Emphasizes Varsity Dramatics
and Curriculum Committee

NEXT YEAR TO TEST CHANGES

At a meeting of the Undergraduate As-
sociation Wednesday, April 15, at



on:

*seven-thirty, in Taylor Hall, A. Johnston,

‘26, was-clected- president-of-the-Associa-
tion for the coming year. Plans for the
Students’ Bhilding were discussed; it will
include an auditorium’ or auditoriums
with a capacity of 600-or 1500, rooms ‘for
scenery and costumes, and rooms for the
associations and periodicals, about which
the presidents are. now being consulted,

L.. Barber, ’25, retiring president, sub-
mitted her report, in which she described
the work of the Association during the
past year.

Of the legislature, she said that “first,
it guaranteed a quorum, and secondly, it
insured a wider and more _ intelligent
knowledge of the business at hand.”

“Within the. Association,” she went on,

“other important changes have been
' made. First and foremost is the new
position of the Curriculum Committee.

Last fall it became apparent’ that the
committee must come to some sort of an
agreement with the faculty or dissolve.
President Park said that the Faculty
Curriculum Commigtee would probably
be very glad to have a joint meeting to
discuss the situation. This meeting was
held carly in the second semester with
the following results which are embodied
in the constitution of the committee:

“The function of the Curriculum Com-
mittee shall be to formulate its own
opinions and to obtain information upon
college opinion concerning the college
opinion at the a request of the
faculty,

“Reports handed in to the faculty shall
state separately the vote of each class and
the vote of the committeé. In case of a
divis‘on of opinion in the committee, the
c'asses of the voters shall be apecified:

four Juniors, three Sophomores
and two Freshmen, from which at least
three Juniors, two Sophomores, and one
Freshman must be appointed for the fol-
lowing year.

FIRST FENCING MATCH LOST
TO PENNSYLVANIA TEAM





Defeat For Less Experienced



In Bryn Mawrt’s first fencing match,
which took place last Thursday evening,
the honors went to the University of
Pennsylvania with a winning score of 10
to 6. The Pennsylvania team showed
better offensive work, and in the first
few matches put Bryn Mawr altogether
on the defensive. Towards the end Bryn
Mawr gained confidence and won six
matches in close succession. The Bryn
Mawr team was more alert than the Penn-
sylvania girls, but showed a decided lack
of experience. E. Millspaugh, ’26, starred
for Bryn Mawr, winning three out of four
matches. :

Both teams had been _ previously
coached by Mr. Leonardo Terrone, so the
contest was more a matter. of practice
than preparatory instruction. The judges

Eastern Pennsylvania the

VARSITY PLAY SHOWS :
GREAT HARMONY OF WHOLE *

School -for Scandal couffts death

new high standard







GAY WORLD OF SHERIDAN STAGED



contributed by Katharine
Ward, °21.)°

Many of those who say the Varsity pro-
duction of The School for Scandal last
Friday and. Saturday ‘waited in particular
for an answer to the question “Are Varsity
Dramatics enough better than class plays
to warrant the supplanting of the latter?”
To. one observer at least the answer séemed
obviously to be in the affirmative, and for
We are used to charming set-

tings in our class plays,
tumes, and to several good actors in each
cast, but we have not been accustomed to
seeing plays in which the minor roles’ were
really ably sustained, in which consequently
the total effect was satisfactory. In this
our most recent Bryn Mawr _ production,
however, the general level of the acting was
so high that one could not but feel that
the day of the class play had gone forever.

One ‘finds it difficult to comment sepa-
rately upon the single qualities of our School
for Scandal—its costuming, scenery, music
—hecause of the unusual harmony of the
whole. But even the layman could not be
unaware of the skill which went to the
achieving of this harmony—the subtlety with
which the colors of costume and “setting
were blended, thes charm of the musical
entries and exits, the delicacy of the pan-
tomime by which the awkwardness of the
usual amateur curtains was avoided.

To this sophisticated, gaily-colored world,
Scandal seemed
completely attuned. Lady Teazle as played
by Miss White had quite shaken off her
country manners, had acquired indeed some-
thing of the tension and nervousness one
recognizes as part of city life. While shé
lacked the genuine high spirits which alone
can excuse her verbal cruelties. to Sir
Peter, her vivacity of expression and gesture
was charming. In the scandal scene, Lady |

| REMINISCENCES OF WAGNER >
IN TALK/TO GERMAN CLUB

Mrs. Charles Hollander pais Life
and Work Of Composer





“An Intimate VieW of Wagner” was the
subject of Mrs. Charles Hollander’s talk,
given in German at the: meeting of the
German Club, April 14. “Musician, dra-
matist, philosopher, historian, ,aesthete,
poet, philologist, novelist, mythologist,
Wagner and his many difficulties and ad-
ventures,” said Mrs. Hollander, “are al-
most beyond the comprehension and
sympathy of our generation.”

