New League Meets

handute Made and Heads of De-

__ partments Elected for.
Next Year.

On Wednesday evening, May 9,-a meet-
ing was held of what was then called
the “new Organization,” which has since
then attained to the dignity and distinc-
tion of a reaf name—The Bryn Mawr
League. After a few introductory words
from R. Biddle, the president of the
League, the business of the meeting,
namely, the reports of the three groups
and the choosing of a name, was taken.

The first report was that of S. Brad-
ley, Head of Worship. Miss Bradley
explained the plan for next year by
which we are to have five regular chapel
services—that is, five services led by out-
side ministers during the year. For this
the League is anxious to secure men
who are of the greatest interest to the

In addition to these serv-
ices there will be other less formal ones,
as many as we wish. They -will be led

and will consist of “short talks, readings,

‘connection »with the music it has been
decided that the choir mistress should be
on Miss Bradley’s. committee so as to
facilitate the arrangement of the musi-
cal services. The committee will also
have charge of the Maids’ Sunday
School.
New Arrangement. for Ministers.
_QO..Stokes, Head of Discussion, has, as
she said in her report, arranged with the
Worship Greup that the ministers who
come to hold the chapel services should,
whenever. possible,” stay over Sunday
night and Monday in order to meet the
Discussion Group. He would - perhaps
speak in chapel Monday morning, and
a tea would be ‘given : for him in the
afternoon. Thus those who were inter-
ested would have the opportunity of talk-
ing to him in small groups, and of meet-j
ing him informally. Two hostesses were
chosen to entertain the guests of the

League, M. Martin and H. Thomas.|

Faculty Loses to Varsity
Despite Startling Goal
One-can-not say that, the-Varsity-team
beat the Faculty without adding at once
that the Faculty. made one startling goal!

-Fhe—combat-between..the. teams, which

took. place. Monday afternoon,\.was_ in-
tensely_ interesting, and the onlookers
were breathless with excitement most, of
the time. The moments- not: included: in
the word, “most” were devoted to occa-
sional laughter. We were certainly-.en-
tertained ! ie

The game began with Varsity on a
rush for a goal, but they did not realizé
what opposition they had in the Faculty
and it was some tinie before they scored.
Seely and Buck and Hart. worked won-
ders in thé backfield, and. Fieser and
Sloan on the forward line turned out to
be dashing players. Dr. Fieser won our
admiration at the very beginning, for
such clever tactics are not often seen in
hockey... He showed a tendency to sit
upon the ball when a presuming under-
graduate got too close to him, and he
was very deft at abandoning the stick
for the. more -practical use of. the hand.

| He made several’ spectacular“runs- down
the field, and showed remarkable ability |,

in stopping hits.

Dr. Diez also applied the ‘intelligence
to the sport. He found that, the ball
could cover ground in a fray most eAsily
-kicked. - He -- fought --valiaiitly
against -Guiterman, who can cover
ground at an amazing rate herself: Dr.
Hart and Blanchard -had ‘several little
combats on the side. .They had a great
deal of trouble at some moments in mak-
ing up the ball’s mind as to its owner.

The second half was marked by. a
great many long shots. Wills and-Guiter-
man fought hard for thé honor of the
home team, and Hirshberg was invulner-
able as a back, Dr. Fieser and Buck
were the only two who could push their
rapid way through her. ‘

Varsity had made only one goal the
second half when Lanman dramatically
scored one for the Faculty! There was
a momentary halt in the game while the
players overcame theit emotions. The
end was soon reached with the Varsity
triumphant with a score,of 6-1. But the
Faculty DID make one goal—and they
deserved it! Their swiftness and fierce-
ness thrilled us all.

For a while we thought we had May
Daytipon us“again. The audience..wa*
quite sure we were once more in the
midst of our Elizabethan - revels. Buck
and Bartle appeared with Harvesters’
Hats shading their brows by meas of
their ample and costumed. brims, and
Seely outdid herself in Tumbling. Even
Euclio came down :to- see the finish,
looking precisely as important as he did
in Midsummer's Night Dream. All. we
lacked was a Fury or two to remove
the dead at the end of the game, or poor
Miss Sloan, who received “external in-
juries”.on the shin during the first half.

