THE COLLEGE NEWS
; . Undergraduate Pledges
“Peggy Little announced that the
Undergraduate Drive mmittee, in
co-operation ‘with Mrs.- Collins, had
completed the collection of pledge
cards and that as a result the quotas
for the various halls could be pub-
“lished, together with an announcement
of how much had been raised so far.
It is expected that $5,000 of our pledge
will be raised by the many tourna-
ments, plays, etc., which are being
planned and ‘that the Halls would be
responsible for raising the rest either
from themselves or their parents.

If only Fortune could have been
here to photograph a real Fashion
Show! Campus celebrities were thick
on Goodhart stage during the next
skit, while Dr. Grey did his best to
take pictures of the various under-
graduates, portrayed by faculty mem-
bers. First Miss Howe came by on
her way to hockey; next Mrs. Brough-
ton walked in front of the audience,
dressed in a trailing Indian print. The
real imitatf#ns soon began: Mrs.
Crenshaw wore Margaret Kidder’s
hat, so that no one doubted that she
was the owner of that unique head-
gear; Miss Walker was Sophie Hemp-
hill; Miss Lograsso burlesqued Betty
Bryan. Hulda Cheek, herself, could
not have been more like herself than
Miss Linn was, gloves, voice and all.
Miss Requa and Miss Fernon were
Betty Lord and Sally Park, respect-
ively. Evelyn Thompson, Agnes Hal-
sey, Isabelle Seltzer, Sarah Flanders
and Mary Howe DeWolfe all crossed
the stage in their best manner. Very
large bunches of flowers go to Miss
Palfrey and Miss Bancroft for their
imitations of/ Jean Porter and Bar-
bara Lewis.’ They not only looked ex-
actly like them, but spoke in voices so
much like Miss Porter’s and Miss
Lewis’s that those two students near-
ly had hysterics themselves. We now
mention what was probably one of the
higher points of the evening — Dr.
Nahm wrapped in a flowing blue cape,
‘a brightly colored handkerchief on his
head, and a large hand-bag by his
side, tripping across the stage; Paul-
ine Manship had been with us!
There seem to be innumerable plans
for getting rid of Dalton. In the fac-
ulty show even the gods on high were
used as devices. Dr. and Mrs. Ander-
son were a mighty pair; Juno urged
the destruction of the frail building;

Jupiter threw his thunderbolt. All of

the building, a beautifully constructed
miniature, which rapidly lost two
wings before our very eyes. Dr. Ten-
nent in his genuine Volunteer Fire
Department suit drove up in Dr.
Dewey’s Austin; he wanted to quench
the flames; but his scientific associates
restrained him.
“ In the final chorus Mrs. Collins and
Dr. Watson, Mrs. Diez and Dr. Mac-
Kinnon danced the Cachuca. They
were all even more light on their feet
es a good deal more exaggerated in
their movements than those under-
graduates who did the same dance last
year. As the last words of-the con-
cluding song came forth, and as the
heavy curtains were pulled across the
stage, every person in the audience
was laughing and clapping with all
of the feeble strength ‘which three
hours of ceaseless merriment had left
him. Much Ado But Not For Nothing
was not only a success in that it was
supreme entertainment and in that it
went over financially, but also because
it succeeded in telling the undergrad-
uates as a whole, in sugar-coated
form, that the faculty knows: just
about as much as they do.

The student organizations of these
five colleges have different names,
though their functions, besides those |
already mentioned, are much the same.
Wellesley has—a Senate consisting of"
student and faculty members, a
Council which is composed of st faents
only. Smith has a Student
with no faculty members. Mt. Holyoke
has a legislative body, called the
Hotse of Representatives, in which
faculty members are included. Vassar
has a very satisfactory system: the
chief student officers. are the president
of the Student Association, who cor~
responds to Bryn Mawr’s Undergradu-
ate Association president, and _ the
Chief , Justice, corresponding to our
president of Self-Government. There
are four major organizations at Vas-
sar, the Church, Political, Dramatic,
and Athletic ‘Associations. The first
includes all Social Service work, and
the second the International Relations
Club, and debating. All smaller club:
and organizations come under thesé
four heads.

regularly posted, and its bulletin is
printed in-their Miscellany. Selections
from the bulletins are printed in the

has no place in the college programs
of Smith and Wellesley. It is valua-
ble since, through it, students work on
the same problems, and because it
awakens an interest in national af-
fairs.
