Like a lot of the women I know, I am a fan of burlesque shows. It's interesting. Ask most women if they would like to go see burlesque and, most likely, they will jump at the chance. Ask if they want to go and watch another type of 'exotic' dancer, and the reaction is rarely as enthusiastic.

The College News Volume IV. No. 11 BRYN MAWR, PA., DECEMBER 19. 1917 Price 5 Cents MAJOR BEITH AND LIEUTENANT MacQUARRIE ENTERTAINED BY HISTORY CLUB f�V Major Ian Hay Heith and Lieutenant MacQuarrie were the guests of honor at a History Club reception In Pembroke East after Major Belth's lecture Satur- day night. They dined in Pembroke with members of the History Club before the lecture. The guests at dinner passed their place cards to the head of the table to receive the signatures of the two officers and during the reception Major Beith was beset by owners of his books with re- quests to autograph them at a dollar a copy for the benefit of the Students Friendship Fund. P. Turle, '18. president of the Club, owns a copy of Lieutenant MacQuarrie's How to Live at the Front, with the author's autograph and the inscription, "In memory of the battle of Bryn Mawr." PLAN THREE PERFORMANCES OF VARSITY PLAY IN CLOISTERS Undergraduate Committee to Confer On Oral Classes With the Faculty A rough estimate placing the probable proceeds of a Varsity play at $1500, was given by M. Martin '19 in a report of the Varsity Dramatics Committee before the Undergraduate Association, Monday. Any dramatics given would be in the cloisters, where the cost of production, according to Miss Martin, would be about $1200 and the receipts $900 an evening. By having three performances a balance could be netted for Bryn Mawr war work. Plays suggested by the committee were Shaw's Caesar and Cleopatra, Josephine Peabody's Piper, and Dunsany's God* of the Mountains. Action on the matter was postponed till definite figures could be secured on the cost of coaching. The question of Oral Classes, it was Toted, should be discussed with the Fac- ulty through the Conference Committee of the Undergraduate Association. G. Woodbury, president of the Class of 1919, told of the conference of the Junior and Sophomore committees with President Thomas. Oral classes could not be abol- ished entirely, she reported, nor could the college afford to give them free. An assessment of ten cents a head was decided upon by the Association to meet current expenses. COLLEGE EQUAL SUFFRAGE LEAGUE DISBANDS, HAVING ACHIEVED END B. M. Club Represented by M. Martin A vote to disband followed a recom- mendation from President Thomas, presi- dent of the College Women's Equal Suf- frage Association, at a meeting of the as- sociation last Saturday In Washington. The Bryn Mawr Suffrage Club was repre- sented by M. Martin '19. who was also a delegate (from Massachusetts) to the National Convention. President Thomas pointed out that the College Equal Suffrage Association had accomplished its mission of making suf- frage for college women respectable, and offered to assume its debts, amounting to a little over $7000. College suffrage clubs will henceforth be affiliated with the na- tional organization, either directly or through their States. At a college luncheon Saturday after- noon in the ballroom of the New Ibbet House. Dr. Anna Howard Shaw was the guest of honor, and President Thomas. (Continued on page 5. column 4.) MAJOR BEITH'S OPTIMISM MORE SERIOUS THAN LAST YEAR British Hold Nearly Half German Army Massed on Belgian Front More soldier than novelist in bis ad- dress on the "Progress of the War," Saturday evening in the gymnasium, Major Beith (Ian Hay) discussed less the human side of trench warfare than the strategic aspect of the present situation. Miltary snapshots, some of which Major Beith himself took, were shown. The lecture, under the auspices of the His- tory Club, netted over $600 for English war charities. "If we can merely hold our own for the next three months and allow the enemy to waste his troops on the western front, it will be one of the greatest victories of the war," declared Major Beith with quiet optimism. "The withdrawal of German troops from Russia for concentration against the British in Belgium is mani- festly to the Allies' advantage, as on the western front the facilities for their de- struction are much greater than on the eastern front. � � � The recent drives against General Byng have been attended with enormous German losses which will Increase with the winter snows. "The capture of