Born in Leipzig in 1813, Richard Wag-
ner early showed the traits which were
to color his life, such as a love for the
‘theatre, , for study, and for the beauties





of art and nature. rei many of his con-

Paris, London,. Berlin, Copenhagen, were
very miserable for him, though he met
many famous men And wrote novels poe
praised at the time. His health was poof,
his wife uncongenial, and his shiftlessness
and selfish antagonism had made him
many eneniies.. It is interesting to note
that he was then an adherent of the pifil-
osophy of Schopenhauer. In these years,
however, he completed the operas Der Flie-
gender Hollander, Tannhauser, and the
libretto of The Ring.

The orchestration of the Wagner operas
requires a sunken orchestra, a thing un-
‘heard of at that time and not realized
until the opening of the Bayreuth. House,
where the first series of Opéra Festivals
were given, es

“At Das Rheingoid” said Mrs. Hollan-
der, “my father sat next to the great
critic, Hanslick, in this theatre and heard
him express his disapproval of Wagner.
It is difficult for us to see why so com-
petent a critic was bitterly opposed to
Wagner; the true reason lay in Wag-
ner’s personal attitude. He wrote music
for music’s sake and brought on Hans-
lick’s opposition by satirizing him and
critics in general as Beckmesser in Die
Meistersinger.

“Today, when the i pee al and
unpleasantness of his personality are for-
gotten, Wagner has come into his own
and is recognized as one of the world’s
greatest ~composers, dramatists and poets.
His operas are loved by even those who
do not ‘understand’ music. They have
been a fundamental influence in my life,”
said Mrs. Hollander in conclusion, “from
the. time when, as a child, I heard my owh
uncle, Lugen Sura, and his friends in the
great Wagner roles.”

Make Room In Your Thoughts For
The Contributions Of Science

“Tam attempting to set you thinking
about a very serious question,” said. J.
Cheney, ’27, speaking in Vespers last Sun-
day night. ,

But_I think it is_ap-
palling that we should face with cow-
ardice certain scientific facts which tend
to destroy our traditional belief. We also
look only on the dark side.

“Before I’ go on I wish to say that I
am not denouncing the value of Chris-
tianity in this world. Christ is the great-
est example of high living we have ever
had, and we must keep His’ personality in
our thoughts. You may at times think I
am being entirely destructive, but I hope
to build up where I have torn down, and
ask you to be patient.

“I am speaking to two types of peo-
ple; those who place hope in the orthodox
Christian faith, but who find it a bit un-
satisfactory, and those who have been
Aorn away from traditional belief and are
still floating about with eathing to cling
to. :

ages”? This is probably true, but how | the favor of the stout and sawertals prima ble, who reveals Himself to me in my

‘est and happiest moments. Why should
‘ not bélieve this if Iycare to?’

“You will see that: there are impor-
tant- reasons why we cannot blindly base
our belief in a future life and in an ortho-
dox Christian God on the arguménts

given us by traditional Christianity., |

“In the first place, even if you are wt
aware of it today, sometime you will find
that psychology absolutely denies that
added happiness which comes after prayer
is due to anything but the natural
action of laws. I am pt saying that
prayer has no good side, but pointing out
one defect. Man’s salvation in this world
lies within himself, his own innate
tendencfes, which he must learn. to con-
trol, to develop im their just proportion

to each other, if his life is to become fully
realized. This _he cannot accomplish if

rare often told to.

“In the second place it is not true that
it will be disastrous if traditional faith is
lost.. With its loss wé gaiii the power to
look at facts in an unprejudiced light. In
its. place will come law. Psychology is
still immature. It has torn down the bul-
warks which we have been accustomed to
cling to and has not yet been able to
build stronger walls.

“We are now. at the threshold of great
scientific discoveries. Are you going to
reject them because they do not coincide
with a religion that was formulated two
thousand years, ago? Would that be liv-
ing after the example of Christ? He
never asked you to reject truth. He gave
us the faith to go on when science was
not even born, and He will always be a

d living example—one who showed us
hot to:live with people in this world. But
is it not perfect foolishness to expect a
religion which was formulated long be-
fore the dawn of science to be entirely
acceptable 2000 years later?

