VARSITY BASKET BALL

TEAM   REMAINS  UNDEFEATED
Adding one more complete, well-merited
victory to their record, Varsity defeated
Swarthmore with a score of 36-22, in an
exciting game last Saturday morning.
Victory was due to "the good work of
Varsity, not to the poor playing of their
opponents. Swarthmorc's passing was very
good, and their forwards and guards were
excellent. A deplorable number of fouls
were called on both teams, and had all the
tree throws been successful, the score
would have almost doubled. The play was
wild and very rough in the first half, but
jhe substitution of H. Rice, '23, for W.
Dodd, '25, seemed to tone down the for-
wards, and the team played one of its best
^ames. A. Clement, '23, was exceptionally
good,* playing a much quicker game than
usual. Rice, sure and steady, passing gen-
erously to C Remak, '25, and working well
with her, steadied the whole game. Remak
was in unusually good form. Varsity will
play the University of Pittsburgh next
Saturday. The team defeated Bryn Mawr
last year, 28-22.

The preliminary meet of the first and
second apparatus teams was*held in the
gymnasium last Friday afternoon, but the
cores were not announced in order to
prevent intensified coaching during the
week preceding the final meet.
Just l>efore the meet began, a large bou-
quet of roses arrived "for the winning

Buchanan, '24, Manager of Apparatus, on
the request of the teams, since the results
of the preliminaries could not be announced.
According to a decision of fhc captains
and managers, rope climbing and Indian
club drill were omitted. Team and indi-
vidual exercises and vaults on horse and
bars, and class stunts were the only fea-
tures. Individual competitors included K.

FOG   DISPERSION   TOPIC   OF
TALK AT SCIENCE CLUB TEA
Dr.   Crenshaw   Describes   Method
Which Promises Success
The possibilities of the method, recently
developed by Bancroft and Warren of dis
persing, clouds and fogs by means of elec-
trified sand were*discujssed by Dr. Cretv
sha\V, Associate Professor of Physical
Vhemistry, in an informal talk at the Sci
encc CltlB Tea, last Thursday afternoon.
The problem, he explained, belongs in
Colloid Chemistry. A colloidal system re-
sults when one of two substances, which
arc in contact with each other, can be sus-
pended in the other in the form of tiny
particles. Examples are found in the sus-
pension of gases in liquids�air in beaten
white o,f egg�and of solids in solids, which
occurs in rubies, and sapphires. Fogs are
made of liquid, and smokes of solid, par-
ticles suspended in gas*?.
A number of colloidal systems, like
clouds, are stable and the question of dis-
persing a fog or cloud comes down to the
destruction of its stability. In any colloidal
suspension, if the particles are free to hit
each other, they collide, stfck together, and
settle out. Since they are all in continual
motion, they will ultimately strike each
other unless they are/^ep^ apart. Ob-
viously, if they have /fclcct?ical charges'of
the same signf they wiu^rcpcl one another
and. the system will be stable. Such
charged colloids can be precipitated by in-
troducing an oppositely charged substance,
because the particles unite and fall out

COLLEGE  RING  DISCUSSED AT
UNDERGRADUATE   MEETING  I
Board to Appoint Committee to
i   Investigate Matter
After a long discussion at a meeting of
the Undergraduate Association in Taylor
last Thursday it was decided to refer the
question of changing the college ring to
a committee.       ,
Frances Childs, '23, moved to keep the
ring as it is and repeated the argument
which she advanced at a previous meeting:
. the difficulty of getting a ring everyone
likes, the necessary expense of a good one,
and the element of permanency necessary
to have a college ring mean anything. It
was suggested that to change the ring was
establishing a bad precedent and the mo-
tion was amended!!) read, that the present
ring be kept for fifteen years. This mo-
tion   and   the   one  immediately   following,
At the dinner, D.
Mcservc. toastmistress, will call on various
persons for speeches. Parodies and class
songs will be sung, and a skit to which the
whole college is invited will follow.
The Graduate fellowship dinner in Den-
bigh will be entertained by speeches given
by various graduates and members of the
Faculty.
The Fellowships to be announced are the
Bryn Mawr European Fellowship for study
at a foreign university, won last year by
Silva Thurlow, the President's Fellowship
for students who have completed one year
long time, probably for two reasons. The
first is that the particles are charged and
repel each other; the second, that a thitT
layer of air condenses around them and
prevents them from touching. When a
stream of charged sand is directed, from
an aeroplane, at an oppositely charged
cloud, the sand goes through, and the
Kvater condenses to form rain. If fog!
along the ground have the same compost-
tion as clouds, they can be dispersed by
this method, and the amount of, sand re-
quired would be comparatively small.

was awarded in 1922 to Helen Frances

Miss Elizabeth Lord '14, will speak on
"Opportunities for Psychologists," .at a
date which will be announced later. Miss

in which the water particles arc surrounded
by oil, and the dark colored fogs common
to London, which are mostly smoke. Th.'
reason for their stability is probably the
same as for clouds and the charged-sand
method would prove  effective.
A method similar to this, Dr. Crenshaw
concluded, has been successfully employed
by Cotrell to condense the smoke in fac-
tory chimneys.
Speaking on Dramatic art and the quali-
fications of an actor to a crowded Chapel
for two and a half hours, on Monday
afternoon, Mr. Richard Bolcslawski, of the
Moscow Art Theatre, said that an actor
must seek the three-fold development of,
intellect, soul and body. Mr. Bolcslawski
delivered the lecture in Russian with his
secretary, Mr. Michael Barroy, translating
it sentence by sentence for the benefit of
his   audience.                                                       "
Mr. Bolcslawski opened his lecture with
a full definition of art. "People generally
classify art" he said, "into two parts, play
art and true art. Play art includes clothes,
furniture, and other practical objects. True
arc, which includes painting, music, theatre,
exists for one purpose, to give delight.
This, however, is a Talse division, art can-
not be divided, in itself, for pure art is
both beautiful and useful. There is such .
a lack of pure art among men that we are
always longing and striving for it. This
peculiarity of man, this striving toward
beauty, is the beginning of the divine, and.
distinguishes man from other two-footed
animals.
"In order to exist," explained Mr. Bolcs-
lawski. "each art requires two things, a
creator and material. There will be no
lack of the former during the existence of .
man himself Man. however, sometimes
nccomes afraid that he may lack material.
To insure himself against this loss, man
declared that he himself would be the ma-
terial, that he alone was sufficient, and in
joy at bis own resources he started to dance
and sing. Thus the theatre rose, and, since
its birth, it has become almost a chronic
illness of mankind. It is the only art which
is of all, and for all, the joy of kings and
of paupers, of good and wicked."
The theatre cannot be suppressed by any-
thing, according to Mr. Boleslawski, even
by mercenary producers or by foolish ama-
teurs. Producers arc dangerous because
of their ignorance, while the saying that
"Fools rush in where angels fear to tread,"*;
is applicable to those amateurs who try to
stage, after a few rehearsals, one of the
world's great masterpieces.

Clrfra   Gehring   Plays  "Moonlight,*
By  Debussy
Informal music at Wyndham last Mon-
day night was distinguished by the playinu
of the Chance Trio, of Radnor, in addi-
tion to local talent and choral singing.
Clara Gehring, '25, gave a solo, "Moon-
light," by Debussy. The Misses Chance
and Miss Hodge then played part of a
very beautiful "Trio" by Devorchat, the
author of, the "New World Symphony."
After the audience had enthusiastically
attempted to sing parts of Brahm's
"Requiem," they played again, a short
negro melody arranged by Coleridge
Taylor.
The   Trio  will   come   again   next   week,
will   be   tried
again.