a narrow strip of land along the North Sea would mean access to Ostend and Zeebrugge, the German submarine bases. The enemy, realizing this, has massed his troops here 5,000 men to the mile (as against 300 in Al- sace), so that the British, on less than a fourth of the entire line, are holding out against 48 per cent, of the German army." Weather Pro-German The weather last summer Major Beith characterized as consistently pro-German. With a very little luck, the speaker de- clared, and a little less mud, General Haig would easily have been in Ostend. Never- theless, he went on, the spirit of the men is undaunted. They are back on the his- toric ground where, in the first battle of Ypres, cooks, wagon drivers, a ragged line of odds and ends, flung themselves down In front of their artillery and smashed the Prussian Guard. If it had not been for this small expeditionary forte who went out and sacrificed them- selves to give the old country behind it time to wake up, the Germans would have got to the channel ports on the North Sea, Major Beith pointed out. As it is, England has transported four mil- lion troops over the channel without the loss of a single life. Major Beith described the battle of the Somme as the set ting-in of the ebbtide of the German invasion, just as the battle of the Marne represented the high-water mark. Whether the amateur armies raised and equipped in less than two years, were a match for the grim, ma- chine-made, Iron-bound army waiting for them on the "ridge over there," which had been waiting for forty years, was the question they had to answer, he said. "It is the same question which, at no very far away time, your troops will have to an- swer." Lantern slides of the battlefield showed the shell holes which will probably pre- vent It from being ploughed for a genera tion. A photograph which Major Beith had taken from an underground trench showed a section of the Hlndenberg line, which the British Tommy, ignorantly thinking it a "common ordinary" line, had attacked and captured. ntinued on page 6, column J.) CHRI3TMAS PARTIES CELEBRATE ADVENT OF HOLIDAY 8EASON Merion and Pembroke Join Forces The combination of Merion and Pem- broke merrymakers last night in a joint party in the Pembroke dining-room was a new departure in the celebration of the annual Christmas parties. The Merion-Pembroke dance, managed by Z. Boynton, '20, included a freshman stunt and a dance competition, judged by a committee chosen from the four classes. 1921 also gave a stunt at the Denbigh party. In Radnor the festivities reached their climax at dinner with the bringing in of the Yule Log and the singing of Yule Log and Boar's Head choruses. Speeches en- livened the dinner, H. Zinsser, "20. being toast mistress, and G. Steele, '20, song mistress. In Rockefeller M. Nearing, '09, was toast mistress, and C. Hayman, '19, L. Williamson, '20, and L. Ward, '21, formed the committee on stunts and speeches. POSITIONS OPEN IN ELECTRIC COMPANY TO BE EXPLAINED Series of Vocational Talks�Plan of Registration Department The first of a possible series of voca- tional lectures will be given by Mr. Her- bert Eglin, second vice-president of the Philadelphia Electric Company, who will speak here In January under the aus- pices of the Registration Department of the War Council. His subject will be positions in the Philadelphia Electric Company which are open to college women, graduates and upper classmen, both trained and untrained. The positions offered were formerly held by men now In the government serv- ice and constitute whole-time work. Sci- entific training is required for some: others involve clerical work for which a general training is sufficient. Positions for next summer are open. Mr. Eglin was secured through the War Council as the result of a letter written by him to Dr. Barnes, Professor of Physics, telling of the opportunities in his company for college women. In co-operation with Dean Taft, head of the Appointment Bureau, the Regis- tration Department hopes to secure other speakers on the specific positions now actually open to women. SERVICE CORPS' UNANIMOUS DECISION OF MASS MEETING AND WAR C0NNC1L Alumnae Committee Assures Coopera- tion With The American Red Cross A service corps of Bryn Mawr workers abroad, instead of n reconstruction unit or a Y. M. ('. A. hut, was the unanimous ve>dlct of the mass meetinK last Mon.lay evening. $10,000 before June was the goal set for the college and $20,000 was unofficially decided for the alumnre.

