Between Gtoups I. and -II,.—-Mr.
Ketcham, ‘the leader of the: quartet,
gave a brief sutimary of the develop-
rment of the negro spiritual. - All the
songs have not developed from songs
of worship; some were songs of every
day life corresponding to the English
ballads. ‘The-‘books written on the
subject are of little’ value in that they
consistently contradict each other.
“One author maintains that the. spirit-
uals are a reaction from ithe slavery
period and that no more will be pro-
duced. Another says that the negro
must sing in order to live and therefore
the spirituals will be-produced for ages.

Most of May Day Profits
to Buy Stage Equipment
_ Stirred by a last-minute reporp-that
May Day profits would reach or even
exceed the sum of $5000 the Under-
graduate Association yesterday after-
noon revised its original plan for the
expenditure of the money. The meet-
ing, a remarkably large one for the first
day of exams, was called by:petition to
réconsider the plan drawn up last week.
Contrary to expectation, however, the
original’ scheme was left almost un-
changed and the second meeting ‘de-
voted itself merély to the consideration
of what should be done with surplus.
The present plan. of expenditure is
as follows:
For the organ pipe already installed



For the curtain-also installed, $600.
.For stage equipment and activities
of Varsity Dramatics connected with
Goodhart, $1400.

For the Bryn Mawr Art Club, $500.

For Bates House, $300.

For summer school, $200.

All the rest of the: money will be
devoted to stage equipment for Good-
hart Hall. After the deduction of. the
above sums the first surplus. will he
used for the purchase of a moving
picture projector large enough to show
movies in the auditorium of Goodhart
Hall. A good projector, with a col-
lapsible fireproof booth, can ‘be in
stalled for $1150, it was announced.
Reels can be rented for the evening for
no more than $20 and shown with fhe
projector for less than $5. This addi-
tion. to. the -equipment_ of Goodhart

When in Paris Why Not
Attend C. I. E. Conference?

In chapel Friday morning Miss Elaine
Lomas, Bryn Mawr, ’25, described the
C. I. E. Congress in Paris this summer.
Each year since its inception in 1919,

the=C. T. E. has held a congress~during

the summer in one of the capitols of
Europe. This year it will be held from
August 15-24, immediately after the
ending of the Olympic games at Amster-
dam and Paris has been selected as a
place especially convenient for those
wishing. first to attend the games.
Each of the thirty-two national unions
of students, members of the confedera-
tion, send five official delegates to the
congress, but~ besides these there arg
always a good many representatives from
other student organizations, not .mem-
bers of the C. I. E., and all students
belonging to any of the countries -rep-
resented are welcome to attend as ob-
servers. The observers and_ outside
guests ‘take part’ in all the social events
and may attend all the sessions of the
council and the commissions.

Five Commissions in Congress

carried on by five commissions “which
draw. up: the various resolutions and
these are’ then approved by the plenary
session. of the council, the procedure
being exactly like that of the League of
Nations. The first commission ~ deals
-with-the—questionsof organization and

est to those unacquainted ‘with the routine
work of the Confederation. Among the

coming congress by this commission. will
be the admission of .the. Deutschenstu-
dentenschaft, the student organization of
Germany, a national union which has so
far not been’ quite in accord with the
statutes of the C. I. E., the relations of
the C. I. E. with other international stu-
dent ,bodies and with the Ifstitute of
Intellectual Co-operation of the League
of Nations.- Upon’ the last question. there
will be an interesting address by a mem-
ber of the Institute. It is-well to realize,
however, that the.C, I.E. is in no, way
an organ of propaganda for the League
of Nations, and that its only affiliation
with the League is through the _Insti-
tute of Intellectual Co-operation,. which
has no political activity. Attendance at
these discussions is probably the best
means of getting an insight into some

Has Peace Been Declared?

Freshman Night cropped up in a most
irregular form last Friday night. There
were no parodies and no battles for the
possession of Taylor Steps, which re-
mained empty all evening except fot a
larges red sign saying SOLD. ~When
Freshmen in one of the -halls turned
their backs on. childish things artd ‘sang
in chorus
“Our upperclassmen are all such bricks,
We aren’t going to’ play them any tricks,”
it was generally thought that the old
tradition would be allowed to die. But
irreverence never went with restraint.

