MERION CRICKET CLUB IS
CONQUERED BY VARSITY

Victory of Varsity i is Due to Tear

and Remarkable Stick Work

B. LOINES, ’28, IS STAR OF GAME

Bryn Mawr Varsity defeated Merion |-
Cricket Club patirday,, “November 14, in
‘a fast game—4-1,—

The day was cold ae cline with a high
wind, which seemed to lend speed to- the
forwards’ feet. The action was lightning
quick. Varsity played like @ well-oiled
machine—with all its parts working to-
gether. The Merion Cricket Club players,
on the other hand, were more independent
and legs succegsful in their attempts. Var-
sity’s speed, strength and excellent stick
work were very evident causes for their
victory.

Playing with more intensity in the sec- :

in making a beautiful goal after a quick

The playing was even and very strained.

BRYN MAWR SECOND VARSITY
WINS IN SPITE OF MUDDY FIELD



Scarlet Tunics Easily Defeat Valiant
Saturday Morning Club

The Saturday Morning Club again: met
defeat at the hands of Second Varsity, Sat-
urday morning, November 14, with a score
of 5-1. . ; :

Playing a strong fast game, Second Var-
sity, in its scarlet tunics, tore up and down
the muddy field with great speed. The

viously outplayed.

In the first half, their energy and de-
termination seemed for a time to make up
for the college’s superior technique, but
it soon becanie apparent that the Reds
would win. E. Cushman, ’26, started be-
hind the fifty-yard fine dribbling the ball
with great speed to the circle; then sending
it smartly in for a goal off R. Miller, 27.

R. Miller, '27, three times ran down the
field and passed in, once for a goal from
E. Nichols, ’26, but twice was stopped by
the quick interference’ of M: Buchanan,

In the second half, Miss Margerum made

‘LECTURE ON PAUL'S EPISTLE



Circumstances Leading to the Apostle’s
Teaching Given



“Next to Jesus, Paul founded the Chris-
tian Church,” said. Dr. Tyson, speaking
under the auspices of the Christian As-
sociation in Taylor Hall on Wednesday,
November 11.

“We have almost no record of any other
of the twelve Apostles, save “Peter,” con-

tinned Dr> Tyson. It Wwas-Paul-who-car--

ried the gospel outside of a small district
and spread it abroad. Paul’s letters grew
out of several factors of which the first was
his personal correspondence. Only one such
letter, the Epistle to Philemon, was used,
as most contained no matter of public
interest. The greater part of his epistles
were written to help the churches that he
had founded, out of their difficulties.

The letter to Philemon was the result
of the following story, Dr. Tyson ex-
ya ned. :

He had founded a church at Philippi in
50 A. D., and had then stayed at Ephe-
sus, where. he had trained men to go out
preaching into the country districts. From
a small town near by came a business
man nained Philemon. Paul met him and
talked to him of the love of Christ.
Philemon went honie, telling his family
what he had learned, and organized a
Sunday evening circle in his house.

PROTEST SUBTLE TRUTH OF HEART

“Edwin Arlington Robinson's Dra-
matic Poetry” was the theme of M.
Charles Cestre’s fourth lecture last Tues-
day” aftertroon— - Robinson’s dramatic —
poerty, like his other work, appeals to the
intellect.

In describing a struggle, Robinson laid
dramatic force on the yearnings rather
than on the facts. He kept the spectacu-
lar in the background and avoided violent —
effects.

This interpretative and ineatlectiad man-
ner belongs to Browning, but the spirit
and general method are always Robin-
son’s own. His poetry has a deliberate.
gait. Robinson is not as much interested
in histofical characters and eras as Brown-
ing; Robinson is satisfied with men and
wotiien about him. While his characters
are usually homely individuals, they never
lack variety. His portrayal of temporary
Aimerica is second to none in human inter-
est. Robinson is broadly American. The —
background of his poetry is New England;
the characters strong and ‘individual but
not provincial; and his style modern and
individual.

