fMERE MAN IS BARRED

THOSE dear Barnard girls are cutting
Up again this afternoon with mere man
on the outside Of the fast and inviolate
portals OF Brinkerhoff Theatre. Not
even the faculty, at least, not that aus
tere and frowning fraction OF the faculty

" course there will be nothing In this
afternoons cut.up that the trousered
faculty. members could not see without
the, .iantest roseate pink tinge. There
never was anything like that in or ont
OF Brtnkerhoof Theatre 50 far as the
barnard girls are concerned. Barnard
as every one knows, has got the essence
OF dignity boiled down TO a thick svrup
one drop OF which placed on the tin Of
the tongue would transmOgrIfy the most
incoFrgible hoyden In Chrlstendom or
Heathendom into a block OF ice.crusted
marble.
Why It's mot a Show"
To-day's AFFAIR consisted, so far as we
are permitted to know. OF n highly cul-
tured and dignitled entcrt ainment billed
as Not SHOW" The freshmen are the
entertainers and as the faculty rules
do not permit them TO give anything In
the nature OF "a show they naively
ana ingcnuousy slip It over on the
faculty by calling their stunt mot
Show" Pretty cute, oh?
Slxty-sx undergraduates will take
part In five separate STUNTS that go to
make up Not a SHOW" The first will
he dance OF the classes. Tie seniors
will wear n cap and gown and dance to
The strains Of l.ohengrins Wedding