As we will be combining Stock Car & Hula-X racers in the same pit area, the rules of "No one under the age of 13" will apply to everyone this Sunday.
Also, Pit Pass wristbands will be sold for $5 to all interested that's 13 years & older.
For those who have keikis, that is under the age of 13, that race or participate in the Keiki Exhibition Motorcross, there will be a separate designated area that you will be allowed to stage their bikes/quads, outside of the pits and near the spectator area. When it becomes your child's turn to go onto the track, they will meet you in this designated area, where you will accompany them onto the race track. After they are done, you will accompany your child back to the designated area, where you will be able to leave their bike/quad and they would return back to the spectator area.
This will be enforced for the explicit safety of your child and we greatly appreciate your cooperation.

Signs of progress for the Mississippi River Delta
Long before the 2010 BP oil spill, the Mississippi River Delta was hurting.
The delta's vast wetlands have been eroding for decades, exposing New Orleans and coastal communities to hurricanes and oil spills. The land loss is mostly caused by oil and gas canals and levees along the Mississippi River, which deprive the delta of water and sediment to replenish wetlands.
The disappearing coastline also endangers a $23 billion fishing industry, the nation's most significant port complex, key oil and gas infrastructure, and habitat for tens of millions of migrating birds.
EDF and many other groups knew action was urgently needed. The oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico only worsened the problem. But where would the money come from?
Now there is good news. More than four years after the oil disaster, a stream of money for restoring the Gulf has begun flowing in. EDF and our coalition partners have been fiercely engaged from the start to see that BP is held fully accountable for its role in the oil disaster and that penalties from the spill go primarily for Gulf restoration.
Push for restoration shows results
The sources of revenue include $2.54 billion from the BP criminal settlement and an initial $800 million from a civil settlement with Transocean, the owner and operator of the oil rig that exploded and set off the disaster.
Also, BP is releasing $370 million for coastal Louisiana restoration, out of the $1 billion pledged to kick-start restoration across the Gulf.
Fighting for restitution
In 2010, when the BP oil spill occurred, EDF and our conservation partners sensed a key opportunity to launch a restoration plan, which we had worked toward for decades.
- We helped draft legislation that directs the majority of funds from oil spill penalties — which will number in the billions of dollars — to restore vanishing wetlands and create jobs.
- We helped shape Louisiana's 2012 Coastal Master Plan, based on rigorous science with input from a diverse team of stakeholders. The plan will serve as the guiding document for the restoration.
- We used science to show how major players — including unlikely partners such as the oil industry — stand to benefit from restoration.
- We then formed a larger group of partnerships to help keep up momentum for change.

The result? The passage of the RESTORE Act in June 2012 — marking a major turning point for the Gulf Coast environment and economy.
'Without these partners, restoration wouldn't be possible'
To get RESTORE off the ground, EDF gathered support from the restaurant industry, the shipping and construction industries, and oystermen and other powerful groups that could derail our vision if their interests were not accounted for.
"We found the right business voices. Without these partners, restoration wouldn't be possible," explained EDF senior counsel James Tripp, who has been working in the Gulf for 40 years.
Job creation was critical
While wetland restoration was key, so was helping local communities. Partnering with Duke University, we circulated studies showing that environmental restoration would create jobs in a myriad of sectors nationwide.
Restoring an ecosystem — such as the Gulf Coast — not only creates new restoration-related jobs, but also protects fishing and tourism jobs, as well as jobs linked to critical infrastructure such as shipping, oil and gas and railways that all rely on coastal wetlands for natural storm protection.
We gathered bipartisan support
With the right partners in place backing us, EDF helped shape a bill in Washington that dedicated 80% of oil spill fines to wetlands restoration and economic recovery instead of to the general federal budget.
EDF bridged the differences between political parties by introducing provisions that were important to both Republicans and Democrats, then built consensus among the five Gulf states: Alabama, Florida, Louisiana, Mississippi and Texas. In the end, the RESTORE Act passed with a strong bipartisan majority.
The next steps
Guiding the restoration of Louisiana's coastline is the state's master plan, which balances the use of natural processes to rebuild wetlands with traditional engineering and flood protection projects, including levee construction and home elevation. EDF's former coastal scientist, Dr. Angelina Freeman, co-managed a team of scientists and engineers that showed how reconnecting the Mississippi River to its natural floodplain would rebuild wetlands.
Once large-scale restoration begins, the next step is to ensure the most environmentally beneficial projects are green-lighted. Already money is being funneled toward rebuilding four barrier islands that will buffer storm surge and provide vital habitat for birds, as well as to smaller projects, including research.
Science can make us much better leaders, if we would just listen to our scientists and to the actual research.