The younger generation, as many upper
‘classmen now know to their sorrow, have
their-own ways of sowing their wild
oats. It. was a. night of secret crimes
and_indignant_retaliations. At midnight
someone saw rockets in back of Merion
and someone else heard a snatch of im-
passioned oratory in the same quarter.
The true history of™those events will
never be written. But ‘this much is a
fact. If the custom is ever wholly dis-
continued, it will be upperclassmen who
do it. Treat them as kindly as you will,
Freshmen will never knowingly let ‘such



- |an opportunity go, to waste.

Junior-Senior Banquet,’ hazy with tra-
dition and glazed with sentiment, drew
the upperclassmen-to the gym on Satur-
day night: A kind of glamour was given
the dinner by the. glittering raimeyt ot
the revellers and innumerable balloons,
but even this glamour could not prevent
tite discovery that we were eating after

*|all only a very ordinary college dinner

transposed to a more: festive scene.

feast, dancirig began.. .The orchestra was

The great occasion was consummated

ing “Auld ‘Lang Syne” we said good-
night, and went home, tired but happy.
Sophomore Banquet Successful
- The Sophomore class banquet went off
with rather a flourish in Rockefeller
Hall. se °
As was the food, so was the entertain-
way above the average, and- when
all was said -and done, we were quite

certain that we were not enjoying a

Sunday meal. Gertrude Bancroft, as
toastmistress, performed most adniirably,
and introduced, ‘quite gracefully, the
well-known Elizabeth Bradford Fetter,
Hygienic writer.. Miss Fetter was sup-
ported in a.very moral skit by the tal-
ented Sylvia Knox. Their performance
was greeted by the sefious reaction of a

class who had’ missed its traditional
course of Hygiene, in the interests of
May Day:

Next came announcements. from the
chair, and a most ~ spirited feply-- from

he first number ‘on a rather varied f{ pro-
gram was.a lullaby from Act two, Scene
three, of A, Midsummer’s Night Dream.
The songsters were all dressed in blue
tunics, and performed* in a most. ad-
mirable manner. .We- were~ both. sur-
prised and pleased to hear a solo part
which ‘kept its melody. |

The second main part of the program
contained sundry and amusing folk
songs. Each was announced by one of
the singers, who summarized the con-
tents of the offering. Incidentally, we
suggest this method. as a most practical.
innovation in more ambitious efforts!
She who announced then led the song,
and ‘the methods of beating time, and
keeping the chorus to the rhythm were
well worth a more minute study than
‘we can afford to give them here. Among
.the coipany was one lone boy; his bass
voice, we regret to report, did not carry
above the high sopranos of the female
singers.

The first song was “Twinkle, Twinkle,
Little Star;” wherein (for the benefit of
those poor innocents whose mothers
never told them) a little boy sees, from
his bedroom window, a star that looks
“exactly like. a diamond.” _ The next. song
was called “If I Were a Little Elfin.”
Here, a lady tells’a little boy about an
elf who is “just exactly the size of a
flower.” © The third song concerned the
difficulties of a1 and a man; a rooster
advises them, anf the result is that “she
will dance without her ‘shoe.” |The
fourth folk song was done interpretively ;
it was about -butterflies, one of whom
leaves a lovely garden for no known
reason; we were thoroughly instructed
in the gentle art of. playing butterfly.
The last number was an Easter carol,
to be sung, most appropriately, in the
springtime. The children. rose gradually
from the earth (which was really the
chapel platform, -you understand) and
pretended, most effectively, to be little
flowers ‘blooming in the rays of God’s
own sun.

The whole program; was very nicely
done, and we were frarikly- amazed that
such very little me could sing so well.

Are “Exams Strength-
ening?

The after effects of exams may
be fatal to health, but anticipation
of them seems. to. be decigedly
bracing. At three o'clock on Mon-
day afternoon of this week there
was not a single undergraduate
occupying a bed in the infirmary,
and only one graduate student.
This .is an altost unheard-of sit-
uation in the annals of the in
| firmary, and the nurses, as one of
them remarked, to the last ‘patient
‘as she took ‘her departure, are
going to advocate having . Finals
six’ times a year instead of only
twice.