Republican or Democrat?
Hoover or Al Smith?

The weak points and the strong of the
Republican and Democratic ‘parties, and
the comparative merits—of-Smith—and
Hoover were clearly presented by Pro-
fessor William-Roy ‘Smith in his talk on
Presidential Candidates in chapel on Fri-
day morning, i

Both parties are "very definitely divided
along sectional lines. Prohibition is ‘the
main: issue occasioning a split among the
Democrats, while the Republicans . are
faced with the serious problem of recon-
ciling the ‘agricultural West toa policy
which is essentially that of the industrial
East. The Republicans, however, have a
stronger party nationally; their’ press
agents are better; and then there is ever
that old tradition that prosperity is -an
attribute of Republican rule.

Equal Chances for Candidates,
. Hoover’and Smith as outstanding can-
didates of these two parties appear to
have fifty-fifty chances of ultimate suc-
cess. Mr. Hoover is handicapped in the
West’ by his stand on the tariff, in the
Mississippi Valley since he believes that
part of the money for Flood Preventive
work. should be levied from those in. the
afflicted’ area, and. in the South on ac-
count of- his’ radical step in abolishing
race segregation in offices. Mr. Smith
is, also.in “disfayor in the West where
rLowdei” ‘could’ ‘very well beat’ mn. = gH te
addition the fact that Mr. Smith isa
Catholic has been over-much exploited
by the New York World and the New
York Times, Undoubtedly religion will
play both ways and it is almost as unfor-
tunate an issue to bring up during cam-
paigntimes_as the. fact that Mr. Smith
is a member of Tammany Hall, This
word immediately conjures up lurid pic-
tures and makes people forget that Smith

tive living in this country today, and his

Enthusiastic Discussion
Follows Miss Bird’s Talk

The hour or more of discussion which?

followed Miss Bird’s speech on Sunday

evening was perhaps even more stimulat-
ing than her lecture. Discussion seemed

‘to thrive and-glow’in-the-Common Room.

far more than it has ever done in the
dreary. atmosphere of the showcases.
Certainly the interest shown by a com-
paratively large number of people, on
a Sunday. evening, was the most aus-
picious possible inauguration for the new
Bryn Mawr League.

If Miss Bird’s set speech convinced her
hearers of her sincerity and charm, her
power and. command of information in

informal discussion impressed them with

her intelligence and. ability. The. first
subject which came up was the question
of racial difference. Miss Bird was
asked whether there was any truth in
the semi-scientific assertions that the col-
ored race is mentally or physically in-
ferior to. the white, and incapable of
coming up to its standards. “Miss Bird
countered with a list of pure Africans
who have achieved great intellectual and
artistic prominence: Florence - Wheatley,
the young poet; Dr. Du Bois, and Roland
Hayes the singer., Attacked on the other

hand as to whether the mingling of the |

two races produces an inferior or de-
generate “type -she pointed to Booker
Washingéon, son of a white man and a

self did not claim this: for him). But
the question of intermarriage is not a
paramount one to the negro of today,
except as an aspect of whité prejudice
and. timidity. Within his own race at
this moment there is enough to interést
him in the new movement among ‘the
younger people. If color is important to
him, he has all shades from white to
Questioned as to
her personal feeling towards intermar-
riage, Miss Bird confessed candidly that
she could not declare -flatly -against- it;

population, negro banks, negro schools,
negro real estate in homes and farms
have doubled, tripled and increased a
hundred-fold since the Civil~War. De-
cidedly the race is on the up-grade.