Holding BP accountable
Still, a long road lies ahead to full restitution. In 2013, BP squared off with the government and other claimants in court over its role in the Gulf oil disaster, facing additional civil fines of up to $17.4 billion. The third and final phase of trial is in early 2015.
"There won't be justice for the Gulf until the case against BP is resolved and the billions in fines can begin flowing in," says Steve Cochran, director of our Mississippi River Delta work.
EDF's expertise in the region proved invaluable as we put together recommendations to restore the Gulf Coast.

Our unique approach
We combine core strategies of sound science, economic incentives, unlikely partnerships, and nonpartisan policy.

Sunday in Pittsburgh
Wow! It's hard to believe it's been almost a year since a small group of us (Zoom, Clara, Barbara and myself) met last year for our little Sunday in Pittsburgh gathering....We need to do it again and this time, more often....
So any ideas? I thought a Mass, lunch, and then go somewhere to sightsee/tour was perfect! Last year we hung out in Oakland - Mass at St. Paul's Cathedral, lunch at Panera, and then headed over to Phipps Conversatory and took lots of pictures! It was a beautiful spring day, the sun was shining too!
I would love to go to some museums and other places of interest...I haven't been to the Aviary since I was a kid! Oh my, so much to do!!!!
Let's get some ideas rolling and get together again!!!!

A view from across the pond – Colleen Carroll
Colleen Carroll is a pint sized bombshell from the US who joined North Kiteboarding last year. For those of you unfamiliar of her, don't let appearances fool you, she rides hard! Often found hanging out at cable parks around the world honing her skills on the features, she dominated at the Triple S last year and is on a mission to do the same again this year. We caught up with Colleen to find out what she's been up to and what her take on kiteboarding from 'across the pond' is.
"I've been travelling, kiting, spending lots of time at the cable park and in general loving life!
Seeing other people on the water pushing their riding really inspires me to go for harder tricks or to try out a new one. It also helps that our sport is so fun. I never have the feeling that I'm lacking motivation when I'm at a kite spot. If its windy and the water looks nice, I'm in!"
When asked how she sees the progression of the female side of the sport, she say's; "progression is kicking ass these days! In the last year I've seen and met many female riders who are really pushing their personal limits as well as those of women's kiteboarding as a whole. I'm curious as to when we'll see the first double pass landed..."
As a Team Rider it is always interesting to get an 'insiders' perspective on the North Range and more specifically for women and Colleen's style of riding: "Firstly the North Kiteboarding range is huge. There is definitely something for everybody in there whether it's sliders, freestyle, speed, hang-time, or waves. Whatever fuels your fire. More specifically, the North range offers the perfect setup for me and I think any girl can find what she needs. The performance, safety, and durability are all time on the North kites so I don't really know what more you could ask for! My perfect set up is a 9m Vegas on 22 meter lines with 136 Gambler and North Kiteboarding boots. Also need my ION sol harness and of course a lovely Sensi Graves bikini. If the wind is a smooth 20kts, the water butter flat, and there is a feature to session, I am in utter heaven!"
A well known rider on the American Kite scene she has never made it across the pond to test out some of Europe's hotspots, but she is adamant that she will be making the trip this summer. Inquisitive to find out how she felt about riding for a European brand and whether it has influenced her view on the sport, she said: " Our first kites as a family were North kites and the brand has always had such a strong presence in the Hood River/Seattle kite spots that I guess I've never really felt it was foreign. However, working more closely with a European brand, it has shown me how much bigger and more mature the industry is 'across the pond."
Looking to the future, she admits that it is best to be flexible when trying to make plans materialise, but that a trip to Europe is on the cards and that her main goal and sights are set on the Triple S Invitational, Cape Hatteras. "I was really lucky last year and came out on top. I have a feeling I'll see even more competition this year on the girls side so I'm feeling a bit of pressure to up my game." And up her game she did!
Colleen was crowned the women's Triple S Champion 2014. Never taking her eyes of the prize she dominated the field securing a 1st in Slicks and Sliders, and 3rd in the Surf putting her 1st Overall. Her performance in the Slicks was solid, with two clean runs and stomping technical moves such as Back to Wrapped. A day in the Surf saw her dialling some stylish grabs and unhooked moves off the kickers, scoring well with the judges. In the Slider discipline, she cruised through the heats with clean hits across the park. A stylish front side 180 tail press to blind across the flat bar put her in the Finals. She said;
"All of the girls were riding really solid and it was made even more intense having mixed heats and riding with the boys. I'm incredibly happy that I advanced through to the Finals with the North boys."

