DRIVE IS NEXT WEEK



The ‘Christian Association will begin
its drive for funds on Monday, Novem-
‘ber 7. Its. budget includes many worth
while activities, which will be explained
more fully*in chapel talks during the
week of the campaign.

One of C. A.’s most interesting activi-
ties is Bates House, the summer camp
for city children at Long: Branch, New].
Jersey. Bates House is a large summer |’
home, set in a big garden, and lent for
the purpose by its owner, Mrs. Bates; it
accommodates about forty children be-
sides the staff. During July and August
three groups of pale, shy, slum children
are sent from New York or Philadelphia
to thrive on the country air, and be re-
turned at the end of two weeks, healthy,
rosy and uproarious. Six or eight Bryn
Mawr students aid the permanent worker
and the “noice” (Bates House dialect for
“nurse”) in taking care of them—teach-
ing them games and songs, watching
them at the beach, telling stories, and see-
ing that they eat their gretn vegetables.

New Chinése School

The Yuet Wah Middle School, Canton,
China, is another worthy project. It
was started by Liu Fung Kei, Bryn
Mawr, ’22, to be a school that was “not
for propaganda, for business, nor for
‘positions, but for giving the children
true education.” There are about fifty,
or sixty pupils, most of them day scho-
lars, and they are instructed in modern
Chinese and in English. Athletics play
an important part in the schedule, and
Liu Fung Kei attempts to teach the
parents in their care of the children, and
to have a high moral standard. The
school is in a carefully selected building,
but there is need of many improvements
which necessitate financial aid. This
school has been placed on the budget of
C. A. to take the place of the Student
Friendship Fund which will have its own
campaign, so that we can feel we. are

Yellows Play Circles
All Around Varsity

Varsity was smothered, 11-6, on ‘Sat-
urday by the relentless offensive of the
Yellows team. Our defense was slashed
into ribbons as ‘time and time again their
forward line ripped through for a clear
shot at the goal. Al Bruere, defending
the cage, was in an unenviable ‘position.
She alone had the task of warding off
the fierce assaults of the five Opposing
forwards.

In the first half we were oc
outclassed, The Yellows, ‘playing as a
team, each sure of her position and her
intentions, ran circles around our eleven
individuals.- Each person on Varsity was
playing her own game, often brilliantly,
but utterly without co-operation with
anyone else. The result was pande-

right place at the ‘right time or to,know
where the others were in relation to her-
self. The Yellows, no better man for
man than we were, made up an efficient

machine. -

.»* for the Yellows made by Dot Lee (Mrs.

Haslam). From that time on the ball

was kept up at our end pretty continu-
ously. Occasionally one of our forwards
would break away for a long run down
the field to fail in the circle because of

| Miss Ely Explains’ Conference]

Which She Attended in
Honolulu.

e



‘In Chapel on Wednesday morning
Miss Ely spoke on the conference in
Honolulu of the Institute of Pacific Re-|}
lations, This conference, held every
two years, was started by Mr. Atherton,
a man concerned with shipping in the
“Pacific. It seemed to him-that a con-
ference of the countries which used the
Pacific for trading would make for a
mutual understanding of difficulties, and
therefore would promoté international
peace.. The first meeting was held in
1925.

The members, men and women inter-
ested in international relations for one
reason or another, are chosen from ten
different countries. Some of them are
teachers and: missionaries, others are in-
terested in questions of race, government,
or finance. Most of the delegates went
from San Francisco to Hawaii on the
boat together, and so became acquainted
beforehand. Plenty of reading material
on the subjects of the conference was
supplied; everyone arrived somewhat
prepared. The headquarters were at a
preparatory school in Honolulu. Round
tables © were held here in the mornings;
the afternoons were given over to amuse-
ment. Motor trips were made over the
island, and there was much. bathing, in
characteristic national fashion, at the
Waikiki beach, :

Every One Was Frank

One of the most impressive things
about the conference was that people
were so frank and honest in their ‘state-
ments. In spite of racial difficulties
there were very few. hurt feelings. Eng-
lish was the languagé used, in deference
to the majority. This was harder for the
Japanese delegates than any others; the
Chinese, spoke fluently and expressively.
Curiously enough, the Americans and
the British understood each other with
great difficulty. The subjects under dis-
cussion were mandates, labor, industry,
race, communications, and foreign loans.