question of negro art; is it essentiffty

FRESHMAN NIGHT
Probably two-thirds of the-col-
lege neither know nor care that
Friday of this week is the fme es-
tablished by custom as.-Freshman
Night. And yet, on that night,
Freshmen, warned by theit® class
officers, itl do their dutiful best to
be impudent and daring; Seniors
will strive. listlessly to be indig-
nant and haughty, and parodies,
hastily composed and_ ill-learned,
will be sung haltingly- by the
faithful few. “A bed or two will
~be-pied, a little water spilled here
and there, perhaps some clothes
torn, if there is energy enough for
that. Why do we do it? There is
nothing particularly beautiful or
entertaining in the custom. Fresh-
men no longer need a night when
all their pent-up deviltry and sup-
pressed desires have to be aired
and. exploded; the most belliger-
ent will not claim that they suffer
habitually “from upper-class op-
- pression.

The upholders of custom and
tradition will say that. those who
are not interested need not share
in the night’s doings. But. there
are many who dislike to be brand-
ed as lacking in spirit and loyalty
because they are not enthusiastic
about kicking their friends off a
flight of_stone steps. So they will
go forth wearily to:the fray and
wearily return, all from a sense of

duty. Let us spare them by
quietly abandoning Freshman
Night. To preserve beautiful

traditions is a mark of distinction,
but to-preserve stupid ones for
the satisfaction of a belligerent
and tyrayaical few’is merely an ad-
missiom of weakness.

To the Editors of the College News:

At the risk of being accused of “count-
ing chickens before they are hatched,”
I should-like to suggest a use for the
indefinite sum of money \which we
gleaned from May Day. Rumors of the
amount~indicate:,that- it would be suffi-
cient to endow Goodhart. Hall with dra-
matic .equipment. Now that we have
the stage and auditorium, we really
should have scenery and lighting to
ie ag If possible, too, it would be

a great addition to the college if there
were.a-fund.to pay. for. good. coaching
in plays, Ariyone who took part in one
of the May Day plays will certainly
agree that the good coaching she was
given made a difference not only to thie
play, but to herself. If: the money were
put into this it would be possible to give
at least one really good play a year with*
out charging Broadway prices for ad-
mission.. Varsity Dramatics could then
offer something worth while to the col-
lege—a good play at a nominal price.,
May Day was primarily an artistic
achievement and so it seems only logical
that. the money made. should. be turned
back to make possible other equally suc-
cessful artistic achievements.

Sincerely yours,
Heven F. McKeEtvey.



Future Policy Auwnpaneed

The Lantern’s policy is bound to boil





It |

down to the old question as to the rela-
tive importance of idea and execution.
assumption seems tobe that in our
immature stage of development we can-
not possibly be successful in both, and
that our ideas are of. necessity half-
baked. We are told quite often that we
don’t know life, and that we ‘haven't
even achieved the first requisite of
“knowledge—knowing that we know noth-
ing. Therefore we should stick to the
perfecting of our executive technique, so
that when, at last we achieve ideas we
may be able to express them.
Unfortunately the literary — efforts
called forth by this doctrine are rather
poor reading. Where so much emphasis-
is placed on execution, and so little on
vividness of observation and conception,
our imaginations, already- undernourished,
get badly out of practice. Perhaps it is
the effect of our segregation from the

‘tern, while maintaining a certain tech-

ought to be most sensitive. If the Lan-.

nical standard, can encourage its con-
tributors to appreciate and.make use of

it’ will consider itself a success. Whether

° . ‘ % . .
its readers will consider it so is another | *

question, but surely we, ought to be in-
terested in the genuine thoughts and feel-
ings of our fellow-students. .

‘The Lantern. wishes to encourage art,
as_.well.as. literature, by continuing the
retiring Board’s artistic experiment. The
lingleum cuts used in the last number
cost nothing, and the: Board hopes ‘that.
college artists next year - will be attracted §
to. this effective and inexpensive medium.
Other forms of illustration are a. finan-
cial problem which, we hope to be able
to solve somehow.