Robinson’s poetry in its universality of
conception and individuality of form is
‘truly a modern classic. There is steady
progress in his work, in general from the
simple to the complex. His first volume
is a collection of sonnets, which already
contain the oustanding characteristics of

ATHLETIC ASSOCIATION WILL »
TAKE OVER FENCING THIS YEAR

per tae
Points Won in Bouts to Count Both in
' ° Class and Individual Totals





Fencing this year is going to be run
on an éntirély different basis. Instead of
‘the former individual agreement, separate
from college authority between Mr. Ter-
rone and.the members of his class, the
agreement will now be made by the Ath-
letic Association. Fencing will therefore
rank with the other winter - sports.
Points gained in fencing will count in -
the individual total required for the
coveted blazer.

Fencing will furthermore rank in ¢lass /
sports. Class teams will be chosen and —
points won in inter-class tournaments
will count towards the class total. A
varsity team will be also chosen.

It is hope’ that this competitive basis
| will help to popularize fencing. Fresh-
men and sophomores are especially urg-
ed to participate. Fencing has increased
in importance in both men’s and women’s
colleges.

Those. who are interested in fencing
are asked to give their names to their class -
captains or representatives: E. Mills-
paugh, ’26; E. Winchester, '27; V. At- .
more, 28, and S. Fitzgerald, '29.

WHY PEOPLE ATTEND
MORNING CHAPEL
Why do people go to Morning
Chapel?—for various reasons of which
they aré, we believe, quite unaware. (In
examining these, no disparagement of the
service is intended.) Many attend
simply from habit, a survival of the early
religious rites of boarding-school.
Others, from weariness: these sink into
seats in Taylor Chapel relieved of the
hungry, nervous atmosphere of the $
o’clock class.. There is now and then an
impressario or an actress seeking mate-
rial for a skit or an imitation. There are
hymn-lovers who enjoy the doggerel of

‘the morning-song through’ the associa-

tions of a long Episcopalian training.
And there are a few who go to hear cer-
tain speakers; and a few freshmen who
have never seen the like before.

But the regular army of chapel-goers
have another reason: only in chapel do
they get that strong sense of being part
of the college that they first found in
their Freshman Parade Night and Lan-
In the morning assembly,
with the choir in cap and gown, .with
“two or three officials and students
gathered together,” listening to exhor-
tation or mere announcements, they re-
capture the sharp impression belonging
to Bryn Mawr; capture a little of their
lost youth. In varsity games and clas§
matches they may sometimes trace it;
but in chapel they get it almost every
day. - And on the morning that the Euro-
pean fellow is announced they get it
most of all.

What a paradox, in view of the last,
hat they miserably fail to attain this.

. union in their own study, their most in-
tense and interesting work! Bryn Mawr

is not merely meetings and committees
and lectures and games, and morning
chapel. The “lamp of true learning”
(however silly the phrase), is not the

electric light of Taylor.

The great-
ness of ghe task which Mt Burke has
undertaken leaves the reader fairly
breathless. Other writers have succeed-



Jed in giving us.a cross section of the
English aristocracy: Mr. Burke has suc-
ceeded in including in his werk every
English Brahmin, according to every one at
least a sentence of description or praise.

The Peerage begins with a chart of the
order of precedence of the aristocracy—
@ guide as essential to the understanding
of his tale as is the Forsyte family tree
in Mr. Galsworthy’s sister yolume. With--
out wasting any words, simply by tabu-
lating the facts, Mr. Burke shows us
very clearly why England has been the

his own country, then, if he has any
spirit at all, he will not endure this in-
equality. He takes a ship. for the Gold
Coast, where he will stand at,Jeast three
in the caste system. When he has car-
ried on the task of a Christian and made
it easier for the natives to enter heaven |
by the expedient of exploiting them on
a grand scale, he returns to England,
there to be made at least a baron, and
rank not less than 3984. All this com-
plicated story Mr. Burke is able to con-
vey to us in a few lines of figures.

This is only one of the many new

slants he gives you on the aristocracy.

No lurid account of the reign of Charles
II can tell the’ reader the state of the
times more clearly than Mr. Burke’s
quiet notation of the number of ladies
who were made peeresses by the grateful
king. In. his easy, familiar style he
shows the -heroic past and the solid
present of England’s great families, from
the: Howards, descendant of Hereward,
c. 982, to the latest soap or steel mag-
nate.