Some of the more prominent of: the
American “ members were President
Woolly, of Mt. Holyoke; Mrs. Carrie
Chapman Catt, President Comstock, of
Radcliffe; Mr, Crowly, of The New Re-
public, and Stephen Duggan. Other im*
portant members were.Colonel Manton
Davisy of -the Radio Corpofation of
America; Dr. Edward Hume,, lately
president of Yale-in-China; Ivy Lee, the
publicity man; Paul Sharrenby, of the
San Francisco A. F. of L.; Dr. James
Shotwell, and President Wilbur, of
Stanford.

Miss Schenck Talks
on Graduate School

“Undergraduates: have much to gain
from contact with graduates,” said Miss
Schenck, in Chapel, on Friday, October
28th. “I am not suggesting a formula
for friendships. Friendships take care
of themselves, and those of us wlio have
a long perspective have seen many last-
ing ones grow up between these ‘two
groups that are said so often by silly

of honor at a tea in Rockefeller on Mon-
day a¥ternoon, October 31,

During the two weeks they have been
in this country these twenty-year-olds
have averaged eight engagements a day.
One of the people they have met is H. L.
Mencken; who, Miss. Mann says, told
her “Everybody drinks here, even my
|grandmother.” She has never been of-
fered so much hard liquor, insher life
before.

Speaking of the plays they had seen
in. New York, Miss Mann said that the
not-so-good plays here: were much better
than those of the same class in Berlin;
but that there was more serious problem
drama abroad. “Here the main object
seems to be amusement.” ‘Miss Mann
knows whereof she speaks since she is
the daughter of Thomas Mann, the Ger-
man dramatist.” She is negotiating the
‘sale of the movie rights to one Of ghis

fornia where they expect to stay six
weeks.

Saturday they spent at Princeton,
where they saw William and Mary de-
feated. “It is a much rougher game
than German football,” said Miss Mann,
“but the band was wonderful with cute
little caps.” She acknowledged that she

WILL CO-EDUCATION
ANSWER PROBLEM?

Opinions Gleaned from Clip-
pings Show Active Interest
in Women’s Gollewed.





ADMIT ECONOMIC NEED

“The Question of the Women’s Col-
leges,” as set’ forth in the November
Atlantic Monthly) by the heads of seven
eastern colleges, and partially reprinted
in last week’s Coriecek News has at-
tracted widespread notice and comment.
About thirty-five newspaper clippings
comprise front page articles «and edi-
torials viewing the situation from every
angle.

The commonest solution to the problem
‘offered by these writers is- Co-education.
They consider it inevitable, and most of

them are satisfied. The Evening World,

however, looks on that with alarm; in
an editorial entitled “Lest a Worse Thing
Befall!” we read “Here is a prophecy
which the deans were not brutal enough
to make; girls are not going to stop
going to college: If there isn’t room
and money enough for them at the girls’
colleges—there are the ig, finely-en-
dowed plants and staffs of instruction
at the men’s colleges.-—Co-education is
the inevitable, irresistihle atiswer. So, if
the: wealthy’ graduates of these men’s
colleges warit to, keep their alma mater
free from the women’s invasion, they’d
better give an endowment thought to
Vassar and Smith as well as to Yale and
Princeton!” .

Sin Not Extinct

Individualism Is Good, but We
Must Develop Own Moral -
Standard.











The chapel service of the Christian
Association on Sunday, October 30, was
led by Millicent Carey,,class of 1920.

“There are certain words,” said Miss
Carey, “which, although they meant a
great deal to our fathers and grand-
fathers, have disappeared almost entirely
from our presefit-day vocabularies. The
word ‘sin’ is one of them. There is an
excellent reason for this: the word ‘sin’
has no definite connotation to us; we
dislike it because it. suggests another
word shunned by the modern generation
—repression.