And finally, the Lantern wishes te &h-
courage humor.. There must, be more
sense of humor in the whole college th
what can be compressed into a ans
column which, excellént though it is,
represents the activity. of perhaps one
per cent, of the student body. If not,
God help the other ninety-nine! Humor-
ous essays and stories are so rarely
handed in ‘that they create a gentle riot
among the Board ‘whenever they occtit ;
and .serious stories that embody 4a rea-
sonably sprightly view of life are prac-
tically. non-existent... This earnest atti-
tude—another sign sof the prévalent
sogginess—may be due to our youth, or
perhaps ‘to the recently suggested hypoth-
esis that half the_college has been dis-
appointed in love or else it “wouldn’t
be here. Who will rise to refute this
base calumriy, or at least to prove that

even the blighted among us can ‘still ;

laugh at fate? .

In concluding, we ask the college to
remember that in the last analysis our
success depends not on us, but on our
outside support. Unless cuts are handed
in next autumn our art projects will
come to nothing, and our plans for fresh
and vivid literary material are futile
without the co-operation of the talented
in our midst.

The Art Club Exhibit:

“Specially contributed by Miss Laurence)

The Art Club exhibition in Rockefeller
brings again before the college the. reali-
zation of the:small group anxious-for-a
chance to develop their gacility and to
express themselves by means of paint-
ing. That the show -is. not larger or
more ambitious signifies rather of the
pressure of other college work than of
lack of interest. Literary, attempts, it
might be noted’ in passing, although pre-
supposed and _ strongly encouraged for
many years are not numerous either.
There is always for some reason or other
surprisingly little creative work in our

exhibit of last year I am ‘incapable of
comparing or measuring the progress,
but the sketches and studies gathered to-
gether in this May Day year are promis-

Most noteworthy. as a group are Miss
Tuttle’s watercolors. Simply done with



clear, fresh color they convey. the atmos- |

phere of her scenes; the heat of the sit,

the distance of the hills, and are full of
interest which I find lacking in’ her pen |
and ink sketches. _ Miss Haley’s two |
studies show a sureness gf purpose’ and |
certainty of design ~quite mature. Her |
color sdhemes though arbitrary are pleas-
ing and enhance her design, while her



scene might be an. itfdstratiot for “Dun-
sany. In the realm of design pure and
simple are Miss Benoist’s patterns. Har-
monious in color; one would like to see
them used for textiles. She also at-|.
tempts illustration with much success
with her four small men. The block
prints of Miss Perrera and Miss. Fain
show another branch of illustration and
design in black and white.

The stained glass windows that were
so efféctively used in the Cradle Song
again appear. Miss Phillips has given
us some charming twelfth century draw-
ing, but she has taken liberties with her
background as the silver stain she uses

Princeton Is Best-Dressed College.

Princeton students set the pace for the
rest of the collegiate world in clothing
style and are the best-dressed group of
undergraduates in the country, accord-
ing to a survey recently made*by a pub-
lication devoted ‘to men’s wear. Yale
is a close second to Princeton, the survey.
shows.

The percentage of students who pay
$75 or upwards for a suit of clothes is
greater at Princeton thafi at any other
American university. Almost: one-third
of ithe students at Princeton pay $75 or.
more for their suits. ‘The majority of
students in other Eastern Colleges, and
in fact college students.from the ceuntry
as a~whole; -pay~ between $35 and--$45
for-their suits. Yale leads ‘in the per-
centage of students buying tailor-made

Dedication of Goodhart : .

On Wednesday morning, May 2,’
President Parlé announced in chapel that
‘Goodhart Hall had onfy that day been
turnél over by the contractors to the col-
lege. Mr. Goodhart, of New York, gave.
the great hall, which contains the audi-
torium, in memory*@f his wife, a mem-
ber of the class of 1912; in’ reality, only
that. part of the building is to bear her
name,- but it seems wise (at least until
someone sees fit to name the other wings)
to call the whole biiilding Goodhart Hall.
It is to be dedicated onthe Saturday
afternoon before the baccalaureate, for
, it seems that this is the one.day when
- it will be possible for a° maximum num-
ber of alumnae and undergraduates to
_ atteng, °

The seats in the auditorium were givey
by the undergraduates, the curtain by
‘the class of 1899, The present sets are
to be used for plays, when appropriate,
or for any other college. occasion, such
as a-concert. The doors can be re-
» moved, to leave a simple background of

curtains, :

“Theresa Helburn, Director of’ the
Theater Guild, and alumna of the col-
lege, advised the stage settings, and the
color ‘for this: particular drop. It is of
a neutral shade, and is capable df reflect-
ing varied effects of lighting.