It is a monumental work, this book
of Mr. Burke’s. Not a single one of its
2847 pages is without interest or in-
struction for the careful reader. It is
only at the end that the author ceases
to be entirely objective. There, in his
descriptions of the ceremonies of investi-
ture of the various orders; he has’ created
several pages of as vivid and colorful
writing as modern fiction has been able
to produce in many years.

FOUR FACTORS IN
INDIA’S POVERTY

CONTINUED FROM PAGB 1



When Ghandi, pleading, as usual, the
cause of the oppressed, suggested that a
few temples and roads might be open to
the outcasts, four hundred Brahmins met,
and decided that the outcaste is a.neces-
sary outcome of the caste system. More-
over they questioned Ghandi, who is a
member of one of the merchant classes,
as to whether he was entitled to speak.

The second cause of India’s poverty is
the great drain of supporting six million
men who toil not, neither do they spin.
A few of these fakirs or religious mendi- |
cants may be devout men seeking God,
but the majority are those who think the
world owes them a living and that the
easiest way to get'it is with a beggar’s
bowl. Men fear to. refuse them alms, in
awe of a curse upon the village, when the
fields would be barren and the women
childless.

Degradation of women, of whom only
one per cent. are literate, is the third cause
of India’s misery. In India the difficul-
ties of spreading medical knowledge are
enormous. Science has discovered that
leprosy has a preliminary, and curable
stage. But how is the government to
spread this news to two million lepers?
The mother is the most’ important factor
in a child’s education; what hope is there
for the child if the mother’s mind is so

dark that she exorcises evil spirits instead.

of giving her baby medical treatment?
A law was proposed by those who sym-

pathized with the oppression of India’s
women raising the age of consent to mar- |

riage to thirteen. The September official
report says this was not passed—and this
is modern India.

The economic aspects of the theory of
transmigration of souls are extremely
transmigration of souls are extremely grave.
Monkeys, which prevent orcharding, have
temples built in their honor. Rats and
other noxious animals cannot be de-
‘stroyed; one might be killing a relative.

Our Bible says: “Increase and multiply,

and replenish the earth and subdue it;
man shall have dominion over the creep-
ing things of the earth.” But the Indian
bows down and worships animals, and
increases his crushing national poverty.



DRAMATIC POETRY OF
E. A. ROBINSON

CONTINUED FROM PAGH 1
his later works. Here a whole personality



N | is contained in one trait, _or*bne gesture.

through an opposition of opinions; and
sometimes through other characters.

Robinson, like Ferguson, one’ of his |
characters, is a belated Puritan. His
philosophy is moral and-intellectwal activ-
ity. He ‘believes in moral endeavor with-
out moralizing bigotry.

Enlivening the thought with imagery,
Robinson brings together. the literal and
figurative sense. His words are apt and
show that he has an easy and sure cor-
respondence between sense and sound.
His poetry, therefore, demonstrates a
music of the intellect.

In his dramatic poetry, Robinsofi trans-
lates his characters from their static
State, as‘seen in his sonnets, to a dynamic:
state. He incorporates: action with full
characterization, Psychological analygis
remains for him, here as elsewhere in his
work, his chief aim; and his narratives are
less tales of events than adumbrations of



the mysteries of man. By slow approaches ~
he probes the subtle truth of the human
heart. His poetry, therefore, demon-
ttates how psychological. arfalysis and
analysis and. knowledge of the subcon-
scious have enriched modern literature.
Robinson is not romantic; he is realis-
tic. His style is simple. His originality
is due to his manner, his treatment of
character and his analysis. The skillful
gradations of his analysis remind one of
Hawthorne in method and of Poe in art-
istry; but the resulting effect is Robinsons’
own. From few allusions, he is able to
draw an effect of pathos. His style em-
bodies no fleet enumeration of details, but
er introspection and observation. The
dfamatic force of his poetry is derived
therefore from intellectual excellence. He
uses few strokes because he is sure of
himself. He combines unmistakable hu-
man truth with great earnestness. He
is therefore essentially tragic and dra-
matic.

in the social system of slavery, although
it was in contradiction to Christ’s teach-

to Philemon. The slave was terrified.
“Never mind,” said Paul, “I will give you
a letter to him.” This is the Epistle to
Philemon.