“Individualism is, . primarily, the order
of the day. In many ways this charac-
teristic of our age is a good one. We
do not, in general, worry so much about
the faults of our associates.

Develops Own Standard

“There must be, however, some defi-
nite standard of right and wrong, which
each one of us, as an individual, must de-
velop for herself. Too generally do we
look at wrong in relation to how it is
going to effect other people. If it does
not infringe on the happiness of others,
we think it of little consequence to our
own moral rating.

“There are two groups of people to be
considered here: first, those who are
entirely indifferent to conduct except as
it affects the individual herself; and sec-
ond, those who discuss ‘immortality’ and
‘tragedy’ with the idea that their own
feeble discussions and conclusions will
ultimately solve all the difficulties of life.
While they blithely discuss these theories,
little do they imagine that ‘tragedy’|

‘awaits them in the smaller experiences

of their brief existence. 4
“*Sin’ is not extinct; and ‘the wages
of sin is death’.”



Sophomores Gain Solid,
Not Brilliant, Victory

1930 achieved a victory over 1931 in
a none too brilliant game on Wednesday
with a score of 4-1. The passing of
both teams was very wild; there was
much bunching, and many fouls. Hirsch-
berg and Brown were the only efficient
Sophomore backs. Hirschberg, in par-
ticular, made some good stops and fol-
lowed up well. Longstreth and Stix
stood out on the forward line. On, the
Freshmag team Blanchard and Sanborne
made several good dribbles down the
field, while Baer in the backfield . was
on the job. Rieser, the Freshman goal,
was excellent. The line-up was: 1930—
Parkhurst, Longstreth*, Stix**, Sulli-
van, Taylor*, (Wilson), Coney, Skid
more, Hirschberg, Brown, Houck, E.
Smith. 1931—Rieser, Totten*, (Moore),
Blanchard, Adams, Hobart, Sanborne,
Benham, Tatnell, Waples, Baer, Thomp-
son.

CULTIVATE. INHIBITIONS

In Chapel on Monday morning Dean
Manning spoke ‘briefly on the younger
generation. As a subject, she said that
it was greatly over-rated, and not ‘nearly
as important as mary others, Referring
to her article in McCall's Magazine, she



aged in mind as an audience. But as
usual, adjectives and phrases were re-
printed out of context, giving a some-
what false impression, which she wished
to correct.

This generation 1s not any nore docile
and conservative than any other; it is
itievitable that young people should be
conservative, Independent thinking can-
not be expected of them until they ate
at least twenty-five. As they are brought
up and educated they are taught certain
theories and precepts; they require titre
to compare and consider these before they
adopt them or cast them aside.

Post-War Youth Disappointing

Although the problems of young: people
are always much the same, there have
been some new ones since nineteet+
twenty. It was rather hoped that post-
war classes would do great things,
because of their freedom from handicaps,
their opportunities for independent, con-
structive thinking. But on the whole,
they seem scarcely in the frame of mind
to take advantage of this. All respon-
sibility for leadership in such work is
being avoided; little thinking or planning
is done. This generation has absorbed
from the atmosphere too much of a

evading personal responsibilities, for ac-
quiring experience before we attempt
constructive work. This idea has been
taken too seriously; the fallacy here is
that experience as such has never ad-
vanced, the human race much. The
world has always gone forward through
the creative urge, the desire to perfect
one’s craftmanship, to be not only a
reporter of etnotions and experiences, but
a creative being. Unfortunately two de-
cisions have come into conflict. We think
we have had to choose between doing a

| job well and experiencing all possible

experiences. There are too many “drink-
deepers” among us, and they are taken
too seriously. The only way the human
race has made much progress is by “cul-

advised Lorelei Lee.