The auditorium’ can seat.a few over
one thousand people, and approximately
50 or 60 more chairs canbe added, when
necessary. Because. the aisles have been
made so wide, this may be done without
any danger of infringing upon the fire
rules...

Professor in Print | :
Professor Leuba has a paper on “In-
tuition and Scientific Inspiration” in the
Forum of this month. In the June issue
of Harper’s Monthly he will have an-
other; “The Animal Descent of the Moral
Nature of Man.”



- Before Baccaldureate|



‘Senior Tree Planted,
On. Thursday morning, to the -appro-
priate surprise of all but the. class of '28,
a little new tree appeared on the campus.
The Senior Tree, annually ‘installed in

the dead of night with great ceremony

and secrecy (?), had beeh safely planted.
It occupies a sheltered nook on the path
to Goodhart Hall, just beyond the lower
corner of Rock. It is an elm; just as it
should be. “For. the Students” Building
is said by ‘the architect to cry for elms,
The maples along Roberts road are doing
their best to look elmish, but are be-
trayed by their “tendency to embonpoint.
So this bonafide elm is a’ great addition.
&It.is said also that on that same night
along procession-carrying- lanterns went

anything which - is a trifle curious and

have been mistaken for whites have re-

ored: race as a whole. In the factories}
the negro is the last to get a. job, the f

are concerned, and the first to be fired.

Christ’s Principles Neglected.

The whole situation is labelled with
the failure on both sides to practice thé
principles of Jesus Christ. If, in some
way, this failure could be remedied, the’
result® would be a knowledge that the
negro is abd¥e all a human being; there
would be tolerance” instead of: color

Miss Bird said, she was speaking of this
subject before an audience in one. of the
churches. When. she finished” she felt
that she had at least-given her listeners.
a faint notion of the humaness of the
colored race. As she was leaving, one
of the pillars of the church stepped up
to her and in‘the course of the-conver- ;;
sation remarked: “Isn’t. it too bad we
can’t civilize the negro ?”

The negro group in the United States
has the same amount of goodness and
badness with which any group of’ human
beings is afflicted. There is both ignor-
ance and intelligence, responsibility and
irresponsibility, ambition and shiftlessness
—all'of the characteristics natal to the
human. race_as.a whole. -True, there are
still traces of the “log cabin negro” in

the old ramshackle backwoods. school-
houses. But there are also some of the
most intelligent men of the age among
the negroes.

De Forest Speaks

The opening exercises were held in
an improvised auditorium with siJvered |
walls’ and: modernistic’ decofations. |
Mr. De Forest, who is chairman of the
Advisory Committee of the exposition,
said that ‘every man, woman and. child |
had a right to enjoy appreciatién — of
art, which he declared was ‘one of the
“greatest sources of happiness.

“For a long time,’-he said, “I think
certainly going back to the times of:
my youth, .art seemed to consist
simply of pictures and statues. Now
“we have passed fhat: Art enters into
everything; every one of our surround-
ings.” It is not merely pictures; it is
not merely stafues, It enters into
everything which comes. into our
homes. There can be just as much
art in your curtdins, covering up: your
furniture, your tableware, even in your
kitchen utensils—there is art in every-
thing, and the important. thing ts to
surround . ourselves « with. it and_ to
bring up our children in such. sur-
roundings that they will le#rn to have-|
an ‘enjoyment of it. |

Says Good Art Is Not Costly.

“There is another thing about such
an effort as: this, such an effort as our
department stores can make—because |
Macy’s is not the only one, and which |
to a degree they are making, led «by |
such an example as they have here. |
