Varsity Team Loses

, Game for First Time

Merion Cricket Club Wins 4-2;
Germantown vs. 2nd Team

Is Tied, 5-5





PLAY LACKS IN DRIVE



On Saturday morning, the Varsity
hockey team went down to its first
defeat of the season, bowing to the
Merion Cricket Club, 2-4.

Merion had. Bryn Mawr on the de-| :

fensive throughout the first half and
scored’ three goals on straight drives
down the field. Varsity seemed . to
lack all its usual punch and co-opera-
tion; the passing was short and usu-
ally ineffectual; few rushes were
made and the backfield rarely tackled
until the opponents had the’ball with-
in striking distance of the goal. Sev-
eral opportunities to score were off-
ered on corners, but the free shot- was
either missed entirely or easily
blocked by the Merion line. Other
attempts to score were either way
wide of the mark or stopped by the
excellent playing of Miss Page, the

- great center of the Merion defense,

who seemed to. be able to anticipate
Varsity’s every move. .

Varsity came back with a vengeance
in the second half, with Cary leading
the attack and scoring the two goals.

’ The defense stiffened up considerably,

worked better with the forwards and
allowed Merion to score only one
more goal. The forwards, however,
faded out again, several pretty shots
from the wing dribbling across the
field only inches from the goal, but
with no one there to give them a
crack into the cage. Have we only
a phantom forward line after all, or
is it that the team missed the driving
spirit of Kent at center half, for cer-



tainly something was sadly lacking
in Saturday’s play?

In a fast-moving, high-scoring sec-
ond team hockey game against Ger-
mantown Cricket Club II on Monday,
the Bryn Mawr Reserves were held to
a 5-5 stalemate, The game was hard
fought, and there were numerous at-
tacks by both sides which gave the
sidelines many thrills. German-
town brought an improved team to
avenge its earlier overwhelming de-
feat several weeks ago. They start-
ed out vigorously and soon poked a
shot past goalie Leighton. Soon af-
ter Bryn Mawr rallied when a few
minutes later, Jo Taggart sent in a
beautiful shot from her position at
right wing. The play swung back
and forth for the next few moments
until Germantown launched an in-
spired attack which netted them two
points by Dot Sigel and a firm grasp
on the lead at half time. Starting
with the first minute of the final per-
iod the Bryn Mawr combination
snapped out of their earlier sluggish-
ness and goals by Rosie Bennett and
Taggart enabled us to tie the score.
Germantown, however, retaliated with
a pretty shot by the right inner



Ginns and wrested the lead away once
more. After much aimless running
about, characterized by a noticeable
lack of co-operation between the de-
fense and the forwards, Hope Gimbel

rushed_through-to-put the tying shot |

past Lewis. A few minutes later
Varsity reserves took the lead on a
pretty drive of Bennett’s. This lead
was held tenaciously by the rapidly
tiring Bryn Mawr defense, as the
states pyf ~*~ Segan to descend
over the hockey field. But with
scarcely 15 seconds of play remain-
ing, Kitty- McLean sent a drive into
the goal cage despite Leighton’s fran-
tic efforts to save it. Before play
could be resumed the whistle blew

for the end of the game.

Social Service Work
Needs New Traditions



“I think the traditions of public
service in this country need to be
made over,” said Miss Kahn, speaking
in the Common Room Friday. Miss
Kahn, who has been for the past two
years in charge of Philadelphia Emer-
gency Relief Work, went on to say
that Americans always think of oblig-
atory public service in connection with
foreign countries, such as England,
where it is the obligation of all

‘tions vitally need the

thoughtful citizens.

At the present time when the coun-
try is full of Emergency Relief or-
ganizations which are”"manty—_, ~
cial Workers, and many of which a.
under Civjl Service; opportunities in
this branch of. work are many and
their number will be continually ex-
panded. These vast numbers of posi-
ability, the
training, and the quality of intellect
that colleges aim to produce. Only the
sort of person who has objectively con-
sidered economic principles can fill
these jobs.

Government positions will in the
future be more and more under’ Civil
Service. No local social work and
very few of such positions are under
Civil Service now. Miss Kahn and
her staff have been experimenting for
some time with examinations which
will soon become formal and routine
for most of the positions open in So-
cial Service. These examinations are
both written and oral. Miss Kahn and
her colleagues insisted upon a college
degree as a prerequisite to these ex-
aminations, although the State want-
ed them to offer the examinations to
anyone who had had even a little col-
lege training. In the future some spe-
cial college courses may be required
for the candidates. Preference is giv-
en, in filling vacancies, to college grad-
uates who have also had some profes-
sional training. The Philadelphia
Board has given employment to well-
qualified workers who do not live in
Philadelphia County or even in Penn-
sylvania, for they go on the theory
that these relief organizations are na-




tional, not local. Very few Bryn Mawr



graduates have taken the examina-
tions in the past. Miss Kahn hopes
that more will do so in the future.

y

After the workers have passed their .

examinations they enter-upon-what is

coming to be the probationary period,
as Junior Visitors, beginning with sal-
aries of $80 to $100 a month. An at-
tempt is being made to raise this scale
of wages in proportion to the individ-
ual candidate’s preparation. A plan

“*-~nsing the State employment. agen-

“ues as training fields for social work
is under consideration, since there is

a great deal of interviewing to be ©

done in these agencies.

Each Junior Visitor handles from
one hundred to one hundred twenty-
five families. The visitor’s primary
responsibility is to determine the eligi-
bility of each family for relief, to dis-
cover other problems the family may
have, and to refer’it for the allevia-

tion of these problems to other facili- .

ties and resources of the community.
The workers must get at all sorts of
information, such as. the employabil-

ity of the various members of the fam- :

ilies. Therefore the State’s whole

knowledge of a family depends on the |

visitor’s estimate of it.

There are a great many executive
and administrative jobs
with: Emergency Relief organizations
(about 1,300 in Philadelphia Emer-

gency Relief alone), for which college

training would prove useful. The de-

connected .

Ps)

cisions that must be made in such ”

work require more background .-and
imagination than the average clerk
possesses. If unemployment insurance
or even compulsory registration of un-
employed comes into practice, there
will be a great increase in the num-

ber of visiting jobs open, similar to

those in Emergency Relief with simi-
lar opportunities for intreviewing and
field contacts. If a study of unem-
ployment statistics is begun, there will
be many openings for research
workers.
