Yale Instructor Applies the

Football and the classics are being
combined in the course Of Greek at

the Philadelphia Press. Nearly hum
dred poems recently written in Homer
ic verse on the subject of the Yale
Harvard football game were presented
by members Of DR.. II b. Wrights
Greek classes
The poems are closely modelled on
The "Iliad. and special attention 10 the

Of the students. Instead, however, Of
references to swift footed Achilles
and Ajax, who bore his shield like a
tower, ii was "Roraback with his
back sloped like a mountain" and long
headed, red headed Rockwell
The poems were the result Of a plan
Of Dr II, i Wright, instructor in
Greek, to arouse the interest of the
students and to familiarize them with
the construction Of the epic verse. His
theory IS that the game of football
arouses the same feeling Of intense
enthusiasm lib tile modern youth that
the events described in tile "Iliad aud
the odyssey inspired III the men of
former times. Accordingly he made an
offer OF extra credit TO members Of his
classes who would present poems, along
the lines laid down. The general and
enthusiastic response, he says. con-
firms him ii his theory
The offer was made after he had
tried vainly 10 interest his classes in

the necessities Of life. through being
tied down to home and the lack Of ac-
Cuaintances have little opportunity for
social pleasures Is contemplated serl-
ously By their nelghbors, who already
have a well established organization,
says the Chicago Record Herald.
Finding no poverty in the north
shore community, the members Of the
Ravenswood Womens club sought
some way in which their organization
could DO good It was found that many
women in the vicinity were in need Of
companionship. something to widen
their horizon. hitherto confined to the
narrow limitations Of home. These it
is planned TO benefit in every way pos
sible.
The subject was discussed at length
at a recent meeting of the Women's
club held in the clubhouse. 1t is pro-
posed to allow the new club the use Of
the Ravenswood clubs rooms at spe-
Gifted times and to repeat the pro-
grammes Of the older organization for
the benefit OF the women who are be-
ginning their club life. Mrs Irving
Washington chairman OF the day.
named a committee Of five members
Of the Ravenswood Women's club to
investigate the field in Ravenswood
and look into the ACCESSIBILITY Of form
ing such club
The idea originated from remarks
by Mrs. John McAulih, who said: II
know two or three women in Ravens
wood who are not starving for ma
terial things, but yet have not enough
money to secure anything beyond a
bare existence. They are lonely. They
are suffering for companionship and
sympathy. You have heard the story
of the old lady who, when given q
Thanksgiving dinner in a basket, sat
down and cried, saying, Tt wasn't food
wanted but folks
Mrs. Mary ~ Belts president OF
the Ravenswood Women's club, adj
dressed the chair and said, Il make Il
motion that a club among these wo-
men be formed BY our club and that
we mother it. send speakers to 1t and
see if we can't help it.
II am not fond Of this mothering
business" declared Mrs Irving Wash
ington. 1T does not show the right
democratic spirit don't propose to
mother it any more than to originate
it. We want a club here where lone
ly women can come. We want it TO be
club where the women can bring
with them the child or even a dozen
children who cannot be left at home
alone"
The motion was modified to provide
for the appointment Of committee Of
five to Investigate and report plans and
was carried.