The Dream Team of the future. Aaron Hadlow joins North Kiteboarding!
He is one of Kiteboarding' s most prestigious riders, 5 x World Champion and an inspiration to kiteboarders across the globe with his sheer style, ruthless technicality and British persona. The name has been seen on kites since 2008, boards since 2004 and he was landing double handle passes over 10 years ago. Bringing years of experience in product development, we are proud to announce that Aaron Hadlow has joined the North Kiteboarding Team.
At just 25 years old, Hadlow's kiteboarding career has been exceptional throughout. Forever advancing at a pace that left the rest of the PKRA competition fleet behind, Aaron has carved a name for himself deep into the kiteboarding industry. Having managed his own brand within Flexifoil for years, he speaks about how he is excited to be part of a team after a longtime being responsible for everything from product development and marketing, all the while trying to find time to train and travel on the PKRA tour.
Hadlow joins North Kiteboarding not only as a rider and Team member, but will be involved heavily in R&D. Between his extensive knowledge and time on the water, teamed with North Kiteboarding's product development and setup, it's as if the 'Dream Team' has finally joined forces and it's more that he could have ever imagined.
I'm excited about joining North Kiteboarding and it's great to be supported by such a knowledgeable and experienced team. It's obviously a massive step for me, but I feel that this partnership has a lot of synergy and potential."
So what's next? Hadlow joins a Team of life long friends such as Jaime Herraiz and Tom Court, so you can expect some great videos from Tom and Aaron as the work and travel together. North Kiteboarding also has PKRA riders Mario, Stefan and Reno to offer up some in-house healthy rivalry on the tour. And finally, next month Aaron will be headed to Hood River with the other Vegas riders for his first Team shoot, so stay tuned on how that goes.
Welcome to North Kiteboarding Aaron Hadlow!

If all of you didn't know before, I'm a cunty, black mermaid who parties throughout the eve with all of her sea bitches, and then walks the earth as a white male during the day. I expect that all of you will understand my predicament as a member of mermaidian society marooned in human society and treat me as an equal. This is of course despite the fact that my status as a cunty mermaid puts all of you as inferior to myself.
I honestly have zero idea about what in the flying fuck I'm writing about. I would like to point out that I coined the term seaweave though.

What is the Wish List and how does it work?
For American Girl fans we've created an online wish list that can be sent via e-mail. It's a great way to help you keep track of American Girl e-store items you'd love to have -- but have to ask for! We think this is an especially good way for fans under age 18 to enjoy the shopping experience at the American Girl e-store. As you browse through the e-store, you can add whatever you like to your Wish List. Instead of clicking "Put this in my shopping bag" to purchase the item, just click "Add to wish list." To view the items on your list, click "wish list". You can print your Wish List or e-mail it to someone whose e-mail address you know. When you are done adding items to your Wish List, click "Save wish list."

The Wish Lists are stored for 30 days on our site and may be accessed by entering the Wish List code. The Wish List code is also included in the Wish List e-mail. You can automatically transfer items from your Wish List to your shopping bag. If you are actually shopping, please make sure to place items in the shopping bag rather than on a Wish List.

We had a lot of participants this year, which made it pretty interesting.
Next year we'll change it up a little bit in the way everyone submits their picks so there is a lot less work for me to do on the spreadsheet.
I'll be finishing up the renovations in the LGB Store in the coming days, so keep an eye out for that.