Messy Game Ends with

Victory for Juniors
The Juniors carried away the rather



against the Seniors by a 6-2 score. Both
teams played, very messily, although with
plenty of spirit. In the first half neither
side functioned as a team; merely eleven
individuals, some brilliant and some not.
Tuttle and Loines shone for the Seniors,
while Wills, Woodward and Freeman

Wills carried the ball well, used her head,
and was the only Red forward: who hit
hard in the circle and rushed the goal.
Woodward's defense was consistently
dependable. At the end of the half ~
score was 3-1, due mainly to Wills’
sistent attack,

the second half and the Juniors’ forward
line was*immensely improved. Humph-

WHAT ABOUT C. A. GIRLS?

~ Miss Stetson’s letter to the
News last week on the subject of
C. A. Girls was both timely and
to the point. Surely, there is no
one who would not welcome a
change in the old system. “

Sending a form ‘letter to each
incoming Freshman would obvi-
ate one of the chief embarrass-
ments. Who has not struggled
over a letter of this sort, striving
to give the “right” impression of
college, to be friendly and yet not
officious? And are the recipients
of these letters made particularly
‘happy by them? Immediately
they are faced with the problem
of writing a reply, and what a

uation,-however, that Miss Stetson

.cently invented at M. I. T., which
thinks for itself may. lead to_un-

too complex for the human brain
to master, and it will grind out the
answer and .write it down as ef-
ficiently as a machine takes in
lumBer and chemicals and’ pro-
duces finished boxes of matches.”

We grow positively dizzy as we
contemplate the future.

Another great. step has been
taken in the mechanical transform-
ation of the world. The Machine
Age, in truth. We have already
had most of the activities of the
human hand taken over by
mechanical devices. Now even
the brain is being made over into
a machine. Should we hail this
opening wedge as meaning eman-
cipation or destruction? Certainly
such a “mechanical mind” would
save much earthy drudgery. No
more cramming dates or statistics
for an examination; take a por-
table brain to class, and you will
get a 100% efficient answer in half
the time usually required for a
poor one. This is indeed emanci-
pation. But on the other hand
would there be any need for the|
brain to exist if all its functions
were usurped by a. chine?
The brain, a slow oldefashioned
vehicle of thought, would prob-
ably become as obsoléte as the
pituitary body.



PROGRESS IN THE MIDDLE-
WEST

That progressive city Indianap-
olis, in having two mayors at. the
same time, has.pointed the way to
a new development in government.
This indication is by no means to
be taken lightly; its possibilities
are almost unlimited. Surely any
large, self-respecting American
city can afford salary and _ silk
hats enough for two. For in a
seaport the heav y business in wel-
coming requires the faithful work
of two men. The wear and tear
on one is beyond the limits of en-
durance and efficiency.. Then, too,
if His Honor feels that he should
go in for theatricals, or the inves-
tigation of transit problems, both
fulltime occupations, it is essen-
tial that there should be sqgmeone
to carry on the trifling but neces-
sary details of government. Indi-
anapolis has done some independ-
ent thinking at last. “We have
nothing but praise for her.

- COMMUNICATIONS

(The Cor.eck News is not responsible
for opinions expressed in this column.)
To the Editors of the Corieck News:

Is the tuneful presence of other classes
necessary at elections? No, we do not
think it is.

The faint murmurings of the few
people who will come to elections is in
no way a moral support to the electing
class. We are vaguely conscious that
the other classes are present, but the very
fact that we ofttimes blunder out a Latin
cheer to the sister class is proof that the
interest of the electing class is solely in
the elections.

Moreover, the attendance of other
classes at elections is authentic evidence
that few people are actually interested
enough to come. In an atmosphere of
forced activity, our ‘presence at such
secondary functions seems to be of little
or no importance,

helping an Alumna of the College.

- Miss Tsuda’s School is another school
in. Japan that owes its existence to a
Bryn Mawr Alumna. It, too, wil) be
included. in the budget, and C. A. hopes
to be able to help it as generously as it
has in the past. Not only is it directly
connected with the college through its
founder, but the work it is doing in the
field of Chinese education is undisputably
necessary and- inspiring.