In it Paul said he was scabs the slave

Philemon, that you owe me far more than
the slave owes you because you owe me

tongues.” The unknown always passes
for the marvelous. Chapters 12, 13 and
14,-of theEpistle tothe _Corinthians,_
answers best this question as to what is
the greatest spiritual gift.

“What is the greatest spiritual gift?”

continued Dr, Tyson. There really is no
concrete thing because the greatest spirit-
ual good is relative to what man’s heredity
and environment have been. Instead,
Paul says he will give a criterion which
people may themselves apply to every
spiritual gift. “Though I speak with these
vaunted ‘tongués’ of yours and have not
love, I am making so much noise,” said
Paul, “though I give my body as a sacri-
fice.” Love is kind, went on Paul, defin-
ing the criterion. Love is a love of
truth. Many people want a belief that
will merely give themi-comfort, which is
the reason for so much 6f the present-day
belief in science. From an article in
Scribners, Dr. Tyson quoted: “Science is
the faith of the Modern.”_,Truth must be
sought in a sustained way. We must not
be discouraged because we do not get
it all at once.

“Loving-kindness endureth all things,”
was the last of the criterion. It is more
than patience. It means a “standing up
under fire.” You have heard of the pa-
tience of Job. It has become a proverb,
but if you know Job, you realize he was
not patient. He cursed and lost his tem-
per. To stand up under fire, concluded
Dr. Tyson, is about the nearest to the
ideal of religion there is.

HA R/T EELUTUAN\SS Woe dks i, In the third place the Corinthians de-

Dark Blue definitely defeated 1927 in
a tense, closely fought game with the
score of 1-0 on Tuesday, November 10,

This victory, following a tie in the last
game hetween 1927 and 1926, gives the
Seniors the lead in the hockey tourna-
ment. Fighting hard for the coveted -
place; the Juniors struggled to catch up,
but lacked co-ordination and the winning
energy. The Green forwards seemed in-
capable of shooting and invariably al-
lowed the Seniors’ backs to be between
them and the goal. 1926 played a defen-
sive game for the most part also, but
neyer lost the lead she gained early if
the first half. The field was very muddy
and weighted the shoes of the contestants,
making the play sluggish and never rapid.

The teams played evenly forthe first
tefl minutes, until E. Nichols,’ ’26, broke
away from the backs and shot a quick
goal, Despite much good work on the
part of the halves, the forwards never
again went beyond the striking circle. All
the play was concentrated in the center
of the field and the wings.

With renewed vigor 1927 came into the
second half determined to even the score.

The game was a little faster, individ-
uals made desperate attempts and strug-
gled hard to penetrate the goal, but the
Greens could not push it in. The Seniors
had lost their initiative and played a
purely, although very skillful, defensive
game.

MR. O'CONNOR TO CONFER ON
‘THE AMERICAN THEATRE
Conference to Discuss Movies’ Effect and
Present Theatre Movements.

‘Norreys Jephson O’Conor, Associate Pro-

sént Bryn Mawr College as a delegate to
the National Conference on the American
- Theatre, to be held at the Carnegie Insti-
tute of Technology on November 27 and
28, Presidetit Thomas S. Baker: announced
today.

One of the chief purpdses of the meet-
ing, which, incidentally will be the first of
its kind in this country, is to study the
potential influence of the community play-
housé movement and to ascertain, also, the
nature and extent of the movement now
going on in American colleges for the pro-

~ motion: of interest in the serious drama.
. Whether the thovies and other common
forms of light entertainment have really
“killed” the commercial theatre, arfd
whether or not the American public cares,
are questions that will be discussed.

. The conference will be divided into three
sessions, the first to be a “general survey
of the American theatre;” the second to
study the extent of “dramatic training in
colleges and universities;” and the third
to consider the movement- among “little
‘theatres and community playhouses.”

This movement has* been misrepresented
by the British; it is not Bolsheviki, not
anti-foreign, but anti-imperialistic. From
this a great labor movement is developing.

Mr. Blanchard declared in closing that
Americans should help the student move-
ment, to give to China national democ-
racy and industrial democracy.
