Youshould be taking a woman's work andfighting for a woman's place in thecommunity." •lliss Grim's speech was receivedwith amazement by her audience.The men openly laughed, while someof the women, especially the Fresh­men, were cowed, and others lookedat each other and giggled. Just howheartily lliss Grim's views were en­dorsed by the women is not known.A fter her lecture she passed out mem­bership cards in the Equal Suffrageleague, but it is not known how manycards were signed.:\Ii"s Grim also told her audiencethat if the women really wanted. theycould "clean up things." She told ofthe difference in the spirit of thepresent age and that of feudalism, anddeclared that the change demandedtbt the ballot be given the women.

Mr. The­odore' Stanton. a renowned writer,said recently In an article for theNorth American Review:"The question of. establishingschools of journalism in -our univer­sities has often been mooted and eventried. But most of these attemptshave died or arc withering, the theo­retical killing the practical. which isthe soul of journalism... But the undergraduates of all ouruniversities and even our best highsch-ools, with the wonderful initiativeof the American youth, have solvedfor themselves the prohlf'm, whiletheir e-l�ers have been deliberatingover it. No board of trustees orfaculty could have produced a betterschool of journalism than the 'Cor­nell Daily Sun,' a perfect triumph. itseems to be, of the -student activities."The only wonder to me is thatthe English departments of our uni­versities do not more fully utilizethese student publications, associatethem more closely with the class. room work, and. in fact, base themore practical side of the instructionon such excellent foundations. Butperhaps this is too much to ask ofthe pedagogic spirit which so often.. prevails even in our American facul-ties." •Thus it is that the undergraduateshave solved the problem for them­selves in a measure. They have in­stituted a plan by which they are ableto get a certain amount of trainingin practical journalism. But this isinadequate. A broader training shouldbe available and should reach a great­er number of men.

He willleave for Fayetteville Wednesday totryout the suggestions of the rulescommittee which met in Xew Yorkrecently, and of which he is a mem­ber. He will be assisted in this workby Hugo Bezdek, the athletic coachand former :\laroon star, and byPresident John \V. Tillman of theuniversity, b�th of whom are inter­ested in football reform.Just before the rules committee ad­journed in .!\ ew York on February5 it apointed a subcommittee to con­sider three plans of football organi­zation. On this committee were A..\. Stagg. Dr. W. L. Dudley, Vander­bilt university, and' O. A. Savage,Oberlin, O. The recommendations ofthis subcommittee will be passed onby the rules committee when it re­convenes March 25.Teams Drilled in New Rules.When Coach Stagg returned fromthis meeting he wrote to Coach Bez­dek at Arkansas, telling him to organ­ize two football teams and to drillthem along certain lines so as to suitseveral sets of signals. This has beendone and it is proposed to take thesetwo teams and with them test theproposed new rules and find exactlyhow they work out in an actual game.The teams will play three or fourgames while Coach Stagg is there,and the three plans which were putbefore the committee for football re­form will be tried. Each team willuse fifteen plays, which will. put intowork the new ideas. The first planembodies eight changes of play, thesecond, four, and the third, four.Whether anyone of these plans willbe sufficient for the proposed reformsor whether different parts of themcan only be used, it is thought willbe shown up in this experiment.Among other things tried in thefirst plan will be the rule of no push­ing or pulling of the man with theball; also the recommendation for theprohibition of diving tackles. Thesediving tackles are consjdered by manyof the reformers as being .the mostdangerous plays in the game. Endsgoing down the field not to be body­checked will be tried; also the tack­ling of a man handling a punt. Thislatter rule forbids players to ap­proach nearer than five yards to thecatcher of � punt until he has touchedthe ball, and then not to tackle himor charge forward unless he startsto run with the ball.AD Reforms on TriaLOther important revisions in thefirst plan are the one to eliminate theon side kick, and that the forward passbe allowed over any part of the lineto mcn on ends of the line or behindthe line when the ball is put in play.One of thc important changes em­bodied in the second plan is that sev­en men be on thc line of offense, andthat three of the backs be at leastfour yards in the rear of the line.This would eliminate the tandem playperfected by Harvard. Another rulein this plan i!' that the forward passbe made and caught only by playersstanding behind the line when theball is put in play.

This letteris on the French drama. of whichClark is making a special study inconnection with his work in Paris.He writes as follows:"The French nation is doubtless themost theatrical by temperament of anyon earth. The depth and permanenceof this trait arc manifested by thefact that from the very birth of itsdrama it has produced an almost un­broken line of good plays and corre­spondingly good actors. from the"Cleopatre" of Jodel1e to the "Chan­teeter" of Rostrand.