There is no more worth while work
than that of Dr. Grenfell in Labrador.
Since he first arrived in Labrador in
1892 the doctor “has unstintedly given of
his best to the sick and needy of the
coast.” He has founded or helped to
found seven hospitals, three orphanages:
and three public schools, as well as a
large industrial establishment which is
of great value. Skilled doctors and
nurses and university students are gager
to volunteer their -services in. helping in
the work. Dr. Grenfell has recently
been knighted by King George in recog-
nition! of all that he has done.

Some Object to Co-education

Another’ objection to the panacea of
co-education is given by the Evening
Public Ledger; “—there are persons who
object to co-education. There must be
separate colleges for the daughters of
such, and they deserve adequate support.
It must come from such people; and
unless_there_is_a_radical_reversal_in_pre-
vailing views, it is bound to come in
adequate amounts in the course of time.”

“Pay as You Go” is another remedy,
suggested by the Register, New Haven,
Conn. his is another evidence of the
truth of the statements made by John
D. Rockefeller, Jr., in his address “at
Brown last spring. He said the time
had come when our institutions of learne
ing must stop trying to furnish educa-
tion at less than actual cost, relying on
endowments to make up the difference.”
Public School Students Go Elsewhere

The Philadelphia Bulletin is more in-
terested in the decrease of students from
public schools, and seeks to give an ex-
planation of this. “The condition which
they report, in the lessening proportion
of students from the public school. sys-
tem, must be considered in view of the
increase in other facilities of higher edu-
cation which are offered the American
girl of the average family,today. Time
was when this group of women’s colleges
had their field largely to themselves.
The tompetition of co-educational insti-
tutions, the establishment of technical
schools fostered by the constantly widen-
ing spread of women’s activities, the
improvement of normal schools, all tend
to divert high school girls seeking higher
education, and if a census of young

-women students heyond the lines of the

public school system. were to be _taken
there probably would be found a larger

percentage than at any time in the past.”
~ Ina New York Times editorial on the |

question of whether Americans believe
in educating women, we read: “Some
months ago’ Dr. Abraham Flexner, in
answer to the broader question, ‘Do
Americans value education?’ said that
we really do not. At any rate, though
we prize ‘educational spread’ and do

-value-prolongation of youth, comrade-

ship, fun, sport, ‘happiness at an’ easy.

productive, non-energized level,” and to].

During this }

“A different ” answer is given by “the
crowded classes of all our colleges -for
women and the generally incommensurate
number .of women in co-educational in-
stitutions. An ever-increasing number of
parents do believe i edueating thelhs
daughters and public s timént does gen-
erally ask as much for the girl as for
the boy. . There is no longer a question
of women’s mental ‘capacity, nor is there
a disposition not. to. gives her as great
an educational opportunity as her
brother. '

Women Given Equal Chance
“li women and men are to sit side’ by |'
side ‘upon the skirts of time, full summ’d
in all their powers,’ then nist the same
educational, opportunities already | con-
ceded in theory and chivalric sentiment
be in justice: given’ women as have: in
larger. measure through the longer tinie
been given to men, “

The Boston Franscribt: sums up the
problem presented and concludes its edi-
torial: “The presidents of these famous
institutions for women do not deny that
about each of them ‘a gfamour of tem-
poral well-being’ exists today.
contrary, they readily admit this. But
the air of prosperity round about the
beautiful campuses of the girls’ colleges
they hold is a deceptive area. They ask

and beyond it to realities of a more
stern and perplexing sort. They show,
in their present article, what these reali-
ties are. Thoughtful minds will. dwell
long upon this unusual message, heed its
warning, and do all in their power to
preserve America’s colleges for women
on their rightful upward road, safe from
any backsliding.”

The - Return of Don Quixote, by G. K.
* Ghesterton : Dodd, Mead and Co,. *

A fantasy and’ a satires this recent
book of Mr. Chesterton's; and the resttlt
at the combination is tharoaghly charm-
ing. It is formed of such seemingly in-
compatible subjects as a mad librarian
sitting for twenty-four hours on the
highest ..hookshelf, studying. up. on
medieval rotmdneé, and 4 heated debate
about British- politics with speciaf atten-
tion_to the Labor Party. .
As Cervantes’ Don Quixote was a
satire, this, too, satirizes modern social
“reformers; and,, as Cervanites was swept
away by the fantasy of his subject, Ches-
terton also gives us page after page. of
highly romantic ‘adventures.