Last Chapel Makes K@own
Gift for Lectureship

Another magnificent gift has been ‘pre-
sented to the college, Miss. Park .an-
nounced last Saturday morning in chapel,
in, the form of fifty thousand dollars,
given by Mr; Bernard Flexner in honor
of his sister; Miss Mary Flexner; of the
class of 1905. This “money is to be used
to obtain.each year a lécturer, American
or European, of widest renown and ex-
cellence. The lectureship is to be con-
fined to Literatures, Philosophy, Psychol-
ogy, History and Art.
These lecturers will be directly connected
The

lectures will be published each year as

The President then announced several
honors which have been won by Bryn
Mawr graduates. Miss Salinger, of the
class of 1928, won a prize given by. the
College Art Association. The examina-
tion” given the contestants. covered the
history of Art from:Ancient to Modern
times. Miss Salinger’s was the second
prize—five hundred dollars. The first
and-third: prizes were-won- by -Princeton-
students,

Miss Belle’ Boone Beard has_ beer
awarded a fellowship of twelve hundred
dollars by. the Judge Baker Foundation
of, Boston to cafry on research in the
Child Guidance. Clinic. An anonymous
gift of five hundred dollars has in-
creased the fellowship awarded by the
American Association of University
Women to Miss Mildred Fairchild to
fifteen hundred dollars. Miss Harper
has also received a foreign fellowship.
-“The time has come,” Miss Park then
said, “when I for the last time this year
must ‘stop speaking.” The President
briefly sketched the outlagk for the com-
ing year. Honors work, long -planned
and long hoped for, will be inaugurated.
There are grants for increase of. the
salaries of the faculty,. Goodhart Hall
is completed, its youth full of surprising
possibilities,

Miss Park admitted that she was a
little sentimental about leaving Taylor
Hall. But she concluded her last talk in
its traditional: walls iti saying that it was
fitting there to discuss plans for going
ahead.



Mr. Alwyne Honored

Mr. Horace Alwyne,-the Director. -f
Bryn

of .being made President of the Con-
temporary Music Society of Philadel-
phia. _The Society gave three most
successful concerts last season, ‘of
which the April one at which ‘were
given works of Stravinsky and Hinde-
mith was especially important and for
which the Broad Street Théater was
filled.

hide Can the Seven Women’s
Colleges Be Brought to
Eye of Public?

MOVIES SOLVE PROBLEM

Bryn Mawr has become a second
Hollywood. To carry out the publicity. ~
progrant of the seven: women’s colleges .
which have banded together to further
their interests among the public and‘ add
to their endowment funds, moving pic-
tures are being taken of many phases
of college life, and. will be released all
over the country this fall, along with
similar pictures of life at Vassar, Smith,
Holyoke.
During the past_winter_a_committee of
representatives of these colleges, on
which Bryn Mawr is represented by
Mrs. Learned Hand; has. been.active in
New York finding out ways and means
of bringing before the eyes of .the nation
the past histories and future plans of
these institutions. . The articles now ap-
pearing in the Sunday Times are one /
feature of this program.’ Now the num- /
ber of people who can be reached is to/
be increased from those who read and
to listen: to those who see.

Not long ago the Metro-Goldwyn had
a film, in mind which would deal with
life in a girl’s college. An alumna of
Barnard was so impressed’ with the seven
college campaign that she proposed to
Mr. Will Hayes that a film should be
made of. the most interesting activities .
of the college. Mr. Hayes “snapped
up” the idea. In due time it was put
into practice... Last -Thursday, Mr.
Dubreuil, Mr. Hayes’ right-hand man, '
met “with a committee of Undergraduates
headedby V. Fain, ’29, to decide on the
activities which should be photographed.
Since Saturday the cameras have been
busy.