Hervien seemsto forget that =t play is meant pri­marily to be enjoyed. and that unlessit satisfies this demand it is not prop­erly a play."I have left little room for the oth­ers. It matters little. h .... wever. forl Icrvien is a type of the large major­ity of serious French dramatists.\Vith this new school. comedy pureand simple, as conceived by :Mutierein his early plays and Beaumarchaisin his best. has almost entirely givenv. ,I)" to the vaudeville, that it, a sortof farce. and by way of revolt thereis the romantic and poetic dramaCatulJe �Iendes, the late poet andcritic. wrote a number of poetic com­edies. Jean Richepin has attainednotable success in the realm of thefairy play. Maeterlinck has written anumber of poetical dramatized moods,let us say. He has written two rca 1plays. ':\Ionna Varma' and 'Pelleas etMe lisande.' but his is a lyrical andmystical. not to say misty talent.Then there is Rostand, above all apoet, author of the charming 'LesRomanesques' and the famous 'Cy­rano de Bergerac,' whose 'Chantecler,'awaited for over two years. is aboutto be presented. I t is said that thisplay, in which all the characters rep­resent barnyard fowls, will have muchto do with topics of present interest.If this happens to be the case, it willbe a notable departure from the poet'susage. which has heretofore been thatof the strictest attachment to the past,the romantic past.As to th·e future. it is impossible tosay. \ViU the stage go to the ex­treme of naturalism? It seems thatnaturalism has said its last word withTherese Racquin, Or will it becomeromantic? Zola said that the theaterof the future would become naturalis­tic or would not exist at all, but pres-. ent indications seem to point to some. sort of change. When Beethoven car­ried the music of Haydn and Mo­zart to its highest development Wag­ner exclaimed, 'Music can go no fur­ther,' and it didn't. 'Tristan undIsolde' appeared."POOR MEDICS LOSE AGAINDrop Game to Senior BasketballTeam, 12 to 10.The Medic basketball five continuedits race for the bottom of the ladderin the percentage standing in the in­tra-University contest by dropping itsthird straight game yesterday to theSenior. five in the last thirty secondsof play.

"At present the French stage isdominated by the 'drame these' or'problem play.' For the last half cen­tury it has undergone many changes.owing principally to foreign influence.the greatest part of which comes fromthe north, that is. from Gorky, Tol­stoy, Strindberg, Bjornson and. aboveall, Ibsen. But Ibsen. it must be re­membered. was in turn influenced bythree great Frenchmen-Scribe, thetechnician par excellence, from whomhe received invaluable structuralknowledge; Augier, and AlexandreDumas fils, among the originators ofthe modern 'problem play.' This factis not overlooked by French critics,who at times, however, overstep thebounds of truth in their laudable de­sire to claim everything as of Frenchorrgm. The great Norwegian pos­sessed such a dominant personalityand clear perception of society as itexisted that his influence has every­where. �ad lasting effects. He per­fected the 'problem play,' at the sametime bringing in new elements. Sogreat has been his influence that it issafe to say that few serious dramashave been written since his day with­out showing his methods. His fol­lowers, avowed or otherwise, may befound in all countries. Suffice it tocite in Italy d' Annunzio and Giacosa.in Spain Echegaray, in GermanyHauptmann and Sudermann, in Eng­lad Pinero, Jones and Shaw. inFrance. mentioning only the foremostof present-day writers, Hervien, Lave­dau, Lemaitre, Brieux, Bernstein,Bourget. Prevost, Donnay and Her­mant, These form but a fraction ofthe immense number of playwrightswhose works are worthy of consider­ation. All have in a more or less de­gree 'searched for truth' and attempt­ed to lay bare the workings of soci­ety. So general is the practice ofplaywriting that literary men of alltypes have tried their hand at it­Anatole France, Pierre Loti and Bour­get among others. Each· genre ofproblem play has its exponent; thereare expositions and portrayals ofcharacter as in the 'Bertrade' of JulesLemaitre; the dramatization of socialconditions, as in Bourget's latest play,'La Barricade;' the struggle of indi­viduality aganst the conventions ofsociety, to be found throughout theplays of Paul Hervien. Hervienstands in the front rank of Frenchdramatists as a technician and think­er. He is in reality a psychologist.thinking by means of the stage. Heis truly French in his passion forform, and each of his plays is a pat­tern of clarity and ingenuity of con­struction. His latest play, 'ConnaisToi,' deals with the everlasting prob­lem-a platitude in Plato's days-ofthe fallaciousness of man-and wom­an-when placed under circumstancesout of the ordinary. It might wenhe termed 'Yon Never Can Ten.'Here again we observe t"xanmt con- .'-n. � c.-... o.k iIIIIItDIed _ .. � .... ..,. �........ _ ...... "- __ eo """, __ ..