The story starts with both feet on the
ground—a perfectly’ normal group of
people are about to give a play, and are
faced. with the vety* usual difficulty of
lacking a .person for one part. From
this matter of fact beginning, it rises at
exactly the right rate of speed, until it
reaches a height where it is not incon-
gruous to. have the feudal system rein-
stated in England, and the mad librarian
made king. :

There are scenes in the book that one
can never forget—“Monkey” Murrel on
his hansom cab rescuing Dr. Hendry,
the reincarnated Don Quixote solemnly
entering that same cab, with. the rein-
carnated Sancho Panza enthroned on the

was to have been shown ‘up for an
ignoramus, but instead became the lion
of the party. Monkey’s long search for
the coveted shade of red pigment, and
his adventures on the way, could stand
alone as a commentary on modern indus-
trial conditions.

The characters are as se suiilalle as
the incidents “Monkey Murrel,” Herne,
Olive Ashley and Braintree, are only a
few; and it is with unflagging delight
that we follow them through their
astounding adventures.

Disraeli, by ‘Andre Maurois.

Andre Maurois, author ‘of the well-
beloved Ariel, the self-revealing Bernard
Quesnay, the collection of short biog-
raphies, \/ape, and numerous other in-
teresting volumes, has recently published
a life of Disraeli, the “transplanted
Bedouin.” He explains his choice of this
new subject as follows, “Disraeli was a
Conservative, which I am, but he was
fie kind of Conservative who wished to
take_into account the needs of ~the
people.” The portrait, of this very inter-
esting man, who was regarded as some-
thing almost akin to a mystic by the
people of his own day, has been mast¢r-
fully painted by M. Maurois, in the man-
ner of. cleverly interlacing strokes of
material fact, delightful understanding,
and charming humor.

Perhaps no other of the great English
personalities could have been so well

stead; each of: his books seems tg ‘have
been published after some, comparatively
serious or influential egisis in his life,
and’ Maurois discusses each in relation
to the life and problems of its author.

Disraeli’s character is one of ambition,
patience, and generosity. His motto be-
comes, “Never explain, never complain,”

and he lives by it throughout his life, in
the course of which we are: brought into

Mr. Mann, who will speak on the Gee

he had only had an indirect connection
with the ““Wandervoegel.” _In-trying to
explain these he said that they area

To Speak Here Later

- Disraeli, whose grandfather was an edu-
cated Italian Jew, was regarded by his
youthful contemporaries as not “belong-
ing.” He was something of a fop, he
delighted in the tales of romantic adven-
ture which were not quite so dear to
the hearts of the, stolid young Britishers,
and he was always inexpressibly ambi-
tious. “It seemed. to him that life would
be intolerable if he were not the greatest
of men; not one.of the greatest, but the
_yery greatest.” To the eyes of a French-
man,” however, even. Disraeli so i
appear in some’ shade of the E
lish colors; he could be judged aay
and to Maurois, perhaps, his love of the
mystical could be quite explicable. The
author and his subject, then, are
eminently well suited.
In his youth Disraeli was very much
influenced by Byron, whom, by: the way,
he had never seen. His conversation was
always of the most clever; his epigrams,
at an older age, were the talk of Lon-
don, and his whole manner was of par-
ticular charm to the ladies. Throughout
‘his life Dsiraeli corresponded with vari-
ous women, confided in them, and found
of
friendships. Towards the end the
book, the tragedy of old age comes to
the man who has been sucha true, wor-
shiper at the altar of youth and. beauty,
and even then he retains one woman

fmuch of the shyness natural among
strange circumstances, and, too, they will
be better able to compare German and
American life and literature. That will
be a wonderful occasion for us to- make

its present tendencies better even than