New Tradition Is Founded
The cameras first appeared on. the
occasion of the*Seniors’ farewell to the-
halls, when the whole college dutifully

| ran'into the camera, and a new tradition

was established for the satisfaction “of
the movie-going world. As the proces-
sion of Seniors filed into the arch,,the
big blue banner of 1928, suspended “from
the dining room windows by Stokes and
Ropes, was allowed to. flutter ignomini-
ously to the ground as a symbol of the
passing of the class: Thus traditions are
born. <

On the same’. afternoon a_ lacrosse -
game~was~ staged for the omnivorous
camera, and the chemistry class. was
photographed prosaically undergoing a
Lab quiz. This aspect of science was.
chosen: perhaps in the hopes of an ex-
plosion, after a plan for a closeup of
geology -students starting out to collect
fossils and skeletons had been _regret-
fully abandoned.

Resurrections __
In the evening Lantern Night. was

resurrected, and on Monday Robin Hood

the old clothes closet, and May Day,
to which we had sung goodbye on Sat- °
urday, reigned again for-a-brief- moment,

Meditations in the Infirmary
Peaceful’ and cleanly solitude

(My bed is full of crumbs)
And sunlight through my red. balloons
Like three red plums.

A terrible and gentle grip
Is closing in on me,

‘The: awful; deadly, kindly hold ~
ive ‘the: infirmary.

So easy 'tis to lie in bed
‘(Much easier than walking),.
To read innumerable books
‘- Much easier than talking.
To be as lazy as a tat
And drowsy as a’ willow,
And slowly be demoralized
By contact with a pillow.

Was -Daphne secretly relieved
To turn into a tree?

To point to roots as an excuse

For inactivity? .

And monks who hid away in cells
What other thought had they?

Why should oné*toil or think when it
Is easier to. pray? —

Let others’ struggle with exams
And labor and grow thin,
I'll take a nap while waiting for
My dinner from the Inn.

Hampton Quartet

CONTINUED FROM PAGE i

pare with the tremendous “aniount
which is being produced tdday, the
earlier ones are far superior in quality,
Mr. Alonzo Morone, a student in the
industrial school at Hampton, gave a
most interesting account._.of how-—he
happened to come to Hampton. and
what the s@héol “Has done. for him.
There are nine hundred students at
Hampton, he told‘us. These come
from the Virgin Islands, Jamaica,
Porto Rico, and Africa, as well as from
the United States. The Virgin Islands,
Mr. Morone’s home, were bought by
the. United States in 1917 from Den-
mark, In, 1922 the unemployment .on
the Islands, combined with the very
meagre facilities for education, made
the’ more: intelligent inhabitants feel a
need for contact with the outside
world. In-1923, therefore, Mr. Morone
came to this coyntry inorder that he
might acquire enough practical knowl-
edge to take back to his own people.
He began in the upholstery department
of the trade school at Hampton and,
despite the trouble he had at first in
making himself understood, gradually
worked his way through the course.
This fall he will begin an academic
course which is necessary for. all grad-
uates. “Mr. Morone feels that Hamp-
ton has fitted him for his purpose bef-
ter than could any other institution.
Between the last.. two. groups. of
songs by the quartet, Mr. Gray spoke
of the interest that Bgyn Mawr has
always shown in the progress of
Hampton, and. told something of the
negro’s introduction into the United
States. Prince Henry, of Portugal, he
said, may be indirectly regarded as the
agency by which the negro came into
this country. ‘
From. Portugal the slave labor
spread to the West Indies and from
there to the United §tates in 1619.-
Now we have eleven million negroes in
the country, two million in the North
and nine million in the South. What
are we going to do? It-is not enough
to talk about a race problem;- both
the North and South ought to think of

.|these millions of negroesas a respon-
sibility to be dealt with on the most’

honorable terms., It is our duty to see
that these men and women of the col-
ored face are not denied the privileges
today which our ancestors; during the
slavery period, denied their. grand-
What Hampton is attempting
to do is to train the negro for com-
munity needs, in order that he may go
out and raise the moral and economic
standards of his. people. During the
last twenty years, twelve thousand
students have been sent out ~from
Hampton so trained.



Who Beat the Buccaneers?

the score 10-5 in.our favor, but Totten
