Manner.” Nor did she look like
a woman. who “should have had a six-
foot son.” Her three daughters could
not sien have ‘been better contrasted
in type. Grove Thomas, as . Noeline,
acted gracefully and warmly; her per-
formance was especially sensitive and
sincere. . Lady Thomasin, the cheerful,
naive tomboy, was made very attractive
by Winifred Dodd, and Wilhelmina,
youngest and most feminine, was played
understandingly by Helen Brown.

As Viscount Litterly, the hero, ‘Edith
Nichols was perhaps the most charming
person on the stage. easily,
using just enough change of expression
in the various situations, and suiting her
role in voice, appearance and manner, she
was a delightful hero of the healthy,
happy type..

The servants were nicely played. Fit-
ton, the gamekeeper, went especially

' well in the surroundings of Overcote

Park

The performance as a whole was ex-
cellent; there was real comedy in it. To
those who deserted “The Amazons” to
wave a flag at the Harvard-Yale game, one
quotes Lady Castlejordan’s. lines, “Damn it,

Miriam, you missed a season’s hunting for |

nothing.”

DIFFICULT GAME WITH TEMPLE

UNIVERSITY A VARSITY VICTORY

-Hotly Contested Game Finally Won By

Brown Team, With 3-1'Score
Varsity’s battle with Temple University
last Friday afternoon, victorious by 3-1;
s the roughest and most bitterly con-
Breed strugate of the season,

Scarcely a foot was yielded without a
Pretty passes were blocked, swift
shooting checked by swifter lunges.

Each player seemed to be using every
ounce of her strength. B. Loines, ’28,
made a beautiful rush up-field until
Stopped ‘before the goal, J. Seeley, ’27,
proved the mainstay of the back line, cov-
ering the entire field and seeming to be

~always-where-she-was-most-needed.

The line-up was:

Temple—Margerum, Brinton, Sharp,
Crenshaw, Borton, Brogden, Desenberg,
Helwig, Castor, Slifer, Krusen. (Whitacre
for Brinton.) . :

Varsity—B. Loines, ’28; R: Miller, ’27;
D. Lee, 25; . W. Dodd, ’26; E. Smith,
gf i nam fa B Walker, "25; J. Seeley, ’27; S. V.
’27; E. Harris, ’26; K. Bowler,’
‘25: M. Gatiiner, ’25. (Tuttle for R. Mil-
ler in the first half, M. Talcott for W.
Dodd, E. Harris for E. Smith. Second

“half, F. Jay for R. Miller.)



FIRST TEAMS
_1925—1926 eg:

Appropriate, if not convenient, was
the large bulldog who delayed for ten
minutes the first team game which re-
sulted in a score of 6-3 in favor of 1926.

Nineteen twenty-five played with the pro-
verbial canine tenacity; the wild, but often
effective, defense of E. Glessner, ’25, and
the heroic stopping of M. Gardiner. 25,
‘the red goal were especially detetthined.
D. Lee, ’25, starred once with a beautiful
goal shot, but '25 failedto give its for-
wards much opportunity for action and
when they did get the ball, G. Macy, 26, was
an effective baulk.

The Junior team work and technique
was better thane, re @Hior defense. M.
Talcott, ’26, inithe Wing, and-F. Jay and
W. Dodd in the “forward line, play
ball. in a telling three- -cornered forma-
tion, and it was ge rally true of the dark-
blue team that sei they. got’ the ball they
knew how to hit it. * |

The line-up was: Kes

FIRST TEAMS
1927 vs. 1928.

1927 succeeded in defeating the Fresh

men ina hard- fought game. last Thursday
with the score of 6-2.

» The game was fast; every play bias

hotly contested. 1928’s work was. good,

but. the superior organization of: 1927 car-

ried the day.

A swift start from the centre with R.
- Miller, ’27, leading the Green forwards
down the field, opened the game> The ball
traveled from circle to circle, but few
goals were shot. The long fast dribbles
\ of R. Elting, ’28, were successful in elud-
ing 1927’s backs until the 25-yard _line,
where their ‘interference was invariably
successful. The Green forwards passed

_ unnecessafily in the circle, but were saved

by the stalwart defense of S. Walker, dds

and A. Mathew, | "27. ri

SECOND TEAMS
1927—1928

By the score of 9-6 in their favor, the
Freshmen beat the Sophomores last
Wednesday in a game resembliitg a cir-
cus clown-act.

Tumbling, unnecessary running 3bout
the field, and sloppy stick work marked
the game; 1927’s defense, with the’ ex-
ception of C. Swift, ’27,. was about as
effective asa sieve. H. Yandall, ‘28, in
both speed-and efficiency, starred on the
Freshman team. - ny

In spite of the tie score, 4-4, the first
half was mediocre ‘and: uninteresting. .

In the second: half, both teams, be-
coming excited, rushed wildly up and
down the field hitting the ball at random.
E. Brodie, '27, after a spectacular dash
the length of the field, scored neatly for
| the Sophomores, For the remainder—of
the time 1928 took thé Offensive and
broke through 1927’s defense unopposed:

Line-up: ®

SECOND TEAM
1925 vs. 1926.
The second team »game between the
Seniors and the Juniors last Thursday re-
sulted in a victory¥for Dark Blue, 7-3.

The Juniors had a stronger team than
1925, espepially in their forward line.~ The
game was messy, for the entire field fol-
lowed the ball in all its wanderings. V.
Cooke, thé centre forward for 1926, held
the team together well and’ was strong
in attacking,

The line-up was:

1925—S, Anderson, E. Hinkley*, E. ‘Law-
rence*, Saunders*) FE. Bradley, M. Castle-
man, C. Coney, M. M. Dunn, H. Her-

“Social discontent ‘has: been increased |

by the mistake of the government in plac-
ing emphasis on higher education to the
neglect of wider educatio:f. India is top-
heavy with higher education. _ Finding
themselves without the possibility of em-

. ployment, large numbers of well-educated

men become agitators. Meanwhile 94

per cent. of the population is still illiter-.

ate, only one out of 10 boys and one out
of 44 girls of school-going age attend
school; If education had_ been «wider,
India would be more capable of under-
taking the much demanded self-govern-
ment.

“If England weré in India for, no other
reason, it is good she is there if only to
keep the. Hindus and Mohammedans
from warring with each other.” This, he

_feels, they would certainly do if left to

themselves. hres eee ~

The elevation of these

castes in India.
“untouchables” is ‘the chief program of
Mr.,Gandhi, who,, according to Dr. Wan-
less, feels that so long as. the oiftcastes
are shunned, the country is not fit for
democratic rule.

“If India were given home rule today,

it would be home rule by the classes not
by the masses.” Social uplift, sanitation,
medical care and provision: for the physi-
cal needs ofthe masses must come first.
Self-government should follow through a
process of slow evolution. “ 3