“Today many ministers are covering
up the differences between science and
religion. They give you-onlythat part
which is compatible. with your faith. I
have been talking to those of you who
industriously cling to a belief in a future
life and a God, on
science will not accept.

“I have till now been mostly destruc-
tive. I have asked you to give a revolu-
tionary argument its chance, but I have
never asked you to throw aside all the
teaching of Jesus Christ. I have only
pointed out two aspects where Christian
arguments seem groundless in the light

life and belief in God’ ag Christ explained
them, and as they are given by many
advanced. theological, professors.

“Now we must look forward, with head
up and with courage. We must place our
hope in future discoveries. Many promi-
nent scientists believe that we may some
day have proof of a future life. There
are many biologists and psychologists
who believe in an all-pervading spirit, but
they can’t as yet prove it.

“Incorporate into your philosophy of
life this knowledge that has been gained
concerning human nature—do not replace
religion by science. If you do this won’t
your life be far happier? You will then
replace a shifting, shaking foundation, one
open to criticism, with one of granite.

“Do not look to the past. Look to the
future. Buddha, Confucius, and Moham-
med all gave the satisfaction that Chris-
tianity has: given, but we do ‘not live by
all of their teachings. They will always
be true in part. We cannot disregard

DR. PETTY, EXPERIENCED SLU

WORKER URGES BROTHERHOOD



Justice, Not Philanthropy, Can Make
Social Readjustments



“What does:it méan to be a'Christian?”
asked Dr. Ray Petty in chapel last Sun-
day night. Dr. Petty is Pastor of the
Judson Memorial Church, _New York
City, ;

“The modern Christian needs to be

something more inclusive than a mere

individualist, liberalist, creedalist or mor-
alist. It is not enough to live by the old
golden rule of doing to another as you
want them to do unto you, for many
people want things done to thent which
are not Christian.

“Most matters of importance we turn
over to specialists. Who is the expert
in Christianity? Not “the bishop, the
priest—but Jesus. ‘If any man wills to
come. after me, let him take up his cross
and follow me.’ :

“We believe: in trying out hypotheses
in laboratories. The only way to tell if
Christianity can remedy the social mal-
adjustment is to try it out as it has neve
yet been tried out. Either Christianity
has infinitely more in it than we have yet
discovered, or Christianity is not ade-
quate, Religion has played too much with
sentiment. We have cheapened our re-
ligion with clap-trap evangelism. Jesus
did not come to organize a sham battle
or a holiday.

“He stands for justice and brotherhood,
not philanthropy. It isn’t enough to cure
a baby of rickets, if you send it back to
the same crowded three-room tenement
opening upon an air shaft. It ign’t enough

- for a skilled dietician to reorganize a poor

fanfily’s food budget if you let the in-
dustrial system remain so cruel and soul-
less. °

“Brotherhood is the thing. We sing it
in Our songs and use it in our poems and
the only thing wrong with it is that. we

. 8
don’t believe it. Some day our states-
men may be Christians, Then we will
have peace.”

supposed. He achieved real dignity in the
moment of the unveiling of Lady Teazle—
this “Lady Teazle, by all that’s damnable”
being rendered eloquently in voice and ges-
ture. Charles and Maria, played by Miss
Swift and Miss Adams, were admirably
cast. Particularly noticeable in this fortu-
nate pair was the beauty and grace of their
voices and. reading of their lines. Charles’
great moments were those in which he begs
“little Premium” to see that his ancestral
portraits ‘are genteely conveyed from their
old home—“for most of them, I assure you,
were used to ride in their own carriages ;”
in which he toasts these same portraiss ;
finally in which he closes the play with one
of those periods so dear to the shearts of
the old school in drdéma. He was essentially
the younger brother of fairyland—happy
in temper, fortunate in love, gallant in bear-

met with the greatest success of the eve-
ning. The, insidious Snake, to whom is
allotted the unenviable task of starting the
play and giving the audience all the neces-
sary information, was skillfully played by
Miss Ling. ‘