Oh well, I still won at the sportsbook...The penguins to win in 7 after the loss in game one the odds were 7-1 so i bet a hundred on them to win in 7 and sure enough it happened. This is pretty sweet....Curt if you could let me know the process of getting the shirt and such whenever that time comes that is great.
Technically since you cant participate , Do i get a custom sig declaring me the "technicality" winner of the contest?...lol

Bought the previous model in white...finally found a black version at (1/4 of original price)a great clearance price!
Paulg from St. Louis, MO | 9/25/2014 8:05 AM
In my opinion this is one of the best shoes FJ ever made. Have had two pair (white & black) since 2013 and bought a third pair to have in reserve since this model is no longer being made by FJ. This model is very comfortable, provides excellent support and has shown little wear from a golfer that plays 100 plus rounds per year. Get a pair while you still can.
DBush from Columbus, OH | 9/25/2014 7:37 AM
This shoe is very comfortable for walking the course and with a 2-year waterproof warranty, it's a home run! It looks good and performs very well with lots of stability. What more could you want from a golf shoe? Just what I've come to expect from Footjoy!
HenryW from St. Louis, MO | 9/11/2014 8:11 AM
This is my 5th pair of FJ Sport and I really will miss it since it seems discontinued. These shoes fit my foot well and are, by far, the most comfortable fully spiked golf shoe for me. My Sports have walked courses all over the world and I expect to wear these out doing the same. Still a great shoe for my foot.
Ptgolfer from Raleigh, NC | 6/26/2014 7:50 AM
Good shoe, best for "cart golf". Would not like to walk 18 holes in these shoes, just not as light, flexible, or comfortable as my Adizeros

Butler borrows the best of both worlds. When I was looking at various universities my senior year of high school, I was intrigued by Butler's innate ability to exist within a large city (only 15 minutes from Indianapolis' downtown) yet remain its own entity. The campus does not exist on city street corners.
Simultaneously remote and integrated. Last Saturday my friends took advantage of this and visited the Circle Centre Mall, stepping out of the "Butler Bubble," as it is termed in the area, and entering into the world of fashionable, dimly lit, cologne suffused, and techno pumping stores.
The night ended as a rousing time, full of jokes and memories (ie why did we even walk into that store? I couldn't breathe). But it won't end there. Being in Indy opens us to countless options, quite importantly the Lucas Oil Stadium. Super Bowl here we come!

AUBURN, Ala. – The Auburn University College of Veterinary Medicine will be teaming up with international rabies experts to celebrate World Rabies Day on September 28. Founded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) and the Alliance for Rabies Control, a UK charity, the World Rabies Day initiative aims to bring together relevant partners in an effort to address rabies prevention and control. "This is a coordinated effort to let the world know that this disease can be readily prevented through education, pet vaccination and increased human awareness as to proper wound management and administration of rabies vaccination after an exposure has occurred," said Dr. Deborah Briggs, executive director for the Alliance for Rabies Control. In the United States, the greatest achievement in rabies control and prevention occurred half-a-century ago with effective implementation of dog vaccination, licensing and stray dog control. "We cannot let our guard down with rabies," said Dr. James Wright, a professor in Auburn's Department of Pathobiology, and a diplomate of the American College of Veterinary Preventive Medicine. "Rabies is ever-present in wildlife which can expose our pets and possibly our family members." It is estimated that every year 30,000-40,000 U.S. residents are potentially exposed to rabies requiring human rabies post-exposure prophylaxis. According to the Alabama Department of Public Health (ADPH), annual rabies exposures and the number of animals testing positive remain relatively consistent. ADPH usually reports between 80-100 positive cases tested per year that have exposed either humans or other animals. The vast majority of these cases are in raccoons and bats, but they also include other wildlife species such as foxes and coyotes. Rabies in wildlife remains the main source of exposure for pets and other domestic animals, which can then be a risk to humans. Keeping pets, including cats, dogs and ferrets current on rabies vaccinations is vital in protecting humans and animals. "Rabies prevention starts with the animal owner," Dr. Wright said. "We recommend that people vaccinate dogs, cats, ferrets and any other animal that has regular contact with humans." In the Southeast where rabies is common in raccoons and bats, vaccination of valuable livestock, horses, cattle, sheep, and goats, is also a wise strategy. Additional information is available online at worldrabiesday.org/.