It remains to discuss ‘three of the very
interesting interpretations of the evening—
those of Lady Sneerwell, Sir Benjamin
Backbite, and Joseph Surface. Lady Sneer-
well one cannot. praise unreservedly, ‘for
when one considers her in relation to the
rest of the cast, in relation to the School
for Scandal,, as of course one thust: con-
sider her, she seems to have been done in
too sombre a key. She belonged, as inter-
preted by Miss Grayson, not to comedy, but
to tragedy. And yet this Lady Sneerwell
was certainly developed accurately and ab-
solutely from Sheridan’s: own words. She
was malicious, yes, but, above all, anxious.
Here we had a strangely harrowed Lady
Sneerwell, whose gestures,whose eyes were
full of suffering. Sir Benjamin, as acted

by Miss Morse, was oneyof ‘the most able

performances of the play. A true exquisite
in bearing. and manner, this Sir Benjamin,
with just enough ineffable silliness in his
delivery of his own epigram, just enough
ineffable malice in his description of the
lady, “whose head is modern, while. the
trunk’s antique.” Finally Joseph Surface,
perhapg¢ the most challenging of the rdles of
the School for Scandal, was played in a
truly accomplished manner by Miss Lomas,
The flexibility of voice, gesture, facial play,
brought to this part was particularly notice-
able. We shall remember for a long while
the Joseph of this production—Joseph mask-
ing with his hand the cruel smile as he goes
noiselessly to, join the ladies at cards—

arrogantly crossing for his final ‘exit, un-
abashed in his defeat, still the courtly, the
perfect hypocrite.

‘In the first heat of the 60-yard hurdles ,

D. Lee, '25, and G. Leewitz, ’26, ran down

sar, suggested an intercollegiate feder-
ated clearing house which would handle
the material and suggestions gathered in
colleges.

Judge Florence Allen, Justice of the
Supreme Court of Ohio and commence-

ment speaker at Bryn Mawr _ this year,

charged us to use our college “educations
to obliterate the usual American fault of
knowing only one side of the question.
We should recognize facts as facts and
exercise constructive criticism on our-
selves* not only as individuals, but as a
nation. For example, we should not deny
—just because our gourts are American—
the truth of Taft’s’ statement that -the
criminal courts are a disgrace to the
United States. Those courts are our
courts and we are-responsiblé for them.

In England a jury is empanelled in
fofir minutes—and a good jury, too, wifile
the United States takes nearly a week.
The cases in Engldnd are finished in a
month and in America in at least a year.
And wherever there is such a delay there
are more opportunities for injustice.

Our greatest inheritance was the ex-
periment to form a goyernment for life,
liberty and the pursuit of happiness. W ar

talks of inferior human stock; the econo-
mist claims modern industry” carries its
own seeds of destruction; the “breezy”
psychologist decries the preseyge of the
“mob mind;” the “rotund cat radiant”
administrator laments the lack of first-
rate executive ability; the political scien-

tist shouts forth the jealousy and tyrrany

of democracy,-which in itself. is an indi-
cation of decadence; the historian pro-
pound the coming of. another “dark age,”
since we have stopped producing a cul-
ture and are merely living on a civiliza-
tion, the first step in decay; and the mor-
alist forever. exclaims over the: rolled
stockings and. heretic philosophy of the
“vounger generation.”

A Challenge

Small colleges alk over the’ country, so

it would appear from those represented
at the Annual Conference of the League
of Women Voters, have discussion groups
for current affairs; some study present-
day problems in courses for credit. The

the mornings and evenings, leaving the
whole afternoon free.

Amusing intercollegiate tennis, basket-

pageant and singing.

The expense of all ten days is only

twenty-five dollars, and eight dollars for

Difficulties and Value Of Eclipse Ob-

servation Stressed In Lecture



“Eclipses” was the subject discussed by
Dr. Winthrop Wright, of Swarthmore, in
an illustrated lecture delivered under the
auspices of “the Science Club in Taylor
Hall last Wednesday evening.

“Total eclipses are very rare. It is as
if a.man were standing on the moon with
a pointer toward the earth, 250,000 miles
away. The. shadow jis so timy that you
can’t expect to see it just by standing
still. Moreover, the shadow moves af
such a tremendous speed that you can
never hope to observe it for more than
two minutes. So that if you devote your
life to observing eclipses from one place,

you Will cid up with~perhaps—fity mite
utes of laboratory work on which to base

all your theories.”

Dr. Wright showed photographs take
at New Haven, which proved that the sun
is far larger than we think. Great stream-
ers, which constitute what is known as
the corona, project out for at least a mil-
lion miles from the edge of the mo®n
when it covers the central part of the sun.
The corona can only be observed at
eclipses and varies greatly each time. The
streamers have some unknown connec-
tion with the sunspots, since they ob-
serve their regular periodicity of eleven
years.

A short time exposure showed the bril-
liance ‘of the inner corona and the irregu-
larities of the edge of the moon. A cloud
of hydrogen, a speck on the corona, was
revealed to be anywhere from ten to fifty
thousands miles in width.

How, after all this, are eclipses val-
uuble to us? Principally, “because they
teach us about the sun. Dr. Wright said
that knowledge of our sun gives us a
of the even greater
